Qiuli paste
Overview
The temperature dropped sharply, and there were more and more people coughing around. One night after dinner, I went out for a walk and probably got caught in the cold wind. My mother started coughing early in the morning the next day. I was so scared that I quickly steamed a bowl of pears with rock sugar and ate it before I felt relieved. Nowadays, besides oranges, pears are everywhere in the streets. Autumn pears are a good thing. They are rich in water and fiber. The most powerful thing is that they can nourish yin and moisturize the lungs. I vaguely remember that the Huangdi Nei Jing said that autumn is to nourish the lungs, converge the spirit energy, and make the autumn energy calm. The purpose is to clear the lung energy. This is the answer to the autumn energy and the way to nourish it. Otherwise, it will cause diarrhea in winter, which is not conducive to the normal work of the kidneys that should be maintained. The Qiuli paste above is all brown, so many people add brown sugar in order to reproduce it. However, brown sugar is warm and can cause dryness and heat, so the effect of pears is in vain. Some people say that just add some rock sugar, but I don’t like sugar, so I don’t add it at all in this recipe. The sweetness depends entirely on the pear itself and Luo Han Guo. I chose ground Tremella fungus as the sticky ingredient. Tremella fungus is also a white food that moisturizes the lungs. The polysaccharides it contains are natural immune enhancers, delay aging and regulate blood lipids, so people with high blood pressure can also take it!

I actually used 6 large autumn pears. I didn’t expect it. This is only one third. Wash them thoroughly
-
Peel and cut into small pieces

Put it into a juicer and squeeze it into pear juice

The residue that comes out is quite wet. Squeeze it a few times and release it when it is full. I probably got about 1100ml

Pour the pear juice into the rice cooker

Add half of the broken mangosteen

Soak a white fungus in advance and tear it into pieces

Chop into fine pieces or blend in a food processor

Add it to the pot, keep it warm for a few hours and cook until the white fungus turns into a thick paste
