Baoye vegetables: cauliflower, green cauliflower [Aware of crops]Cauliflower and green cauliflower of the same Crusogena family are also a member of the Baoye vegetables group. The difference is that the food part is the flower part, not the leaf part.
{9Farmers use medicine in the field to protect the leaves after planting cauliflower seedlings to the stage of flower bud formation. After the cauliflower grows edible parts, some farmers will cover the small flower balls with no cloth to reduce the contamination or remains on the flowers when spraying the agricultural medicine. However, although farmers have done more protection, agricultural medicines may accumulate due to flying or flowing in through the gaps, so the cleaning work cannot be ignored. The flowers of cauliflower are dense and numerous, which increases the difficulty of cleaning, which is also a problem that is very difficult for consumers.
【This way of washing is clean】 Washing: In the cleaning step, first use contact medicine as the target, so first wash the flower part above with clean water. The water flow should not be too large, otherwise the flowers will fall. Holding the peduncle in hand, the flower is diagonally upward at an angle of 30 degrees, rotates and washes several times under the head of the water dragon.
Brushing: After finishing the rinse, divide it into the size required for the cooking, use a small brush to rinse under the head of the water dragon with a smaller water flow, wash one side and brush the other from the flower to the end of the stem, thus removing the retention of the contact-type medicine.
Heating: The systemic drug for cauliflower promotes its dissipation through heating. The method is to cut the washed cauliflower into appropriate sizes and put it in the pot, infused with water until the cauliflower is over, then heat it over low heat for several minutes (no need to go to the water), and remove and dry.
Although the flower part of the systemic drug
Although the whole flower part is consumed, the whole flower accounts for a large proportion of the above-ground part of the plant during harvest. Even if the systemic drug is moved and dispersed, the proportion of the part we eat is very high. Therefore, the control of the retention amount of the systemic drug must be given to farmers to ensure that they follow the safe collection period. This is the most important key to reducing agricultural medicine retention.
Contacting medicine
Although the contact medicine is mainly sprayed on the leaf surface of the crop, it is also easy to fly and spread to the cauliflower part. The growth direction of cauliflower and green cauliflower is upward, and the cauliflower is not small. When spraying the medicine above, it is easy to fall on the flower part, and the chance of the drug being retained is very high; while the pedicel is mainly sprayed on the leaf sheet and attached to the leaf sheet or flowing in from the gap.
