Butterfly Pea Flower Powder | 100% Organic, Authentic Thai Origin, Premium Culinary Grade | Caffeine-free Natural Energy & Focus Booster Anti-oxidant for Beverages, Smoothies, Baked Goods - REFILL
It’s no secret the butterfly pea flower (clitoria ternatea) or “dok anchan” plays a role in the Thai culinary world. At home on one of our permaculture farms in Thailand, we’ve always picked the wild-growing flowers and tossed a few fresh petals into the rice cooker to make blue rice to complement a savory orange-ish young papaya and garlic stir-fry. Imagine how satisfying the flavors of coconut milk drizzled over blue sweet sticky rice and succulent mango matches the eye-popping colors of this popular dessert. Or you can simply enjoy it as hot or cold beverage, which is often provided after a relaxing massage or spa treatment in Thailand.
Long used as a food and beverage ingredient, Thai mothers will also use freshly picked butterfly pea flowers to paint their babies’, or even their own, eyebrows to thicken them. Full of anti-inflammatory properties that support skin, hair, and eye health, it’s the anthocyanins, or pigments that give the flower its deep blue/purple color. You can now stay healthy and have fun experimenting with this naturally grown and organic blue ingredient.
This is the same quality ORIGINAL butterfly pea powder that first came in a glass jar you may have purchased in the past. As a pioneer and authentic Thai producer of this culinary beautiful culinary grade ingredient, we still offer it in a glass jar. We just thought we'd give you an option to REFILL that often-emptied glass jar. Cheers!
