Watercress is also called watercress. Watercress is sweet, slightly bitter and cold in nature. It has the effects of clearing dryness and moisturizing the lungs, resolving phlegm and relieving cough, and being a diuretic. It is a health-care vegetable that is beneficial to the brain and fitness. The Origin of Watercress There is quite a legend about the introduction of watercress in China. Legend has it that there was a businessman named Huang Sheng from Guangdong who was doing business in Portugal. Due to the unfamiliarity of the people and the language barrier, it was difficult to do business, and he was tired from running the business, so he fell ill soon after. The doctor diagnosed him with lung disease. The disease was considered a terrible and incurable disease at the time. Most people with this disease do not live long and can infect others. Huang Sheng fell ill in a foreign country and had no money to return to his hometown for treatment, so he was in trouble. The local government was afraid that Huang Sheng would infect others with his lung disease, so he was ordered to be driven to a desolate wilderness for isolation. At that time, Huang Sheng was poor and ill, and his hunger and desire for survival prompted him to pick a wild vegetable growing in shallow water to satisfy his hunger. After a while, a miracle happened. His cough subsided, his vomiting of blood stopped, his face gradually became rosy, and his limbs became stronger. After eating it for several years, the stubborn disease of lung disease was finally conquered by mizuna. Huang Sheng recovered his health and returned to Lisbon to continue doing business. His family gradually became more prosperous, and he married a wife and had children. In the 1930s, when Huang Sheng and his wife returned to their hometown to visit relatives, they brought the seeds of this kind of watercress back to their hometown in Zhongshan County, Guangdong for planting. They gave some of the seeds to relatives and friends in Macao, and later introduced them to Hong Kong. From then on, this vegetable and medicinal water dish began to benefit the Chinese people, and also benefited compatriots in Hong Kong and Macao. Since Macau people at that time used to call the Portuguese Westerners, they called this water dish watercress. Today, people in Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao continue to use this name. As for its famous name watercress, few people know it. People in Hong Kong and Macao pay attention to soup, such as stewing watercress, lean pork or duck kidney, stewing the watercress until black, and then drinking it together with the soup. There is a soup in the restaurant called fresh and aged watercress kidney soup, which is stewed with fresh duck kidney, dried duck kidney and watercress, plus longan meat. It tastes great! Folk custom is to stew pig lungs, pork bones or pig blood with watercress; Guangzhou also stews pig lungs, cuttlefish and watercress, plus a few candied dates, and simmers for two to three hours until the stems and leaves are all soft and rotten. Hong Kong and Macao people, who have always paid attention to the quality of life, love watercress so much, which shows its high health value. In the winter and spring of Hong Kong and Macao, the climate is cold and dry, and the defense function of the upper respiratory tract mucosa of the human body is relatively weakened, making it susceptible to bacteria and viruses. Symptoms such as dry throat, sore throat, hoarseness, cough with thick phlegm, and constipation may occur. At this time, watercress, which has good functions of moistening the lungs and relieving coughs, is on the market. Eating it can help people spend the end of the year peacefully, and it is known as a natural clearing and lung-saving soup.

Tofu curd that you can make at home
Very bland home cooked breakfast. My husband loves this dish and often buys it at the bean curd stall in the community. To be honest, the stewed soup is not very good. Not to mention the taste is not strong, and the ingredients used are very few. There is only an occasional trace of fungus, cucumber is also rare, and there are very few egg flakes. The only thing that is more is that you can add chili powder, coriander, and chives as you like. Ever since I discovered that the ingredients of fat tofu and bean curd are similar, I started trying to make it at home. Unexpectedly, it was so delicious that my husband also loved it and praised it very much.

Bridge ribs
I am nostalgic for the beautiful scenery of Qiaotou, but a piece of sparerib has become a legend. I recently fell in love with eating Qiaotou sparerib. I bought it from outside. I searched a lot online but could not find the secret recipe. It is said that more than 30 kinds of secret ingredients are used, ground into powder, and then marinated. Later, I found marinades for sale online, so I bought some marinades to make them, although the taste was a bit worse. But you might as well give it a try. If you want to make it yourself, buy a pound of pork ribs, which costs about 20 or 30 yuan, and marinade (5 packets of marinade, one packet of starch powder 300g, can marinate 5kg of ribs).

Dried fish to go with wine

This dried fish has the taste of mother. When I was a child, because my father had been ill for many years, the burden of life fell entirely on my mother's shoulders. My father is on sick leave for a long time, and my mother only has a salary of more than 30 yuan. In addition to treating my father, we also have two sisters to support, so the family's finances are quite difficult. There is a river behind my house. My mother bought a fishing net and took us sisters to catch fish. She lowered the net into the river in the morning or afternoon. In half a day, she would catch a few small fish on the net, which she happily took home. They were crispy and delicious. Now, I am also a mother and fry dried fish for my family.

Ant Fun Meal
When I was a kid, there weren’t as many rich breakfasts as there are now. Occasionally in the morning, my mother would not have time to cook, so she would cook some vegetable and egg soup and then soak up the ready-made leftover rice to make vegetable rice for us to eat. No matter what, we would go to school full and warm. My mother’s taste has always stayed with me in my memory. Now that my living conditions are better, I still love to eat simple pickled rice. These two ants remind me of the scene when my mother held an umbrella for me when I was a child and sent me to school. Now my mother’s old back is hunched, her teeth have fallen out, and her eyesight is too blurry to see. But it also reminds me of every happy day I spent with my mother when I was a child. Mom, thank you for your hard work! Use this work to record the traces of those years
