Why people make this soup
Holidays mean big family meals, and big family meals usually mean too much rich, fatty and deep-fried food. If your stomach is on the weaker side, that often shows up as poor digestion, a bloated belly or irregular bowels. In Cantonese home kitchens the simple fix is a pot of soup built around green radish and a few classic “food-mover” ingredients. Nourilo keeps this one on hand for the day after a feast.
