What are the benefits of drinking tremella soup in summer?

Come to a cup of iced tremella soup in hot summer, the taste is almost gone, hehe! As the saying goes, "medicine is better than vegetables, and vegetables are better than soup." Good soup can make you enjoy it and get unexpected results. It is really a good food for getting rid of illness, fitness and beauty.

Before you do it, let me introduce you to what tremella is.

Tremella is the fruiting body of tremella. The dried tremella is irregular flake, composed of many tiny wrinkle bands, and its appearance is yellowish white or yellowish brown, with a slight luster. Hard and crisp, with a special smell. Tremella can nourish yin, moisten lung, nourish stomach and promote fluid production, and treat cough due to fatigue, blood in phlegm and thirst due to deficiency heat. Especially in summer, eating tremella has many benefits.

Therefore, people should pay attention to the fact that the normal dried tremella is white, slightly yellow, with loose flowers, fleshy, tough and elastic, giving off the unique smell of tremella, which can expand 8~ 15 times after soaking.

Deteriorated dried tremella ears are burnt yellow or greenish brown, with no fresh shell, thin and crisp flowers, and black spots or orange patches on the pedicels.

The rotten part, after blisters, is sticky and has an odor.

The tongue feels irritating or spicy, indicating that tremella has been smoked with sulfur. Although the color is not bad, it is not edible.

Because tremella contains more nitrate.

Cooked tremella, if left for too long, nitrate will be reduced to nitrite under the decomposition of bacteria. After people eat tremella decoction containing more nitrite, hemoglobin in blood will lose its oxygen-carrying ability, thus destroying the normal hematopoietic function of human body, and even causing vomiting, coma and even death in severe cases.

Therefore, when making tremella soup at home, we should make it and eat it now.
