Poplar leaves mixed with shredded potatoes
Overview
Nowadays, eating poplar leaves is basically a rarity. An old man gave some freshly picked young poplar leaves and told him how to make them. He said they were very delicious. In fact, what is there to say about old people who have suffered hardships, hunger and cold? Besides, with today's abundant condiments, what kind of taste is not happy? I heard from the old man that in the past, poor people first ate elm money and elm leaves at the beginning of spring, and then ate poplar leaves. They soaked the tender green poplar leaves in water to remove the bitterness, mixed them with cornmeal to make steamed buns, or mixed them with vinegar and minced garlic to survive the famine.
