Spring is a wonderful season. Not only can you enjoy the tender buds, green leaves, and gorgeous flowers, but you can also eat a variety of delicious seasonal wild vegetables.
Isn’t it the season when the black locust flowers are blooming again? I remember when I was a child, when the fragrant black locust trees were fragrant, I had a wonderful time with my friends picking the black locust flowers together. The friends each had their own division of labor. Some used bamboo poles tied with sickles to break off the acacia flowers, while others picked up the acacia flowers under the trees. The little friends who were picking up black locust would pick up a handful of sweet flowers from time to time and stuff them into the mouths of themselves and their companions. Their mouths would immediately be filled with fragrance and a sense of satisfaction. You can take home the endless acacia flowers and cook porridge, omelettes and other delicious dishes.
Black locust, also known as acacia, is an invasive species. Its growth adaptability is very wide and it can grow in all parts of the country. The stems of black locust are covered with thorns and the flowers are white. The flowering period is from April to May. Our country has a long history of eating black locust flowers. In times of famine, it could be used as food to satisfy hunger, and now it has become a delicious food in people's mouths.
Black locust flowers are not only fragrant, but also have a hint of sweetness. They can not only be eaten raw, but can also be used to make various snacks. For example, you can ferment it to make wine, cook porridge, or make omelettes, etc. Black locust flower not only tastes good, but also has high nutritional value. It can also lower blood lipids, prevent vascular sclerosis, and beautify. Because the flowering period of black locust flowers is short, it can be dried or stored in the refrigerator, so that it can be eaten at any time when you want to eat it.
Black locust flowers are in bloom again. You can use the holidays to buy or pick them yourself, make your favorite delicacies and enjoy its wonderful taste.
