Soups
Adenophora, Solomon's Seal, Apple & Pear Lean Pork Soup
traditionally used to nourish yin, moisten the lungs, and relieve dry throat and dry cough
Why people make this soup
Sometimes the body feels like it just needs moisture — a dry, scratchy throat, thirst that water does not quite quench, or a lingering sense of inner heat after illness. In Cantonese food therapy, this kind of dryness is classically addressed with yin-nourishing ingredients. Fresh Solomon’s seal (yu zhu), when in season, is gently fragrant and plump, and pairs naturally with throat-soothing adenophora root, two kinds of sweet seasonal fruit, and lean pork. The result is a delicately sweet, clean-tasting soup that is particularly welcome during the dry autumn months.
