Apprentice reporter Han Songtong, poster reporter Texas reports
The weather is getting warmer, spring is getting stronger, and the taste on the dining table of citizens is getting fresher and fresher. With the arrival of local fresh wild vegetables one after another, “eating spring” has become a unique way for Texas citizens to taste spring. On March 29, a reporter from Dazhong.com and posters visited the major farmers’ markets in Texas and found that many vegetable stalls displayed a variety of spring vegetables such as shepherd’s purse, spring bamboo shoots, noodles, and toon sprouts.
“Recently, there are wild vegetables in the store, attracting many people to come and buy, such as shepherd’s purse and noodles. The ones that can be grown and eaten at home are sold very well!” In the vegetable and fruit area of the Balizhuang Convenience Market, the owner of a vegetable shop, Mr. Xu, told reporters enthusiastically that in the past, people ate wild vegetables because people’s living standards were limited. Wild vegetables as healthy food.
According to Boss Xu, the practice of wild vegetables is simple and easy to learn. Wash it with boiling water, soak it for more than half an hour to remove the bitterness, and then add oil, onion, garlic, salt and vinegar to stir fry it. Vegetables like shepherd’s purse, elm money, and noodles can also be steamed with noodles, and they are also very delicious when dipped in garlic.
March to April is the season when all kinds of wild vegetables are just emerging, and it is also a good time for early adopters. At that time, the wild vegetables are not only fresh and tender, but also the most nutritious. It is understood that the overall price of wild vegetables this year is similar to that of previous years. When the first crop of Toona sinensis was listed, the price was as high as about 40 to 50 yuan per catty, but now with the warmer weather, the output has increased, and the price is 25 to 35 yuan per catty between. Shepherd’s purse and noodle dishes are more affordable, about five or six yuan per catty. In the Grain Rain season, the spring wild vegetables are basically delisted.
“It is this time of year that you can eat fresh wild vegetables, but you won’t be able to eat them after a while. I heard from friends If there are any in the market, hurry up and find some wild vegetables to change your taste.” A “savvy” lady told reporters while standing in front of the booth “purchasing vegetables” that she came here specially to find these “good things” and made them in the spring. Eating wild vegetables is simply a must.
Wild vegetables are delicious but should not be eaten indiscriminately. Because most wild vegetables are cold and cold, people with weak spleen and stomach should eat as little as possible, otherwise it is easy to cause indigestion, diarrhea and other symptoms. In addition, it is still necessary to remind the general public and friends that they must go to regular channels to buy fresh wild vegetables, and do not pick them at random on the roadside, which not only damages the natural environment, but also poses a high safety risk. After eating wild vegetables, if you have poisoning symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea, you should seek medical attention as soon as possible.
