As the saying goes: eat radish in winter and ginger in summer. The radish is sweet, pungent, and cool in nature. It enters the liver, stomach, lungs, and large intestine meridian; it has the effects of clearing heat and promoting body fluid, cooling blood to stop bleeding, lowering the qi to broaden the middle, dispelling food and resolving stagnation, appetizing, strengthening the spleen, and removing phlegm.
It has a good therapeutic effect on acute and chronic pharyngitis, and can relieve the symptoms of sore throat and dry throat.
Black fungus has the functions of replenishing qi and strengthening the body, nourishing the kidneys and stomach, and invigorating blood. Black fungus reduces blood viscosity, softens blood vessels, makes blood flow smoothly, and reduces cardiovascular disease.
Chicken contains phospholipids, which are important for human growth and development, and is one of the important sources of fat and phospholipids in the Chinese diet.
White radish chicken soup, this is a delicious nourishing soup that my mother often makes, especially suitable for the dry seasons of autumn and winter. Add the soaked dry fungus to the chicken broth and cook it together. The result is that the fungus is really delicious. (Note: You must use dry fungus for soaking! Fresh fungus cannot be used. It is said that fresh fungus cannot be eaten with white radish. People with sensitive physique are prone to dermatitis. I don’t know if there is any scientific basis. If you mind, you don’t need to put black fungus. In fact, fried fungus with white radish is a famous vegetarian dish in Buddhism.)

Chicken Soup with White Radish and Fungus recipe

Tips:
Note: You must use dry fungus to soak your hair, not fresh fungus! Fresh fungus is said to contain a kind of light-sensitive substance of porphyrin, which may cause skin itching and edema after human consumption. Dry fungus is a finished product that has been exposed to the sun. During the exposure process, most of the porphyrins will be decomposed. Before eating, the dry fungus is soaked in water, and the remaining porphyrins contained in it will dissolve in water, so there is no harm to the human body. (From Baidu).
