Garlic loofah

Overview

Luffa is the most common food in summer. "Compendium of Materia Medica": Luffa, unknown before the Tang and Song Dynasties, is now found in both the north and the south and is considered a common vegetable. Peel it when tender, cook or expose it, and serve it as a vegetable for tea. When old, it becomes as big as a pestle, and its tendons are tangled like knots. It withers when exposed to frost and can wash away pots and vessels, so the villagers call it the pot-washing Luogua. There are partitions inside, and the seeds are in the partitions. They look like wilted seeds of a Chinese oak tree, black and flat. Its flower buds and tender leaf tendrils are both edible. When eating loofah, you should peel it. It can be eaten cold, stir-fried, grilled, made into soup or juiced for dietary therapy. Wash and slice the loofah, blanch it in boiling water, and mix it with sesame oil, soy sauce, vinegar, etc. to make cold loofah. When cooking luffa, it should be cut and cooked as it is rich in juice to avoid loss of nutrients. In addition, less oil should be used and cooking can be done by thickening the gravy to retain the tender and refreshing characteristics.
