Heat-clearing and damp-removing Sage Pork Bone Soup

Overview

With the rainy season, we return to the south to kill. The moisture will be very heavy, and it is easy to feel tired and lose appetite. At this time, it is better to drink some dehumidification soup. When it comes to removing dampness, adzuki beans, eyebrow beans and lentils are all good at removing dampness. Together with the seasoned sage, which can clear away heat and promote fluid production, it is a soup you can often drink.

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Have materials ready.

   

2. 2 Wash adzuki beans, eyebrow beans and lentils and soak them for 1 hour. (Adzuki beans are not what we usually call red beans. Red beans are relatively round, while adzuki beans are slender and slightly flat. Adzuki beans have a strong dehumidifying effect and are used for medicinal conditioning, while red beans are mainly used for food.)

   

3. 3 Wash the pork fan bones and chop them into large pieces, add water to a pot and bring to a boil over high heat.

   

4. 4 After boiling for 1 minute, the blood from the pork bones came out. Then take out the pork bones, rinse them, remove the foam and set aside. (These can remove the fishy smell and blood to prevent the soup from becoming cloudy.

   

5. 5 Kuzu has many other names, such as cold potato and jicama. It has the functions of clearing away heat, dispelling fire, nourishing yin and promoting fluid production.

   

6. 6 Wash the karuta, peel, remove tendons and cut into pieces.

   

7. 7 Put the ginger slices, pork bones, adzuki beans, eyebrow beans, lentils, and sage into the soup pot.

   

8. 8 Pour in an appropriate amount of water (amount of water: approximately 2 bowls of water per person.) and cover with a lid. After the fire boils, turn to low heat and simmer for 1.5 hours.

   

9. 9 Just add an appropriate amount of salt to taste before turning off the heat.
