It uses Korean herbs (astragalus, angelica, jujube, cinnamon) measured to a traditional hanbang ratio, with Canadian ginseng and sweet rice, then packed and inspected in the USA. It is built to recreate the deep, rich samgyetang you would order at a Korean restaurant — at home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow do I cook samgyetang with this kit?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoak the sweet rice 30–60 minutes, stuff it with jujube and chestnut into a whole chicken, then simmer the chicken with the remaining herbs in plenty of water for 1 to 1.5 hours. Discard the woody herbs, season with salt and pepper, and serve. One kit makes one chicken.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes this kit contain allergens?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes — it contains tree nuts (chestnut), so avoid it if you have a tree-nut allergy. The woody herbs (astragalus, cinnamon, angelica) are for flavoring the broth only; lift them out before eating, do not chew them. If pregnant or nursing, consult your healthcare provider, as the kit includes ginseng and angelica.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow is this kit different from herb-only packs?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMost packs include only 50–100g of herbs, so you still have to buy and soak sweet rice separately. This is a 300g all-in-one kit with the sweet rice already included and portioned to a traditional ratio — just add a fresh chicken and cook.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eTurn your kitchen into a Korean restaurant tonight — just add chicken. \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/kosbee.com\/collections\/korean-herbs\"\u003eExplore More Korean Herbs at Kosbee\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"font-size: 0.8em; margin-top: 20px; color: #666;\"\u003e\u003ci\u003e*These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
