To Xiaoshu~~~~~ The temperature in this city is basically maintained above 35° every day. Today’s news is even more exaggerated. Eggs placed on the glass in the front of the car were baked until they were ripe...

Compared to cold, heat is actually better for me. Except during working hours, I am not accustomed to using air conditioning. Firstly, it is environmentally friendly. Secondly, I like the feeling of free breathing through my pores~ Sometimes I sleep, sweat a little, take a shower, and feel refreshed!
But it’s a bit troublesome. I irrigate the most in summer, but I have a physique that is prone to swelling. No matter how much water I drink before going to bed, even if there are a few points on my lips, I will definitely get up the next day with swollen faces and legs Like a pig...
Fortunately, I have a dehumidifier, which is red bean and barley water! Hahahaha~ The program is simple and easy to make. It is sweet and delicious to eat. It is very convenient to make a big pot of ice in the refrigerator every time!

Let’s get to know today’s protagonist: red beans and barley

Coix is called "Coix Seed" in Chinese medicine. It is listed as the top grade in "Shen Nong's Materia Medica". It can cure dampness, benefit the intestines and stomach, reduce edema, invigorate the spleen and stomach.

Red bean, also known as "chixiaodou", has the effect of benefiting water, reducing swelling, and invigorating the spleen and stomach. Because it is red, it is red in the heart, so it can also replenish the heart. Modern people have a lot of mental stress, heart-qi deficiency, irregular diet, little exercise, and spleen deficiency and dampness. It is not only necessary to remove dampness, but also to replenish the heart, but also to invigorate the spleen and stomach.

Dampness, or body swelling and obesity are also the source of various modern chronic and intractable diseases. This soup also has a good function!

Another interesting thing about this soup is that it is different from other soups. No matter how you boil it, the red beans and barley will sink in the soup, not sticky and incompatible; and it’s best to put less other ingredients in the soup, especially You can't enlarge the rice or the like, otherwise its effect will be completely diminished.

You may be surprised, this syrup is very simple, what's special to say?
Food is like this, the simpler the ingredients, the more you need to work harder to come up with a good appetite. Let’s share a few tips for making a delicious red bean and coix seed water~ If you have tried it, remember to share your taste experience~~~"

Tips:

Some people may ask, don’t you need to soak your beans overnight? Are beans that are not soaked hard to cook and become soft?

If you use high pressure and high pressure like me, the beans are completely free from soaking. The beans that come out are as soft and delicious as chewing in your mouth~

If you don’t want to use a pressure cooker, you need to soak it in advance~ Or cook for an hour, then simmer for half an hour, and then continue to cook until soft~



Because this soup contains licorice, you don’t need to put too much sugar at all. It comes out with a completely sweet taste. However, licorice should not be greedy. It is enough for me to cook such a big pot and only use two slices. Bitterness~



Another "heritor" is dried hawthorn! Put a few slices on it to enrich the flavor, highlight the sweetness of the soup, and make the beans softer!



Honeysuckle clears away heat and detoxifies, cools off wind and heat, and can also enhance immunity, so put a little when you cook it, it's suitable for summer~
