Which solar terms go to fire?
Today Xiaoman, the second solar term in summer, indicates the beginning of hot summer. The temperature in the north is getting higher these days, with the highest temperature reaching 30 degrees. Many people wear shorts in summer. Nevertheless, it's quite cold in the north in the morning and evening, and we need a coat. In line with the solar terms, Xiaoman eats common bitter vegetables. Bitter food can clear away heat and remove fire, and light bitterness can also stimulate appetite, which has the effect of invigorating stomach and promoting digestion. You can eat three kinds of wild vegetables all summer in this season in the north. I remember that I often eat wild vegetables at home in summer to clear away heat and stimulate appetite. Eating regularly in summer is good for health care.
The first wild vegetable: shepherd's purse
Shepherd's purse Shepherd's purse is the earliest wild vegetable listed in the north, which can be eaten in April. In summer, there are many kinds of vegetables, and their existence is often ignored.
