How is kudzuvine root powder made?

Today we will talk about how pueraria powder is made.

Grassroots generally grow in deep mountains and forests, and it takes several years of wind, rain, sun and rain, and then the soil breeds sufficient nutrients.

The harvest season of pueraria lobata is generally in late autumn and winter, when the leaves of the tree fall and the nutrients can reach the roots. This is also the best time for pueraria lobata. After the Qingming Festival, Pueraria lobata can no longer be dug. At this time, the nutrition of Pueraria lobata will reach the leaves, and even if it is dug out, it can't be a Ge Fen.

Digging a hole is also a very technical job, because pueraria lobata grows in the forest, and its shape is very strange and it is difficult to dig.

There are four ways to dig pueraria lobata, and the method of 1 is deep digging. If you encounter a big kudzu root with thick roots, you should dig as deep as possible and start digging along the roots of kudzu root, so as to ensure that the shape of kudzu root will not be destroyed.

The second method is shallow excavation. If you meet a naked buddy, he hides very shallowly, then you should dig carefully. The third method is light digging. If you meet Pueraria lobata, don't use too much force, otherwise it is likely to be dug up, so that the starch and water of Pueraria lobata will be lost. The fourth method is to dig again. If you encounter some kudzu roots that are difficult to dig, you must make up your mind to break them at this time.

After digging kudzu root out, it is mainly to remove the epidermis of kudzu root, then clean it, put it in a container and beat it constantly by gravity.

Beating kudzuvine root powder is manual work. First, chop the kudzu root into small pieces, then put it into a container and hammer it with a tool to separate the juice of kudzu root.

After hammering, the pueraria lobata is washed with a cloth in a container filled with clear water, so that the pueraria lobata powder in the department is continuously mixed with water, and then filtered, and the white fine pueraria lobata powder passes through the gap of the bag, and then seeps into the bottom of the container for precipitation. After repeated cleaning and filtration, Pueraria lobata powder will sink to the bottom of the container, and then after 24 hours of precipitation, it will solidify into a block.
