The lotus root can be eaten cold or directly squeezed and drunk. It has the effects of moisturizing the lungs, promoting body fluid and relieving cough.
Carrots are very helpful for improving constipation caused by autumn dryness. They are also rich in β-carotene, which can neutralize toxins. Fresh carrots have better detoxification effects. Carrot is an effective detoxification food. It is not only rich in carotene, but also contains a lot of vitamin A and pectin. After combining with the mercury ions in the body, it can effectively reduce the concentration of mercury ions in the blood and accelerate the excretion of mercury ions in the body. Very suitable for people who often stay up late.
Winter melon contains more vitamin C, high potassium salt content, low sodium salt content. It can reduce swelling without hurting righteousness by eating it for patients with high blood pressure, kidney disease, edema. I liked the effect of winter melon to reduce swelling, so I added some by the way.
Chicken breast has a high protein content and is easily absorbed by the human body. It contains phospholipids that play an important role in human growth and development. It is one of the important sources of phospholipids in the Chinese diet. Chicken breast has the effects of warming the middle and replenishing qi, replenishing deficiency and essence, invigorating the spleen and stomach, invigorating blood vessels, and strengthening the bones and muscles. By the way, you can also add flavor to the soup to make the soup taste more delicious.

Ingredients

Lotus Root Jiangzao Soup

1. Cut the lotus root into hob pieces, wash the starch inside, and put it in the pot.

2. Cut the carrots into hob pieces and put them in.

3. Do not peel the winter melon. The skin of winter melon is more nutritious. Cut it into pieces and put it in the pot.

4. Finally, put the chicken breast in, and then add two slices of ginger.

5. Add enough water.

6. Cover the pot and start the soup-making function of the automatic pot, and the program will run automatically for 3 hours. After the soup is boiled, add a little salt to enhance the flavor.

Tips:
1. The chicken breast can be watered in advance to remove the blood foam, which can make the soup clearer.
2. You can add some white radish to the soup. Eating more white radish in autumn can effectively relieve autumn dryness. White radish has the effects of promoting digestion, enhancing appetite, accelerating gastrointestinal peristalsis and relieving cough and reducing phlegm. Eat more radish to ventilate up and down without coughing, and it can be laxative. I bought white radish, but I forgot to put it in the soup.
3. The soup tastes very sweet and fresh. If you don’t want to eat the chicken breast inside, you can shred it into floss.
