Green Radish, Snow Fungus, Water Chestnut & Fig Soup

Why people make this soup

Root vegetables are nutritional powerhouses: low in fat, rich in minerals, and — because they grow underground — capable of absorbing a concentrated range of nutrients from the soil. Green radish in particular stands out. It contains amylase and other digestive enzymes that support the body’s ability to break down food efficiently. In traditional Chinese food therapy, green radish is considered a versatile cooling ingredient that helps clear accumulated internal heat, supports lung moisture, and assists the body in eliminating waste. Nourilo pairs it here with the collagen-rich snow fungus, crisp water chestnuts, apricot kernels, and figs to create a soup that is sweet-tasting, easy to drink, and genuinely nourishing.
