Summer is hot and dry, so people get angry easily and don't like eating. "Getting angry" is more likely to happen in dry and hot weather. "Getting angry" is a folk saying, also known as "hot air".

So what vegetables are suitable for eating in summer, which is good for clearing heat and reducing fire? Wax gourd, lettuce, cucumber, mung bean sprouts, Chinese cabbage, bitter gourd, celery, towel gourd, bitter chrysanthemum and Dutch beans are all vegetables suitable for summer.

Exercise:
If you want to make delicious dishes, you should first choose loofah: you should choose light-colored loofah, which is tender, smooth and delicious when fried, and the darker the loofah, the older it is. Then look at the lines, generally choose loofah with smooth skin. If the lines are prominent and obvious, the loofah will get old. Look at the shape of loofah, choose a long and straight loofah to buy, the greater the curvature of the root of loofah, the older it is. Finally, look at the feel and choose the one with strong feel. Pinch it by hand first, the slightly elastic ones are fresher, and the softer ones are older.
Scrape off the loofah skin, not too much, leaving a thin turquoise color, wash it with clear water and cut off the head and tail. Four melons have a rough taste and are generally eaten after peeling.
