Spring is a time for growth. Light meals are most recommended during this season containing young plants, fresh greens, sprouts and cereal grass to support the gallbladder and liver. Flavors to enjoy are sweet and pungent. Sweet flavored plants may include young beets, carrots and other sweet starchy vegetables. Cook food for a shorter time at a higher temperature. Saute with oil at a high temperature. Light steam or simmer minimally when cooking with water.
