Why people make this soup

At the very first signs of a cold — when you feel you’ve caught a chill or your head feels off — a warming, sweat-promoting soup taken hot can ease things considerably. Simply simmer grass carp slices with ginger, scallion whites, and fragrant Vietnamese mint. Sip it warm, raise a light sweat, and the early discomfort eases.
