Cooling Pork Ribs Soup

This nourishing Chinese Pork Rib and Herbal Soup is a comforting, wholesome dish packed with traditional ingredients for both flavor and wellness.

The lotus seeds and pearl barley add a subtle nuttiness, while Solomon's seal and Chinese yam lend earthy depth. Fragrant lily bulbs and ginger balance the soup with a delicate sweetness and warmth. Simmered for over an hour, this soup becomes deeply flavorful and nutrient-rich—perfect for boosting immunity and digestion. A touch of salt at the end enhances the natural umami of the ingredients. Whether enjoyed as a restorative meal or a healing remedy, this herbal soup is a timeless classic that warms the body and soul. Easy to prepare yet full of complex flavors, it’s a must-try for lovers of authentic Chinese cuisine.
