Cordyceps Flower, Tiger Milk Lingzhi and Quail Soup

Why people make this soup

Tiger Milk Mushroom and Cordyceps flower are two of the most valued functional mushrooms in contemporary Chinese food therapy — and they are a natural pairing for parents asking about soups for children who seem to catch every passing cold or wheeze through every season. Combined with the classic lung-supporting duo of sweet and bitter almonds and dried figs, then simmered with quail for a rich, slightly gamey broth, the result is a soup that is both medicinal in intent and genuinely delicious to drink. Children and adults alike can benefit.
