Description

The resulting soup features tender, melted pear flesh, gelatinous silver ear fungus, and a clear to slightly thick broth that is refreshingly sweet with the natural fragrance of pears and a subtle sweet-sour aftertaste from the preserved plums. This soup emphasizes the concept of “fresh stewing,” highlighting being freshly prepared for immediate consumption or having a short shelf life to maximize the preservation of flavor and nutrients. Traditionally, it is believed to effectively alleviate dryness and discomfort in autumn and winter, possessing properties such as promoting fluid production, moisturizing the lungs, resolving phlegm, relieving coughs, clearing heat, and reducing internal heat. It is a widely loved seasonal wellness drink.
