Lotus seed and mung bean paste

Overview

Entering Zhongfu, the temperature is getting higher and higher. Everywhere there is an air of no-cause feathers, sitting in a steaming cauldron. Boil a pot of lotus seed and mung bean paste for your family, which can relieve summer heat, clear away heat, and detoxify. Lotus seeds are also called lotus root seeds, lotus root seeds, lotus root seeds, and lotus root seeds. It is the dry seed of lotus, a plant of the Nymphaeaceae family. In summer, people's gastrointestinal function weakens, and many people are prone to stomach upset. Lotus seeds can relieve spleen deficiency and diarrhea. When cooking this dessert, choose red lotus seeds and eat them together with the core of the lotus seeds, which can also clear away the heat. Mung beans have the effect of pressure heat and detoxification, and are one of the beans suitable for eating in summer. Prepare 80g red lotus seeds and 150g mung beans. Wash the lotus seeds, wash the mung beans in water, and remove the mung beans floating on the water. These mung beans that are not full enough will affect the quality of lotus seed and mung bean paste. After washing the ingredients, soak them in warm water for 2 hours. You can also soak them in cold water overnight. If the temperature is too high, it is best to put them in the refrigerator. After soaking the lotus seeds and mung beans, boil a pot of water in a casserole or enamel pot, and pour the lotus seeds and mung beans into the pot together with the soaked water. After the fire comes to a boil, simmer slowly over low heat. After about an hour, the mung beans are boiled and bloomed. Add about 30g of rock sugar. This amount of sugar will only have a little sweetness, because too much sugar intake will affect the hippocampus in the brain and is unhealthy. When the rock sugar melts, turn off the heat. Put it into a bowl and add a few wolfberry berries for decoration. It looks good and tastes good.
