Why people make this soup
Autumn is dry, and dryness tends to “harm the lungs” — dry throat, cracked lips, a stubborn dry cough, even dry-bowel constipation. Nourilo spotted fresh sauropus leaf at the flower stall, a favorite for a hot, dry cough, and put it with apple, tangerine cake and sweet apricot kernel to make a soothing sweet soup that traditionally moistens the lungs, supports the spleen and helps keep things moving.

Ingredient notes for this recipe
- Apricot kernels: Raw apricot kernels contain amygdalin, which turns into cyanide after eating. EFSA estimates that half of one small raw kernel can exceed the safe level for a toddler. Use no more than the recipe states, never eat them raw, and do not serve them to young children. Source: European Food Safety Authority
