The main ingredient shared with friends today is a "turning waste into treasure".
For a long time, we ate lettuce (also known as lettuce) and always threw away the leaves, which were actually more nutritious than the stems. The content of vitamins in lettuce leaves is generally higher than that of stems, the content of carotene in leaves is tens of times higher than in stems, the content of vitamin B1 is twice that of stems, vitamin B2 is 5 times, and vitamin C is 3 times. The niacin content in the leaves is not only higher than in the stems, but also has a better antioxidant effect. In addition, the leaves also contain a lot of calcium, which is a pity if you abandon them and do not eat them.
If northerners eat lettuce leaves, the more common way to eat them is to eat them with dipping sauce. Lettuce leaves are slightly bitter, and adults will consciously retain and eat them after they know the nutritional value.
Flowers have a tip here to reduce the slightly bitter taste without loss of nutrients and maintain a crisp and refreshing taste. This is the cold lettuce leaves with vermicelli and cooked sesame seeds (or crushed peanuts).
