White radish meat buns

Overview

Winter is the season when white radish is on the market. The white radish in this season is big, sweet and cheap. As the saying goes, eat radish in winter and ginger in summer. It doesn’t take a doctor to prescribe it. White radish is a seasonal vegetable in winter and a good ingredient for health preservation. Because the weather is cold in winter, people eat more hot foods, which easily accumulates fire in the stomach. Radish is a cold food, and eating radish can dispel fire and promote fluid production. Therefore, eating radish regularly in winter will make it less likely to get angry in spring. In ancient times, there was a saying that when radishes are on the market, doctors are no longer on the market, which means that when radishes are on the market, doctors are no longer needed. Of course, this is a bit exaggerated, but radishes are indeed very good things. Pork and white radish are used as fillings for steamed buns. The two can borrow the flavors of each other, and the combination of meat and vegetables is warm and healthy.
