Ode to Autumn

Autumn beckons with the turn into the lunar seventh month. As the heat of summer recedes, the “yang” energy of earth dissipates and the “yin” energy gradually develops.

One should increase the intake of nourishing and succulent foods to balance the cool and dry characteristics of autumn, which will also contribute to soothing and purifying the mind. In the same principle, spicy, strong flavoured, fried food should be avoided. “Qi” which is the body’s vital energy is crucial to our physical and mental well-being. “Qi” is concentrated in our lungs and hence with the seasonal change of the temperature and humidity, our lungs are especially vulnerable and subject to respiratory problems and allergies.

Among the five healing elements, metal corresponds to autumn and is represented by the symbolic colour white. It is recommended that autumn diets should focus on white-coloured foods like white radish, silver fungus, yam, white cauliflower, lily, pear to nourish the lungs.

秋(白)

秋三月，此谓容平

肺在色为白

养肺

秋季是指立秋后的七月，气温开始下降，自然界的阳气渐渐收敛，阴气渐渐生发。

秋季天气渐凉，气候干燥。以养阴清热，润燥止渴，清心安神的食品为主。故宜吃些具有生津养阴滋润多汁的食品，忌吃辛辣香燥，煎炸的助火伤阴之物。肺与秋气相应，秋季肺气旺。

“肺乃气之海，气乃人之根，人乃气之聚” 秋燥易伤肺，肺部也容受到温差变化的影响，易被疾病入侵，因此秋季是肺病及呼吸道过敏疚病好发的季节，也是患者养肺的时节。秋季对应的五行为金，金的代表色为白色，秋季养肺应食白色食物，白萝卜、银耳、山药、白花菜、百合、梨子等皆是滋阴润肺的食物。

Also known as Dietary Therapy, ‘shí liáo’ uses food to enhance wellbeing through the application of its intrinsic healing value.

Diners sit in an ethereal space infused with expressions of Chinese culture and art, forming cherished bonds over nutritious food that comforts with the familiar flavours of memory.
