Fu Ling Pi is the outer skin of the same fungus we stock as Dried China Root (Fu Ling), and is classically combined with White Atractylodis Rhizome (Bai Zhu) and Dried Coix Seeds (Yi Yi Ren).
Inner Balance: Traditionally used in warm infusions believed to contribute to overall well-being.
Light and Mild: Often included in broths and teas for a gentle and neutral taste.
Commonly Used for Digestion: Frequently featured in traditional blends thought to aid digestive comfort.
Traditional Use: Fu Ling Pi has a long history in classic Chinese preparations, where the skin is used distinctly from the inner flesh.
Daily Vitality: Often consumed in various dishes, such as sweet poria cakes and soups.
We recommend around 10g per portion.
Simmer the skin in water for twenty to thirty minutes rather than steeping briefly, then strain. It has a mild, neutral character, so it is usually used alongside other ingredients rather than on its own. It can also be added to soups and broths at the start of cooking.
Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
