2. Neutral and cold cooking
Don't touch the oil in the pot, wash it with baking soda, put the dried dandelion in the pot and stir-fry it with low fire until the dandelion leaves are slightly yellow.
My answer is: dandelion can be dried directly to make tea.
On this issue, I instantly recalled the summer vacation when I was a student.
When I was a child, my parents were busy with work. During the summer vacation, my father would send me to the village to be taken care of by my grandparents.
Summer in the country is particularly beautiful. When I was a child, trees, melons, cicadas and birds attracted me very much. Looking back now, I still feel that I am in a fairy tale world.
In our local countryside, dandelions are basically called old ladies, and grandparents have a special liking for dandelions soaked in water. So now every time I drink dandelion tea, I can't help thinking of my childhood.
In fact, dandelion is a kind of Chinese medicine with great medicinal value. Because of its good health preserving function, it is often used to make tea.
1, the benefits of dandelion tea
One of the most well-known benefits is clearing away heat and toxic materials and relieving summer heat, so in summer, dandelion tea is deeply loved by people. Drinking it when you have a cold and sore throat can also effectively relieve the pain.

2, drinking precautions
Although dandelion tea has many benefits, there are also some things that need attention. Before you are ready to drink, you must understand it first, so as not to be counterproductive:
People with cold body should not drink alcohol. Because dandelion is cold, people with cold constitution often drink it, which will lead to poor constitution.
(2) dandelion tea should drink it warm. If it gets cold, it is recommended not to drink it, which may easily lead to diarrhea.
③ People with spleen and stomach deficiency and cold should knock on the blackboard, and be cautious when drinking dandelion tea alone. If such people want to achieve the best health care effect of dandelion, they should soak in water and add some milder materials, such as red dates, dried roses or ginger.
People with low blood pressure suggest drinking less. The reason is obvious and needs no elaboration.
It is best for pregnant women and young children not to drink casually. After all, they have special constitutions.

3. dandelion tea's practice.
After talking about the many benefits and precautions of dandelion tea, let's share the practice of dandelion tea now! It is worth noting that dandelion grows in the wild and has a lot of dust on its body. All picked dandelions must be cleaned. After all, it must be put in your mouth and cleaned properly.
(1) direct drying, which is the simplest and most direct way. This direct drying method is very simple, so you can do it yourself at home. Although the taste is slightly bitter, it is not as fragrant as fried, but it retains more nutritional value of dandelion, and its health care effect is better than fried.
(1) Wash a whole dandelion plant without deliberately separating the stem and leaf from the root.
(2) Then put it in a dustpan covered with gauze and take it to a cool and ventilated place. Don't expose yourself to the sun, just dry it slowly in the shade.
(3) When the dandelion is dry, put it away. When you want to drink, just take it out and soak it in water. You can also put it in a pot and boil it before drinking.
(2) frying. If you make tea by frying, use leaves. Leaves should be fat and wide, but not too tender or too old, because too tender leaves have bad health care effect and too old leaves have bad taste. Dandelion leaves collected this season are the best.
① Cleaning: Wash the leaves carefully, rinse them first, then soak them in clear water for about 1 hour, and finally take out the dandelion leaves and control the water for later use.
(2) Water fixation: add water to the steamer to boil, and steam dandelion for about 3 minutes, provided that fire is used.
③ Drying: When the time is up, dandelion leaves must be taken out of the pot immediately. Don't ask why, we know by experience. It needs to be spread out quickly, dried and turned over every once in a while. When the leaves are dried, they are almost dry, or about 50% correctly.
4 Stir-fried tea: The most important thing is to grasp the heat. It would be a pity to fire them. Pour the leaves into the wok and stir-fry slowly. Note that it is best to stir fry with both hands, because you can better perceive the temperature. If it is very hot, it means the temperature is too high. In order to make the leaves evenly heated, roll the leaves by hand and stir at the same time. The water in the leaves is completely dry and the leaves are slightly curled. When you smell the fragrance, you can turn off the fire and cook.
4. Traditional collocation of dandelion tea.
In fact, when we soak dandelion, we should mix it with other ingredients to get twice the result with half the effort.
For example:
(1) Dandelion+Lycium barbarum
Dandelion has a good function of protecting liver and reducing fire. Drinking it in water is good for liver, qi and blood and eyes. I was drinking some time ago. Because of my work, I need to deal with computers every day. I feel that I need to take good care of my eyes, and the effect is really good.
(2) Dandelion+green tea
This small formula has an unexpected effect on people with breath. After all, bad breath caused by inflammation of the mouth or teeth is very common, and dandelion has a good relieving effect on it. In addition, green tea has the function of refreshing breath. If the two drink tea together and insist on drinking regularly, the oral odor can be improved.
(3) Dandelion+Chrysanthemum+Honeysuckle
Chrysanthemum morifolium has the function of dispersing wind and heat, so it can relieve headache, dizziness and wind-heat cold. The effect of honeysuckle is to dissipate heat and clear blood poison, so it is very suitable for drinking when the body heat erupts. Therefore, dandelion, chrysanthemum and honeysuckle are suitable for soaking together, which can clear away heat and dispel wind.

When I was a child, dandelions were everywhere under peach trees and in the yard. Dandelion is also commonly known as "cucumber seedling" in our north. Let me share the edible and medicinal methods of dandelion.
As the temperature turns cloudy in early spring, dandelion grows taller and taller under the nourishment of sunshine and rain and dew. In March-May, it becomes more and more brittle and greener, and looks like oil wheat vegetables. It really looks like a bite! At this time, dandelion can be pickled and eaten. It only needs a little salt and seasoning powder. It tastes bitter, but it won't be bitter. There is a different taste ~ provided that the dandelion in the vegetable garden is particularly bitter in Shan Ye, it is estimated that it is difficult to swallow; Or you can blanch it and mix it. It will taste much better.
1. Dandelion can be used for clearing away heat and toxic materials, diminishing inflammation, removing fire, wind-heat cold, or throat inflammation. If you have burns or scratches, you can apply white juice to the wound, which has an auxiliary anti-inflammatory effect and can help the wound scab.
2. The medicinal effect of dandelion root will be much better than that of simple leaves, and of course the taste will be bitter. You can dry the roots and leaves and soak them in water or put them in boiling water for 1-2 minutes, so the drug effect will be better ~
3. If you want a better medicinal effect, it is suggested to go to Shan Ye to dig and try to keep long roots. Take it home, remove the soil and rotten yellow leaves, put it in the sun for a few days, then put it in a cool and ventilated place, dry it and seal it. When drinking, you can take it out to make tea or brew it. You can choose leaves to brew, and you can use roots to boil water.
Taraxacum belongs to compositae herb, also known as Taraxacum flavum and Viola yedoensis. Broken with milk, the leaves are rooted, rectangular and irregularly pinnately divided. Head, terminal, yellow. The root is thick and fleshy, like a hammer. In addition to this species, there are two kinds of dandelions, one with obovate leaves, wavy edges and small thorns. The other is Taraxacum microphyllum, whose leaves are as thin as small bitter stalks, linear and yellow flowers. The medicinal effects of the three kinds are basically the same. Medicinal whole plant, harvested in summer and autumn. Born in hillside farmland, fields, roadsides or manual work. Dandelion is sweet, bitter, cold and nontoxic. Has the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials, cooling blood, promoting diuresis, promoting lactation and diminishing inflammation. Commonly used for spotted fever, breast sores, carbuncle sores, skin ulcers, snake bites, etc. Generally, dry products are from 5 yuan to 1 2, and some people use more than 2/2. Dandelion is nontoxic. If you want to make tea, you can use it Pick it back, remove impurities, wash the sediment and take it with boiling water. You'd better chop it up and cook it for a few minutes. Good health, no other inflammation, or eat less. It's best not to treat it as tea, but to soak it in water every day. In recent years, many people like to eat weeds, and dandelions are also eaten as vegetables. Seriously, I really haven't eaten it. Sorry, I didn't get a picture of dandelion. I hate searching for pictures on the internet. I'll give you a prescription for dandelion compatibility. Hot sores are red and swollen: dandelion, erigeron breviscapus (Leigonggen), fresh hibiscus flowers and Jiuliming are all mashed and applied to the affected area, with excellent results.
As soon as spring comes, there will be more kinds of game to eat on the mountains in the country. There are Chinese toon buds on the tree and a wild vegetable in the field. This is the right time to eat, and it is dandelion. Dandelion, the first crop in spring every year, is the most tender. Stir-fried jiaozi is delicious. I believe many people have a better understanding of the therapeutic value of dandelion. Dandelion is also used for making tea and drinking among the people. Some middle-aged and elderly people especially like to drink dandelion tea, saying that it can not only improve the body's resistance, but also protect the liver. So how did dandelion tea do it? Does dandelion make tea directly after drying?
Dandelion can of course be soaked like tea after it is dried. However, this kind of dandelion tea tastes very bad and bitter, which is difficult for ordinary people to swallow, and the efficacy of this kind of tea is also greatly reduced. The way for the older generation to make dandelion tea is relatively simple, but the process is a bit complicated. Here, farmers tell us how some old people in our village made dandelion tea.
Pick dandelions in autumn and remove some yellow leaves. Then clean it, and then put the dandelion in a ventilated place to dry in the shade. When it is 60% to 70% dry, cut them into filaments with a knife. Then we started to fry dandelions. First, use a cauldron and high fire to heat the pan, then pour in the shredded dandelion, and then stir fry slowly with low fire, in which the dandelion should be constantly stirred to avoid burning. After seven or eight minutes (depending on the size and temperature of the pot), the dandelions in the pot are completely fried, so they should be fished out. Put it in a ventilated place, let it cool, and then put it in a bag or a glass basin, so that dandelion tea can be fired.
Dandelion tea can be taken by men, women and children. Rich in vitamins and minerals, it has good effects of protecting liver, diuresis and lowering cholesterol. In addition, dandelion tea has certain curative effect on dyspepsia and constipation. However, dandelions are cold. You can put some medlar or red dates when eating, and the effect will be better.
Of course, you can also make your own tea and save it for later. Let me share with you my own steps of frying tea.
Dandelion leaves, flowers and roots have different functions. Dandelion leaves have the functions of clearing away heat and toxic materials, diminishing inflammation and removing fire. Eating in spring can clear blood and detoxify in summer and autumn. Dandelion flower mainly has freckle removing effect and can be used to boil water and wash your face. Dandelion root mainly has the effect of nourishing liver. You can drink dandelion root tea for alcoholic hepatitis. Although the main functions are different, on the whole, the functions of roots, leaves and flowers are interrelated.
(1) Picking: If dandelion is used to stir-fry tea, it is best to use big leaves and big roots, so to grasp the picking time, the leaves can be picked several times, but don't hurt the roots and let it grow again. You can pick roots in autumn.
(2) Selection: Select some middle and large leaves without insect bite marks. Be careful when choosing roots, because it is easy to paste when frying, and it is best to be uniform.
(3) Cleaning: Strictly clean the roots and wash them several times, because there is mud, which will affect the taste.
(4) Cutting: You can also cut a knife in the middle, and the root can be cut into blocks or sections. It is recommended to cut into sections, which will cause serious loss of ingredients.
(5) Baking: Without professional baking equipment, it can be steamed in a cauldron.
(6) drying: put it in a sunny place to dry.
(7) Stir-fry: stir-fry slowly with a small fire, and be sure to stir-fry with a small fire, and be careful not to stir-fry.
It's better to drink more dandelion tea at ordinary times. Get sick when you get angry. Getting angry is most likely to lead to inflammation of the mouth and throat, and then catch a cold slowly. Dandelion is used to diminish inflammation and remove fire. When drinking tea, you must take a sip and let it fully contact the cells. Don't drink too much every day, and don't drink when you have a cold.
Dandelion tastes bitter and cold, and it can clear away heat and detoxify. Making tea is good, but it is rarely used or not used for people with stomach problems and weak health.
The heat-clearing effect of dandelion can be compared with that of honeysuckle, and it can be used together for better effect. If you are not well enough to drink dandelion tea, you can also add some dried ginger to nourish your stomach!
There are two cooking methods in dandelion tea, steaming and frying.
Let's take steaming for example. Just wash the collected dandelion, put it in a pot and steam it with water. The time is 5 minutes, so don't let excessive steaming affect the efficacy. You can also steam the whole grains together, so that dandelion won't hurt your stomach. Steam dry in the sun. The finished product should be sealed to avoid mildew.
You can also eat it with honeysuckle for better effect. Dried ginger and codonopsis pilosula can be added for patients with cold weakness. It's delicious, and you can add some honey.
