[story of spring] Zaoni yam cake, a kind of nourishing blood and Nourishing Qi health cake suitable for Guyu solar term

Introduction:

"Spring diet should" save acid and increase sweetness, in order to maintain temper ". It refers to eating less sour food and more sweet food in spring to replenish the spleen and stomach. Chinese medicine said that the sweet food, the first is jujube and yam. Yam is sweet, mild and non-toxic in nature. It can strengthen the spleen, replenish qi and strengthen muscles. It is suitable for people with weak body, loss of appetite, dyspepsia, chronic diarrhea and other poor spleen and stomach functions. Jujube can tonify the spleen and stomach, replenish qi and body fluid, nourish blood and calm the nerves. There is a folk saying that "eating three jujubes a day will not make you old all your life". Yam is a good tonic, jujube yam combined into one, people will be vigorous, even older, still can delay the pace of aging, retain health and beauty. In the Gregorian calendar, the valley rain solar term falls before and after April 20, which means "rain, water and hundreds of valleys". It is the sixth of the 24 solar terms and the last one in spring. 15 days before and after the grain rain, the spleen was in a vigorous period. The exuberance of the spleen will make the stomach strong, so that the digestive function is in a exuberant state. The exuberance of the digestive function is conducive to the absorption of nutrients, so this is a good time to tonify the body. The proper intake of food is beneficial to dispelling wind and dampness, relaxing muscles and bones, tonifying blood and Qi, which can not only strengthen the physique, but also lay the foundation for a peaceful summer. When making jujube mud and yam mud, we must have enough patience. We must smash the jujube mud and yam mud without particles, otherwise it will affect the taste. It takes time and patience to make this kind of cake, but I have to say that the taste of "Zaoni yam cake" is excellent. Even I don't like red dates very much, because of this kind of cake, I fell in love with the taste of red dates. In addition, I have also improved the shape, which is more fashionable and exquisite; the formula is changed from the original sugar to milk powder and condensed milk, which adds a milk flavor. With the unique flavor of yam and the sweet and smooth jujube mud, this cake has a long taste. And the effect of continuous eating is also obvious. "
