American Ginseng, Dendrobium, Winter Melon and Silkie Chicken Soup

Why people make this soup

In sweltering weather a melon-and-vegetable soup is the obvious choice — but if you are on the weaker side, too many cooling soups can feel like too much. The answer is a gently nourishing brew. This one pairs energizing American ginseng and fluid-promoting fresh dendrobium with cooling winter melon, black-eyed beans, red dates and silkie chicken — a balanced soup for hot days.
