Meet the Two Ingredients

Astragalus Root · Huang Qi · 黄芪

Astragalus is a traditional botanical root commonly known in Chinese as Huang Qi / 黄芪.

The dried root is presented in pale slices with a naturally fibrous appearance, making the individual pieces easy to identify and portion.

Its character is relatively mild compared with stronger or more bitter botanical roots.

Flavour Character:
Mild · Earthy · Root-like · Gently sweet

Its approachable character makes sliced Astragalus an interesting introduction to traditional Chinese botanical roots.

Red Goji Berries · 枸杞

Red Goji Berries are recognizable dried fruits widely associated with Chinese culinary and botanical traditions.

Their bright red-orange colour and naturally fruity character create a vivid contrast with the pale Astragalus slices.

Presented as whole dried berries, their familiar shape, colour and texture remain easy to appreciate.

Flavour Character:
Gently sweet · Fruity · Mild · Familiar

Together, the two ingredients bring root and fruit into one simple, visually distinctive collection.

Astragalus vs. Goji Berry

Astragalus Root

• Traditional botanical root

• Pale dried slices

• Naturally fibrous appearance

• Mild and earthy

• Gently sweet root character

Red Goji Berry

• Dried fruit

• Bright red-orange berries

• Whole dried form

• Gently sweet and fruity

• Familiar and approachable

One is a root. The other is a fruit.

Together, they demonstrate two very different forms, colours and flavour characters found within a traditional Chinese botanical pantry.

Because they are separately packed rather than premixed, you can discover each ingredient individually.

How to Enjoy

Always follow the preparation directions provided on the product packaging or an appropriate recipe.

Because Astragalus Root and Goji Berries have different forms and characteristics, preparation amounts and times may vary.

Warm Botanical Preparation

Use the recommended amount of Astragalus Root, Goji Berries or both ingredients according to the product directions.

Prepare with hot water or gentle simmering according to the preparation method being followed.

Gentle Simmering

Astragalus Root can be incorporated into suitable gently simmered preparations.

Add Goji Berries when appropriate according to the recipe for a naturally fruity contrast.

Soups & Porridges

Astragalus and Goji may also be incorporated into suitable soups, porridges and traditional-inspired recipes.

Use either ingredient individually or combine them according to the recipe, number of portions and product guidance.

Enjoy Individually or Together

One of the advantages of this two-ingredient collection is its flexibility.

Explore Astragalus Root individually to experience its mild, earthy and gently sweet root character.

Enjoy Red Goji Berries individually for their familiar dried-fruit character and natural sweetness.

Or prepare Astragalus + Goji together when following an appropriate recipe designed for the combination.

Separate packaging allows you to decide how and when each ingredient becomes part of your preparation.

Pair with Tea

For tea lovers, this collection offers another way to explore botanical ingredients alongside familiar loose-leaf teas.

Appropriate recipes may include:

White Tea + Goji
A gentle tea base paired with the naturally fruity character of Red Goji Berries.

Green Tea + Goji
Fresh green-tea character with colourful dried berries.

Oolong + Goji
An aromatic tea foundation for exploring a fruit-and-tea pairing.

The ideal quantity, water temperature and preparation time will depend on the specific tea and recipe being followed.

It can sit naturally alongside green tea, white tea, oolong, dried flowers, fruits, roots and other ingredients in a thoughtfully curated home tea pantry.

Storage & Care

Keep both ingredients securely sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, moisture, excessive humidity and strong odours.

Use clean, dry utensils when handling the ingredients and reseal each container promptly after use.

Refer to the product packaging for the best-before date and any additional storage instructions.

Product Guidance
