Fresh Toona sinensis buds picked from trees are safe to eat immediately, while the content of nitrite in Toona sinensis buds bought from the market will increase greatly because of the transportation process. If the leaves fall off at the touch, a lot of nitrite will be produced.

Nitrite reacts with meat and turns red!

Blanching can remove nitrate and nitrite!

The best is Toona sinensis scrambled eggs! Fried bamboo shoots are also good!
