Why is the green dough not green when using fresh Qingming grass? It turns out that I haven’t mastered this trick
Every spring, we pick a large pot of Qingming grass and put the uneaten ones in the refrigerator. If we want to eat Qingming grass, we can make it and eat it at any time. The fragrant Qingming grass is mixed with glutinous rice flour or flour. After taking a bite, we feel like we are embracing nature. Every year when it is the time to eat Qingming grass, we start to think about picking Qingming grass, and the taste buds on the tip of the tongue can't wait to taste it. At the beginning of March, I have been thinking about picking Qingming grass. It rained for several days. When the weather cleared up, our family took the bags and went to the fields to look for our favorite weeds. There were a lot of Qingming grass on the field ridges in previous years, but this year there was no sign of Qingming grass. I walked with my family towards the river and searched several places. Finally I saw Qingming grass and started to pick it. By the way, I picked the tender tips of wormwood. There was also a grass tip that I didn’t know, which tasted similar to wormwood

Mugwort fruit
Qingming fruit is also called wormwood fruit. It is eaten before the Qingming Festival in our hometown. It can be said to be a special snack. I haven’t eaten this outside in a few years. Recently, I have seen everyone posting it in the circle of friends. I am so greedy. But no one here knows how to make it, so I have to pick the wormwood and make it myself. I saw other people’s methods and found that the skin was not green enough, or it looked like it was just chopped grass. It’s not as beautiful as the green ones in my hometown. I could tell at a glance that the texture of the skin wasn’t strong enough, so I called back to ask for advice. The result was pretty good, but there was a bit of bitterness due to too much grass, and I couldn’t make the buns. It was hilarious, haha! !

Fragrant mugwort cake
I have always wanted to make mugwort cakes this year, but I have never met a vendor selling mugwort. You can’t buy it in the Dongdong wet market, only the ghost vendors sell it. But I was lucky a few days ago. I went downstairs to go to work at the company, but unexpectedly met a vendor selling mugwort. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I couldn’t miss the opportunity, so I bought two handfuls for 1.5 yuan each, but it was difficult to bring these things to the company. I was thinking about where to put them, so I went to a familiar lady who sells tofu in the nearby market and temporarily stored them. I would take them home when I came back from get off work in the afternoon. The mugwort cakes made this time are rich and varied, including those filled with wild rice, bacon and radish, peanuts, sesame and coconut, some fried, and some steamed.

Mugwort black sesame glutinous rice balls
Pine wool mugwort is also called mugwort here, and has other names: mugwort, white mugwort, velvet mugwort, etc., but mugwort refers specifically to mugwort picked in the first month. We have a saying here: In the first month, wormwood grows in February, and in March, it becomes firewood. Of course, this is mainly related to the local climate. If you go further north, it is estimated that this kind of grass will only have small buds in March, so this is just what we say here. This kind of mugwort has the effects of benefiting gallbladder, protecting liver and clearing away dampness and heat. It also has the effects of lowering blood lipids, antipyretic, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor and so on. It is a rare ingredient that has the same origin as medicine and food.

Reunion Fruit Green Fruit & Snow Dumpling
The reunion fruit is a traditional delicacy that must be eaten during the Chinese New Year in Zhuji, my hometown. The reunion fruit is divided into ginkgo and green fruits, and is made by mixing glutinous rice flour and sticky rice flour in a certain proportion. Gingko is usually stuffed with salty stuffing, usually stir-fried with pork, tofu, winter bamboo shoots and pickles; green guo is stuffed with sweet stuffing, usually with bean paste and sesame fillings. Green berries are sometimes made into snow dumplings, which are rounded and wrapped with a layer of glutinous rice. I have posted a blog about ginkgo fruits a few years ago, and now I will share with you how to make green fruits. The green color of the green fruit comes from mugwort. My mugwort was picked before the Qingming Festival. If it is properly preserved, it can be used at this time. In the past, the traditional preservation method was to boil it in lime water and then seal it. Now with the refrigerator, you can blanch it, squeeze out the water, and freeze it directly, which is very convenient. The ratio of glutinous rice flour and sticky rice flour is not certain. This ratio is what I like. In the actual production process, each family will add it according to their own preferences, and the taste will be slightly different. Green fruits are usually tender green before steaming, but turn dark green after steaming. I took photos before and after steaming, and the contrast is obvious.

Qingming fruit
Qingming fruit, also called Qingtuan, is eaten in many places in my country on the Qingming Festival. One is for sacrificial purposes, and the other is for snacks and food for children. Customs vary from place to place. Although spring is in full bloom, mugwort in Beijing is still difficult to buy. But in order to eat the Qingming fruit before the Qingming Festival, I finally found mugwort from thousands of miles away. It was really not easy. In the north, there is a custom of eating cold food on Qingming Festival, while in the south, there is a custom of eating Qingming fruit. As a northerner, making cold food is easy, but making Qingming fruit does require a little patience. Just removing the bitterness from mugwort and making it soft takes a lot of effort. Of course, it would be easier if I used a mixer, but I just wanted to experience the traditional method. I got better at it and the whole process was done by hand. There are two types of Qingming fruit: salty and sweet. The sweet filling is usually red bean paste filling, while the salty filling is the most common stuffing of pickled vegetables, winter bamboo shoots and dried tofu. The bean paste one is relatively simple, but the salty one requires a variety of fillings. It took me two trips to the vegetable market to get it right. Only by working hard can you do your best, I have always believed that. The production process was photographed very carefully, leaving a reference for friends who want to do it. In fact, I was going crazy while doing it. The tedious steps and the filming of each step really made me never want to do it again. But when I tasted the finished product, I gave up the idea and regretted making less. If I had the ingredients, I would still make it because it is so delicious. Qingming fruit with salty filling and sweet skin. There is no bitter wormwood flavor. The skin of Qingming fruit is smooth and shiny, which is very attractive. Warm reminder, you can buy more mugwort at a time, freeze it in the refrigerator after processing, so you can make Qingming Guo at any time.

Bean paste green dumpling
Tomb-Sweeping Day is here again. Qingtuan dumplings are a snack during the Tomb-Sweeping Day in the south, but they are rarely made in the north. I hang out at Shangshikang every day and want to try the delicacies from the east, west, north and south. The downy mugwort harvested by one's own hands is also called mugwort here, and we will use it to make green dumplings today. Originally, it was wrapped and then steamed, but I was worried that it would not form well, so I steamed the glutinous rice dough first, and then directly wrapped the fried bean paste filling. You can eat it while it's hot. The taste and texture are basically the same. I think it's more convenient this way
