Where Sheng Di Huang stays dry and bitter, Shu Di Huang is frankly sweet, almost candied, and melts into porridge or broth: it is by colour, by gloss and by sugar that the two are told apart.

The tree is grown in southern China and in Vietnam; the fruits are picked at full maturity, peeled, stoned, then dried at low temperature. The flesh then turns brown, supple, a little sticky, almost translucent against the light, and the sugar concentrates in it to the point of recalling raisin and flower honey.
