Black bean, chicken feet and taro soup

Overview

The chicken feet and taro soup I made today is one of the local specialties of our overseas Chinese hometown. Chicken claw taro, as the name suggests, is shaped like chicken claws. Chicken claw taro, also known as sweet potato and konjac, is a perennial root plant. It has a huge stem root with many small stem roots growing next to it. A taro head is surrounded by long and curved taro seeds. It generally weighs two to four kilograms. Chicken feet and taro are a crop with a long growth period. In the first month of the lunar calendar, farmers plant chicken feet in the fields and harvest them at the end of the year. Fresh chicken feet and taro are sold for about two months during the festival. If a large amount is not sold, most of them are sliced and dried, and are easy to carry. Although the chicken claw taro is not attractive in appearance, it is very effective in fitness and curing diseases. It is called local ginseng locally. It is slightly warm in nature, slightly sweet in taste, and slightly poisonous. Some people have a slight itchiness in their throats after eating, while others do not feel this way. According to some well-known old Chinese medicine doctors, regular consumption of chicken feet and taro can stimulate the appetite and strengthen the spleen. It has certain auxiliary effects on patients with night sweats, habitual constipation, gastroptosis, chronic hepatitis, low back pain and other diseases, as well as those who are frail and in need of supplements after illness. Long-term consumption of chicken feet and taro has certain auxiliary effects. Eating it without illness can also enhance the body's resistance and replenish qi and blood. Chicken feet and taro are mainly used in soups. Chicken feet and taro in black bean pot is a special local soup. It is both stomach-warming and nourishing, and it is not irritating. I believe it is difficult to drink it in other places.
