It's a natural substance produced by the plant, like a waxy layer on many leaves. Do you cook with it or use it fresh? I know native Americans used lambsquarter in the Mississippi River valley.

What is the powdery stuff on the tiny new leaves of lambsquarter? Is it
good for you or should it be washed off? Lambsquarter is mighty tasty.
Yum!
