Black sesame and red date porridge
Overview
As usual, I have to say a few more words~ After the beginning of winter, it is the third month of winter as mentioned in the "Huangdi Neijing·Suwen". At this time, the kidney meridian is in season, so you need to go to bed early and get up late to converge the yang energy. The color of the kidney corresponds to black, so black food is very nourishing for the kidney; The most common black ones are black beans, black rice, black sesame and black fungus, and the deep purple ones are said to be in this category. I think the best and most convenient one is black sesame, which can be eaten directly and added to various snacks. The main advantage is that it is considered a nut. It is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, which not only protects against the cold, but also prevents vascular aging, prevents constipation caused by infrequent exercise in winter, and most importantly, nourishes hair that becomes fragile due to weather changes!
