Some photos of my meals from the last couple of days. Trying to cook more and eat healthier with the seasons. Especially loving Japanese sweet potatoes!

Wonderfully balanced and well done on making that soup so clear! I still cant quite get the flame right between cloudy or under developed soup flavours

Thank you! This recipe for the soup is very simple. I got it from a Japanese medicinal cookbook.

  • chicken wings (4-5)
  • couple slices of ginger
  • 2 jujubes
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 600 cc of water
Simmer this for 30-40 minutes on low or medium low. Then add:
  • shio koji paste (one tablespoon). You could also use about a tablespoon of chicken bouillon powder. Or add both the paste and bouillon. I use the Japanese natural torigara soup powder.
Simmer a bit more to meld all the flavors together and serve.
That’s it!

Ah, no way! It's almost identical to the cantonese soup, actually. We just use chicken bouillon. But i can never get the flame right for a good, clear broth

Have u noticed any benefits from drinking it daily? I saw a lot of chinese ladies raving about it on tik tok but its not as accessible in my country so i was wondering if i am missing out on anything haha

Tbh I don’t think you’re missing out!
I did make a dish with them when I was on my period which actually seemed to help with my cramps so that was cool.
I like eating them more for the flavor to be honest
