water spinach, cold in nature and sweet in taste, is a shady food. It grows very interestingly, and the middle of the pole is empty. China's writing is hieroglyphics, and Chinese medicine also pays attention to hieroglyphics, and it is often said that form complements form. All hollow foods have roughly the same effect. For example, bamboo leaves have the function of clearing heat and diuresis, and lotus root has the function of clearing heat and cooling blood.

There are several ways to eat water spinach in my family:
1. Stir-fry, which tastes good. If you don't have cold or heat, you can put some garlic to correct the coldness of water spinach; If there is heat in the small intestine, there is no need to put garlic. This is to correct the bias of the body with the bias of food and achieve the balance of yin and yang of the body.
2. pinch off the tender leaves of water spinach, and when cooking noodles, put them in the noodle soup, and they will be cooked after a little boiling. They are delicious when eaten with noodles.
3. Another interesting practice is to fry soybeans separately from the stalks of water spinach. During the frying process, soybeans get into the stalks of water spinach one by one. This dish is not only interesting to eat, but also therapeutic. Soybeans tonify qi, and water spinach is good for dampness, which is suitable for hot and humid summer.
Ordinary home cooking is not only fun, but also full of wisdom.
