27’s Medicinal Food Diary—Reed Root and Mung Bean Soup
Overview
The weather has been dry recently, and the air quality is not very good. Then I often eat some food that causes internal heat. It makes 27 very angry these days. So, I heard a little folk remedy from my aunt, so I made it. The effect is not bad. You can also try it. Friends who mainly have internal heat and often feel dry mouth can make and drink this reed root and mung bean soup.

The amount for one person is five cents each for reed root and mung bean. Add a bowl of water and an appropriate amount of rock sugar. (Reed root can be purchased in Chinese herbal medicine.)

After adding rock sugar and mung beans, cover the pot, turn to high heat, bring to a boil, lower the heat to medium, and simmer slowly~

Simmer for about 1 hour until the mung beans are completely cooked. By the way, I’m showing off the new claypot I bought on 27th~Hehe~~
