And the calcium and phosphorus content are also quite high. The soup made from these big bones is even more cost-effective and nutritious. According to expert calculations, every 100 grams of bone soup contains 15 grams of collagen, 20.1 mg of calcium, and 37.8 mg of phosphorus. The nutrients in it are easier to digest by the human body than plant foods.) The large bones are highly nutritious and the addition of whole grains to neutralize their greasiness makes the taste much better. The children were welcome and swept away. ,

Spicy mutton soup
Mutton is another thing that stays deep in my memory. When I was young, when winter came, I would follow my uncle next door to the mutton shop. I sat obediently on the chair, waiting eagerly for the hot bowl of milky-white mutton soup and the bowl of mutton covered with thick chopped green garlic leaves. I like to soak the mutton in the mutton soup and eat the meat while drinking the soup. After drinking, my face turned red, beads of sweat broke out, and my body felt as warm as if I had taken a hot bath. As I get older, I start to become more reserved and shy like a girl. I no longer dare to follow my uncle to a mutton shop full of big men. To me, mutton is a warm memory in the cold winter many years ago. . . Dad Monster loves mutton, so he clamored to buy mutton as soon as he arrived at the supermarket. He asked me to make spicy mutton soup to relive the warmth in his heart. It is said that spicy mutton soup is also the beauty of his wandering memory. Just because of this amazing similarity, I decided to take the mutton and went home to think about making spicy mutton soup. I asked Monster Dad to talk about the characteristics of spicy mutton soup, but his memories, apart from being spicy and delicious, did not really help in cooking. So I decided to ignore the memories, give up Baidu, and do what I want to do. Unexpectedly, the reality was far better than expected. This dish has been talked about by Monster Dad, saying that it will be another of my signature dishes. My mother tasted it today and praised it: the soup is delicious. She seemed calm, but I saw a flash of surprise between her eyebrows. For my mother, who has been eating Xibang cuisine for decades, this is a surprise. Unexpectedly, my daughter, whom I haven’t seen for more than a year, has gradually developed her cooking skills. Haha, I really like this surprise. I hope this bowl of soup can become another piece of warmth in the hearts of Monster Dad and Mom. . .

【Tea seed oil stewed mutton】--The best food supplement in winter
Winter has arrived for a long time, and I believe everyone will think of mutton to keep out the cold. But if the mutton is not cooked well, no one will eat it. I'm still not good at cooking mutton. But the one made by classmate Xu is delicious and has almost no mutton smell. Mutton is the best nourishing meat for nourishing and protecting against cold. When cooking mutton, the role of seasoning cannot be ignored. It is best to add some unpeeled ginger. The ginger skin is pungent and cool, and has the functions of dissipating fire, removing heat, relieving pain and dispelling rheumatism. Cooking it with mutton can also remove the smell. When cooking mutton, add some chili, garlic, ginger and star anise. Cooking it with tea seed oil will clear away the heat. When preparing the ingredients, I asked classmate Xu what he needed and he said he didn’t need it, so I prepared some ginger, garlic and chili, but not star anise or dark soy sauce. Later, when I was doing it, he let them go, and I felt a little bit fooled by him. Now I know why the food I make every time doesn’t taste as good as his.

[Chestnut Roasted Mutton] Oil-free roasted pork is healthier. I am busy all day long, and no matter how busy I am, I still have to take pictures. I am used to it, and I take pictures every day, and the more I take pictures, the more I take pictures. Because I have to take pictures, I have to try different methods, and eat something different every day. But there is no time to organize, so more and more dishes will be stored. Just save it, take your time, organize it slowly, and share it slowly. Mutton roasted with chestnuts, because my family doesn’t eat pork very much, and I have never paired chestnuts with it before. I didn’t know if it was paired with chestnuts until I thought about it after all the ingredients were put into the pot, so I searched it, haha, this combination is very good! There was no oil added to the roasted meat this time. It came out dry, but it was quite fragrant.

Mushroom and black-bone chicken soup
There's no feast without chicken. Sometimes I cook it plain-cut but I'm afraid of eating leftovers. Sometimes I cook it stir-fried but I'm afraid of wasting good ingredients. Generally, if there is a family dinner at home, one will definitely go to someone’s home in the mountains to buy a free-range chicken. This kind of chicken is delicious when cooked plainly, and it is nourishing when made into chicken soup. Today I used this half of the black-bone chicken to make a black-bone chicken soup, which was flavored with flower mushrooms. My family liked it very much. Now I will share it with my friends. If you like it, you can also refer to it.

Steamed Chicken with Cordyceps Flower
Cordyceps flower is also called Cordyceps militaris or pupa grass, and its common name is immortal grass. It is a type of fungus. It is not a flower, but the fruiting body of Cordyceps militaris, not the fruiting body of Cordyceps sinensis, nor the fruiting body of Cordyceps sinensis. In order to distinguish it from Cordyceps sinensis, some merchants gave it a beautiful name and called it Cordyceps flower. It mainly grows in the northern increasing areas of our country. It is not only rich in protein and amino acids, but also contains more than 30 kinds of trace elements needed by the human body. It is a top-quality nourishing product.

Casserole with fish and tofu
Nowadays, merchants are more and more good at doing business. They provide clean and washed vegetables. When buying beef and mutton, they will tell you the required shape and they will cut it for you. When buying fish, they will kill and clean it for you. They not only remove the scales, gills, intestines and other dirty things, but also split the fish head, cut off the fish bones, and remove the fish meat. Because I wanted to make fish fillets, I bought a grass carp with relatively few spines that is suitable for making fish fillets. The lady who sells fish in the supermarket made the fish very clean as required, so I could simply cut it into pieces. It was really convenient. A grass carp weighing more than two kilograms, apart from the thrown things, the completely boneless fish meat that is picked out is only close to half a kilogram, and the fish head and bones are more than a kilogram. How can a child like me who grew up under the tutelage of my mother be so diligent and thrifty be worth throwing away these things? Although these things are not as suitable for soup as silver carp and fathead fish, they are still delicious. You can still use them to stew milky white fish soup, and when paired with white tofu, bright red wolfberries, and green chopped green onions, it will also arouse a strong appetite. The casserole is as thick as earth and is very hot after stewing. It will stay hot for a long time. This is the casserole that grandma used before. The two casseroles in the house were both used by grandma before. She likes to cook a warm soup in a casserole to warm us family members. Even now, she has gone to another world, but this warmth still continues...

Red bean and barley water
Barley is sweet, slightly cold, clears away heat and removes dampness. When combined with red beans, long-term drinking has a good detoxification and dehumidification effect. But for people with particularly cold constitutions, long-term drinking may be uncomfortable. This problem can be solved by making a slight change and frying the barley first and then boiling it. After the beginning of autumn, the weather is still hot and dry, so you can continue to drink barley and red bean water, but you can stop drinking it after October in the Gregorian calendar. This time, red dates were also added, which also had a neutralizing effect.

Stewed Autumn Pears with Houttuynia Cordata
This year, the time for the Beginning of Autumn is 10:02 pm, which is the late Beginning of Autumn. As the old saying goes, when autumn begins early, it will be cold, but when autumn begins late, it will be too hot! When the weather gets cooler, it’s time to put on autumn fat. Before this annual tonic, it is necessary to remove the moisture and heat poison left in the body by the summer heat. Some of them will turn into eczema, aphtha, and acne. These are all manifestations of excessive dampness and heat in the body. Reason for recommendation: Houttuynia cordata is a natural anti-inflammatory drug. Stewing Houttuynia cordata with pear and rock sugar can not only clear away heat, but also nourish yin. It is most suitable to drink at the beginning of autumn. And it doesn’t have the strange smell of Houttuynia cordata, so it’s good as a dessert.
