賀年八甜煲滋潤糖水
擺放全盒是農曆新年的習俗，全盒裡擺放各種甜味食物，寓意聚集好運甜蜜，傳統會擺放「八甜」，包括糖冬瓜、糖蓮子、糖蓮藕、糖椰角、糖椰絲、糖甘筍、糖馬蹄及糖柑桔，全部以白糖漬製，據《本草綱目》記載砂糖可補脾緩肝，緩解肝鬱，調節情緒，難怪吃糖能使人心情愉快，但份量要適可宜止，因為過量會聚痰生濕及致肥。
新年過後剩下不少「八甜」怎麼辦？不如加點新鮮食材，煮一煲適合冬天乾燥季節品嚐的滋潤糖水，不用額外加糖呢！

Chinese new year sweet soup
It is a custom during Chinese New Year to place a new year candy box at home. All kinds of sweets are placed in it to represent gathering of good luck and sweetness. Traditionally, there are "eight sweets", which includes sugar winter melon, sugar lotus seed, sugar lotus root, sugar coconut, sugar coconut silk, sugar carrot, sugar water chestnuts and sugar kumquat that all are pickled by white sugar. According to an ancient Chinese medicine book, sugar can nourish the spleen and liver, relieve liver stagnation and regulate mood so eating candy can make you happy. But do not eat too much as excessive sweets will collect dampness that leads to phlegm, dampness body type and fatigue.
What to do if you have a lot of "eight sweets" after Chinese new year leftover? It is better to add some fresh ingredients and cook a pot of moisturising sweet soup suitable for the dry weather in winter without additional sugar!
