This soup is a no brainer to make but my Mum is an ardent believer in ginseng. She said this herb support overall health and boost the immune system if taken regularly. One caution though, don’t take it at night unless you want to count sheep.
Ingredients:
1 pc 200gm Chicken breast
6 honey dates
100 gm ginseng
900 ml water
Method:
Blanch chicken breast and set aside. Add water and ginseng to pot and bring to boil. Add chicken breast and honey dates and simmer for 2 hours.

ReplyDeleteWith reference to wikipedia, there are many types of ginseng but American ginseng promotes yin energy, cleans excess yang in the body, and calms the body. Have a bowl of this goodness soon:D
