It seems to know about the soup from a TVB drama. When I started cooking on my own, the first thing I tried was to cook the soup. If I cook a lot, I will come up with some soups that suit my taste.
When I am usually tired from work, I would choose to cook a pot of "walnut lotus seed pork bone", which can calm the nerves and nourish the brain, and also has the effects of nourishing the kidneys and intelligence, and delaying aging. Making this soup is also very simple. You just need to prepare walnuts, lotus seeds, pork bones, and a little salt to taste.
Buy two bobbin bones from the vegetable market and ask the owner to cut the pork bones from the middle. Go to the shop selling dried fruits and buy some walnuts and red lotus seeds.
Pork bones contain a lot of protein and collagen, which are very nutritious. Walnut, a plant in the Juglans family, is also called walnut. Judging from the name, most of them were imported from abroad. "Compendium of Materia Medica" records: "Food makes people fat, moisturizes muscles, and black beard and hair." Modern people believe that walnuts can strengthen the brain. Lotus seeds, according to the "Shen Nong's Materia Medica", "mainly nourishes the middle, nourish the mind, and replenish vitality." When eating, it has a bitterness in the sweetness, which increases the level of flavor. Those who don't like bitter taste can choose lotus seeds without core.
Two cones, walnuts and lotus seeds each use 50g. The ingredients are washed clean and the pork bones are boiled in water. Boiling water is the key first step for Lao Huo Liang soup, which can make the soup clear.
Boil water in the casserole, and be sure to fill enough water. Adding water in the middle will spoil the taste of the soup. Put the boiled pork bones, washed walnuts, and lotus seeds together, bring to a boil on high heat, and slowly cook for two hours on low heat. When it's about to come out of the pan, add a little salt to taste.
Red lotus seeds are used, and the cooked soup is red and tastes good.
Chua Lam wrote: "Use a double-layer enamel iron pot with water in the bottom of the pot. When it is boiled, you can put the pot on it. The soup made in this pot is stewed, very clear and not turbid at all... The soup on the table must be clear and sweet, it cannot fail.""
