Premium Red Ginseng as a Snack  

[Ko Chul Nam] Korean Honeyed Sliced Red Ginseng

---

Today, we’re offering Ko Chal Nam’s Honeyed Red Ginseng Slices.

In Korea, these red ginseng slices are eaten as a health snack - it's called hongsam jeolpyeon (홍삼절편).

Locally-grown ginseng roots are first sliced into thin bite-sized pieces.

Then soaked in a honey mixture for 2 weeks.

(The honeying process turns the roots soft and tender - while reducing it's bitterness and astringent taste.)

Afterwards, the sticky ginseng slices are left to dry and then packaged.

Note: Ginseng is a “superfood” for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects - strengthening the immune system, fighting fatigue and enhancing brain function (among many other health benefits).

These honeyed ginseng slices are especially popular during Chuseok or Lunar New Years - as a gift to the elderly (and colleagues) in Korea.

If you’re looking for a thoughtful gift to give your parents or elders, consider Korean red ginseng slices!

1 Box contains 15 packets (individually packaged).
