About this product
Astragalus root is the dried root of Astragalus membranaceus, a plant with a long history in traditional Chinese herbal practice. It has a mild, slightly sweet, bean-like taste. This one is organic and kosher certified.
The root is usually simmered rather than steeped. Many people add a few pieces to a pot of soup, broth or congee while it cooks and remove them before serving, or simmer it on its own as a decoction. It is sold from the bulk section by weight, so you can buy a small amount to try. Keep it in a sealed jar in a cool, dry cupboard.
