Mixed Vegetable Radish Soup

Mixed Vegetable Radish Soup

A rustic slow-simmered soup joining blanched pork ribs and chicken with big radish chunks, mushrooms, ginger and hairy fig root, yielding a deep, herbal-sweet clearing broth.

Instructions

  1. 1
    Step image

    My routine is to first boil water and blanch the ribs and chicken.

  2. 2
    Step image

    Pick it out and put it in the soup pot.

    Step image

    Cut the radish into large pieces.

    Step image

    Put the radish, shiitake mushrooms, and ginger together into the soup pot, add enough water to almost cover the ingredients, or maybe not quite, otherwise the water will reduce too much after long simmering..

    Soak the dried Fiv-fingered Hair Peach for about ten minutes and clean it thoroughly.

  6. 6
    Step image

    Put it in a soup pot, bring it to a boil over high heat, then lower to the smallest heat and simmer slowly.

    Halfway through, I remembered and cut another pear.

  8. 8
    Step image

    Keep putting it in. Continue on low heat.

  9. 9
    Step image

    About two hours, add some salt, put in a few red dates, and continue. Cook until the red dates reach the softness you like. It doesn't necessarily have to be two hours; it depends on your preference. I just like the radish to be soft and tender.

    If you want to eat, just eat.
