On a sunny spring day, the family sits in the yard, bathing in the warm sun, wrapping the dumplings, and enjoying the steaming hot dumplings out of the pot, enjoying the deliciousness of nature's gift, and thinking about it, I feel happy. ......
Spring if I'm in the old country, warm afternoon, will certainly be with my mother, with a small basket, go to the field to dig chestnuts, feel the infinite beauty of the spring light, enjoy the fun of labor.
Every time I think of this, I feel it is a very pleasant thing. Now drifting away, whenever I see everything about my hometown, it will touch the softest place in my heart, uncontrollable homesickness, miss family, home is always the place of my soul, loved ones is my eternal attachment and miss ......
I hope my distant hometown, in the process of new rural construction is getting better and better, my family will always be happy and well!
I have not dug, others sent, packaged filling to eat is okay, the cost of oil.
We go to the field every year to dig chestnuts, buns are very delicious.
We used to go to the field every year to dig up the water, and the food was very good.
That is probably the pleasure of the city people, we rural people do not eat wild vegetables, both full of chestnuts, but also as it affects the crops of weeds to get rid of and throw away.
Winter has quietly left, the spring of 2022 along with the Winter Olympics in Beijing gladly arrived! Just into the early spring, the first warm and cold, pay attention to the weather changes, but also have to add or subtract clothes in time oh!
Shepherd's purse, is our people here in late winter and early spring like a wild vegetable! Located on the Yangtze River, we like to make flatbread (wontons) filled with capers, spring rolls with capers and shredded pork, or caper meatballs.
All of the caper fillings are the same as the usual fillings, just because it is a seasonal vegetable, there is a kind of refreshing flavor, so this time of the year, people will often dig up some wild vegetables back to make their favorite dishes!
By the end of March, shepherd's purse will bloom, old. It's not very tasty, seasonal vegetables, the flavor of the field!
Early in the urban and rural areas, I went to dig every year.
As a hobby, it was fun! When I was at home, I rode my bike to dig, and dug a knitting bag full of them. Picking and washing is more trouble, eat when the flavor is delicious, Sui Nao dipping sauce, buns are good. The old flavor!
Will.
The love of food is also a manifestation of the love of life. dug up the chestnut first cleaned up, remove the yellow leaves and old roots, soaked in salt water and rinsed repeatedly, part of the hot pot used to shabu-shabu. Part of the blanch and prepare for use. Shepherd's purse blanching pot of water and a little salt, vegetable oil (blanched vegetables, fresh and beautiful color), water boiling blanch shepherd's purse, do not blanch too long in order to avoid destroying the nutritional value of shepherd's purse. Fish out the water chestnuts over cool water after drying the water part of the ziplock bag frozen, eat as you go. Part of the package caper filling dumplings, caper filling ravioli. Can be vegetarian or meat, as you wish. You can also directly blanch the chestnut after cold food.
Dig chestnuts while early, too late chestnuts will be old, affecting the taste. And if there are caper fields near the wheat field, sometimes encounter farmers to wheat medicine, although I do not know what medicine, but safety first, after all, is to eat the belly to go things. So must pay special attention. There is also a year, went to a new place to dig to the chestnut, go home to clean up when the chestnut roots and old leaves inside the white maggot-like worms ...... so that you want to eat some chestnut is not easy [wipe sweat]
Digging chestnut, although it is quite hard, but the spring blossom of the recovery of all things, and a piece of grass everywhere! The process of digging is still quite enjoyable.
