The live broadcast life of Lao Linzi in Northeast China

Chapter 393 Mountain Spinach (for Subscription)
"If you can't, just close your eyes and imagine yourself as a tree!"

With two newly 'unearthed' mountain onions in its mouth, the coal ball came to Li Yuan with a happy face.

Even with a layer of dark coat, the dust at the corner of the coal ball's mouth can be vaguely seen, as well as the clear traces of mud on the two front paws.

Seeing the appearance of the coal ball, Li Yuan didn't feel disgusted at all. He touched the coal ball's head, took the mountain onion over, and cleaned the dust off his body by the way.

It's actually normal for dogs in the countryside to be like this.

In particular, I have seen two guys, He Liqiu, who have mixed with me in various ponds, forests, fields, and lawns since they were young. Mud, green snow, and grass blades are often seen on their bodies.

And now Li Yuan has transformed from a pet Xiaobai into a dog washing expert...

In the past six months, Li Yuan has already mastered the matter of bathing coal briquettes.

And in order to bathe the briquettes, Li Yuan also specially bought a dog-specific bath tub for it. Every time it plays with water and takes a bath, it provides a one-stop service. The briquettes and nuts can be said to be very enjoyable.

"The mountain onions in this season are the most tender and the best time to eat."

"If you have friends who like to eat wild onions, you can take advantage of this season to buy more wild onions. They are very fresh. Although the later wild onions are also delicious, the taste is not as delicious as the first crop. On the contrary, the taste is more delicious. much richer."

In the mountain forest where it has just rained, the mountain onion looks particularly gratifying.

Because it came earlier, even some dewdrops falling from the trees can be vaguely seen on some mountain onions.

And the shallots were dug out much faster than usual in the wet land.

However, in the past two hours, Li Yuan had already dug up a lot of fresh shallots, and besides, the two little guys, briquettes and nuts, obviously helped a lot.

Of course, besides the shallots, Li Yuan also saw many other wild vegetables.

"Mountain spinach?"

"I didn't expect the mountain spinach to grow so quickly. This kind of mountain spinach is a good thing for making soup."

Li Yuan pointed to a few green wild vegetables on the ground, and introduced them to the fans in the live broadcast room.

"Look, this wild vegetable with green stems and a slightly purple base is mountain spinach. It is a perennial herb with stolons and dense fibrous roots growing from the lower nodes."

"It can be seen with the naked eye that this kind of spinach has a lot of stems. The spinach like this one has just grown, and there is only a little bit of purple at the base, but when it grows for more than a month, the height It can almost reach 20 or 30 centimeters."

"Don't look at the size of spinach, which is generally not big, but the big spinach in this mountain can grow up to 60 centimeters!"

Studio.

"That big?"

"Sixty? That's really not small!"

"At the same time, spinach, why does this thing grow so much bigger than the spinach you usually eat?"

"Maybe... because the nutrition in the mountains is better? So the plants grow bigger?"

"No, but the brain melon I went to see before is not much bigger!"

"The varieties are different. After all, one is spinach and the other is mountain spinach. The names are different, and of course the plants are different."

Li Yuan nodded.

"Well, although spinach and mountain spinach sound like a lot of plants, there is a difference in taste."

"Mountain spinach like this usually grows in mountain forests above 700 meters above sea level. It is a very popular wild vegetable in Northeast China."

"However, as far as I know, this wild vegetable also exists in other provinces, but their name is different."

Studio.

"Yes, yes, AH on the left, we have mountain spinach on our side, and there are quite a lot of them on the roadside and in the grass."

"This thing seems to like growing in bushes and wet places..."

"I saw mountain spinach!"

"If I remember correctly... this thing is on our side, it seems to be called a lantern head!"

"There are a lot of them on the side of the road! But the mountain spinach over there is not that big, and there are fewer people eating it."

"We call this dish donkey ears here."

"Donkey ears? What a strange name!"

"I remember... mountain spinach seems to be medicinal, right? An old Chinese doctor came to us to buy this kind of wild vegetable before, saying that it is used for curing diseases."

Li Yuan: "Well, spinach is a whole herb that can be used as medicine. It is often used as a diuretic, lowers blood pressure, and treats symptoms such as gonorrhea and scrofula. It can also be made into herbal tea, which can be brewed and used at ordinary times."

"There are actually many names for this kind of mountain spinach. In addition to the lantern head and donkey ears mentioned by the fans in the live broadcast room just now, some places also call it wheel vegetable and clam grass."

"In spring, it is the season to eat the young leaves of spinach, and the young stems of this spinach are also edible."

"However, mountain spinach has a strong medicinal taste, and it is not sticky at all, and its texture is relatively rough, so many people don't like the taste of mountain spinach."

"It is also because of this taste, so I suggest that if you want to taste the taste of this mountain spinach, you must first blanch the mountain spinach before making it, then soak it in cold water and then rub it with your hands. This takes out the bitterness in the spinach.”

"Besides, wild spinach is different from other wild vegetables. It doesn't taste good when fried, but it can be eaten with other foods."

Studio.

"The taste of mountain spinach... is really hard to describe."

"It's hard to say anything, but it's not delicious."

"I think it's okay! Cooking with preserved eggs tastes really good!"

"It's true that radishes and cabbages have their own preferences!"

"Can spinach be eaten with preserved eggs? Then I must try it!"

"How to eat together? I like to eat preserved eggs!"

"This... the method of making it is a bit troublesome. I have only eaten it twice. Anyway, there are salted egg yolks, bamboo shoots, dried shrimps... so many ingredients, I really can't tell!"

Li Yuan thought for a while, and then asked: "This friend said this dish is winter bamboo shoots and spinach, right?"

Studio.

"That's right! It's winter bamboo shoots and spinach!"

"Winter bamboo shoots and spinach? What kind of dish is this, is it delicious?"

"I've never heard of it either."

"Where is this dish from?"

"It should be in the south, after all, eating bamboo shoots is more popular in the south."

"Wow, it's like learning something! Preserved eggs are my favorite! I also like bamboo shoots!"

Li Yuan: "Then... what a coincidence, I know how to cook this dish."

Studio.

"It wouldn't be so coincidental would it?"

"The anchor is awesome!"

"Really? You, the anchor, will do this too?"
