far back as the Tang Dynasty in China in 800 A.D. The presence of
naturally ocurring monacolins have made this a valuable natural health
supplement. A dietary staple throughout Asia, red yeast rice is also
used for preparing a wide variety of food products, including pickled
tofu, red rice vinegar and Peking Duck as it imparts a subtle but
pleasant taste.
