Introduction: Known as "underground Sydney", but growing in the mud, it is both a vegetable and a snack, with great potential
As soon as winter enters, northerners begin to hoard vegetables, for example, in our village, every household has to hoard some radishes and cabbage, because the preservation period of these two vegetables is relatively long, even if the leaves of the takeaway can not be eaten, after removing the inside is very fresh, this year my family planted a lot of cabbage and radish, eating at home is completely enough.
In the past, there was a lack of materials, there were not many types of vegetables, the main vegetable in the northern winter was cabbage, and now with the development of social economy, even in rural areas, fresh vegetables can be purchased every day, and many people have given up the habit of hoarding vegetables, but my family still likes to hoard vegetables every year.

Today to talk about this vegetable, the northern region is rare, it is a specialty of the south, but my family will buy some every year, directly boiled to eat particularly fragrant, it is called "underground Sydney" water chestnut!
<h1>Introduction to water chestnut science</h1> popularization
There are many names of water chestnut, people also like to call it horseshoe, chestnut, water chestnut, etc., water chestnut is an aquatic plant of the sedge family water chestnut, if viewed from a distance, I feel that the plant is very similar to a leek, but the plant of water chestnut can reach about 40-100 cm, much taller than a leek.
The stems of the water chestnut are gray-green, smooth and hairless, and very recognizable. It prefers a warm, humid climate, not tolerant of severe cold and frost, so it can not be planted in the northern region, the current main planting area of water chestnut is Taiwan, Hainan, Jiangsu, Guangdong and other places.
The harvest period of water chestnut generally begins in October, but December is the season when water chestnut is on the market in large quantities, and it can be harvested until March of the following year, with a particularly long harvest period.
