The cleaned herb is mixed with honey and dry-fried until the honey is completely absorbed. This increases the Lung-moistening and cough-alleviating qualities of the herb, and is particularly appropriate for cough or wheezing due to lung deficiency. Despite its warmth, it can still be used for yin deficiency cough if combined with herbs that nourish yin fluids. - -Bensky: Chinese Herbal Medicine Materia Medica, 3rd ed.
