Radish is not only diverse in variety and nutritious, but also eaten in various ways. It can be cooked in soup, cold salad, braised in braise, pickled, and some can be eaten raw. In this issue, we recommend celebrity chef Li Na. The white radish and three delicacies soup she cooks is also a delicious home-cooked soup.
Raw material preparation:
Main ingredients: white radish, bean curd shrimp rolls, tea tree mushrooms, red dates, ginger

“Eat radish in winter and ginger in summer.” White radish is rich in calcium and vitamin C, and has the functions of promoting digestion, anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer and detoxification, so it is used as the main soup. It has a very good nourishing effect on the body. Li Na reminded that when buying white radish, you should choose the kind with enough water so that the soup will be delicious.
Tea tree mushrooms, red dates and ginger are all convenient and easy-to-get ingredients. As for the bean curd shrimp rolls, you can also buy them in supermarkets. Li Na said that it is not difficult to make them yourself. First, pat the shrimp into a puree with the back of a knife. Add white pepper, starch, cooking wine and salt to the shrimp puree, and then mix it with the egg white. If you happen to have ready-made ingredients such as carrots and green beans on hand, you can also chop them into pieces and mix them into the shrimp paste. Not only will the color look good, but it will also increase the taste. Soak the bean curd skin in hot water, then spread it out, add the mixed shrimp paste, fold both sides of the bean curd skin in the middle, wrap the shrimp paste into a long bean curd skin roll, and then roll the bean curd skin with a knife Cut it into pieces crosswise.
Cooking process:
The process of cooking soup is relatively simple. Li Na said that you only need to grasp the cooking time of various raw materials and add them in order.
First boil a pot of water on the stove, add tea tree mushrooms, red dates and ginger, then add the diced white radish after 10 minutes. After about 20 minutes, the white radish will be just cooked. Switch to medium-low heat and cook for another 10 minutes until the white radish is thoroughly cooked and crispy. The bean curd shrimp rolls are easy to cook, so add them last. After 5 minutes, add a little salt to the soup and serve. If you like spicy food, you can add a little chili pepper to the soup according to your personal taste.
