What you drink on Confucius Day is hen soup. Few people will use a rooster to make soup, because everyone thinks there is no hen nutrition. In fact, you can also make soup with roosters on Confucius Day, which has high nutritional value. You can put some codonopsis pilosula and red dates in the soup, which are all good medicines to replenish vitality. At the same time, we should also prepare some ginger and rape gall, and the soup must be light.

Tips:

Hens contain a lot of estrogen. Eating too much estrogen is not conducive to maternal lactation. Drinking more estrogen is easier to restore milk, so drinking chicken soup is more appropriate. This reminds me that when I was a child, I often saw someone always give birth to a rooster instead of an old hen, hehe.

Codonopsis pilosula has the function of invigorating qi. In traditional Chinese medicine, red dates or longan pulp are used to replenish blood, and longan is hot. It is better for new mothers to use red dates.

Don't put onions or radishes in soup with tonics such as ginseng and astragalus, because one is beneficial to qi and the other is smooth to qi, and both are ineffective. In addition, some vegetables, such as bean sprouts, loofah and lettuce, also have the function of breastfeeding.
