In the vibrant month of March, the sight of a hundred flowers in full bloom is naturally uplifting for the spirit. However, looking at your own skin, which has suffered through a harsh, dry winter, can easily dampen the mood. In truth, if used wisely, these beautiful flowers can also help you achieve a "rosy complexion." Therefore, we recommend rose congee for you, allowing you to enjoy the floral fragrance while washing away the dryness of the entire winter.
Long-term consumption of roses can not only give one a fresh body scent but also promote blood circulation, resulting in a rosy and beautiful complexion. For making flower congee, it is best to use small, unopened rose buds that have been dehydrated, as all the nutrients are "contained" within these unopened buds. Cook fresh japonica rice into a congee, then add an appropriate amount of rose buds after it is cooked. The congee is ready to eat when it turns a light pink.
Regularly eating rose congee can enhance one's beauty, making the skin more delicate and refined. It can also treat stomachaches caused by liver qi stagnation and has a calming, soothing, and anti-depressant effect on one's mood.
