Mingshui soybean

Mingshui soybean belongs to panicum miliaceum, a leguminous soybean, and originated in China. It is a leguminous plant whose seeds are rich in protein, and it is the general name of leguminous grains; China was called Ji in ancient times, and the beans in seal script are like seeds in pods. The horn of the bean is called the pod, the leaf of the bean is called the bean hop, and the stem of the bean is called the bean capsule. When it comes to soybeans, it generally refers to their seeds. According to the seed coat color and grain shape, soybeans can be divided into five categories: yellow soybeans, green soybeans, black soybeans, other soybeans (soybeans with brown, brown, red and other single colors) and feed beans (generally, the seeds are small, oblong, with concave dots on two cotyledons, and the seed coat is slightly shiny or dull). Black is called black bean, which can be used as medicine, to satisfy hunger, and to make lobster sauce; Yellow can be made into tofu, oil or bean paste; Other colors can be used for frying cooked food. China has been cultivated since ancient times, and it has been cultivated for 5000 years. At present, it is widely planted in the whole country, and it is produced in Northeast China, North China, Shaanxi, Sichuan and the lower reaches of the Yangtze River. It is cultivated in the Yangtze River Basin and Southwest China, and the quality of soybeans in Northeast China is the best. Soybean cultivated all over the world is directly or indirectly spread from China. Because of its high nutritional value, it is called "the king of beans", "the meat in the field" and "green milk", and it is the most respected food among hundreds of natural foods. All kinds of soybeans are planted around the summer solstice, and the height of the seedlings after growing is 3-4 feet; The leaves are peach-shaped; White flowers bloom in autumn; The pod is about an inch long. All the soybeans can't help frosting, and they slowly dry up after an autumn frost. If you want to have a good harvest when planting soybeans, you usually use this method: put some soybeans of equal weight in several pockets, bury them in a dark and humid place on the day of the winter solstice, take them out fifteen days later, weigh each pocket, and choose beans from heavier pockets as seeds. Soybean can be stored for a long time, and can be stored for one year, so it can be stored in case of emergency. Soybean fermented products, including douchi, soybean juice, yellow sauce and various sufu, are all made by inoculating soybeans or soybean products with mold for fermentation. After microbial action, soybean and its products eliminate the factors that inhibit nutrition and produce a variety of fragrant substances, which are more easily digested and absorbed by human body, and more importantly, increase the content of vitamin B12.
