Winter melon soup to relieve heat and aid fat burn
Tomorrow marks the minor heat solar term which means we are close to the hottest days of the year, with showers from time to time. We recommend having nourishing soup to clear summer heat and dispel dampness. When you buy winter melon in the market during major and minor heat solar term, some merchants will give you a lotus leaf as winter melon and lotus leaf are good combination for clearing summer heat and dampness. This soup also has apple, which can burn fat and relieve symptoms such as lack of appetite, fatigue and obesity. Winter melon skin can promote diuresis and reduce bloating so it is better to cook winter melon soup with skin. Remember to clean the skin.
Tips for soup to clear heat and dispel dampness:
Appropriately add in ingredients such as bitter gourd, corn silk, mung beans, rice beans, hyacinth bean and purple haricot.
