- The eight culturally significant wild edible plant species identified in Taishan County via the Cultural Food Significance Index (CFSI) analysis are Portulaca oleracea L., Houttuynia cordata Thunb., Plantago asiatica L., Centella asiatica (L.) Urb., Amaranthus spinosus L., Perilla frutescens (L.) Britton, Hypericum japonicum Thunb. ex Murray, and Eleutherococcus trifoliatus (L.) S. Y. Hu.
- Portulaca oleracea has the highest Cultural Food Significance Index (CFSI) value among wild edible plants in Taishan County due to its dual medicinal-culinary applications, high nutritional value, and utilization in pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, cosmetics, haircare products, and animal feed.
- Portulaca oleracea and Amaranthus spinosus demonstrate high cultural and dietary importance in Taishan County, as both species achieve Cultural Food Significance Index (CFSI) values above 500.
- Stir-frying of wild vegetables in Taishan County predominantly utilizes shoots and whole aerial parts, with Alternanthera bettzickiana and Portulaca oleracea being representative examples.
- The edible parts of wild plants in Taishan County include shoots (15 species, such as Eleutherococcus trifoliatus and Sauropus androgynus), stems (4 species, such as Dendrocalamus latiflorus and Amorphophallus paeoniifolius), whole aerial parts (5 species, such as Rorippa indica and Portulaca oleracea), whole plant (2 species, such as Centella asiatica), fruits (2 species, such as Avicennia marina), flowers (3 species, such as Telosma cordata), and roots (2 species, such as Dioscorea polystachya).
- Portulaca oleracea is typically stir-fried alone or with eggs in Taishan County, offering a mildly sour and smooth flavor profile.
