The weather is cold in the morning and evening and hot at noon. The human body’s poor adjustment ability makes it easy to catch a cold, so we might as well eat a few small vegetarian dishes, fresh and de-fired. It doesn’t cost a few dollars, but eats happily.

Today I brought a lot of cold dishes, celery and carrots are common, and the other two are kidney beans and ginkgo. A simple mixed vegetable cold dish, scraping the intestines oil does not make you angry, every autumn my family eats a lot, plant fiber increases, the intestines and stomach are also relaxed, even less cough, children who like to eat meat also like this vegetable mixed cold dish.

Large kidney beans, also known as white kidney beans, are a specialty in the north. Mature large kidney beans are the size of a quail egg and are shaped like a "kidney". Beijing Youdao’s famous snack "Kidney Bean Cake" is made by steaming this large kidney bean and filtering it into a kidney bean paste, and then pressing it with sugar and other ingredients. Because of the long production time and low yield, it is now almost extinct. . But kidney beans can still be bought in the market, and ordinary people's homes are also used to make cold dishes, porridge or braised rice. Kidney beans are rich in nutrients and contain high levels of protein, calcium, iron, and B vitamins. Frequent consumption of kidney beans can accelerate skin metabolism and relieve dry skin and hair.

Ginkgo, another ingredient in the dish, is even better known. Ginkgo is the fruit of Ginkgo biloba. It contains a variety of nutrients. In addition to starch, protein, fat, and carbohydrates, it also contains vitamin C, carotene, calcium, phosphorus, iron, potassium, magnesium, and other trace elements, riboflavic acid, and ginkgo biloba. Acid, crude fiber, amino acids, carbohydrates and other ingredients have high edible value.

The flesh and hard shell of the outermost layer of the ginkgo fruit are peeled off, revealing the ginkgo covered with a thin brown skin. Ginkgo needs to be fully cooked to detoxify before being eaten. If the quantity is large, it can be kept for one year after being cooked and cooled in a vacuum machine. Ginkgo has the effect of restraining lung qi and relieving asthma and coughing. It is the right time to eat in spring. However, the dosage should not be large. Take 5-8 tablets each time. Children under 3 years old should not eat it.
