Ingredients

10 chestnuts decorticated type will be good
200 g pork ribs
6 slices ginger
5 red dates
5 g goji berries (jujube)
⅛ teaspoon salt

Instructions

Firstly, we should wash the chestnuts. We use 10 chestnuts for this soup.
Second, we should wash 200g pork ribs. More pork ribs can add more thick taste to the soup.
Before cooking this soup, we still need to prepare 6 slices of ginger for this food.
Now we still need to prepare 5 red dates for this soup. Cut the red date and denucleate. Then cut it into small pieces. Save it for later.
Next, we should blanch pork ribs. Firstly, add some water and 3 slices of ginger into the pan. Use a big fire to heat it. After the water has boiled, add pork ribs into the pan to blanch. When the pork ribs turn white, drain and save it for later.
Now we can cook this soup. Add 3 slices of ginger, pork ribs, chestnut, red dates into the pan. Then pour 800ml water into the pan. Use the big fire to boil it. After it is boiled, use the soft fire to cook it for 30 minutes.
When the soup is cooking, we can wash 5g goji berries for this soup. Then drain and save them for later.
Now we should add goji berries into the pan. After the soup has cooked for 20 minutes, add goji berries into the pan. Please don't add the goji berries too early. That can cause the sour into the soup. Then when the time is up, add 1/8 teaspoon salt into the pan and then we got the delicious soup.
