Eat three more whites in summer to moisten dryness.

——

The first white: taro

People often say that autumn is a good time for tonic, so at this time, we often eat some foods such as big fish and big meat to replenish our energy, commonly known as "sticking autumn fertilizer", but these foods are high in fat and calories and too greasy. Eating them often is not only easy to gain weight, but also easy to increase the burden on the stomach, so we might as well choose cheap taro for tonic. Taro is an important vegetable and food crop with high nutritional value. Taro contains a kind of polysaccharide polymer plant gum, which can be absorbed by human body if eaten frequently, thus improving immunity and enhancing the adaptability of the body to climate change.

As we all know, yam contains a lot of mucus, which will be very itchy if you get it accidentally when handling it.

Eat 2 more reds in summer to moisten dryness.

The first red: fresh jujube

The ancestors said, "Eat three dates a day and you will never get old.". Although this statement has exaggerated elements, it also shows that the nutritional value of red dates is very high. As early as the Warring States policy, it was recorded that "there are benefits of dates and chestnuts in the north ... food is the most important thing for the people", which pointed out the importance of dates in the north.

Don't underestimate a small red date. Its pulp is rich in calcium and iron. After eating, it can effectively relieve the anxiety caused by "autumn dryness", nourish blood and soothe the nerves, promote sleep and other discomfort.

Fresh jujube ripens in autumn, among which Ningyang jujube in Shandong is the most famous. Ningyang jujube is the best jujube because of its huge fruit shape and extremely sweet flesh.

The second red: hawthorn

Speaking of hawthorn, the first thing that comes to mind is candied haws, right? When I was a child, every Spring Festival, I always pestered my mother to take me to the market to buy Sugar-Coated Berry to eat. I believe this is also a common childhood memory of many people. It seems vivid in retrospect, but it has been a long time. Children are always picky about food and don't eat. Might as well buy some hawthorn or hawthorn cake for your child. Hawthorn tastes sweet and sour, and the pulp contains a variety of organic acids, which can stimulate appetite after eating.

Hawthorn can be eaten directly as fruit, but the taste of hawthorn is slightly sour, which is unacceptable to many people. It is better to make hawthorn cake. First, clean the hawthorn with salt water, then remove the head, tail and seeds with a spoon. Then pour the processed hawthorn into the pot, squeeze in half lemon juice, add appropriate amount of water, turn to medium-low heat after the fire is boiled, and cook until the hawthorn is soft and rotten.

Pour the cooked hawthorn together with the water in the pot into the wall-breaking machine and beat it into mud. The more delicate the hawthorn, the better. Heat the hawthorn sauce back to the pot, add appropriate amount of rock sugar or white sugar to increase the sweetness, and simmer for about 20 minutes with minimum fire. During the period, keep stirring with a spoon to prevent the pan from burning, and turn off the fire until it can be lifted with a spoon and is not easy to fall off.

Put the cooked hawthorn sauce in a shallow mold, cool it and store it in the refrigerator. When it is solidified, take it out and cut it into small pieces to eat.
