Ancient Cough & Cold Remedy
Steamed orange is an ancient Chinese Medicine remedy to strengthen the Lung and balance the Stomach. In order for your Lungs to be strong, you need a balanced Stomach.
This remedy is perfect for coughs and colds too!!!! It’s so easy to make and it tastes delish too. Highly recommended during cold and flu season.
Directions:
- Wash the oranges with salt and rinse. I usually use 2 oranges for 1 serving.
- Cut off the top of the orange to create a cap.
- Sprinkle a teaspoon of salt on the inside of the orange. Alternatively you can use black sesame seed oil.
- Poke holes in the top of the orange to allow the salt or sesame oil to penetrate.
- Put the cap back on and place the oranges in bowls.
- Steam on the stove for about 20 minutes.
- Remove the caps and eat the orange in wedges or scoop out the inside with a spoon.
- Eat while hot!!!
Soak the oranges in salt water for 15 minutes. After soaking, steam them for a deeper cleansing. This method is useful if you’re really feeling unwell. You can also add a little honey on top of the salt before closing the tops and steaming. But make sure it’s unpasteurized honey.
You should eat steamed oranges once or twice a day until your symptoms improve.
enJOY!!!
