Winter melon is a common melon vegetable in summer. It has the effects of diuresis and swelling, weight loss, heat-clearing and relieving heat. Therefore, in the sultry summer, eating more winter melon dishes can relieve the heat from the diet.
But today's winter melon soup is different from the past. In the past, when we made winter melon dishes or winter melon soup, we had to peel it! But I saw a chef who said in the lecture that winter melon skin is actually a treasure. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the skin of wax gourd is sweet and slightly cold, and has the effects of promoting hydration, removing dampness, detoxifying and clearing away heat, and wax gourd skin is rich in sugar, protein, and vitamin C. So it should be better to eat with belt meat. "

7. Put all the balls into the pot, boil over medium heat, wait until all the balls are floating up, sprinkle some salt according to taste, then turn off the heat

9. Add less coriander for more fresh fragrance

Tips:

The skin of winter melon can be very bad if it is cooked. During the process of cooking the meatballs, the skin of winter melon will continue to be soft and cooked, so there is no need to worry about biting or swallowing; the seasoning in the meat filling can be adjusted according to the taste, adding a little black , White pepper is also very delicious; sprinkle some chopped green onion or coriander when it comes out of the pan to enhance the flavor, because the meatballs already have fat, so there is no need to pour extra sesame oil.
