This dish is dedicated to the mother who gave birth to me and raised me. Happy Mother's Day!
I still remember a few years ago, when I first heard about Mother’s Day, I wrote it down. Every time on Mother’s Day, even if I can’t go home to accompany my mother, I must make a phone call and have a good chat with my mother. Happy holidays mom! A mother born in the countryside, although she doesn’t understand what Mother’s Day means, but she’s also very happy to hear her daughter’s blessings on such a special day. On the phone, I can also imagine the mother on the phone squinting her eyes with a smile. Look like.
Years are merciless. Year after year, my mother is getting old. She, who used to be full of black hair, has been quietly climbed into her hair. The eyes that were once bright have also been wiped out by life and become dull. At this moment, I really want to personally cook this dish that was once made by her for my mother, so that she can feel the infinite nostalgia of her daughter for her mother.
I remember when I was a child, I loved reading extracurricular books, and I often hid under the covers to read. The direct result was a rapid loss of vision. During the junior high school physical examination, I was about to have pseudo-myopia, and my mother was very anxious, asking about foods that are good for the eyes and ways to restore eyesight. I heard a Chinese doctor said that wolfberry is good for eyes, so I prepared a lot of wolfberry at home. At that time, I hated eating wolfberry. My mother changed the way to let me eat it. I was not used to soaking it in water, so she tried to add it to the dish. This steamed chicken with wolfberry and red dates is the dish she has cooked for me the most times.
Later, thanks to my mother's efforts, my eyesight gradually improved. I think this is the power of love! "
