3 Golden-leafed plants
Kintoki-so is a yellow-green vegetable rich in a balanced blend of vitamins and minerals. It is particularly high in beta-carotene, vitamin C, and iron. The reddish-purple pigment in its leaves is anthocyanin, a type of polyphenol, which is expected to have antioxidant effects. Additionally, its slimy component is a mixture of mucilaginous proteins, said to lower blood sugar and cholesterol levels.
The leaves and young stems are edible. When boiled, it develops a unique sliminess, turns a seaweed-like green, and the boiling water becomes reddish-purple. It has a crisp texture and a distinctive flavor with an earthy aroma and a slight bitterness.
