We can look at the role of the two spices in the clear soup lamb.
Dahurica: a good partner for lamb, both medicinal herbs and spices seasoning. Taste fragrant, slightly bitter, with the role of removing odors, increasing flavor, adjusting taste, and enhancing appetite. In the production of lamb dishes, you can play a role in removing the role of fishy and dry, but at the same time will not destroy the unique flavor of lamb, and maintain the original flavor of lamb, for the lamb to increase the aroma, fusion of all flavors.
Pepper: do mutton generally use white pepper, pepper in the production of mutton fishy, aroma, appetizing and other effects. White pepper grinding called pepper, widely used in salty, sour and spicy flavored dishes or soup, especially lamb soup, both appetizing and refreshing.
