Steamed red dates and walnut cake

Overview

Speaking of the benefits of eating jujubes, I am afraid that many people know about them. Indeed, jujubes have many tonic effects on the body. They can replenish qi, nourish blood and calm the mind. Those who are weak after illness, anemic patients, and women with cold hands and feet in winter can use jujube to regulate their bodies. The edible and medicinal value of walnuts is also very high. It has the functions of strengthening the stomach, nourishing blood, moistening the lungs, nourishing the mind, and prolonging life. It can be widely used to treat neurasthenia, hypertension, coronary heart disease, emphysema, stomach pain and other diseases. As early as the Sui and Tang Dynasties, in order to achieve good results in the imperial examinations, people ate a large amount of walnut kernels before taking the exams. At that time, they only knew about their functions but did not know their principles. In fact, this was because walnuts contained lecithin, vitamins and trace elements. Some people called walnuts the god of brain strengthening. Eating these two ingredients together is the icing on the cake.
