Pork bones stewed in gourds

Overview

The weather in summer is humid and hot, and people often have no appetite and don't want to eat meat. However, many of the proteins and amino acids needed by the human body need to be obtained from meat, which requires us to use our brains to make dishes that are both light in taste and rich in nutrients. I bought a gourd today and paired it with pork bones. I made this stewed pork bone with gourd. It has a refreshing taste and is not greasy. It is rich in nutrients and is a diuretic and reduces swelling. It is very suitable for summer consumption
