"Chinese toon" is the young leaf of a woody plant. In spring, when plants have just sprouted, they can be picked and eaten when the young leaves grow to 8-10 centimeters long, so they are also called "Chinese toon buds". At this time, the appearance of the leaves is dark purple, but after being scalded with boiling water, the color begins to turn green, which tastes fragrant and tender. "Toona sinensis" is very seasonal. The picking period of a Toona sinensis tree is only about half a month. However, after the second crop, the Toona sinensis will not taste good and will taste worse and worse.
"Chinese toon" is a good seasonal vegetable that most northerners like. The young leaves of Chinese toon contain volatile aromatic substances such as toon, which can strengthen the spleen, appetizer and increase appetite. Of course, friends who don't like that smell are a different story, haha! "Toona sinensis" contains vitamin E and trace amounts of sex hormones and other substances, which have the effects of anti-aging and nourishing yang and nourishing yin, so it is known as "pro-pregnancy agent".
"Toona sinensis" has the effects of clearing heat, dampness, diuretic and detoxifying. It is a good medicine for the auxiliary treatment of enteritis, diarrhea, and urinary tract infections. The volatile smell of Chinese toon can penetrate the epidermis of ascaris, preventing the ascaris from adhering to the intestinal wall and being expelled from the body. Therefore, it can be used as an auxiliary treatment for ascaris in children. Toona sinensis is also rich in vitamin C, carotene, etc., which helps to enhance the body's immune function. Regular consumption can also lubricate the skin, so it is also a good food for health care and beauty.
"Chinese toon" can be eaten by the general public. However, Chinese toon belongs to hair, and eating too much will often induce the recurrence of chronic diseases. Therefore, patients with chronic diseases should eat less or not.
There are many ways to eat "Chinese toon", which are commonly eaten by northerners: Chinese toon mixed with tofu, Chinese toon mixed with eggs, fried Chinese toon fish, fried Chinese toon meatballs, Chinese toon mixed with sesame sauce noodles, Chinese toon mixed with fried sauce noodles, Chinese toon mixed with fried sauce noodles, Chinese toon mixed noodles with pepper oil, Chinese toon pancakes, etc., can list a lot of ways to eat, which makes me craving, and my saliva is about to come out, haha!
Today, let's win the first prize and try it, cook some delicious food and share it with everyone. The Chinese toon I use was just brought by a good friend from the south. Although the color is not as beautiful as the Chinese toon tree in my yard and the fragrance is not very strong, I am still very happy to eat it early! Since my friend is from the south, people don't eat Chinese toon, so she can't appreciate the strange smell she thinks it's fragrant, but I like it and I think it's fragrant, haha! Every year, whenever a friend is free, she will ask someone to bring some to me or express some to me. In the past few years, I have been the first to eat Chinese toon in Beijing. I feel so happy!
