Fox nuts are infinitely better cooked in soup. Takes out the dirt/bitter and they puff up not entirely unlike barley or bulgur or rice or whatever. Recipe follows.
~1/3 cup fox nuts,
~5 cups water,
one skinless chicken breast snipped up with kitchen scissors,
powdered ginger,
two astragalus shaved-twig things,
green onion/scallion,
two pods cardamom,
"dried black fungus" (shredded),
1 cup orange juice,
alternatingly boil and simmer all that crap together for a few hours until the chicken falls apart like in Campbell's soup. == Yum. Makes like 2-4 servings after the broth's boiled down.
