I have hives! Ahhhh! And what feels like coming down with a cold. So anyway, mum says that I should eat plain watery congee for 3 days. In the view of traditional Chinese medicine, the water from congee is very beneficial and healing to the body (I think). So this is what I had for the whole of yesterday.
I really can't feel full from just eating congee! Especially watery ones. So I bargained a little and today I get to eat anything that's not cold, not slimy, not any kind of meat/fish, and not oily. So I chose to stick with vege - specifically broccoli! Since I did some research and broccoli supposedly contains high levels of vitamin C which helps lower histamine levels or something like that. And I love broccoli! Just boiled it in plain water and add a little salt! Yum.
That's my little Forrest of brooch before cooking.
And after boiling! Just put it in boiling water and wait for the water to boil again! Depending on how thick you cut your broccoli stems, it should be ready a minute or two after it boils again. You can always try one to see if you like the crunchiness. If you like it softer, just leave it in longer!
Oh and not forgetting my fruits.
A funny looking Tesco Gala apple.
And grapes!
I prefer green grapes much more than the red ones! I find green grapes have a lighter flavour to it. The red ones are much more intense in sweetness if you get what I mean.
Which do you prefer?
