I write a recipe every month on Naturopathy (in Japanese) by Dr. Ozawa in California. A recipe for September is "Vegan Mushrooms Corn Cream Soup" ๐๐ฝ๐๐
Mushrooms boost/balance your immune system. They contains fibers (for good digestive system, control cholesterol etc), ฮฒ-glugan (immune booster & anti-cancer effect), Vitamin B1, B2, and B6 - other Bs as well!, Folic acid (energy production and control metabolism, etc), Vitamin D (immune and bone health), Potassium (help reduce swelling, control blood pressure), Amino acids : Ornithine (muscle health, increase energy = help reduce fatigue, improve liver function, balance hormones, and improve sleep) and GABA (help reduce stress and promote relaxation).
It is very easy and tasty! I used shiitake mushrooms, shimeji mushrooms, and cremini mushrooms this time, but you can use your favorite mushrooms. I used unsweetened almond milk, but soy milk, hemp milk, oat milk, organic - grass fed whole milk are also good for this soup. I love corn soup so use it in this recipe, but you don't need to add corns but add extra milk and arrow roots or corn starch. Enjoy!
