不為人知的超級食品 。Unsung Superfoods

地上一張報紙, 五彩繽紛的封面照吸引了我的注意, 撿起一看, 標題是, 不為人知的超級食品(Unsung Superfoods), 滿山遍野, 惡名昭彰(to me, at least)的蒲公英(Dandelion)竟名列其中, 看來,以後 可以有採不完的野菜。


蒲公英葉:
春天頭一個來報到的綠色蔬菜。 蒲公英葉, 低卡路里, 高纖維。 這些暗綠色的菜葉有高於哈密瓜的維他命A, 比菠菜更豐富的鈣質。 而且, 還含有鐵, 多種維他命(包括維他命C), 鉀, 葉酸。

味苦, 不宜放入沙拉。 最好與一些味甜的食物同煮,
譬如雞鴨, 義大利麵加番茄。加入堅果和乾果亦可。或與大蒜、胡椒粉煎炒。

除了藍梅(Blueberry), 菠菜(Spinach), 和花椰菜(Broccoli)等眾所熟悉的蔬果, 其它不為人知的超級食品還包括,卡姆小麥(Kamut)葡萄柚(Grapefruit), 丹貝(Tempeh),海帶(Seaweed),酪梨(Avocados), 乾梅子(Dried Plums、Prunes), 甜菜根(Beets), 南瓜(Pumpkin), 奇異子(Chia Seeds)

面對地球環境的持續惡化, 學習野外求生, 末日自救的團體, 愈來愈多。 蒲公英葉, 說不定, 哪天能救了你的命。

發現一個自救網站, 頗有看頭。

三年的食物補給?? 怪怪。 How? 得研究研究。

One Newspaper lies on the ground. The colorful picture on the cover attracts my eyeballs. Pick up and read, the title named "
Unsung Superfoods", dandelion is among them, to my surprise. Gush, this little weed shoot wildly everywhere in the early spring, I got goose bump whenever their hairy seeds spread, fly like group of invasive troop on my lawn.  I fight them with torch once, and it works. But probably I should change my strategy.

JUST EAT THEM.

Dandelion greens:
One of the first vegetables to come to the farmers market - and your yard - in the spring, dandelion greens are low in calories and high in fiber. But a serving (1 cup) of these dark, leafy greens also has more vitamin A than a cup of cantaloupe and more calcium than spinach. They are also high in iron, other vitamins(including vitamin C), potassium and folate.
When try them, they are somewhat bitter, so you might not want to toss them in salads. Instead, try cooking them with something sweet -- say a chicken or pasta dish with tomatoes -- or adding nuts and dried fruit. Or saute with garlic and pepper.

Step aside, blueberries, spinach and broccoli. It's time to give unsung superfoods a chance. Try incorporating these 10 healthful foods into your diet.
1. Kamut  2. Dandelion greens  3. Grapefruit  4. Tempeh  5. Seaweed  6. Avocados  7. Dried Plums (prunes)  8. Beets  9. Pumpkin  10. Chia seeds

Don't belittle this unsung weed, it may save your life when the end of the earth's days is around the corner.

Check out this survival blog, there are lots lots information.

Staircase Escalante Wilderness.... Largest Wilderness areas in Lower 48, nearly 2 million acres. No Atv, Otv, Rtv, Dtv, but miles and miles noman land. 60 million years ago, this was a subtropical area, covered with ocean, swamp and roamed with dinosaurs and other sea animals....

野地到處都能找到蒲公英的蹤跡

傳說蒲公英也是防癌的偏方

若是屬實不起眼的野草以後可能要花錢買了

對不起,過去一個半月的野外生活,高潮迭起。先是在南猶 Staircase-Escalande Wilderness 遊蕩,不意上坡路 trailer右輪胎掉進unpaved road washoff ,只好原地作了五日的cliffdweller,觀察環境想想如何解困。。費了大勁,幾番波折,才綁了Steel Cable 用Jeep從側面使足馬力強力拖出,可拖回狹窄路面,恐又掉入原洞,不敢原路上拖,但路面狹窄Jeep又無法平行駛向trailer另一端,荒山野地,進退維谷。。。。

總之故事一堆,還遇到Dinosaur digging team 和有二十年經驗paleontologist,Dr. Alan Titus,和剛發現出地新品種恐龍Hadrosaur II。。之後 after 80 miles dirt road driving, finally my poor wood interior built trailer reached its toll. Everything fell apart....

一路叮叮噹噹回到塩湖,迎面而來的就是前院後院大把大把的蒲公英。。

相片無法上傳,改天再附上。

蒲公英的性能
2009/07/17 02:19
《上海常用中草藥》,書上介紹了蒲公英的性能:苦甘寒、清熱解毒、利尿、緩瀉。

主治用法有五種,其中一項是“感冒發熱、扁桃体炎及急性咽喉炎、急性支氣管炎……”
其他主治功效有:“熱癤、疔瘡腫毒、流火、乳癰(乳腺炎)、淋巴腺炎等症”。

治扁桃腺炎及急性咽喉炎用法﹕連根挖了洗干淨用涼水燒開,微涼喝下。
治熱癤、疔瘡腫毒做法﹕把蒲公英搗碎,外敷患處,包紮好。

信不信隨你... :)

因為我記得蒲公英好像有毒耶?

有些食物是我很喜歡吃的外國口味. (是本地沒有並且作法不同)

這些superfoods是多半在supermarket才能買到的can food, right??

From the picture seen above, based on the shape and look of 蒲公英葉, I do not think 蒲公英葉 is the superfood only available to the supermarket. It is everywhere in the field in North America continent. Actually, I do try it several times. It does taste bitter and woody, but remember pick the tender and younger one, and mix with something sweet.

真有趣

在歐洲獵女巫的時期,蒲公英被視為女巫煉藥的材料之一,家裡院子有蒲公英的話,那個家的女性常常是被誣告、甚至獵殺的對象呢。真是十年風水輪流轉。

蒲公英能煉藥?得趕快去學起來。

我一看到蒲公英毛茸茸的種子, 就開始頭皮發麻。 有一陣子, 用火攻, 效果不錯。
