Chinese Yam, Goji, Polygonatum, Mai Dong and Quail Soup

Why people make this soup

Around Lunar New Year the table is always full, and Nourilo likes a soup that nourishes without turning heating. This pot pairs quail with Chinese yam, polygonatum and mai dong so it feeds you gently rather than firing you up. Two apples stand in for the usual carrot, giving the broth a naturally sweet, rounded taste.
