Why people make this congee
Cassia seed is one of those humble pantry herbs that food-therapy fans keep on hand. It is traditionally associated with supporting the liver and gallbladder, easing the bowels, and helping keep blood lipids in a healthy range — which is why it is often steeped with hawthorn and chrysanthemum as a slimming tea. Nourilo’s version toasts the seeds, grinds them, and simmers the liquid into a smooth congee, which is an easy, everyday way to take it.
