The situation in each place is different, and the types of vegetables they like to eat are also different. Most of them are based on the vegetables produced in the season. Generally speaking, cabbage is eaten the most in rural areas and lasts the longest time.
The vegetables we never tire of eating in northwest Guizhou include Houttuynia cordata, peppers, and mustard greens. These are the only three vegetables we never tire of eating all year round. The most commonly eaten vegetables are cabbage, lotus root, mustard greens, and white radish. seedling. Because the northwestern region of Guizhou is located in an alpine climate, pickled cabbage and bean soup is the main dish in rural areas all year round. Pickled cabbage is made from mustard greens and white radish seedlings. Once made, you can eat it for half a month, and some can be eaten for a year without going bad. Houttuynia cordata can be found everywhere in rural areas. It is a good vegetable that helps digestion and stimulates appetite.
Generally, what you eat the most and the longest time to eat in rural areas depends on the vegetables that each household grows in the four seasons of the year. You can eat what you grow. In rural areas, unlike in cities, you can buy fresh vegetables in the market and rotate them. Vegetable varieties. In spring and summer, they are Chinese cabbage, tender beans, peas, broad beans, lotus flowers, potatoes, cucumbers, eggplants, and tender pumpkins. In autumn and winter, they are carrots, white radish, spinach, cabbage, pea tips, etc.
Farmers eat mostly vegetables they grow themselves. If they take a long time to eat and which the family likes to eat, they should grow more of them.
Farmers like to eat seasonal vegetables. They start planting and eating vegetables in the vegetable garden in spring. The earliest vegetable that can be eaten is leeks. I believe that the longest vegetable eaten by many farmers' families is leeks. And everyone never gets tired of eating it, because leeks can be cooked in a variety of ways and can be used to make many delicious foods and dishes.
At the beginning of spring, farmers quickly tidy up their vegetable gardens, take care of the newly sprouted leeks awakened by the spring breeze, apply soil fertilizer and water them, so in the warm spring, the leeks grow happily. Once it rises, it will soon grow to a height that can be harvested. After cutting one crop, we will continue to fertilize and water. In this way, we can eat leeks one crop after another. We can eat them from spring to before frost.
In addition to leeks, farmers also grow some beans, eggplants, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, etc. These are home-cooked dishes that are sown in spring and eaten starting in summer. Among them, cucumbers and beans We can plant continuously, finish one crop, and plant another. When vegetables are in season, farmers always have plenty on their tables, and we can eat various vegetables in different ways.
In addition to the above vegetables, we also need to plant several loofahs, winter melons, pumpkins, and square melons. Luffa is eaten tender. Except for loofah, the other melons are not afraid of aging. The older they are, the better. , pick these melons after frost, and save them for winter when you get tired of cabbage and radish.
Now we can plant radishes. After the beginning of autumn, we will plant Chinese cabbage. Radishes and cabbage are vegetables that farmers eat in winter. Chinese cabbage is easy to store, while radish can be pickled and eaten as pickles. , when we get tired of boiling cabbage or shredded radish in winter, we can make stuffed buns and dumplings stuffed with cabbage or radish, and then those old pumpkins, winter melons and the like.
Farmers eat vegetables like this all year round, almost every year, starting with leeks in spring and ending with radishes and cabbage in winter. All vegetables like to be eaten by themselves because they taste better. a little.
As long as they are vegetables grown by ourselves, we never tire of eating them. We occasionally buy some vegetables out of season, sometimes to entertain guests, sometimes to increase the variety of vegetables during the holidays. We eat Most of them grow their own vegetables.
In rural areas, farmers generally grow their own vegetables to eat. They grow corresponding vegetables in different seasons. For example, after returning to the countryside, they also cultivate the land in the yard and grow vegetables to eat. What are the vegetables that people in rural areas eat the most, eat for the longest time, and never get tired of eating? The rural side dishes include water spinach, leeks, green onions, long beans, peppers, and pumpkin vines. Let’s talk about them in detail below:
1. Water spinach
Speaking of water spinach, many people like to eat it. The water spinach grown on the farm is tender and tender. It is very fragrant when stir-fried with some garlic. Moreover, the leaves of the water spinach are picked, and the tender stems can be cut into small pieces and used to stir-fry eggs or stir-fry pork, which is also very delicious. If you like sour food, you can also use the vegetable stems to soak in sour food and then stir-fry them, which is especially good for serving as porridge.
Of course, another important point is that water spinach is particularly easy to grow. After planting it from cuttings, you can pick it and eat it and then fertilize it. The longer it grows, the more lush it will be. You can eat it for several months after planting it, just like in the countryside. The weather in the southern rural areas is relatively warm, so you can start planting side dishes in March and you can eat them until October. Water spinach is also grown in the fields of rural side dishes.
2. Leeks and green onions
Speaking of leeks, some people may not like the taste. It is true that the taste of leeks alone is not that good, but it is made with other ingredients. Food, the chive flavor is not that strong, it is very delicious, and there are many ingredients that can be paired with it; eggs and duck eggs have a bit of fishy smell, and they are very delicious when fried with leeks. I don’t think it is fishy at all. Pork liver, chicken offal The same goes for duck offal, whether fried with pork or mixed with stuffing to make dumplings and buns, it is still so delicious.
In addition, if the weather is suitable, leeks will continue to grow after being cut. Like the leeks grown in my hometown, they can grow even in winter and are not frozen. It can be said that they are grown all year round. All can eat leeks; the same goes for onions, which are not difficult to grow and can be eaten once they are grown. They are very durable and many people like to eat them.
3. Long beans
Speaking of long beans, they are generally grown in rural areas. You can plant them on a shelf in the yard. You can plant them when the weather gets warm in April. Wait until the long beans You can pick and eat them every day. If you plant more, you will feel like you can’t finish them all. It’s like my mother used to plant peanuts in the peanut field. They grew a lot in the summer, and my mother even picked them and sold them.
Relatively speaking, long beans do not absorb much oil and are delicious stir-fried without getting greasy. They are also delicious when fried with pork or eggs; if you want to change the texture, you can use them to dry the beans. Or soak the pickled beans and use them to cook vegetables or stew meat. It is a mouth-watering delicacy.
4. Chili peppers
Speaking of vegetables that people in rural areas eat more and last longer, chili peppers are of course indispensable. They are delicious stir-fried with garlic and onions, and even better with meat. It’s delicious, and it’s not difficult to grow peppers. You can plant seedlings in March and April every year. When they bloom and bear fruit, a lot of peppers will grow and you can eat them for several months. I also planted some local side dishes this year, and you can pick them every day. It feels so good to eat stir-fried meat, but we were attacked by insects later, so I didn’t spray any pesticide, so it didn’t grow as much. There is still one in the ground, and I picked a few peppers a few days ago, and I plan to use them for soaking. Sour chilli.
Of course, if the weather is not so cold, peppers can also survive the winter. For example, the capsicums grown by my mother in my hometown’s vegetable field did not wither in winter and will grow well next spring when the weather is good. .
5. Pumpkin vine
Some people grow pumpkin vines to eat pumpkins. In fact, eating pumpkin vines is also very cost-effective, and you will not get tired of eating pumpkin vines, whether it is the vine or the leaves. , it’s very fragrant when cooked with lard; I grow my own pumpkin vines as a side dish in my hometown. I started transplanting and planting them in March. They were quite lush by May Day. You can pick the vines and eat them. I have been eating them for a few days. I still pick them and eat them, and I have been eating them for a long time; of course, many people like to eat pumpkin vines, and they are easy to grow. Like sweet potato vines, they still grow after being picked. However, pumpkin vines have burrs on them and need to be peeled before they can be cooked and eaten, which is a bit trouble.
If we simply talk about the vegetables that are eaten the most and last the longest, they can only be Chinese cabbage, potatoes, radishes, etc. But if you want to ask which vegetables you can never tire of eating, it depends on your personal taste. Because everyone has their own preferences for radish and pickles, some people like to eat celery, some like to eat leeks, and some people like to eat green onions dipped in noodle sauce. Let’s first talk about the vegetables that are eaten the most and last the longest.
There may be very few people who don’t like to eat Chinese cabbage. Of course, this refers to northerners first. I don’t know much about what southerners eat in winter. The so-called northerners also refer to us Shandong people. Further north are the three northeastern provinces, and it seems that the most popular food is potatoes. Therefore, even the vegetables that are eaten the most and last the longest time have regional differences. Every winter, what we Shandong people eat most is radish and cabbage.
Under normal circumstances, it is eaten until the second day of the second lunar month in the spring of the next year. Because on the second day of February, the weather starts to get warmer, and moss will grow inside the cabbage. The moss will bloom into small yellow flowers, and then the cabbage will be inedible. It’s not that you can’t eat it, it’s just that when you cook cabbage and eat it again, the taste of cabbage changes and it no longer tastes like winter cabbage. Apart from cabbage, perhaps the most popular vegetable eaten in winter is radish. Radish dumplings, radish buns, radish stewed vermicelli, radish and soy sauce dishes, etc. These are all must-haves for us rural people in winter.
In addition to these two, there are also carrots and potatoes, which are also vegetables often eaten in winter.
Speaking of dishes that people will never get tired of eating, you really need to think about it, because ordinary vegetables will not be liked after eating for a few meals. This reminds me of one year when I went to Harbin and lived there for a summer. The Harbin beans and potatoes stewed were as if I had eaten them all summer. I don’t know if it’s because the potatoes and beans grown in the black soil have a special taste, or for other reasons, but I didn’t get tired of the beans and potatoes that I ate that summer. And I remember very clearly that when I first went to Harbin, I weighed 84 kilograms. When I came back in the fall, I had grown to more than 90 kilograms.
The vegetables on the black soil make me think about them all the time. So after I returned to Shandong, I still wanted to buy the kind of beans from the Northeast. I went to the supermarket to buy them several times. They looked like the beans from the Northeast. However, when I bought them and cooked them after I bought them, they never tasted the same as before. To this day, I particularly miss the beans from Northeast China.
In addition to the kind of beans from Northeast China, my favorite thing to eat is leeks. Although I have a bad stomach and can't eat leeks since I was a child, I just like them and don't want to eat other vegetables. People say that June leeks stink to death, but I like to eat even old June leeks. I don’t know if anyone has the same hobbies as me. They like to eat old leeks and beans from Northeast China.
If you don’t eat meat for a long time, your mouth will water. If you don’t eat meat for a long time, you will get a headache.
Meat and vegetables are both indispensable meals for people today. If they don’t eat meat for a day, they will be unbearable, especially those who do physical work. If they don’t have enough meat and fat, they will lose strength. However, just eating meat is not enough. If you eat meat every day, you will definitely not be able to eat it. Therefore, meat and vegetables should be eaten together. There are many types of vegetables that we usually eat. If we eat certain vegetables for a long time, we will get tired of them. So are there any vegetables that people can eat for a long time?
There is a type of fruits and vegetables that can be eaten raw as fruits, or cooked and eaten like ordinary vegetables, that is, they have the characteristics of both fruits and vegetables. Common fruits and vegetables of this type include tomatoes from the Solanaceae family
