Also known as Chen Pi, Aged Peel, Aged Tangerine Peel
Fun fact: do you know that the 0.5 kg of aged citrus peel can cost up to SG$4,000 (~US$3,000) depending on its age and quality?
Other than being a herb in Chinese medicine to help with digestion and relieve nausea, aged citrus peels are also wonderful additions to soups, tea and desserts!
*It is not recommended to take this herb alone when you are feeling thirsty. If you have qi stagnation or phlegm-dampness constitution and feeling thirsty, consider pairing it with some foods that nourish yin such as Mai Dong (Dwarf lilyturf roots) or Yu Zhu (Angular solomon's seal roots）
