BURDOCK SOUP WITH RADISH AND LILY BULB
November 14, 2016This soup is said to be suitable for those who suffer from insomnia, with poor metabolism, excessive heat in the body, fatigue and indigestion: Burdock promotes diuresis, reduces swelling and detoxifies, radish clears heat and promotes digestion, lily bulb nourishes lungs, euryale seeds strengthen spleen and expel dampness, and goji berry benefits essence and brightens eyesight.
We love its earthy aroma and taste :) |
Burdock root's white flesh can oxidize after it is peeled. To prevent this, submerge the root in water and use immediately after cut. |
