March 5th is the sting of the 24 solar terms, also known as "enlightenment", which means that spring is close to us. In addition to the "spring thunder and insects", various animals have begun to become active, and various seasonal vegetables, melons and fruits have also matured and marketed.
In the wet market, there is a fresh smell full of spring weather everywhere. The crowd swelled, and everyone's table turned into the smell of spring.
3 Eat
One eats Artemisia annua:
Although it is said that artemisia can now be eaten all year round, the artemisia annua in this season is the real seasonal vegetable. Whether it is a rhizome or a leaf, it is exceptionally tender and the taste is exceptionally fresh.
At this time, the leaves are relatively narrow, the rhizome is also thin, the fiber of the rhizome is also small, almost none, and the taste is very tender. At the same time, its artemisia annua has a strong aroma. Although there are also many people who are not accustomed to its fragrance, it has to be said that this is the authentic taste of spring.
However, there are generally two varieties of Artemisia annua, Artemisia macrophylla and Artemisia annua and Artemisia annua. Northerners mostly like to eat artemisia spp., and southerners mostly like to eat artemisia macrophylla. At this time, the artemisia annua in this season is generally the northern leaf artemisia. Because artemisia parviflorum is more resistant to cold, after a cold winter, it is the time when it is just on the market and the freshest time.
Wash the artemisia annua, salt it for 2-3 hours, and then eat it raw, which is the best way to eat the delicious taste of artemisia annua. But if you really can't smell the aroma of Artemisia annua, it is recommended that you can stir-fry or make it into small tofu.
To prepare the small tofu of Artemisia annua:
1, Crush the tofu by hand and cut the artemisia into small pieces.
2. Put the tofu and artemisia annua in a container, add salt and stir well with chopsticks.
3, cook oil in a pot, stir fry the green onion, pour in a little flavor to taste very fresh to taste.
4: Stir-fry the artemisia and tofu.
5, Sauté until the artemisia is soft, then remove from the pan.
This method is very simple, the fragrance of Artemisia annua can be lighter than raw food, but it is still very delicious, you may wish to try it at home!
Two eat leeks:
According to the saying: "Spring onion in the first month, leek in February." "The leeks at this time are the stubble leeks after the sting in the second month of the lunar calendar. The deliciousness of its taste can be called "the freshest in spring".
According to Du Fu's poem: "The night rain cuts spring leeks, and the new cooking room yellow sorghum." At this time, the leeks are eaten with that umami flavor, which is the next meal on our dinner table.
Scrambled eggs with leeks is the easiest way to do it, and it is delicious to fry. You don't need much condiment, just put a little salt and you can be delicious.
Leeks are served with seasonal seafood to make a soup, which is even more delicious. Taking advantage of the cold spring, I have entered the last train of the sea oysters, and if I don't eat anymore, I really can't eat fresh and fat. Leek sea oyster stewed in a soup, double layer delicious blessing, fresh to the teeth.
Or, with leeks, eggs, shrimp, mix the filling together, wrap a three-fresh filling dumplings, it is even more delicious. Every bite of dumplings is the taste of spring.
Three-way eating cabbage:
Spring is the season to eat wild vegetables, and people digging wild vegetables can be seen everywhere in the fields. Even in the wet market, bags of wild vegetables are sold. However, at this time, the cabbage is something that must be tasted among all wild vegetables.
Because, it is enough to compete with leeks for this "freshest spring" delicacy. At the same time, it and leeks are also golden partners for cooking together. When wrapping the dumplings, slightly add a little leek to taste, the umami taste is more prominent, more delicious.
At this time, the cabbage is particularly fresh and tender. Tender to no fiber, so fresh that people smirk, even its roots, is incomparable fresh! At this time, do not hurry to eat, as the weather slowly warms, it gradually becomes old and blossoms, and it loses its tender taste.
In addition, I would also like to recommend to you a cooking method about cabbage, which is also based on highlighting the umami taste - sea rainbow soup!
Haihong is also the seasonal seafood of this season, which is also the most delicious time, and it is very suitable for cooking with cabbage. To fry the pan in oil, simply add salt, beat an egg flower before coming out of the pan, and pour a few drops of sesame oil.
3 Do not eat
One does not eat raw and cold foods:
After the sting, the weather began to gradually warm up. Especially at noon, the sun is shining, and the warmth is very comfortable. At this point, I really want to eat an ice cream, or ice cream.
However, under the cold climate of spring, the body's perception of temperature is still stuck in winter, not spring. At the same time, when the seasons change, our stomach will be very weak. Therefore, eating raw and cold things at this time is not beneficial to the body.
Two do not eat beef and mutton:
Beef and mutton belong to the warm supplement class of food, which is very suitable for winter, but it is not suitable for spring. Because spring will be accompanied by "spring dryness", the body is easy to catch fire. And eating too much beef and mutton will aggravate the spring dryness.
Three do not eat anti-seasonal fruits:
Along with the seasonal fresh fruit on the market, many out-of-season fruits are also mixed and sold together. Maybe there is nothing wrong with the quality of these fruits, but just because they are out of season, we have to eat less, or even not eat.
In order to keep the out-of-season fruit the same as the freshly picked fruit during a long storage process, some methods may be borrowed. For example, use some chemical agents. Or maybe it will be stored, the storage is not yet ripe fruit, and then add some ripening agent, and so on, and so on.
So, in the case that we are skeptical of everything, let's eat less or not. After all, there are a lot of seasonal fruits in spring, which is enough for us to relieve our hunger!
