Premium Vietnamese Jelly Leaves – The Natural Cooling Wonder

1. Introduction to Lá Sương Sâm

Lá Sương Sâm (English: Tiliacora triandra leaves) is a miraculous plant native to Southeast Asia, widely used in Vietnam to create a refreshing, jelly-like dessert known as Thạch Sương Sâm. Unlike gelatin or agar-agar which require heat, these leaves contain natural pectin that thickens into a firm, emerald-green jelly simply by crushing them with water at room temperature.

At Vinahugo, we supply two varieties: Sương Sâm Lông (Hairy leaves – preferred for its smoother, firmer jelly) and Sương Sâm Láng (Smooth leaves). Our leaves are harvested from mature vines to ensure the highest concentration of natural thickening agents and nutrients.

2. Product Characteristics

• Appearance: Heart-shaped or arrow-shaped leaves. The “Lông” variety is covered in soft, velvety hairs, while the “Láng” variety is glossy and smooth.

• Texture: Tough and fibrous when fresh, but they release a slippery, pectin-rich juice when crushed.

• Flavor Profile: Mild, grassy, and slightly earthy. It carries a natural “coolness” that is very soothing.

• Color: Produces a stunning, deep translucent emerald-green jelly.
