The relatives from my hometown came and gave me two big winter melons grown at home. They were very big. They looked happy and worried. The winter melon is cold in nature and can nourish the stomach and promote fluids. It has no fat and has low calories. There are propylene glycol diacids that inhibit the conversion of sugars into fats. Therefore, wax gourd is an ideal vegetable for obese people. Long-term eating can also keep the skin white and jade, moist and smooth, and maintain a healthy body.
Eating winter melon is very good, but this is a big winter melon. You must finish eating everything when it is opened. It will spoil after a long time. Therefore, I have been eating winter melon these days! I made prawn stew with winter melon last time, and this time I will have another winter melon soup. The winter melon ball soup tastes very good. The meatballs made of tofu and lotus root are refreshing and fragrant, not greasy, suitable for all ages.
