      In modern society, people's pace of life has generally accelerated, and many people cannot eat on time, so they often have gastrointestinal problems.

      Taking the time to replenish your spleen and stomach is the fundamental solution to the problem.

      The raw material of Shibao porridge is both food and medicine. It has the functions of nourishing the spleen and stomach, benefiting the lungs and kidneys, strengthening the body, anti-virus, anti-aging and prolonging life.

      Ingredients: 50 grams of Poria cocos, 20 grams of wolfberry, 25 grams of Codonopsis pilosula, 20 grams of pine nuts, 50 grams of kudzu root, 2 corns, 50 grams of yam, 6 mushrooms, 20 grams of white fungus, and 20 grams of japonica rice.

      practice:

      Soak the yam with water first, wash the kudzu root with water, take it out and dry it.

      After washing the Poria cocos and Codonopsis pilosula with water, cut the Codonopsis pilosula crosswise into small sections.

      For Tremella blister Open, remove the stem and tear into flaps.

      Wash the corns and cut each corn crosswise into five sections.

      After soaking the mushrooms, remove the stems and cut into thin slices.

      Rinse wolfberry and pine nut kernels with water and dry them.

      Soak the japonica rice, wash and set aside.

      Put the three medicinal herbs of kudzu root, poria cocos and dangshen into the medicine bag.

      Take a casserole, add an appropriate amount of water, add the medicine bag, yam, and corn, and bring to a boil over high heat. After the water boils, simmer for one hour and take out the medicine bag (remove the medicine residue and do not use it) and corn. Then add white fungus, wolfberry, mushrooms and japonica rice. After the water boils, simmer over low heat for one hour (stir frequently during this period to prevent sticking to the pot). Cook until the porridge is thick, add corn kernels and pine nuts, boil for another 5 to 10 minutes, add seasonings, and the delicious Shibao porridge is made.
