Also known as Chinese toon, Fragrant Spring Tree offers tender young shoots and leaves with a distinctive aroma and savoury, onion-like flavour. Highly prized in Chinese cuisine, its reddish spring growth is often stir-fried with eggs, tossed in salads, or blanched and used as a fragrant garnish.
Packed with nutrients and a deep umami taste, the leaves are a seasonal delicacy. Their unique flavour is unlike any other herb or vegetable—rich, earthy, and slightly nutty.
