Toona sinensis bud is the best of wild vegetables and the only edible leaf in our hometown. Toona sinensis buds are rich in protein, calcium, phosphorus, carotene and vitamins, and the roots, bark and seeds of Toona sinensis trees are of medicinal value.
Toona sinensis is deeply loved by everyone because of its unique aromatic smell. Toona sinensis bud can be made into cold Toona sinensis bud, Tofu Tofu, Toona sinensis scrambled eggs and Toona sinensis porridge. Toona sinensis buds should be fresh and tender, and must be blanched before cooking, because Toona sinensis buds contain nitrite and nitrate, which is not good for human body.

Now the value of dandelion is getting higher and higher, and there are also small-scale artificial cultivation, but Bian Xiao still thinks that wild dandelion is the best. Dandelion is rich in vitamins and minerals, which can strengthen the liver, lower cholesterol, reduce fire, assist in the treatment of mammary gland hyperplasia, diuresis and improve urinary system inflammation.
Dandelion can be made into tea or delicious dishes. The easiest way to eat dandelion is to dip it in soy sauce, and the cold salad is also good and delicious. It should be noted that dandelion tea is a cold drink. Usually, people with spleen and stomach deficiency or cold constitution, and people who are afraid of cold due to yang deficiency can't drink dandelion tea. If they want to drink, add Lycium barbarum to neutralize the coolness of dandelion.
