Dried fig, apple, and almond soup from The Wisdom of the Chinese Kitchen: Classic Family Recipes for Celebration and Healing by Grace Young

Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • chawkins on April 13, 2014

    I got these tiny little dried white figs from the Chinese grocery store and a piece of boneless pork loin chop instead of the pork tenderloin. Per Grace Young, this should be used as a tonic to combat tough cough. It could just be the normal progress of the healing process, but I choose to believe that soup help. Both me and my husband still cough quite a bit especially at night as a result of this terrible virus and I coughed only once last night after having the soup mid afternoon yesterday.
