Mulberry trees grow on mulberry trees. When it is ripe, its fruit is red and purple, and it tastes sour and sweet. At the earliest time, it was a tonic for ancient emperors. In reality, scientists found through experiments that mulberry is rich in active protein, vitamins, amino acids and other substances, especially anthocyanins, which are several times that of grapes. It can effectively delay aging and resist oxidation, and it is a rare food in beauty beauty.
I remember when I was a child, I walked through a wheat field behind my home and came to a hillside. There are several tall mulberry trees on it. Use mulberry leaves to raise silkworms, and the silkworms are white and strong. What makes me most happy is watching mulberry trees turn from blue to purple in late spring and early summer! Just at that time, people didn't know that the glossy mulberry could have so many functions. For example, the medicinal value of mulberry is very extensive, and its fatty acids can effectively prevent fat hardening and decompose fat. Hey, isn't this helpful for losing weight? In addition, due to the dark color of mulberry, Chinese medicine believes that it is helpful to improve liver and kidney problems, such as thirst, insomnia and dreaminess, backache and tinnitus. People who are deficient in blood and essence can eat more and improve the quality of male tadpoles, so men who want to improve the fertility rate can eat more mulberries.
Then what makes me most happy is that mulberries can also be used to make wine and vinegar! As a young woman who likes fruit wine very much, I tried to make wine with plums and bayberry at home. Each fruit has a different flavor. After mulberry wine and mulberry vinegar are made, the red color is particularly beautiful. The practice is also very simple. Buy fresh mulberries and soak them in salt water for a few minutes. After washing, be sure to dry the water on the surface, put it in an oil-free and water-free glass bottle, and then pour in low-alcohol liquor. You can put some rock sugar according to your own taste, and then bottle and seal it. It will be filtered out in a month or so. The method of mulberry vinegar is relatively simple, and it is also fresh mulberry. It is best to prepare aged vinegar or vinegar brewed from pure grain. After washing mulberries, dry the water on the surface. The height of vinegar should not exceed that of mulberry. Sealed in the shade for about 3~4 months, you can open the bottle for drinking. Of course, it will be diluted with cold water, otherwise it will be very sour.
To sum up, Mulberry is especially rich in medicinal value and dietetic value. This season is the season when fruits are ripe. What are you waiting for? Go buy something to eat.
