The reporter's feelings
There is no story without coincidence.
In all the stories in the world, there is a word "Qiao". The marriage between people and the meeting between lovers are not comparable to the word "Qiao". Girls want to be smart, so they "seek cleverness" on Tanabata; Couples hope to be happy and spend the rest of their lives together, so they come to the moon to wait for the meeting of the cowherd and the weaver girl. When it comes to delicious food, why not rely on the word "Qiao"?
There are too many coincidences in life, whether it is "small" or "clever", the birth of "seven clever" food itself is the ingenious idea of countless gourmets and chefs. Looking for all kinds of "smart" food, we can't help but sigh: the cleverness of food lies outside this food. There are countless kinds of "smart" foods in the world, and everything we do is to attract jade. The so-called "coincidence is not a book", all kinds of delicious and real tastes depend on the gourmets themselves to savor them.
Tanabata food custom
Proper fruit is the most famous food in Chinese Valentine's Day. In the Song Dynasty, appropriate fruits were sold in the market. The way to make a proper fruit is to melt the sugar into syrup in a pot, then mix it with flour and sesame seeds, spread it on the table, let it cool, cut it into cubes with a knife, and finally fold it into a spindle-shaped fruit embryo and fry it until golden brown. In addition, there are many changes in the melons and fruits used in Qiqiao: either the melons and fruits are carved into exotic flowers and birds, or the surface of the melon skin is embossed; This kind of melon is called "flower melon".
