Why people make this congee
Nourilo once stood at a bus stop near the park and noticed soft white tufts drifting past — dandelion seeds floating on the wind. It got him thinking: tough, hardy plants like dandelion and honeysuckle survive almost anywhere, rarely fall to pests, and in the herbal tradition they are valued for clearing heat and easing inflammation. When you are prone to recurring sore throats, gum trouble or other “hot” inflammatory niggles, a simple bowl of this congee now and then is a gentle way to support the body.
