When it comes to horsehead orchid, you may be a little unfamiliar. But when you see it blooming with small purple flowers, swaying in the spring breeze, you will definitely be attracted by its beauty.

Either way, the treated horsehead orchid has a tender taste and is a delicacy on the spring table.

When picking and eating bracken, it's important to make sure it's coming from a reliable source so you can enjoy it with peace of mind.

When it comes to toon buds, it's a delicacy that people love and hate. The unique and intense flavor of toon buds is a spring delicacy for those who like it, and the unique taste is unacceptable for those who don't. Either way, scrambled eggs with toon sprouts or tofu are a very flavorful dish.
