In fact, in addition to these wild vegetables in the fields, I prefer the wild vegetables in the mountains. The wild vegetables are more pollution-free than those in the fields, and they are all natural. Pollution-free wild vegetables are richer in taste and nutrition at the same time.
For example, the wild vegetable we are going to share today has the title of “King of Wild Vegetables” and is a unique delicacy in the mountains. The famous bracken.
