The current weather is cold and dry, so we can add some ginger to the soup; when the weather warms up in March, stop adding ginger and gradually reduce the amount of longan; in the hot summer of June, you can switch to a red jujube and tremella soup. Red jujube, longan, and red date soup is an excellent oral beauty-enhancing sweet soup, so ladies might as often make and drink it. Below, I will introduce the recipe and health benefits of red jujube and longan soup in detail, let's take a look together:
One, almonds, 8 longans, 12 red dates, goji berries, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, and water. Gently tap the outer skin of the longan with a knife to open it and remove the longan meat. Do not use force, otherwise the outer shell of the longan will stick to the flesh, and you will have to break it apart by hand. Wash the longan meat, red dates, and goji berries with clean water, put them together with the large almonds into a clay pot, pour in water, bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to low heat and simmer for 20 minutes. After cooking, stir in the brown sugar while hot and it is ready to eat.
Two, red dates, longan, brown sugar, goji berries as needed. Break open the red dates; you don't have to, but I'm used to breaking them open first to make it easier to simmer out the juice from the red dates. Wash the longan meat; place cold water in a clay pot and bring to a boil over high heat, then add the red dates and longan in sequence, simmer on low heat for two hours, and add the brown sugar and goji berries in the last 15 minutes before turning off the heat. Reminder: On cold winter days, you can add some ginger to cook together.
Red jujube and longan soup can be drunk as water all year round, but the ingredients are added or reduced according to the four seasons.
