FIG & CORN SOUP

My family cannot do without soup during meal time.

The figs and corns boil together with pork bones, astragalus roots and yu-zhu produce a sweet and fragrant soup.

Fig has bright colours and an aromatic scent, it is sweet and highly nutritious.  It contains fructose and glucose and moisten the spleen, stomach and lungs.  It can also reduce heatiness, dispel phlegm, stop cough and quench thirst.
