In terms of taste, the taste of shepherd's purse is better than that of dandelion. There is a lot of slurry in the leaves of dandelion. If eaten raw, it will have a slimy feel. If it is made into tea, it will have a bitter taste, and it also has its own unique flavor.

I don’t think everyone likes the taste of plants. Although shepherd’s purse will be a bit bitter when eaten raw, shepherd’s purse is generally not eaten raw. Eating it cooked can remove the bitterness and taste fragrant, so relatively speaking, shepherd’s purse tastes better.

Every year when the season comes in my hometown, many people will pick dandelions, and most of them will make dandelion tea after picking, which is also convenient for storage. Everyone in the countryside knows that dandelions are herbal medicines, and they are anti-inflammatory and sterilizing, especially for women.

Breast glands are good, so every year when the season comes, aunts in the countryside like to go picking dandelions together.

Shepherd's purse is also called Di Caizi in our area. Every year on March 3rd, every household will carry a basket to pick shepherd's purse, because in Hunan there is a traditional custom of cooking eggs with shepherd's purse on March 3rd. Every year on March 3rd, the aunts will

Carrying a basket, I went to dig shepherd's purse on the mountain ridge. The older generation in the countryside said that after eating shepherd's purse and boiled eggs on March 3, they would not have headaches all year round and they would be strong. Although boiled shepherd's purse and eggs could really prevent headaches.

It remains to be scientifically verified, but shepherd's purse is rich in vitamin A, vitamin C, carotene content, etc., which has certain effects on strengthening the body and preventing diseases.

When I was a child, I learned a text called "Digging for Shepherd's Purse". I felt very fresh about the eating methods in the text, but I was more curious because it successfully aroused my desire to eat a bowl of shepherd's purse to satisfy my taste buds.

After school at that time, I went to look for dandelions and shepherd's purse in the vegetable field. The leaves of the two looked very similar, and I couldn't tell them apart at the time.

Because I grew up in a rural area, I was still young at the time.

I mixed the two grasses and asked my parents when I got home. They said that the leaves of shepherd's purse are very round, while the leaves of dandelion are triangular and angular.

There is also a big difference at the roots. The stems of shepherd's purse near the roots are white, but the stems of dandelions are dark red or even gradient.

For rural people, shepherd's purse is as delicious as dandelion.

Shepherd's purse can be made into many delicacies, such as shepherd's purse dumplings, shepherd's purse pimple soup, and steamed shepherd's purse. Now that I think about it, I feel drooling.

Dandelion is also a wild vegetable with high medicinal value and high edible value. Especially in summer, you can dry the dandelion and make a cup of tea to cool down your inner anger.

Of course, shepherd's purse is not only a wild vegetable with high nutritional value.

It is also very valuable. It is also effective for gastric ulcers, colds, fever, and internal heat symptoms.

I think for rural people, whether it's shepherd's purse or dandelion, both are equally delicious.

Personally, I think dandelion is better. Dandelion has the functions of clearing heat and detoxifying, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial, diuretic and detoxifying, promoting metabolism, etc. It also has anti-cancer effects. It is very good for female friends’ breasts and gynecological problems, and it is also available now.

Many people like to use dandelion root to make tea and drink it, which can relieve internal heat.

Nicknamed the Queen of Herbal Medicine.

Dandelion belongs to the vegetable category in Li Shizhen's Compendium of Materia Medica. It has the same source of medicine and food and can be eaten for a long time.

But there is a problem with dandelion, that is, dandelion is slightly cold in nature and is not suitable for long-term consumption by people with yang deficiency, external cold, and weak spleen and stomach. If these people drink dandelion root tea, they may have diarrhea or cough.

At present, the more effective solution is to combine Xinhui red tangerine to make red tangerine and dandelion root tea.

After combining the roots, those with yang deficiency, external cold, and weak spleen and stomach will not have diarrhea or cough after drinking this.

This will be more suitable for the public.

More suitable for friends who smoke frequently.

If you want to simply remove heat, it is recommended to use green tangerine and dandelion root tea. This one uses Xinhui small green tangerine, paired with dandelion root tea and Xinhui green tangerine peel, which can eliminate accumulation and stagnation, protect cardiovascular system, and refresh the brain.

Refreshing and other effects.

The effect of removing heat is much better than that of simple dandelion root. Isn't there a saying that it is called a single prescription without a cure.

But you can't put too many other things in it. If you put too much, wouldn't it become a medicinal soup?

Okay, let's stop here. I won't go into details about citrus tea. Friends can search it by themselves. I hope it can help everyone.

Thanks.

From a purely eating perspective, shepherd's purse (jì) tastes more delicious, while dandelion is a bit bitter and not as fragrant as shepherd's purse.
