Here is a simple TCM recipe to tonify your Liver and Yang Qi this season to do just that (especially for our male friends).
The pickle ginger slices:
Direction: Take 1-3 thin slices in the morning (7-9 AM) after breakfast. 7-9 AM is when the Stomach Channel has the maximum energy. Eating ginger slices at this time would also uplift the Stomach Qi and promote digestion. However, eating these ginger slices is not recommended for noon or in the evening, especially not for nights.
The pickle ginger slices:
- Wash and dried fresh gingers
- Cut the gingers into thin slices.
- Take a small bowl or other container, add ginger, pour rice vinegar (or if you can get your hands on the Chinese black vinegar, which would be better) just enough to cover the top of the slices.
- Place the container (covered) into the refrigerator, and the slices will be edible after three days.
