Local vegetable cake

Local cabbage, also known as "shepherd's purse", is a wild plant that grows green with white roots and blooms dotted with small white flowers.
Local dishes are a panacea. There is not only a folk proverb that "on the third day of March in the spring, shepherd's purse is a panacea", but also a saying that "eating shepherd's purse in spring competes with immortal pills." In traditional Chinese medicine, local vegetables have extensive medicinal value and are known as "licorice in vegetables". To this end, I also specifically searched for the medical value of shepherd's purse. Chinese medicine believes that shepherd's purse is sweet and cool in nature. It belongs to the liver, spleen and kidney meridians, and has the effects of harmonizing the spleen, promoting water, stopping bleeding, and improving eyesight. Therefore, in order to eliminate fire, avoid rheumatism and treat waist and leg pain, in our hometown in Hunan, every household cooks local vegetables eggs on March 3 every year, and the number of eggs must be odd, because the prescription is also known as "unilateral" in Hunan dialect, so the number of eggs must be odd.
