The “Zhi Xue” (止血) family gathers leaves, flowers and rhizomes that the classical texts attach to this cohesion — matter often astringent, several of them used roasted after the old usage.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"armoise-de-chine-ai-ye","title":"Chinese mugwort - 艾叶 (Ai Ye)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe leaves of \u003cem\u003eArtemisia argyi\u003c\/em\u003e, Chinese mugwort, picked in spring before flowering, when the blade is still supple and covered with down. Once dried, they keep their deeply lobed outline: the upper face is greyish green, the underside covered with a silvery-white felting that makes them recognisable at first glance and gives them a two-toned look in the packet. The scent is aromatic, faintly camphorous, and the bitterness clear. Present in China for more than two thousand years, the pounded leaf colours and scents certain spring rice cakes; as an infusion, allow a small pinch to a cup of just-simmering water, five minutes, on its own or with ginger.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yi Shang Tang","offers":[{"title":"100 g","offer_id":53827592028499,"sku":"BQ-AI-YE-100G","price":6.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1067\/3343\/7267\/files\/ai-ye-cote-1.jpg?v=1784503408"},{"product_id":"racine-dimperata-bai-mao-gen","title":"Imperata root - 白茅根 (Bai Mao Gen)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe creeping rhizome of \u003cem\u003eImperata cylindrica\u003c\/em\u003e, a perennial grass found on almost every continent, known in English as cogon grass and considered invasive in several countries. The shallow rhizomes are lifted in spring or in autumn, washed with care — they run through sand and soil — stripped of their rootlets and their scales, then dried and cut into lengths. These are yellowish-white, glossy, grooved lengthwise, marked with regular nodes; they are light, hollow at the centre, and their airy pith crushes between two fingers. The taste is mild, subtly sweet, without bitterness, and the infusion stays very pale.
