Bitter Melon, Black-Eyed Pea & Pork Rib Soup

Why people make this soup

When summer arrives, the heat seems to climb inside us too — short tempers, restlessness, that “fired-up” feeling. Nourilo’s go-to is bitter melon, which is traditionally cooling. Paired with black-eyed peas and pork ribs, it makes a balanced bowl that suits hot days, especially for those who run warm or carry a little dampness.
