Cozy up with these comforting 250g dragon fruit recipes — simple dishes that warm the heart.
During a training session on Traditional Chinese Medicine's "Medicine and Food Have the Same Origin" (Chinese Medicine and Food), the instructor specifically mentioned that "Pitaya Flower Soup" is a signature Cantonese summer soup! (It was only through the training that I learned that "Pitaya Flower" is actually the flower of the dragon fruit.) Pitaya Flower itself clears heat and moistens the lungs, acting like a "cooling air conditioner" for your respiratory tract. Drinking this soup can be incredibly soothing for a dry cough in the summer. Pork bones replenish calcium and protein, and with our high daily activity levels, drinking this soup can boost our energy. Carotene, known as "little ginseng," is rich in vitamin A, which can relieve dry eyes and brighten skin. Apricot kernels and figs moisten the lungs, relieve coughs, and aid digestion. After a heavy barbecue hot pot meal, a bowl of this soup can also help alleviate stomach discomfort. This summer soup clears heat and moisturizes dryness, while also nourishing the body, making it suitable for the whole family. Those who appreciate life and appreciate the "sigh" (enjoyment) of life should definitely try this summer soup!
