Product Overview
Du Zhong (Eucommia Bark) is a time-honored botanical deeply rooted in East Asian herbal traditions.
This salt-fried form (Yan Chao) follows a classical preparation method, where the bark is lightly treated with a salt solution and gently stir-fried — a technique widely used in traditional Chinese herbal kitchens.
Our Du Zhong is carefully sourced, cleaned, and low-temperature processed to maintain its natural aroma, color, and integrity, making it a classic ingredient for teas, decoctions, and traditional herbal soups.

Simmer 6–10 g of Du Zhong in 500–700 ml of water for 20–30 minutes.
