In the dry season(e.g.Autumn), we may have no appetite, or have a dry throat. So at this time, the foods(食物shíwù) that contain a lot of moisture(水分shuǐfèn) are a good choice. It’s better to eat some delicate dishes with flavors of sourness and sweetness(the taste experience when sugar dissolves in the mouth), instead of spicy ones, and some fluid-filled foods, instead of dry ones.
Take time to stew a bowl of porridge or palatable(if you describe food or drink as palatable, you mean that it tastes pleasant) soup that does a lot of good to our health, physically and mentally.
I feel joyful when cooking, as I enjoy the process with a peaceful heart, concentrating on food only. It’s also a way to relax after a busy day of work.
Entering the autumn, I have tried some signature dishes in this season, which can help replenish water in our body and prevent some frequently-occurring illnesses in the fall. All the ingredients I have chosen like fungus and lotus root are healthy foods that suit the season.
