That is to say, eggplant, wax gourd, green beans and potatoes are not qualified to be called green vegetables, and a meal without green leafy vegetables is not a complete meal, according to some southerners.
Then, in summer, what dishes will be put on the table where southerners have to eat green vegetables? In summer, there are not many delicious green leafy vegetables in the south. If they are delicious in the season, there will be no shortage of water spinach.
Ipomoea aquatica, also known as Ipomoea aquatica, is named after its hollow stems. Guangzhou calls it a general dish and a watercress. There are a lot of benefits of eating water spinach, besides relaxing bowels and detoxifying, it can also prevent infection. Eating regularly in summer can also relieve summer heat, detoxify, cool blood and prevent dysentery.
Water spinach is an aquatic plant in Lingnan, which can be planted in dry land or paddy field.
Straight and hollow outside, long and soft stalks and thin and long leaves are crowded into a pile. Stems and leaves are often twisted into bundles, and sometimes there are purple or white trumpet-shaped flowers on them.
This water spinach was originally a native of China. Water spinach is a famous dish in the fairy tale of "List of Gods" in ancient China.
Before Bigan was to be dug by da ji, Bigan burned the symbol in the invitation card according to Jiang Ziya's posting, and put it in the water to drink, so that the five internal organs could be protected temporarily after digging the heart. Jiang Ziya asked him to go out of the city to find an old woman selling spinach after being dug up, and asked her, "A dish can live without heart, and a person can't live without heart?" If auntie says "alive", Bigan will survive; if auntie says "not alive", Bigan will die. As a result, the aunt said that she could not live, so Bigan vomited blood on the spot and died.
People will die if they don't have a heart. The old lady is right. It's not that they can't live without a heart. It has nothing to do with the old lady, and it has nothing to do with water spinach.
Water spinach can be made into soup, fried or boiled. The garlic spinach is a daily recommended practice.
Ingredients: water spinach, garlic cloves, ginger slices, salt.
Practice:
1, wash the water spinach and cut it into sections. It is best to crush the stem of the water spinach by hand, which will make it more delicious, and the garlic will be chopped into garlic.
2. Add ginger slices and garlic into the pot and stir fry.
3. Then add the spinach and stir-fry until it is soft and cooked. Add salt and chicken essence and stir-fry evenly. Turn off the fire and serve.
? But the best thing is, after boiling the water spinach, take out the cooked lard with sauteed shallots from the refrigerator, scoop a spoonful, then drop a few drops of soy sauce on the leaves, and watch the solidified lard slowly melt and penetrate into the water spinach. The delicious taste doesn't need meat to blend.
Or boil the water spinach with boiling water, pour it with sufu sauce and shredded Chili, and eat it with it. It is already very delicious. Shuikou sufu produced in Kaiping is fragrant and smooth, which wakes up the stomach and improves the taste. If you don't like fermented bean curd, soy sauce can also be used instead. If you stir-fry with shrimp sauce, your favorite person will feel incomparable fragrance, and you can send two bowls of white rice.
Another way is to stir-fry water spinach with minced shrimp, mixed with Chili sauce and satay sauce. In Malaysia and Singapore, it is called "Malay scenery", which is also first-class to accompany rice.
However, the water spinach without rich seasoning is extremely difficult to eat. In the old days, when I was studying, because the water spinach was thick and long, and the price was low, the school canteen would eat salted water to cook water spinach for most of the summer. Because I don't want to put oil in it, the water spinach is boiled into a black and tangled ball, which makes people feel daunting when they see it. The taste is sluggish and tasteless, which makes people avoid it.
Many sources of delicious food in this world are inseparable from the addition of condiments.
