1. Selected Ingredients

This product uses high-quality black beans, which are plump, shiny black, and rich in protein, dietary fiber, and other nutrients. During the procurement process, we rigorously control quality to ensure that every black bean meets high standards. A rigorous screening and cleaning process removes impurities and undersized beans, ensuring the high quality of Preheated Salted Black Beans and providing a solid foundation for subsequent processing and use.

2. Salting Process

In making Preheated Salted Black Beans, we adhere to the traditional salting process, a proven method that allows the black beans to fully absorb salt and develop their unique flavor.

This process not only strengthens the beans' texture but also enhances their flavor, giving each bean a rich, soy sauce aroma. This process maintains the essence of traditional craftsmanship while incorporating the advantages of modern technology.

3. Strict Quality Control

From raw material procurement to finished product packaging, we rigorously monitor the entire production process of our Preheated Salted Black Beans.
