Winter in the north is dry and cold, while the southern region is humid and cold. Perspiration and dehumidification have become an important task in winter health preservation in the southern region. <br /><br />As early as ancient times, hard-working and intelligent ancestors invented various cooking techniques to preserve food based on their places of residence. Among them, the one that surprised me the most was Sichuan pickled cabbage. All kinds of fresh vegetables are pickled and fermented, which greatly prolongs the storage time and adds flavor. More importantly, the nutritional content is not inferior to that of fresh vegetables. <br /><br />Various studies have shown that the lactic acid bacteria rich in [pickled cabbage] can promote the secretion of pepsin, the gastrointestinal protein-decomposing hormone, adjust the distribution of microorganisms in the intestine, balance the distribution of microorganisms in the intestine, and improve intestinal function. In addition, small peptides and oligopeptides produced by fermentation of certain lactic acid bacteria can inhibit angiotensin converting enzyme and fight hypertension in the body.

Walking on the snow to find plum blossoms--braised duck breast with yam<br /><br /> The moisture in the air gradually decreases in autumn and winter, especially in the north, where the weather is often mainly dry and cold. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that dryness can easily damage the lungs, so we should eat more foods that nourish yin and nourish the lungs. The traditional medicinal diet of yam and duck stew is the best product in this kind of diet. <br /><br />[Duck meat], nourishing yin and moistening lungs, is often called the first nourishing product among meat in autumn and winter. [Yam] is sweet and flat, not dry or greasy, and has a strong Yin nourishing effect. When served with duck meat, it not only strengthens the lung nourishing effect, but also eliminates the greasy feeling of duck meat. <br />Traditional yam and old duck stew, washing ducks, chopping ducks and stewing ducks takes time and effort. If not handled properly, diners with more picky tastes are reluctant to eat more because of the smell of the duck. This can be avoided well by replacing traditional old duck pieces with semi-finished duck breast meat that has undergone preliminary treatment. Coupled with longan, which strengthens qi and nourishes blood, and wolfberry, which nourishes qi and tranquilizes the nerves, in this season when the wind is high and the food is dry, Lan Jingling is dedicated to all friends in the north.
