In dog days, it is better to drink mung bean soup! Drive away the dampness, strengthen the spleen and stomach, and spend the summer full of energy
Today is July 16, 2020, and it began to fall into the auspicious days, officially entering the dog days. This year, there are 40 days in total, from July 16 to July 25, 2020, for a total of 10 days; for the middle period: from July 26 to August 14, 2020, for a total of 20 days; : 10 days from August 15th to August 24th, 2020.
The biggest characteristic of dog days is that the temperature is high and there is a lot of rain, which is hot and humid, and the human body sweats a lot. It always feels sticky and not refreshing. Modern people can’t live without air conditioners in summer. Drinks, beer, eating ice cream, etc., will cause harm to the body, and there will be symptoms of "bitter summer". Wait. Therefore, the dog days diet, clearing away heat and dampness, and strengthening the spleen and stomach are very important.
The best soup to drink in dog days is not mung bean soup but it! Drink several times a week, and you will be full of energy through the summer. I recommend the "Three Bean Drink" handed down from the ancestors. As the name suggests, "Three Beans" are three kinds of beans, which are black beans, red bean and mung bean. Mung bean soup is much stronger, because a single mung bean will be too cold and cool. Adding black beans and red beans to complement each other has a good effect of clearing away heat and dampness, relieving heatstroke and preventing diseases, and it does not hurt the spleen and stomach. It is suitable for all ages.
The three beans of Sandouyin are more troublesome to cook, but don’t we have a wall breaker? We can make use of ready-made small household appliances, and use these three kinds of beans to make soymilk, which can better absorb nutrients. So every year when I enter the dog days, my family's breakfast is changed to this soy milk. I usually drink it 2-3 times a week, so that I don't have a "severe summer" and a comfortable summer.
【Three Bean Drink】
Ingredients used: 25 grams of black beans, 25 grams of red beans, 25 grams of mung beans, about 900 ml of purified water, a little rock sugar
Production steps:
- Wash the three kinds of beans separately, add appropriate amount of water and soak them overnight. No matter what kind of beans you use to make soy milk, it is best to soak them before beating, as it will not hurt the blade, and the pulp output rate will be high, and the soy milk will taste more delicate and smooth.
It should be noted that the red bean is used here, not red bean. The red bean has a very good dampness, water and diuretic effect. It is very good to use red bean to remove dampness in hot and humid weather.
Put black beans, red beans and mung beans into the cooking cup of the wall breaker, and then add some rock sugar according to your own taste. The elderly, children or people with poor spleen and stomach can add brown sugar.
Add about 900 ml of pure water, cover the lid and connect to the power supply, select the function of five-grain soy milk, and it will be good for about half an hour.
Cooking Tips:
"Three Beans Drink" should be drunk from the beginning of entering abstinence, and it is advisable to drink it 2 to 3 times a week. During this period, it is best not to eat cold drinks such as ice cream, which is of great benefit to the body.
Sandou drink is best to drink warm, not to be eaten overnight. It is too hot in summer, and it is easy to deteriorate and cause physical discomfort.
If you don't have a wall breaker, you can soak the three kinds of beans and cook them in a casserole until the beans are soft and cooked, then add rock sugar and cook to melt.
