About Sahm Red Ginseng Baby Root
These are the thin fine roots (baby roots) of red ginseng — ginseng grown in Ontario, Canada, then steamed and dried. They are a single ingredient with nothing added, and their slim shape brews quickly with no slicing needed.
Each 3.5 oz (100 g) bag holds plenty for everyday tea and family-sized soups.
What's Inside
- Canadian Red Ginseng (Fine Roots)
- Ginseng grown in Ontario, Canada (Panax quinquefolius), steamed and dried into red ginseng. It naturally contains ginseng saponins (ginsenosides).
- 100% Pure — Nothing Added
- A single ingredient with no additives, sweeteners, colors, or preservatives — just dried red ginseng roots.
- Naturally Vegan & Caffeine-Free
- Made from ginseng root only, so it suits vegan and vegetarian cooking and contains no caffeine.
How to Use It
- Red ginseng tea: Bring 4 cups (about 1 L) of water to a boil, add about 2 oz (60 g) of roots, lower the heat, and simmer for up to 2 hours. Enjoy two to four times a day, and add honey if it tastes too bitter.
- Ginseng chicken soup: Simmer about 1.4 oz (40 g) of roots with half a chicken, 54 fl oz (1.6 L) of water, 10 dried red dates, and a pinch of salt.
- Drop a few roots into other broths or porridge, or steep a few in a thermos for a quick cup.
- After brewing, you can chew the softened roots. Store in a cool, dry place.
What Makes It Different
These are the fine tail roots of red ginseng — the same steamed, dried red ginseng as larger roots, just thinner and quicker to brew. There is no slicing, and they are an easy way to keep red ginseng on hand for daily tea.
The 3.5 oz (100 g) bag is resealable and sourced by Kosbee, shipped from our New Jersey warehouse, so you skip the long wait of overseas shipping.
Good to know: start with a small amount to see how you like it. If you are pregnant, nursing, or take blood sugar or blood-thinning medication, consult a healthcare professional before use.
