Hi Mummies,

Thanks!

You can try pear soup.

Osmanthus poached pears | Food-4Tots | Recipes for Toddlers

This recipe has osmanthus, red dates and white fungus. I usually don't include those. I only use pears, sweet almonds and bitter almonds.

I also always cook this cooling drink for my girl, she love it also.
But I my recipe is without the Osmanthus.

Does it work?
My friend has suggested a similar recipe but using half chicken to make soup.

Yes. It is not only wait until she got cough / phlegm then you cook this. I usually cook it two weeks a time for my girl as cooling drink.
No idea about cook with chicken will work or not cause cook with chicken is not consider "cooling" type already.

i cook pear soup for pin too but i dont add chicken i add pork.
cos chicken will make the phlegm n cough worst.
best to avoid chicken, eggs n seafood when hving cough/phelgm.

The pear soup as mentioned above is good for heaty cough. I add pork, pear or sometimes apple, sweet & bitter apricot kernels, dried logan & dried figs. My boy loves this soup as it is really sweet & tasty.

If it is for cold cough, you can cook chicken soup... chicken, red dates, wolfberries & dang Sheng.

Hi Mummies,

May I know if there is any specific type of pear .... those big yellow ones or the smaller green crunchy type ? Or so long pear also can ?

 

[sunburst]

I will usually buy those big, brown, roundish pears to make pear soup.
