There are so many wild vegetables in spring. Living in these third-tier small cities is a good bud. On the weekends, you can take your children and walk around in the suburbs, and you can get a lot!

It is said that there is an old family as a treasure. This is really good. With parents, all kinds of seasonal wild vegetables and wild fruits can be tasted in time! My parents have lived in the countryside all their lives, but they are really good in the countryside. Every time I go home from get off work, I can see all kinds of delicious food just out of the table, which can make Meimei happy, as if she is back in her childhood!
Many people don't know Buffalo cabbage. Although it does not bloom as golden as rapeseed, it is favored by people in the hometown for its unique floral fragrance and value.

From winter to spring, everything recovers. On the side of the country road, a small plant with green leaves and yellow flowers will naturally grow every spring. Walking along the way, you can also smell a delicate fragrance, this is buffalo flower. The scientific name of buffalo flower is squirrel grass, and the Chinese medicinal material buffalo grass is also called "water centipede". It is a kind of tenacious herbaceous plant, which generally grows in the wilderness, hillside, roadside, river bank, and house.

The glutinous rice cake made from water buffalo flowers, also known as the powder glutinous rice cake, is a kind of food loved by the people, and it is also a good standing product for offering sacrifices to the ancestors. During the Ching Ming Dynasty, every household will make a few bowls of buffalo flower glutinous rice cakes, which can be enjoyed by the ancestors and can be tasted for the present.

Don't underestimate the water buffalo grass, it is actually a good medicine for expelling phlegm, relieving cough, and dispelling rheumatism! It has the effects of dispelling wind and detoxification, clearing heat and dampness, promoting blood circulation and detoxification. When used as a medicinal material, it mainly treats cold, fever, headache, acute bronchitis, whooping cough, itchy skin, snake bite, rheumatoid arthritis and bruises.
My mother knows that I have always liked buffalo grass papa since I was a child, so I picked it back in time in spring. This time I picked more buffalo grass flowers, so my mother changed the pattern to make it for us for breakfast. Meimei is a real treat these days.

During this time Meimei was crying for weight loss, so my mother made this coarse-grained version of buffalo grass wotou, which was made with soft and waxy buffalo grass. It is soft and waxy, and it tastes better than ordinary corn wotou. Low-sugar whole grain delicacies, friends who like it can try it!

Tips:

Use a wall-breaking machine to make mud. The water can be added less and the vegetable juice will be thicker. Many friends asked me what the anti-sticking leaf is underneath. It is the zongzi for the Dragon Boat Festival. It is also sold on the Internet. It's very cheap. Generally, you can buy a hundred sheets for a few dollars. You can buy more. You can also use it when steaming buns. The steamed cakes are not sticky at all, but also have a light fragrance!

Of course, if you don’t have buffalo grass flowers, or in other seasons, you can also use other vegetables to make it more beautiful than spinach, or use water instead of vegetable juice. Various coarse grains and glutinous rice flour are directly made into the original flavor. The whole grain cake is also very delicious. The various ingredients inside can be changed at will, as long as the dough can finally form a dough, it will not fail.
