Tremella water chestnut soup
Recently, the weather has been changing, and I accidentally caught a cold, a little bit of a fire, and my throat is very uncomfortable... It's not good to always take medicine. This season, water chestnuts are very abundant, sweet, juicy, crisp and delicious. They can be used as a fruit, and can also be counted as a vegetable. It also has the effects of cooling blood and detoxifying, diuretic, dispelling dampness and phlegm, and promoting digestion and removing swelling. Haha... I ate a few of them very delicious. Later, when I checked their nutritional value online, I discovered: "Water chestnut is an aquatic vegetable that is extremely susceptible to pollution and is prone to poisoning when eaten raw. It is recommended to eat it after cooking." So, I originally planned to cook tremella pear soup, but I replaced the fragrant pears with water chestnuts... It felt good too...

    After boiling over high heat, turn to low heat and cook for 30 minutes. But I booked an hour regularly. I like the white fungus cooked so delicious, but later discovered that... maybe it was because I cooked it with water chestnut, the white fungus was still not cooked.

    Maybe it's because it's cooked with water chestnut, the tremella is not easy to cook... However, it's also quite delicious... By the way, the water chestnut skin is purple-black and the meat is white. The top grade is a big purple-black, shiny and undamaged one.
