Asian Pear and Radish Soup |Traditional Chinese Home Remedy for Cough and Cold

According to traditional Chinese medicine, this soup can reduce excessive phlegm to effectively ease coughs caused by the common cold. In China, steamed or boiled pear with brown sugar is the most popular dessert in the cold seasons. It is believed that the combination of these two ingredients has certain medicinal benefits.
Apart from pear, radish and brown sugar, I often add two more Chinese ingredients: dried Goji berries fand dried Chinese dates. They are often used in preparing Chinese tonic soups because they both are considered to be part of traditional Chinese medicine.

Ingredients:
1 small Radish or 1/2 if big size
1 pc Asian Pear
3 tbsp Brown Sugar
1 tbsp Dried Goji Berries
8-10 Dried Chinese Red Dates
2 1/2 Water (add if necessary)


Enjoy!
