DIY: Sabah Snake Grass 蛇竹草 -How to make the Powder Form?

蛇竹草。

無毒、味酸、甘、微苦澀,性淡涼

We have all read articles about drinking SSG juice made with a fruit juicer
 together with green apple. Sometimes other herbs are added eg. 七星  Seven Star
Needle to treat Kidney Cancer.

Fresh leaves of Sabah Snake Grass can be washed , put on a towel to air dry. Then you
can keep the leaves in Ziplock bags or ordinary clear plastic bags and seal it with a candle.
These dry leaves you can boil with water and red dates to make SSG tea. The red dates
makes the tea smell nice and taste bit sweet.  You can also add Wolfberries
(red small berries from chinese medical store) called Kei Chi which can help to improve
eye sight.

DIY :   How to make SSG into Powder Form  粉  ?
After you have washed the leaves, put on a towel to absorb the moisture.

Take the dried leaves and put into a pounder and pound till you get fine powder.

You can buy pounder from some small sundry store in the market or maybe can find in bakery
shops.

Note: You can also use a dry blender to grind the leaves to powder but due to the heat from
          the equipment it may reduce the medicinal value of the SSG herbs.

If you want to make capsules of SSG, buy the capsules containers and put the powder
inside and seal up.

The powder SSG you can sprinkle on salad, bread, toasts, pizzas and any other food form
you can think of.     What an innovative way to consume SSG !
