Suggested Uses: Ashitaba Powder

Suggested Uses for Dr. Cowan's Garden Ashitaba Powder:

  1. Melt a cup of coconut oil with a cup of raw cacao and a few chunks of cocoa butter (optional); whisk carefully till blended. Add a teaspoon of vanilla extract, a teaspoon of Ashitaba powder, and a pinch of salt. Add a tablespoon of maple syrup as well, if you'd like. Pour into ice cube trays and remove when solid.

  3. Sauté a piece of chopped garlic and about a teaspoon of grated ginger in olive or coconut oil. When fragrant, add 2 or 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, ½ to 1 teaspoon of Ashitaba Powder and 1 teaspoon of Pepper Salt. Mix to combine. Add to a cup or so of cooked rice.
