1: Kelp and mung beans. Function: Cools and relieves heat, detoxifies and promotes diuresis, cures cough, and can reduce skin viruses (such as acne). This should be the most common dessert in Huazhou. Not only is it available in dessert shops, but every household also often makes it in the hot summer. However, when cooking, remember to soak the mung beans for 1-2 hours, then cook the mung beans first, and then add the kelp when they are almost cooked. It is also best to add rock sugar instead of brown sugar, because rock sugar will not cause internal heat so easily.

This is also a must-have sweet soup in our Huazhou. It is most suitable to eat Guilinggao in summer. It is worth mentioning that Huazhou also has a kind of homemade sugar water for removing heat and detoxification: commonly known as "Liangcao", which is similar to the jelly on the market, but the raw materials used to make it are different. Our "Liangcao" is made from a plant that has been artificially de-slaged, added with sweet potato starch and water, and then boiled. Generally, after it is cooked, it will be left to cool naturally, and then boiled with rock sugar water and eaten with it.
