The last bit of mussels, a barley and winter melon soup.
I only saw barley and winter melon soup with fresh mussels, but not dried mussels. Refer to other dried mussel soups and make your own mussels, barley, winter melon soup.
Mussels should be soaked to remove impurities and taste better, and barley should be soaked to make it easier to boil. In fact, barley is delicious without being boiled, and it is more chewy. Winter melon is the easiest to cook until it is soft, so let it in the pot at the end. When the winter melon is cooked, sprinkle it with so little salt and it can be out of the pot.
Very suitable for this hot and humid summer. . . . "
