Pear stewed with rock sugar. People say that "eating pears is best for preventing dryness in autumn." Now that it's not autumn yet, I'd like to tell you about it first. Pear is a plant of the Rosaceae family. There are white pears, sand pears, autumn pears, etc. They are produced in most parts of the country. The best ones are thin-skinned, white-fleshed, sweet, and without residue. In ancient times, pears were called Zongguo, Kuaiguo, Yuru, and Mifu. In addition to being loved for its fragrance, taste, and shape, pears are also praised for their nutritional value. The pulp is rich in organic acids such as fructose, glucose and malic acid, as well as protein, fat, calcium, phosphorus, iron, and various vitamins such as carotene, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin and ascorbic acid. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that pears are cold in nature, sweet and slightly sour, and enter the lung and stomach meridians. They have the functions of promoting body fluid, moisturizing dryness, eliminating phlegm, relieving cough, reducing fire, and clearing the heart. They can be used to treat symptoms such as heat disease, loss of body fluid, diabetes, hot phlegm cough, and constipation. Pears are also effective in treating tuberculosis because they contain glycosides and tannic acid. "Pear paste candy" made from raw pears and honey is most suitable for people suffering from lung heat and long-term cough. Pears stewed with rock sugar can not only eliminate phlegm and heat, treat asthma, nourish yin and moisten the lungs, but also has a good nourishing effect on the throat. Singers and broadcasters should take it regularly.

1. Material preparation: a bag of polycrystalline rock sugar. Don't use single crystal. (I heard an aunt say this when I was shopping in a supermarket 2 years ago.) The difference is: single crystal is translucent pure white regular small square grains; while polycrystalline is irregularly shaped like crystal and is slightly yellow block.

2. 2 pears. Try to choose juicy and thin-skinned ones. Cut the pears into small pieces.

3. Put an appropriate amount of water in the pot and boil until it is almost bubbling. Add an appropriate amount of rock sugar into the water and continue to heat it over low heat. You can hear the rock sugar crackling in the water.

4. Add pear cubes and continue to simmer. Turn off the heat after about 40-60 minutes. Drink it when it is slightly hot or cool. I put the remaining in the refrigerator and took it out the next day. It is so refreshing! So delicious!

Through the introduction above, I believe you already know what to do if your child keeps coughing! It is very bad for children to cough frequently, and it cannot be eradicated by taking medicine alone. It is also easy for children to develop immunity to the medicine. So next time they cough, taking medicine will be useless and the dosage will need to be increased, which is very bad for children.
