Precautions for cooking soup:

1. Add less water. Water is the key to making soup. It is not only a medium for heat transfer, but also a solvent for food. The first mistake people often make when cooking soup is that they don't add enough water, which leads to adding water halfway and affects the flavor of the soup. Under normal circumstances, the amount of water added in soup should be at least 3 times the weight of ingredients. If you really need to add water halfway, it is better to use hot water instead of cold water, which will have the least impact on the flavor of the soup.

2. Boil for too long. I am always afraid that the soup will not taste too short. If you are cooking broth, the best time is half an hour to one hour, which can ensure the taste and nutrition. Too long time will increase the content of purine in soup, which will increase the risk of gout, and at the same time, the nutrition in food will slowly lose. If it is stewed bone soup or trotter soup, the time can be appropriately extended, but it should not exceed 3 hours.

3, random feeding. Many people want to make up for it by drinking soup, so they will add some Chinese herbal medicines to the soup. However, different Chinese herbal medicines have different characteristics. Before making soup, you must be familiar with the cold, hot, warm and cool properties of Chinese herbal medicines.

for example, American ginseng is slightly cool, ginseng, angelica and codonopsis pilosula are warm, and Lycium barbarum is flat. In addition, Chinese herbal medicines should be selected according to personal physical condition. For example, people with excessive body chills should choose Chinese herbal medicines such as Angelica sinensis and Codonopsis pilosula, but people with hot constitution may get angry after eating them.
