Zheng Feng Codonopsis Pilosula 150g

A classic ingredient in Chinese herbal cuisine, Codonopsis root is prized for its gentle sweetness, earthy aroma and naturally mellow character. Carefully dried to preserve its flavour, Zheng Feng Codonopsis releases a soft, rounded depth when simmered slowly, enriching broths and soups with a comforting herbal warmth.
Often referred to as “Dang Shen”, it is traditionally used in Chinese cooking as a milder alternative to ginseng. Its delicate sweetness blends beautifully with chicken, pork, red dates and goji berries, creating nourishing soups that are deeply satisfying yet balanced in flavour.
After long simmering the root becomes tender while the broth develops a subtle herbal richness and clean finish. A staple in Chinese kitchens, it is widely used in tonic soups, slow-cooked broths and hot pot bases, adding depth and warmth without overpowering other ingredients.
