About angelica root
Sliced or powdered angelica root, strongly aromatic with a celery-and-liquorice smell that carries through a whole pot. This pack is 200 g net. At the quantities below that is about 25 pots of soup. That works out at S$4.95 per 100 g.
Also known as dang gui, dong quai, angelica sinensis, 当归, chuan xiong, ligusticum.
What people use it for
One of the herbs in a dang gui chicken or mutton soup, and in the standard confinement soup packets. Used sparingly - it dominates.
How to prepare it
Two or three slices for a family pot, added at the start and simmered an hour.
Keeping it
Airtight. The aroma is the point and it fades in an open bag.
Questions people ask
