While the weather forecast was still reporting snow in the north, the rain season crept in. Many people don't realize that because of this solar term, many people don't care. The solar terms of the beginning of spring and Qingming are familiar to everyone. But the rain solar term is like a "little transparent", and many people don't know what this solar term is for.
Rain is the second of the 24 solar terms, which represents precipitation and is very important for farming. As the old saying goes: spring rain is as expensive as oil, and after the rain season, the rain increases, bringing vitality to the crops.
The rain festival also brings a lot of fresh and tender ingredients, especially some freshly sprouted vegetables, which are picked and eaten at this time, which is not only delicious, but also extremely tender in taste.
I often hear: "Eat a fresh rain, a year of illness will not be stained", tomorrow is the rain solar term, so what does this "1 fresh" mean?
In early spring, there are many fresh and tender vegetables, but today's recommendation is shepherd's cabbage, a very rare wild vegetable.
Shepherd's cabbage is the earliest "primrose", and the shepherd's cabbage at this time is very tender and delicious. After the rain season, the hillside is covered with freshly sprouted shepherd's cabbage, and many rural people will take advantage of this time to pick it.
Shepherd's cabbage is extremely nutritious, with a high calcium content of 294 mg, a high potassium and iron content, and a rich hunger vitamin.
