Dear All,
I have trouble sleeping sometimes. My mom passed me a " secret" recipe. Just soak 20 dried lotus seeds in water overnight and then boil it for about 30 min. Cool it. Transfer the seeds and water to a mug/bowel and add in 10 longan and double boil it for another 20-30min. That's it! And guess what? It works! So, give it a go and see if it helps you as well.
In Chinese medicine, lotus seeds has been used often to calm nerves and to help relaxation. In Vietnam, lotus seeds has been used to improve appetite and cool down body also to help send Vietnamese to dreamland! See below for a famous
Vietnamese dessert dish with lotus seed+longan.
Good night and good rest!
Regards,
Wendy
