Why people make this dish

When the summer turns hot and sticky, Nourilo likes to reach for the simplest greens of the season. Tender pumpkin shoots are exactly that — humble, fresh, and quick. In the food-therapy tradition they are valued in damp, muggy weather to help the body feel light and unclogged. A plain stir-fry lets their grassy sweetness come through.

Safety first — read before you cook
