Three bean soup

Overview

Dog Days is a hot and humid season of the year, and the body can easily feel uncomfortable. However, when the heat is in the Dog Days, so is health care. If you can take advantage of this season to detoxify, it can be said to be the best time of the year. The recipe for three-bean soup comes from the Song Dynasty medical work "Zhu's Collection of Prescriptions". It is made from mung beans, adzuki beans and black beans. Rock sugar or brown sugar is added during the cooking process. After cooling, serve with soup and beans. If you can regularly take homemade three-bean soup in summer, it will be of great benefit to everyone who has a difficult summer. Three bean soup is both sugar water and medicinal tea. It is an economical and practical drink for clearing away heat, removing dampness and eliminating sores in summer. The so-called three bean soup is actually made of mung beans, adzuki beans, and black beans. In the three-bean soup, mung beans and adzuki beans have the effects of clearing away heat, relieving heat, and diuresis, while black beans strengthen the spleen and kidneys. In this soup, mung beans and adzuki beans are both cold and cool. The addition of black beans will offset their coldness to a certain extent. Therefore, three bean soup can not only clear away heat and relieve summer heat, but also strengthen the spleen and remove dampness. In this way, if the general population regularly consumes an appropriate amount of three bean soup, it will not adversely affect the function of the spleen and stomach.
