Day lily

The farmer has been growing day lily for decades, but he has never eaten fresh day lily. He only eats it after it has been dried. This is because there is a substance "colchicine" in daylily. Although it is non-toxic in itself, it is highly toxic after being absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract and oxidized into "colchicine" in the body. Therefore, day lilies are boiled in water and then dried in the sun. In fact, this is also a way to detoxify.

Radish

Dried radish strips are a favorite of many people. In the past, when conditions were not good, every household in rural areas would have dried radish strips. Because sun-dried radish strips are very shelf-stable, you can eat them for a whole year.

Eggplant

Many people don’t know that eggplants can be dried and taste even more delicious than fresh ones. The method is also simple. You only need to wash the eggplant, cut it into slices, and dry it in the sun until there is no moisture.

Cucumber

Dried cucumbers are farmers’ favorite, and they are made at home every year. The method of making it is to cut the cucumber lengthwise first, then use a spoon to scoop out the flesh in between, then dry it in the sun for one to two days, and then put it in a jar.
