Seeing this topic, many people will wonder: can this plant really be eaten? That's right, it can be eaten. And it tastes pretty good, too. The simplest way is just to peel its stems and eat them directly. However, the most common method is still to use it to make soup. Since many people do not know how to prepare it, here is a detailed explanation.

1. Stewed lean meat soup

(1) About the ingredients: not many ingredients are used. About 500 grams of lean pork; 3 grams of fresh flowers (about 40 flowers); 2 grams of goji berries. Then some seasonings: a small amount of shredded ginger; edible salt; cooking oil.

(2) Method: First, to make sure the flowers keep a beautiful shape, we need to rinse them with boiling water before formally making the soup. After rinsing, pour the water used to soak the flowers into the stewing pot. Then, when the pork is about 60 percent cooked, add the flowers. Continue stewing until the pork is fully cooked. However, it is not absolutely necessary to rinse the flowers. If you find it troublesome, or if you are making it for yourself and do not care about the shape of the flowers, then simply stew the flowers and pork together.

(3) Taste: The taste of this method is very special, with a faint delicate fragrance of flowers. Add the light sweetness of the lean meat, and it is wonderful. Mixed together, the aroma carries a fresh note.

2. Eating it directly

This method is much simpler: just peel off the skin and eat it. Its taste is very sweet and very cooling, a bit like the taste of sugarcane. After tasting it again, it still feels very cooling. However, this way of eating it is not common; it is still more often made into soup.

3. Effects

Using this plant as an ingredient is not only because it tastes good, but also, more importantly, because of its effects. First, it can reduce internal heat and clear heat. Next is its effect on beauty care. It also has the effect of making the skin more moisturized. This is because it can increase the skin's moisture and enhance its luster. Finally, it also has the special effect of preventing ultraviolet radiation. It really has quite a few benefits.
