Orange peel, mung bean and pigeon soup

Overview

Although it is already autumn, in Guangdong, we still can’t feel the coolness of autumn, but autumn and winter tonics can now be carried out. The most classic function of the soup made today is to clear away heat and detoxify. It also has the function of nourishing the kidneys and replenishing essence. Especially when the body is a little heat-toxic and the skin is itchy, it is best to drink this. Of course, the specific functions and uses of the soup still vary from person to person. Don’t just drink some soup that your body cannot tolerate.
