Tips:
1. I like a little bitter taste. Linden honey is just to neutralize the astringency. Those who are afraid of bitterness can add another spoonful of honey.
2. Bitter melon is bitter in taste, cold in nature when it is raw, and warm in nature when it is ripe. Raw food clears heat and relieves fire, relieves heat and trouble; cooked food nourishes the blood and nourishes the liver, nourishes the spleen and kidneys, can eliminate evil and heat, relieve fatigue, clear the mind and eyesight, invigorate qi and yang. But eating bitter gourd should also be careful not to damage the spleen and lungs. Although the weather is hot in summer, people should not eat too many bitter foods, and it is best to match spicy foods (such as peppers, peppers, onions, garlic), which can prevent bitterness from entering the heart and help replenish lung qi.
