Dosage of Wisteria Flowers

Wisteria, also known as wisteria, is native to my country. Wisteria is generally planted as an ornamental plant on roadsides, in courtyards, and in parks. Wisteria blooms in early summer. The flowers are purple and bloom in clusters. They are very beautiful. In midsummer, the branches will be full of leaves and pods. Because wisteria flowers have great ornamental effects, they have gradually been introduced to China's neighboring countries, including Japan, South Korea, etc.

Chinese people are especially fond of wisteria. No other plant is as widely distributed across the country as wisteria, from Guangzhou in the south to Inner Mongolia in the north. Wisteria flowers are a delicious food ingredient. People usually blanch wisteria flowers and make a cold dish. Wisteria flowers also have certain medicinal value.

Beijing's "Purple Wisteria Cake" and some other local "Purple Wisteria Cake", "Purple Wisteria Porridge", "Fried Pueraria Fish", "Cold Pueraria Flowers", "Stir-fried Pueraria Flowers", etc. are all made with Wisteria flowers.

Wisteria flowers can be used to extract aromatic oils, which have the effects of detoxification, anti-vomiting and diarrhea. Wisteria seeds are slightly poisonous and contain cyanide. They can cure muscle and bone pain and prevent wine from spoiling. Wisteria bark has the effects of killing insects, relieving pain, dispelling wind and unblocking meridians, and can treat tendon and bone pain, rheumatism, pinworm disease, etc.

Wisteria belongs to the leguminous family. When it blooms, the inflorescence can be as long as 20 to 30 centimeters. Each inflorescence has fifty to one hundred flowers and has a fragrant smell. If wisteria is well cultivated and managed, it can bloom again in late summer and early autumn. Wisteria flowers are both medicinal and edible. When used as medicine, there is no need to worry about the dosage of wisteria flowers.
