About this product
Golden Lion Lu Sui Liu Spice Mix is a Chinese spice mix from China for lu wei: slowly braised dishes in an aromatic broth. The flavour is warm, spicy and complex, with sweet, savoury and slightly tingling notes.
The mix is reminiscent of Chinese five spice, but broader and more layered. Ingredients such as mandarin peel and ginger give it a fresher, deeper flavour that suits long cooking. It is also the base for a master stock: a reusable broth that builds more flavour with every use.
Usage and preparation
Use the spice mix for:
- lu wei (Chinese braised dishes)
- master stock (base broth)
- braised dishes with beef, chicken or pork
- tofu and eggs, left to steep slowly
- soups and roasts
Tip: make a master stock and keep it. Each time you reuse it, the flavour becomes deeper and richer.
Storage
Store in a cool, dry place.
