Longan, American Ginseng and Pigeon Soup
Overview
As the saying goes, drink soup before meals every day to stay slim and healthy. At the same time, there is also a saying in traditional Chinese medicine health care that a cup of good soup is better than eating more delicacies. The nutritional value of pigeons is extremely high. Pigeon meat is a high-protein, low-fat food with a protein content of 24.47%, which exceeds that of rabbits, cattle, The protein contained in meats such as pigs, sheep, chickens, ducks, geese and dogs contains many essential amino acids for the human body, and the digestion and absorption rate is 95%. The fat content of pigeon meat is only 0.73%, which is lower than other meats, making it an ideal food for humans. Everyone knows the role of longan, which is beneficial to the heart and spleen, replenishing qi and blood, and calming the mind. Therefore, in spring, when people tend to feel sleepy during the day and have trouble sleeping at night, a bowl of this soup will be of great benefit. This soup tastes fragrant and sweet after being cooked, so add less salt. I added the red dates in the picture later, just to make the picture more beautiful. The red dates that have been cooked for a long time are not so red.

Ingredients
Steps
-
Prepare the materials and wash the squab.
-
Remove the pits from the red dates. (As for why we need to core it, I heard that it is less likely to get angry.)
-
Pigeon meat and pork bones fly into the water. (Cold or hot water can be used in the pot.)
-
Wash off the blood foam with warm water. (Do not use cold water, as the protein will age when the meat becomes cold.)
-
Put all the ingredients into the clay pot, bring to a boil over high heat, and simmer over low heat for about an hour and a half.
-
Add salt ten minutes in advance and it is ready to serve.
