五月初的时候有一天带儿子到朋友Katie家和她儿子玩，一进门她就问我要不要香椿叶，然后递了一把剪刀给我。我马上就跑到她家后院剪了一把的香椿嫩叶，这可是我想了很久的美食哪！

当晚回家我就做了这个香椿酱，冷藏了可以留着慢慢吃。

I send my son to a friend's house for a playdate sometimes in the beginning of May and she asked if I want some Chinese Toon (香椿) -- a species of Toona 

where its young leaves are extensively used as a vegetable in China. The young leaves have a floral, yet onion-like flavor. It is widely used as flavoring agent in vegetarian/vegan dishes in China.

I immediately seize the opportunity and harvest a bunch of Chinese Toon from her backyard. I came home and made this Sauce which can then make into many delicious dishes later.

材料：

1 把/大约200克 香椿嫩叶

1/3 杯 橄榄油

1 小勺 食盐

Ingredienst：

1 bunch of Chinese Toon young leaves (around 200 g)

1/3 cup of olive oil

1 tsp of salt  

1. 把香椿叶的硬梗摘除，只去嫩叶和嫩枝，洗净沥干水。

2. 把小半锅水煮滚，把香椿叶入锅烫45秒左右。沥干水后放到搅拌机里加入食盐和橄榄油搅拌成糊状即可，不必搅拌得太顺滑。

3. 装瓶密封冷藏，尽量在一个月里吃完。

1. Remove hard stems of the young Chinese toon leaves, washed and drained completely.

2. Bring half a pot of water to boil, blanch the leaves for 45 seconds or until wilted. Drained and place the leaves in a mixer/food processor.

3. Add salt and olive oil, blend until smooth. Store in airtight container and keep it in refrigerator. Use within a month.
