Unfortunately, many people, although aware of the numerous benefits of congee, often struggle to find references when needed; or they may have congee recipes at hand but understand the "what" without the "why." In light of this, Mr. Xu Zhongliang, a venerable elder from a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners who has always advocated the integration of medicine and food, has specially collected and compiled over 400 congee recipes to share the secrets of health, beauty, and longevity with readers. This book gathers over 400 congee recipes. It focuses on listing more than 120 types of food and over 400 congee recipes. Each recipe is introduced in detail based on the principles of "simple, convenient, easy, and effective," covering aspects such as the function, indications, preparation, properties, contraindications, and supplementary recipes of the food.
