🍵 Red dates, wolfberry and longan tea: a lazy person’s vitality drink that “waters” the scalp
This tea drink, specially designed for busy office workers, can be called a "basic" in the field of hair care.
Its core logic is to replenish qi and blood , so that fresh blood can ascend to nourish the scalp.
Prepare a thermos cup or a glass teapot, and put three red dates into it. It is recommended to tear the red dates and remove the core, because it is easier to release the flavor. Then add ten grams of wolfberry, which is about a small handful, and then add five dried longans. Remove the outer shell and leave only the longan flesh.
Brew directly with 500 ml of boiling water , cover and simmer for 10 minutes before drinking.
If you like a sweet taste, you can add half a spoonful of honey (until the water temperature drops below 60 degrees).
The key skill is to "refill the water". When the first cup reaches one-third of the remaining amount, you need to add hot water. It can be brewed repeatedly throughout the day until the taste becomes light.
Things that novices need to avoid are: the outer skin of red dates has a sweet taste. If you don’t tear it open, the sweetness will not come out. The nature of longan is warm. For people with a body that is prone to getting angry, they should not eat more than 7 pieces a day.
This tea tastes naturally sweet , with the burnt aroma of longan, and there is no need to add sugar at all.
🥣 Five red hair porridge: "Qi and blood gas station" that saves dry, yellow hair and hair loss
If you notice that the amount of hair loss increases when you wash your hair, and the ends of your hair appear dry and split, then this cooked porridge will become your "life-saving thing".
Prepare in advance the night before, prepare 50 grams of red beans and 30 grams of red peanuts. The red layer of peanuts must be retained because it is where the blood-enhancing essence is. After washing them, add enough cold water and put them in the refrigerator for refrigeration and soaking. The soaking time should be more than four hours. Office workers can soak them in the morning and cook them in the evening.
When cooking, pour the soaked beans and the soaking water into the casserole (to avoid loss of nutrients), add 8 pitted red dates, add enough water, bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat and simmer slowly for 40 minutes, until the red beans bloom and the porridge becomes thick.
After the fire continues for a period of time, when there are still 5 minutes left until the time of turning off the fire, sprinkle 10 grams of wolfberry into it, and add about two porcelain spoons of 20 grams of a substance called ancient brown sugar for seasoning.
The key point of practical operation is that if the red beans are not soaked properly, they will easily become hard boiled. Using a pressure cooker can shorten the time to 20 minutes. The brown sugar needs to be added at the end. If you add it early, the beans will not be cooked well.
The flavor of the finished product is dense and sandy , with bean aroma mixed with jujube aroma, sweet but not greasy.
From a nutritional point of view, red foods are rich in iron, which can help increase hemoglobin, thereby allowing scalp hair follicles to obtain a more adequate supply of oxygen.
🖤 Wuhei Black Hair Porridge: "Kidney power porridge" specializing in premature gray hair
Traditional Chinese medicine teaches the principle that "kidneys store essence and its essence is released." For those who have gray hair on the temples and thin hair, the effect of this bowl of porridge is a solid end.
Please make the proportion accurately: among them, the dosage of black beans is 50 grams, the dosage of black rice is also 50 grams, the dosage range of black sesame is 15 grams (it is recommended to use cooked sesame seeds here, because its aroma is stronger), the dosage of black wolfberry The amount is 10 grams (or you can use 10 grams of dried mulberries), and there are 5 black dates (or you can use 6 grams of Polygonum multiflorum, but in this case you need to consult a doctor. If it is a version for home use, it will be safer to use black dates).
Black beans are hard in texture, and black rice is also hard in texture. They must be soaked in cold water in advance. The soaking time must be at least 5 hours. If not within 5 hours, it is recommended to soak overnight and then soak.
The next day, put the soaked black rice, black beans, black dates, and enough water, about 1.5 liters, into the rice cooker and start the porridge cooking mode for 1.5 hours.
After cooking until soft and rotten, add black sesame seeds, and then add black wolfberry. Note that high temperature will destroy the anthocyanins of black wolfberry, so the black wolfberry needs to be placed at the end, then simmer for 10 minutes, and finally add rock sugar for seasoning.
The most important point is that the black beans must be cooked until they are cooked. If they are undercooked, it will easily cause gastrointestinal discomfort. The porridge will become thicker as it cooks. It is recommended to add half a bowl of more water than usual when cooking porridge.
The finished product is dark purple in color, has thick rice oil, and has a mellow aroma of grains in the mouth.
This bowl of porridge starts from the root of "kidney", which provides hair follicles with raw materials for producing melanin.
🥗 Stir-fried chayote: a "light stir-fry" to dredge qi and blood
If it is not sparse, it is easy to get clogged. This vegetarian dish is responsible for "opening the way" for Qi and blood.
Use a fresh chayote of about 300 grams, wash it and cut it in half without peeling it, dig out the core in the middle, and cut it into thin slices. The thinner the slices, the better. 2 mm thickness is the best to ensure that it can ripen quickly.
Prepare 15 grams of minced garlic, which is about the amount produced by 3 cloves of garlic. Cut the millet into spicy rings. If you can't eat spicy food, you can replace it with non-spicy red pepper shreds. Its main function is to enhance the taste.
Heat the pot, pour in a little cold oil, add minced garlic and chili pepper to the pot and sauté until fragrant, then put the melon slices into the pot, turn the heat to maximum, and stir-fry quickly for two minutes. Pour a spoonful of hot water along the edge of the pot. The amount of hot water is about 20 ml. Use the hot water to generate steam, which will quickly make the melon slices ripe.
Before serving, add 3 grams of salt and a little white pepper (the key to improving freshness) and stir-fry evenly.
Lightning protection guide: Chayote contains a lot of water. Remember not to stir-fry for a long time or add water to stew, otherwise its texture will become soft and watery, thus losing its crispness and tenderness.
The flavor of the finished product is sweet and crisp , with a hint of garlic and mild spiciness.
