There are many kinds of herbaceous plants common on the Internet, such as purslane, camellia, dandelion, marantou, etc., which are all familiar wild vegetables to farmers, but in addition to these, there is also a common plant known as "roadside green", which is Lan Buzheng. This plant is not widely known among farmers, so it is ignored as a weed. However, farmers should understand that blue cloth is very useful, and it has three major functions.
First of all, blue cloth is a very high-quality wild vegetable. Like purslane, camellia, dandelion, marantou and other plants, the young stems of the blue bush can be eaten as wild vegetables. In spring and summer, people often go to the wasteland to pick the young stems of the blue cloth to stir-fry or stew soup, its taste is tender and delicious. In addition, after the author's attempt, the young leaves of the blue cloth are chopped and scrambled eggs, and the taste is even more mouthwatering. Therefore, when farmers see Lan Buzheng in the wild, don't treat it as a weed anymore, it is a delicious and delicious wild vegetable.
Secondly, the blue cloth can be used to make water or tea. Like plants such as dandelion, plantain, prunella, and white grass root, blue cloth is also effective in clearing heat and detoxifying. In the old days, farmers would boil a pot of water before going out, then put in some blue cloth and wait until the water was cool before drinking. This not only quenches thirst, but also clears away heat and fire. In the author's childhood memories, when I often drink blue cloth and soak in water, I feel very refreshed. Therefore, the blue cloth can not only be eaten, but also used as a drink to soak in water or make tea.
Finally, blue cloth has high medicinal value and is one of the commonly used Chinese herbal medicines. It has the effects of clearing heat and detoxifying, replenishing deficiency and benefiting the kidneys, and invigorating blood and detoxifying. According to the record of "Guizhou Folk Prescription Collection", Lan Buzheng can ** dizziness, insomnia, weakness of limbs, taste and other symptoms, and is beneficial to physical weakness. In addition, it is also mentioned in the "Guizhou Plant Medicine Survey" that blue cloth can be used to invigorate blood and bones. Therefore, if there are people with insufficient qi and blood in the family of farmer friends, you can try to soak in water with blue cloth to drink, which has a good therapeutic effect on the body. At the same time, blue cloth is also suitable for the dizziness of the elderly, and it can be used to stew pork or boil green-shell duck eggs, so it is also called "dizziness medicine". The medicinal value of Lan Buzheng should be paid attention to and used by more people.
In summary, blue cloth is a wild vegetable that is overlooked by farmers, but in fact it has a lot of value and function. It is a high-quality wild vegetable that can be used as an ingredient in stir-fried or stewed soupsIt can be used to make water or tea to drink, and has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying;At the same time, it is also a commonly used Chinese herbal medicine, which has the functions of clearing heat and detoxifying, replenishing deficiency and benefiting the kidneys, and invigorating blood and detoxifying. Therefore, when farmers encounter Lan Buzheng in the wild, they should no longer treat it as a weed, but should pick it home and use it for food or herbal preparation. The discovery and utilization of Lan Buzheng is undoubtedly a valuable resource for farmers.
Before I wrap up, I'd like to share my personal insights. Wild herbs are abundant in rural areas, however, due to the lack of knowledge transmission, many useful plants are neglected or treated as weeds. This makes me think about how to let more farmers understand and use the value of these plants, so that these resources can be better developed and utilizedPerhaps, through education and science popularization activities, farmers can be introduced to the characteristics and functions of these plants, so that they can understand the importance of these plants. At the same time, it is also necessary to increase the training and support of farmers, and encourage them to explore and use local wild vegetable resources. I believe that only by making farmers more aware of and valuing these resources can we achieve rational use and sustainable development. Let's work together to make the wild vegetable resources in the countryside play a greater value!
