Watercress, Preserved Kumquat, Dried Duck Gizzard and Pork Shank Soup

Why people make this soup

Watercress is a favourite everyday soup ingredient for many home cooks because it gives broth a fresh, fragrant flavour. It is also often described as a “super vegetable” thanks to its rich vitamin and mineral content. In traditional food therapy, it is associated with cutting through rich, greasy foods, antioxidant benefits and calming bodily inflammation.

Watercress pairs especially well with dried duck gizzard. Nourilo adds carrot, preserved kumquat and pork shank to make a flavourful soup traditionally turned to for moistening the lungs, supporting healthy skin, soothing the throat, clearing phlegm and easing coughs.
