Pick tea leaves before the Grain Rain

Fresh vegetables again are the most preferable food for the Chinese people around Guyu, the last solar term of the spring. And the Chinese toon, at its most tender and fresh, is a widely loved dish for residents in many areas. 

There are many ways to cook the leaves of the Chinese toon, such as pickling it with salt, or frying with eggs. The Chinese toon tastes a little bit bitter, but very fresh, and it is said to be helpful in enhancing human health, and is beneficial to the stomach and the skin.
