There are some ingredients that will be gradually eliminated by better substitutes as time goes by. In ancient times, there were six cereals "Zizania latifolia, rice, millet, millet, wheat and Zizania latifolia". It is said that Zizania latifolia was infected by a fungus called smut, and the rice was mutated and eliminated.

The cauliflower I want to talk about today is also eating ingredients that have suddenly disappeared, or there are very few people who eat them. When I was a child living in the north, cauliflower is a common cold salad. But whenever I eat a meal, this cold cauliflower is a must. Every family has a big plate of cold cauliflower on the table on holidays. To tell the truth, this dish is really tasteless, but its taste is crisp. In addition, the price at that time was quite low, which made it so popular. Later generations ate less, which may also be caused by its dull taste.

Gelidium cauliflower looks strange, and it will melt into jelly when heated. Many people who don't understand it think it is edible glue, and some people believe it, including my father. Every time he eats this dish, he is disgusted and always says that this edible glue has nothing to eat! It's better to eat some radish nutrition. In fact, the nutritional content of cauliflower is not low, not to mention edible gum. It is a marine algae called "algae boutique".

Gracilaria lemaneiformis, also known as Gracilaria lemaneiformis, grows on rocks at the bottom of the sea. The newly picked Gracilaria lemaneiformis is black, and it takes a long time to be washed and exposed to the sun before it becomes white and transparent for us to eat. Like algae plants, Gracilaria lemaneiformis is extremely rich in vitamins, minerals and algae proteins, which can improve immunity, reduce blood pressure with low fat, nourish yin and reduce fire. Simply speaking, it is more nourishing than meat. You can eat more in hot summer, a traditional practice to share with you.

This dish used to be particularly popular in Shandong, Henan and other places. It is really from snacks to big ones. Now it is sold less and less. I met it in a supermarket a few days ago and even asked for one or two 1 yuan. Fortunately, it will become a lot after being soaked. The cauliflower is refreshing and delicious, and it tastes crisp. The content of various nutrients is not low. No matter how expensive it is, you should eat a little.

1. Gelidium can't be soaked in hot water, it will become sticky and melt.

2. The cold cauliflower needs sauce, because the cauliflower is dense and difficult to taste, and it is easier to hang seasonings with sauce. If only soy sauce is used for seasoning, the cauliflower will taste very weak. Ingredients can also be used with cucumber and carrot.
