Frontier Co-op Whole Schisandra Berries, also called wu wei zi, are a traditional botanical from Chinese herbal tradition with a remarkably complex flavor.
Key features
- Whole dried schisandra berries
- Name means "five-flavor fruit"
- Bulk sizes: 1 oz, 2 oz, 4 oz, 8 oz or 16 oz
How to use
Lightly crush the berries and simmer or steep about 1 teaspoon per cup of water, then strain. Some people soak them in cool water overnight for a tart, refreshing drink. Their flavor is strong, so blend with other herbs or add honey to taste. If pregnant, nursing, taking medication or managing a health condition, check with your healthcare practitioner first and follow the package cautions.
Good to know
- Wu wei zi translates to five-flavor fruit, because the berries are said to taste sweet, sour, salty, bitter and pungent all at once.
