Agaricus Mushroom, Adenophora and Polygonatum Lean Pork Soup

Why people make this soup

I picked up a pack of Agaricus blazei mushrooms — they have a wonderfully clean fragrance, and the medium ones with a strong aroma are better than the biggest. This mushroom is traditionally valued for supporting the body broadly, and is often associated with healthy blood sugar, blood lipids and liver function. Here I pair it with adenophora, Solomon’s seal and goji into a soup that suits anyone wanting gentle support for blood sugar and a hard-working liver.
