Fresh Sauropus Leaf, Almond, Three-Fruit and Carrot Soup

Why people make this soup

Nourilo says a lot of people — including the postpartum-care students he teaches — come to him after recovering from a cold or COVID still coughing and clogged with phlegm, asking what to cook. It’s very common, he reassures them. Fresh sauropus leaf is his go-to: gentle in nature, faintly sweet, with no medicinal taste, so even children won’t refuse it. Simmered with apple, pear, carrot, almond and monk fruit, the soup comes out clear and sweet.
