Beef stew with Cistanche deserticola
Extremely cold. The drizzle finally turned into snowflakes as night fell. I didn’t think much about it, and spent the whole night speechless. In the early morning, I saw the trees on the roof covered with snow, and finally realized that the Arctic vortex was really coming. Snow? ! Is this a scene I haven’t seen in how many years? The snow is falling more and more densely, and the beef soup with cistanche deserticola is already cooked. . . This soup nourishes kidney yin and strengthens kidney yang. The beef in the soup is sweet and mild in nature, nourishes the spleen and stomach, and replenishes qi and blood. It is a low-fat and highly nutritious food. Cistanche deserticola is sweet, salty and warm in nature and flavor, nourishes the kidneys and essence, moistens the intestines and relieves constipation. "Compendium of Materia Medica" says that it is a medicine that nourishes life, nourishes the kidneys, and replenishes essence and blood. Contains trace amounts of alkaloids and crystalline neutral substances. According to research, this product has a blood pressure lowering effect.
