Soaking Laba Garlic
In the northern my country region, it is customary to soak garlic in vinegar on Laba Day. The garlic that is soaked is called "Laba Garlic". The garlic cloves are all green, like emerald jasper.
Vinegar garlic contains allicin , which has strong bactericidal ability, eliminates pathogenic bacteria and parasitic bacteria, and enhances the body's immunity. It can also promote the secretion of saliva and gastric juice, promote gastrointestinal digestion, and increase appetite.
Some people still feel no appetite after recovering from Yang health. Eating Laba garlic can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
