As the weather gradually cools, many people are plagued by cough, and autumn is the peak season for coughing. At this time, we need not only a bottle of cough medicine, but also a problem to solve the problem. And this root is our spleen and stomach.
In Chinese medicine theory, the spleen is the mother of the lungs and the lungs are the sons of the spleen. This means that the health of the spleen and stomach directly affects the function of the lungs. And in autumn, due to the climate, people's spleen and stomach are easily damaged, which causes coughing. Therefore, in this season, regulating the spleen and stomach, reducing the fire and coughing have become our top priorities.
As the so-called medicine supplement is not as good as food supplement, so in the diet, it is recommended to eat corn as an ingredient. Corn is a common coarse grain, which has the effect of strengthening the spleen and stomach, relieving water and moisture, clearing heat and detoxification. At the same time, corn is also rich in a variety of nutrients, such as vitamins, dietary fiber, minerals, etc., which are very beneficial to human health.
Today I would like to recommend a soup with corn as the main ingredient - corn carrot rib soup. This soup is not only delicious and nutritious, but also has a good effect of strengthening the spleen and reducing fire, moisturizing the lungs and relieving cough. Let's take a look at the specific method of this soup.
★★★ Corn carrot ribs ★★★
Ingredients: 2 corn, 2 carrots, 500g spare ribs, 2 spoons salt, 1 spoonful of chicken essence, 1 spoonful of ground black pepper, 2 slices of ginger, cooking wine.
Step 1: We first rinse the ribs under the faucet, then take a basin of water, and soak the ribs for 20 minutes to remove the blood.
Step 2: Pour an appropriate amount of water into the pot, put the ribs under cold water, then put 2 pieces of ginger, then pour in an appropriate amount of cooking wine, then cover the lid, turn on high heat and cook for 5 minutes, blanch the ribs to remove the fishiness.
Step 3: Handle the carrots and corn while the ribs are cooking. We wash the corn and carrots first, peel the carrots, cut them into chunks, put them on a plate, cut the corn with a kitchen knife, and soak them in clean water to keep them tender.
Step 4: Turn off the heat after 5 minutes, you can see a layer of white blood foam floating on the upper layer, if you do not wash the blood droplets, directly put them into the casserole and stew, it will make the soup become turbid, and there is a fishy smell when drinking, at this time take out the ribs, and then wash the ribs with warm water, and then use chopsticks to pick up the ribs and put them in the casserole.
Step 5: Then add warm water to the casserole, the water should not be too full, otherwise it will overflow after the water boils and boils and is not easy to clean, the water is close to eight points full on it, if there is less water after that, you can add more. Add a spoonful of cooking oil, cover and cook for 15 minutes over medium heat until soft.
Step 6: Wait 15 minutes, open the lid, then put in the corn, re-cover the lid, turn to medium heat and continue to cook for 8-10 minutes.
Step 7: Open the lid again, you can see that the corn has absorbed the soup and the color has turned a rich golden brown, at this time pour in the carrots and continue to cook for 10 minutes.
Step 8: When the carrots are also soft, add 2 spoons of salt and 1 spoon of black pepper to taste, stirring slightly with a spoon.
In addition to the sweet taste, corn carrot rib soup also has a good therapeutic effect. Corn contains a lot of dietary fiber and magnesium, which can help intestinal peristalsis and promote digestion.
Carrots have a good antioxidant effect, and ribs can nourish the yin and dry and strengthen the bones. This soup not only helps to regulate the spleen and stomach, reduce fire and relieve cough, but also enhances human immunity and beauty.
As long as we insist on drinking this soup, it can effectively help regulate cough symptoms, enhance physical fitness, and indirectly regulate the spleen and stomach. In this harvest season, let's enjoy the deliciousness of corn together!
