Why people make this soup
Wampee — known in Cantonese as 黄皮 (huang pi) — is a small citrus-family fruit that has been used in southern Chinese households for generations. When flu season arrives or the whole family feels a bit sluggish after heavy meals, many Cantonese grandmothers reach for both the fruit and its fragrant leaves to make a simple cleansing drink. Nourilo has long appreciated how the leaves carry a distinctive, almost herby citrus scent that the fruit alone cannot deliver. Together they make a light, warming brew that feels both practical and comforting.
