Reading the bitterness
Tohoku websites describe shidoke (momijigasa) as a wild green with a butterbur-like aroma and 「ほろ苦さ」 (in translation: "slight bitterness"). Leaves are limp and strongly flavored, stems soft yet with some bite; another article describes 「独特の香りとホロ苦さ、歯ざわりが特徴で、ちょっと大人向けの食材」 (in translation: "a distinctive aroma, slight bitterness, and mouthfeel; an ingredient somewhat for adults"). These are commercial descriptions, not sensory-panel results.
It is commonly introduced as boiled greens or tempura. Academic or official sources were not confirmed in this scope, so the record remains limited to commercial articles.
