Why people make this soup

As autumn comes in, the days may still feel hot but the mornings and evenings turn dry, and many people notice a dry mouth, warm palms and soles, or harder stools — the classic signs of “autumn dryness.” Nourilo brews this soup to head that off: it is traditionally said to moisten the lungs, strengthen the spleen and nourish the qi, with a soothing, blood-nourishing quality that makes it a good seasonal pot for the whole family.
