At the turn of spring and summer like now, the air humidity is high, and the temperature difference between morning and evening is large, and it is easy to get sick due to humidity and heat. Targeted boiling some beautiful soup for family members to drink, helps family members (especially the elderly and children with weakened immune system) to get less sick and pass the seasons smoothly. Smilax glabra is mainly used to clear away heat and toxins, and it is accompanied by chixiaodou and barley to clear away heat and dampness. This combination is a common way to eat in Guangdong.

Ingredients

Smilax Chinensis, Red Bean and Pig's Barley Soup

1. Prepare the materials.

2. Wash the red beans and barley, and soak for 1 hour. (Azuki beans are not the usual red beans. The red beans are relatively round, but the red beans are slender and slightly flat. The red beans are more effective in dehumidification and are used for medicinal conditioning, while the red beans are mainly for food.)

3. Smilax glabra is a perennial evergreen climbing shrub of the Liliaceae family, which is mostly found on hillsides or under forests. It is distributed in my country's Anhui, Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Fujian, Hunan, Hubei, Guangdong, Guangxi, Sichuan, Yunnan and other provinces. It can detoxify, dehumidify and improve joints.
On the right is fresh Smilax glabra, and on the left is a dried slice after being sliced fresh. There is not much difference in medicinal properties.
