Chinese Herbal Soup
Ingredients
2 ounces Chinese herbs (such
as astragalus, ginseng, rehmannia, codonopsis, ligustrum, burdock and shizandra
berries)
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh ginger
1/8 cup uncooked rice
4 cups soup stock
1 diced carrot
1 beet or 1 turnip, diced
1 diced yam
¼ cup shiitake mushrooms, slivered
Directions
Place the herbs (including
ginger) in a muslin bag or tie them together with a string. Simmer the bag and
rice in the soup stock for 1 hour.
Add the vegetables and
mushrooms to the herbal stew, and simmer gently for another 30 minutes.
Remove the bag filled with
herbs, and serve the soup.
Note: If you use burdock in
this soup, it can be finely chopped and need not go in a bag.
