Why people make this soup
Dry autumn and winter weather can leave skin parched and cracked — hard on older adults and on anyone with long-standing skin issues. Nourilo’s answer is to simmer more yin-nourishing, moistening soups. Here he uses unsulfured glehnia and Solomon’s seal — glehnia is traditionally associated with nourishing lung-yin and generating fluids, Solomon’s seal with moistening lung-dryness — then adds fresh yam, goji, a little Jinhua ham, and wild duck. The result is clear, savory, and a genuinely lovely soup for thirsty skin.
