Are lettuce leaves edible? How to cook?

Stir-fry and eat it like stir-fried cabbage

Bamboo shoot leaves and tofu soup

Fresh lettuce leaves are also delicious. After cooking the lettuce, you can use the leftovers The leaves are used to make soup, killing two birds with one stone. The original recipe

required ham and chicken broth to be used for this soup, which obviously did not meet my requirements. But if nothing is added, the soup will

be too bland. Many soups will have this problem. My solution is to put a small amount of oyster mushrooms or seaweed, and then a small amount of white

pepper, and it will be ok. Because oyster mushrooms and seaweed are among the few vegetarian foods that taste very delicious on their own without the help of other ingredients. Needless to say, white pepper has the function of improving the flavor of soup. It is the most delicious food in China. Good white pepper is produced in Hainan

I forgot to bring some back when I had the chance to go there. I won’t go into the specific method of making this soup, just pay attention to the order of cooking.

When the water boils, put the oyster mushrooms first, wait until the flavor is cooked out, then add the tofu, and finally add the bamboo shoots and take it out of the pot. Add salt, white pepper

and sesame oil. In addition, I would like to say a few words about tofu. The best is marinated tofu, which is delicious for cooking and soup. However, it is difficult to buy it in supermarkets, but you can buy it in old-fashioned wet markets. There are mostly southern tofu, northern tofu, silk tofu, egg tofu and so on in supermarkets. Generally speaking, southern tofu is more delicious and tough when cooked, while silken tofu is better when eaten in hot pot. Northern tofu is better. Tofu and egg tofu

It is better for making soup and is very tender. In addition, when eating tofu while burning, it is better to cut it into larger pieces so that it is not easy to break into pieces. When making soup, it is better to cut into smaller pieces, which will make it easier to taste.
