About the Product

HANZO Herbal Broth is a premium Korean herbal cooking broth crafted from five selected herbal ingredients. Inspired by Korean culinary tradition, it is designed for soups, stews, braising, meat, seafood, and everyday cooking. Use it in place of water or stock to add clean herbal depth while helping reduce unwanted gamey and fishy odors.

HANZO Herbal broth is crafted from five carefully selected herbs, each long cherished in Korean culinary tradition:

  • Astragalus Root — warm, earthy herbal body
  • Angelica Gigas Root — rich, distinctive herbal depth
  • Hovenia Dulcis Fruit — mild, naturally balanced sweetness
  • Eleutherococcus Senticosus Root — robust, earthy character
  • Cnidium Rhizome — aromatic complexity and clean finish

Each herb in HANZO Herbal Broth is rooted in Korean culinary tradition and is valued for the unique flavors, aroma, and character it brings to cooking.

  • Eleutherococcus Senticosus Root — Long used in East Asian kitchens for its earthy, robust character that adds depth to broths and slow-cooked dishes.
  • Astragalus Root — A staple of Korean traditional cooking, prized for its warm, subtly sweet flavor that forms the rich backbone of soups like Samgyetang.
  • Hovenia Dulcis Fruit — Cherished in Korean cuisine for its naturally mild, pleasant sweetness that gently balances savory flavors.
  • Cnidium Rhizome — Traditionally used in East Asian kitchens for the aromatic, warming complexity it brings to broths and stews.
