Daylily () is a perennial herb of the genus of Liliaceae. It is also an economically important crop and is widely cultivated. Daylily has nutritional, medicinal and ornamental values. The research literature shows that daylily is a high-quality food raw material rich in soluble sugars, ascorbic acid, flavonoids, dietary fiber, carotenoids, mineral elements, polyphenols and other nutrients, which are effective in clearing heat and diuresis, resolving bruises and stopping bleeding, strengthening the stomach and brain, and reducing serum cholesterol levels. This article reviews the main nutrients of daylily and summarizes the drying process of daylily. In addition, due to the existence of active ingredients, daylily also has a variety of biological activities that are beneficial to human health. This article also highlights the nutritional quality of daylily, the research progress of dried vegetable rehydration technology and dried daylily. In the end, the undeveloped molecular mechanism and functional research status of daylily worldwide are introduced in order to provide reference for the nutritional quality research and dried processing industry of daylily.
萱草()是百合科萱草属的多年生草本植物。它也是一种经济上重要的作物，被广泛种植。萱草具有营养价值、药用价值和观赏价值。研究文献表明，萱草是一种优质的食品原料，富含可溶性糖、抗坏血酸、类黄酮、膳食纤维、类胡萝卜素、矿物质元素、多酚等营养物质，具有清热利尿、化瘀止血、健脾胃、降血清胆固醇等功效。本文综述了萱草的主要营养成分，并总结了萱草的干燥工艺。此外，由于含有活性成分，萱草还具有多种有益于人体健康的生物活性。本文还强调了萱草的营养价值、干菜复水技术的研究进展和干萱草。最后，介绍了萱草在全球范围内尚未开发的分子机制和功能研究现状，以期为萱草的营养价值研究和干制加工业提供参考。
