Methods of preparing Ginseng root | |
Slice or chop whole root |

Steam root in a small baggie with a couple drops of water to soften enough to slice; chew well and swallow. (One daily portion is the size of a small peanut) | |
Make Ginseng Tea |
|
Put 0.5 - 3 grams of root in a cup of 200 ml (7 oz) of boiling water. Steep for 10 minutes for the first serving. Steeping can be repeated as many as 3 times, always allowing the 10 minute brewing time. The tea may be served with cream, sugar, honey or juice. | |
Make Ginseng Powder |

Grind the root to a powder. Add 1/3 teaspoon of the ground Ginseng to a cup of tea or coffee once or twice a day. Drink the liquid and eat the residue to help balance and energize the body and promote better sleep. |
