This is really a very simple but delicious and beneficial soup to cook. This soup is known to have very good cooling effect for the body, especially good since we like to take spicy and fried food all the time.
To prepare this, I used the below:
1. Pork ribs
2. Old cucumbers
3. Red dates
4. Dried cuttlefish
5. Optionally roast pork bone
6. A little pepper and salt for taste
First in a mid size pot, fill it 3/4 with water and bring it to a boil. Then put in the roast pork bone (optional, this give the soup a different kind of taste) and pork ribs (do clean up the fats first). When the soup comes to a boil again, put it on the lowest fire and put in cutted up old cucumbers, sliced dried cuttlefish and seedless red dates.
Let the soup boil for the next 1-1.5 hours until all the taste is out from the pork, then season with pepper and salt to you taste before serving

This nourising soup is one of our family’s favorite especially blistering hot days due to its cooling properties.
