Why people make this soup
When the air turns dry — whether in autumn or in air-conditioned environments — skin can quickly lose its softness, and the throat may feel parched. White jade fungus is a wonderful ingredient for this purpose: once soaked, it expands into glistening, jelly-like sheets that are as pleasing to cook as they are to eat. Combined with prized Agaricus mushroom, ripe papaya, and chicken feet (which are naturally rich in gelatin and collagen), the result is a deeply satisfying soup that tastes as good as it nourishes.
