"What about peanuts? Can peanut leaves be eaten?"
"They can be eaten, but hardly anyone does. They're more often used in herbal medicine because there are just so many edible things, there's no need to eat everything you see."
Lin Chen didn't even think before dismissing the suggestion, but Raphael wasn't ready to give up. He casually picked a few leaves, put them in a plastic bag, and labeled them.
Since it can be eaten, he was determined to try it.
Just because it's rarely used in Chinese cuisine doesn't mean it can't shine in Western cuisine. Since he's here, he intends to taste everything that can be eaten.
Who knows, inspiration might strike?
"Oh, by the way, if you're interested in peanuts, you might want to try peanut sprouts. They're delicious."
"Peanut sprouts?"
