Will boiling the dried lily without soaking it affect the efficacy? Today I will talk about dried lilies.
Dried lily is a common Chinese herbal medicine that has the effect of moistening the lungs, relieving cough and calming the nerves. Before boiling dried lilies, many people will soak them for a period of time, which can make the dried lilies more soft and waxy, which is more conducive to the exertion of medicinal effects. So, will boiling directly without soaking affect the efficacy of the medicine? In fact, the main function of soaked dried lilies is to soften the dried lilies, making them easier to be boiled during the cooking process, and at the same time, it can also better release the nutrients in it. However, if you don't soak it and cook it directly, it will not completely affect the medicinal effect of dried lilies. Because the nutrients of dried lilies are soluble in water, even if they are not soaked, as long as the dried lilies are boiled during the cooking process, the nutrients in them can be fully released. Of course, the time of soaking dried lilies should not be too long, it is generally recommended to soak for about 1-2 hours, if the time of soaking is too long, it will affect the taste and efficacy of dried lilies.
The time of soaking the dried lilies should not be too long, as long as the dried lilies are boiled during the cooking process. If you have any other questions, please leave a message in the comment area. Follow me, go to the homepage to see more**, thank you**.
