Happy health buffs! Six Healthy Soups and Stews: The Easy Way to Get a Beautiful Face!

Corn, Yam, and Pork Rib Soup

What you need:Pork ribs, corn, yams, carrots, and green onions

Let's Start Cooking

1. Start by putting the pork ribs in cold water with some ginger and scallions.
2. Put them in a stew pot after they have been blanched. Add some ginger and scallions, cover with boiling water, and let it cook for an hour. After that, it's time to add the corn, carrots, yam, a little salt, and chicken bouillon. Let it cook for another 30 minutes. The broth and the sweet corn and yam are what give this dish its main flavor. I like to top it off with a sprinkle of fresh green onions before serving.

Pig Stomach, Free-Range Chicken, and Chestnut Soup

What you need:Pig stomach, free-range chicken, yam, chestnuts, codonopsis root (dang shen), longan fruit (dragon eye), red dates (jujube), whole peppercorns, dried tangerine peel (chen pi), and goji berries

Let's Cook

1. First, use starch, salt, oil, and white vinegar to clean the pig stomach very well, both inside and out. For a quick blanch, put it in a pot of cold water with scallions, ginger, and a splash of cooking wine. When it's done, cut it up and put it to the side. Do the same thing with the chicken that is free-range.
2. Next, heat some oil in a pan and let the smell of ginger slices and whole peppercorns fill your kitchen. Put in the pig stomach and stir it well. Put boiling water on it and let it boil for about 5 minutes on high heat.
3. Now it's time for the rest. Put the codonopsis root, longan fruit, red dates, dried tangerine peel, and pig stomach in the pot. Next, add the yams and chestnuts, bring it to a strong boil, and then let it cook on low heat for about 45 minutes.
4. Add the chicken that was raised in the wild, bring it back to a boil, and then let it simmer on low heat for another 15 minutes. Add the goji berries and a little salt right before you serve.

Radish and Pork Trotter Soup

What you need:Pork trotters, radish, kelp, pork fat, ginger slices, goji berries, green onions, and salt

Time to Cook

1. Start by blanching the pork trotters for a few minutes to get rid of any dirt. Get rid of the water and put them aside.
2. Now, put some pork fat in your pot and cook the trotters with some ginger slices for a few minutes. When you sauté the trotters in pork fat, they make the broth taste very rich.
3. After that, put the sautéed trotters in a clay pot, add enough boiling water, and let them cook on low heat for about an hour. Then it's time to add the radish. I also like to add a little bit of kelp.
4. Let it cook on low heat for two more hours.
5. To serve, add goji berries, some chopped green onions, and a little salt and pepper.

Winter Melon Pork Rib Soup

When the weather gets hotter, too much heat inside can make you tired and lose your appetite. It can also cause problems like constipation and skin problems like rashes or acne. Traditional winter melon soup can hurt digestion, even though it cools you down. This tasty soup cools you down without hurting your stomach, so it's a great summer dish. Both kids and adults love it.

What you need:Winter melon (400g), white lentils (20g), fox nuts (20g), adzuki beans (30g), lotus seeds (15g), dried tangerine peel (1g), pork ribs or backbone (500g), ginger slices (2 pieces), honey dates (1–2 pieces)

Let's Start Cooking

1. Quickly sauté the barley grains and white lentils in a hot pan to warm them up.
2. Soak the dried tangerine peel until it gets soft, then scrape off the inner membrane. Soak the adzuki beans, lotus seeds, barley grains, and lentils in water for about an hour.
3. Put everything into the clay pot except the dried tangerine peel and honey dates. Put it on high heat until it boils, then turn the heat down and let it simmer for 40 to 50 minutes.
4. Finally, add the honey dates and dried tangerine peel. Let the mixture simmer on low heat for another 10 to 20 minutes. Add salt to taste.

Mushroom Barley Chicken Soup

What you need:Chicken, shiitake mushrooms, yam, carrot, barley, and poria mushroom

Let's Get Cooking

Soak the shiitake mushrooms, barley, and poria mushrooms for half an hour before you need them. In the meantime, soak the chicken in salted water to get the blood out. Put some oil in the pot and heat it up. Add some ginger slices and the chicken meat, and stir until the moisture is gone. Put the chicken, shiitake mushrooms, carrot, barley, and poria mushroom in your soup pot. Add enough boiling water to cover everything. Let it cook slowly for about an hour. After that, add the yam and cook for another 20 minutes. Add salt to taste, and if you want, top with green onions before serving!

A Little Tip

In addition to poria mushroom, there are many other herbs that can help get rid of dampness. Some of these are patchouli leaves, dried tangerine peel, and wood fragrance. These herbs are common in traditional Chinese medicine and work very well in soups.

Clear-Braised Beef Short Ribs

what you need:Salt, black pepper, cooking wine, scallions, ginger, goji berries, and beef short ribs

Let's Start Cooking

1. Cut the beef short ribs into pieces to begin. Put them in cold water with some scallions, ginger, and a splash of cooking wine. Bring it to a quick boil, skimming off any foam that forms. This is an important step to get rid of any bad tastes.
2. Turn down the heat and add a few slices of ginger and scallion. Put a lid on the pot and let it braise slowly for about an hour and a half, which will let all the flavors come out.
3. Just before you serve, add a little salt and black pepper to taste. A lot of chopped green onions and goji berries make a smell that is impossible to resist!

A Dipping Sauce for Everyone

If you want to add more flavor, make a dipping sauce! If you want a taste that will blow your mind, mix soy sauce, vinegar, small chili peppers, and cilantro together.
