Peperomia Powder
Peperomia pellucida
Peperomia (Peperomia pellucida), rau càng cua in Vietnam, is a small annual herb of the pepper family – smooth, succulent and much branched, standing 20 to 40 centimetres high. Its alternate, stalked leaves are membranous and almost translucent, triangular to ovate with a heart-shaped base, and about as broad as they are long. Thread-like flower spikes rise from the shoot tips, two or three times the length of a leaf, ripening into round berries barely half a millimetre across. Native to South America, it is now grown and has spread widely enough to turn up wild. The leafy stems, roots trimmed off, are eaten raw or cooked in soup.
