People in Hangzhou eat Wuhuang at Dragon Boat lunch. Wuhuang means eel, yellow croaker, cucumber, salted egg yolk and realgar wine . There is a saying among the people that eating five yellow herbs on Dragon Boat Festival can drive away poison and evil spirits. It's best to eat it at noon, because noon is the time when people's Yang is the most vigorous. At this time, eating it can enhance the Yang. Today, let's talk about the first Monopterus albus in Wuhuang. Monopterus albus has the effects of Nourishing Qi, blood, liver and kidney. It's a very suitable nourishing food for summer and autumn. Monopterus albus can regulate blood sugar, protect vision, tonify deficiency and Qi, tonify brain and wisdom. There are generally two ways to make Monopterus albus in my family. One is braised in brown sauce, the other is stewed soup. Today, my sister gave me a bottle of soy sauce without preservatives. It's a short time and I can only put it in the refrigerator. I just bought a batch of garlic online. Then I'll have a braised one.

Cooking tips:Nag a few words - 1. You can wash eel with hot water. It's easier to remove the slime from eel. But it can't be too hot. It will burn off the eel skin. It's cleaner after repeated twice; 2. Garlic alone contains more allicin than garlic. So it's more effective in sterilization, anti-inflammatory and detoxification than garlic. It's more suitable for eating around Dragon Boat Festival. Moreover, the single garlic tastes more powdery and glutinous. It has skills to cook better than eel.
