Why people make this soup

After a few days of rain and grey skies, it’s easy to feel heavy, tired, and low on energy. That’s when Nourilo reaches for a spleen-strengthening, damp-draining soup like this one, traditionally associated with relieving fatigue, easing water retention, and helping digestion. Pork tripe takes a little work to clean, but it makes a wonderfully tasty soup and doubles as a dish at the table.
