In autumn, the taste and price of many wild vegetables are no less than those of home-grown vegetables, and even tend to dominate the forefront of vegetables. For example, we are most familiar with pine fungus, sunflower, daylily, amaranth, lotus, mint, purslane, pumpkin vine, pumpkin flowers, sweet potato leaves, etc. Among them, daylily is a wild cauliflower that everyone is familiar with. It not only has a delicate appearance and can be viewed as an ornamental, but also has good food and medicinal value.

1. Pine fungus

The south is rainy and has rich vegetation, especially pine trees. Therefore, after the rain in summer and autumn, there will always be golden-colored pine mushrooms that look like small umbrellas and poke their heads out from the soft ground. They are so cute.

It is a good thing to harvest them before they are fully stretched, to eat or sell them.

If you want to eat it by yourself, first soak the pine mushrooms in salt water for about ten minutes, then wash them clean. They are good for stir-frying, stir-frying with meat, or making soup with meatballs. It is a delicious mountain vegetable with unique taste, fresh color and delicious taste!

If you want to sell it at the market, your hard work in picking it will not be in vain, and you will definitely get a good price!

2. Yanghe

Yanghe is a special wild vegetable in the southern mountainous areas, but it is not available in the north. Because it likes to grow in cool, ventilated, warm and humid high-altitude mountainous areas. Therefore, it has become an exclusive "mountain treasure" in the southern mountainous areas. It was once called a "longevity dish" by the Japanese.

Yanghe is highly adaptable and disease-resistant, and can grow naturally without any management. Every summer and autumn, the purple-red buds sprout out of the ground around the mother plant, which is very eye-catching.

At this time, pluck the newly popped buds, wash them, cut them into shreds, and stir-fry them with green peppers. The unique fragrance and taste will instantly whet your appetite, and you won’t be able to stop eating! It is an appetizing mountain delicacy with unique flavor!

3. Pumpkin flowers and pumpkin vines

In the past, people planted pumpkins in the mountains and fields for the melons on the vines. However, I don’t know since when, people no longer like to eat melons, but instead eat melon flowers and melon vines, which are said to be very healthy.

Eating pumpkin flowers and pumpkin vines is very simple. Pumpkin flowers are perfect for making soup. Just heat a small spoonful of vegetable oil to 70% to 80%, add an appropriate amount of water and salt, bring it to a boil, and add the melon flowers; you can also add it to the meatball soup and cook together.

4. Day lily

Day lily is a wild cauliflower that everyone is familiar with. It not only has a delicate appearance and is suitable for viewing, but also has good food and medicinal value. It has the reputation of "the treasure of the green field".

After daylily is steamed at high temperature, it is good for cold salad, stir-fry, and stew. It is a delicious, refreshing, appetizing and delicious dish. It has the functions of stopping bleeding, reducing inflammation, clearing away heat and promoting diuresis, improving eyesight and calming the nerves. Folks also use it to induce lactation.
