Steamed Mugwort Vegetables

Overview

[Steamed Mugwort Vegetables] A wild vegetable that is eaten every spring and made with simple red oil. This dish was made late. It was just right when I ate it two weeks ago. I ate it last week and haven’t sorted it out until it came out. But at this time, our local mugwort is no longer edible and is a bit old. There is a local saying in our area: In the first month, the wormwood grows in the second month, and in the third month, the wormwood is used as firewood. That's what I'm talking about. It's very seasonal and can get old if you're not careful. In the past, my mother could always get some when she was at home. Now that my mother doesn’t live at home, it’s really hard to get it! I planned to go out this week, but no, I don’t have time. I plan to go out next week, but no, I still don’t have time. I haven’t gone out to dig since the beginning of February. Fortunately, good food is always blessed with good food. I went to my brother’s house that day, and my aunt gave a lot of it. I gave some back to eat. It was really good.
