Tomato, Carrot and White Kidney Bean Pork Rib Soup

Why people make this soup

Nourilo loves cooking with different-coloured beans — partly because they taste good, and partly because of the old idea that “five colours nourish the five organs”. White kidney beans are a favourite: big, plump and fragrantly soft once simmered. Paired with tomato and carrot in a pork rib soup, they make a lovely summer bowl traditionally enjoyed to quench thirst, generate fluids, and support the body in draining excess water for weight management. White kidney beans are available at Chinese or Asian grocers, or online.

What studies say about the key ingredients

Traditional use is not the same as clinical proof. Here is the strongest human research we found for each ingredient, limitations included.

  • Ginger · Meta-analysis, 23 studies · 2022
    Overall, acute and delayed nausea and vomiting did not differ significantly between ginger and control groups. A subgroup taking 1 g/day or less for over four days had less acute vomiting (OR 0.30).Limitation: Clinical heterogeneity between trials required subgroup analyses, and the authors state that sufficiently large, high-quality RCTs are still needed.PubMed 36501010 · 3 more ginger studies
  • Tangerine peel · Randomized controlled trial, 72 participants · 2025
    The tangerine peel drink group showed significant reductions in body weight and triglycerides after the intervention compared with the control group (p < 0.05). Safety markers showed no adverse effects. Gut microbiota and serum metabolite profiles also differed.Limitation: Small pilot trial with only 55 of 72 participants completing. The fermented product is not the same as plain tangerine peel, and the control group is not described.PubMed 40225325
