Mutton nourishing soup

Overview

When winter comes, the wind is cold and dry, the temperature drops, and people's resistance decreases. It is particularly important to maintain health and enhance physical resistance. As the saying goes, if three nines nourish a winter, there will be no illness and pain in the coming year, which shows how important it is to maintain health and nourishment in winter. Today I will introduce to you a delicious mutton nourishing soup. The ingredients of this mutton soup are all commonly used by everyone, so they are convenient and easy to buy. A good soup tastes delicious when it is simmered slowly. Let’s take a look at the functions of the main ingredients in the soup. Mutton, warm in nature. It can not only protect against wind and cold, but also replenish the body. It can treat and replenish all deficiencies such as general wind-cold cough, chronic bronchitis, deficiency-cold asthma, kidney deficiency and impotence, abdominal cold pain, physical weakness and intolerance to cold, weak waist and knees, sallow complexion, loss of Qi and blood, post-illness or postpartum physical deficiencies, etc. It is most suitable for consumption in winter, so it is called a winter tonic and is very popular among people. Carrot: nourishes the liver and improves eyesight, clears away heat and detoxifies, lowers blood sugar and lipids. Chinese yam: invigorating the spleen and stomach, nourishing the lungs and kidneys, mainly treating spleen deficiency, diarrhea and quenching thirst. Enoki mushrooms: lower cholesterol, relieve fatigue, inhibit cancer cells, and improve immunity. Lotus root: Cooked lotus root is sweet and warm in nature. It can strengthen the spleen and appetite, nourish blood and heart. Therefore, it mainly nourishes the five internal organs and has the effects of digestion, quenching thirst and muscle growth. I highly recommend this mutton soup. My family has had it many times in winter. I must add enoki mushrooms (I only have shiitake mushrooms at home). It tastes great.
