Tiny rosette of a Pseudognaphalium affine This plant has been used in traditional cuisines. However, I don’t really like it because it has too much woolly hair, which makes me feel like dental cotton pellets in my mouth.

I found many greens spawned on a faded floodplain yesterday. Is that a yellow marsh-cress? Though I memorized that the plant forms a rosette in winter around my locality, I suppose that’s also a result of global warming. By the way, that is one of the little-known tasty species. Let's take it home.

These are not the destroying angels but highly likely white varieties of the big sheath mushroom. That is closely related to the straw mushroom, which is especially loved in Thailand. Yes, They are edible, IF JUST TRULY AND ACCURATELY BIG SHEATH MUSHROOMS. 🤔

Young vine and a super spiny fruit of star-cucumber, unfortunately, they are invasive species in my neighbor Its spines become soft and can be removed easily with cooking, but the fruit is NOT edible. I got some flavors, cucumber, zucchini, and a toxic bitterness, probably including cucurbitacin.

Tofu soup with gingers This is my fav when I catch a sore throat. 1/2 block of silken tofu, diced 1/2 to 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced 2 to 3 myoga ginger, julienned 1 tbsp oil 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp vinegar 3 cup water And some toppings I made a fried goji berry this time.
Recipe:
1. Parboil the diced tofu for 2 minutes in a pot of boiled water.
2. Cook minced ginger for 1 minute over low heat. Add the water and heat until boiling over med heat. Add parboiled tofu and boil it until the water bubbles. Add vinegar to the soup and stir it to spread evenly. 
3. Cook until the soup becomes like a ramen broth, about 3 minutes.
4. After stopping heating, Add julienned myoga ginger and serve the soup in a bowl with toppings.The soup got more yellow than usual because of the red juice from goji berries.
