Lotus blood duck is a famous dish that has been circulating for a long time. Not only delicious, tender and delicious, but also allusions have a long history.
In the first year of Song Jingyan (1276), the Yuan army occupied Lin 'an and went south. Wen Tianxiang, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, was a teacher and a diligent king. At that time, anti-Yuan struggles were surging everywhere. Thousands of brave people in Lotus responded and built a thatched cottage to fight against the Yuan Army. One day, heroes from all walks of life got together to discuss the great cause of the world, and prepared to raise a handsome flag and drink blood wine, but there was a shortage of chickens at that time, so duck blood was used instead.
The oath of drinking blood was quite grand, the handsome flag fluttered, cigarettes filled, and heroes from all walks of life stood in front of the handsome flag holding deep red blood wine. The leader came to the stage with blood wine to sacrifice the flag. I wish Premier Wen's army invincible and his rebel army victory. After the ceremony, prepare to gulp down the blood wine. Suddenly, when I heard the news that the Prime Minister had arrived, everyone cheered and shook the sky. It turned out that Wen Tianxiang led the troops out of Jiangxi from Linghai, and good news came all the way. This time he came here to strengthen the anti-Yuan team. Premier Wen shared blood and wine with the strong men, which greatly boosted morale. The leader arranged a banquet.
It is said that there is a man named Liu Delin in the Huotoujun, who is a restaurant chef and a good cook. It is a big event to host a banquet in honor of Premier Wen today. He is a little nervous. Stir-fried several dishes in a panic. It's time to fry the duck. He put the chopped duck in the pot. Because of his panic, he poured the blood wine he had not finished just now as hot sauce. When he realized it, it was too late to remedy it. He was afraid that the blood wine was not delicious, so he fried it carefully and suddenly smelled a spicy taste. He looked carefully and saw that the food was mushy and purple. He tasted it and it was more delicious than usual. Liu Delin was overjoyed and said to himself, "Today is the first time to fry such a delicious dish." When the dish was served, Premier Wen tasted it and was full of praise. He asked, "Why this dish?" Liu Delin thought for a moment and replied, "Just call it a blood duck." Premier Wen stood up and stressed: "Today, heroes from all walks of life gather together to discuss the great cause of benefiting the country. We drank blood wine, ate blood duck and vowed to fight the enemy to the end! " The big earthquake shook. That was the day when we set out to recover Yongxin and other counties. At that time, it was huge and famous.
Since then, "Lotus Blood Duck" has been famous all over the world and passed down from generation to generation. Later, due to the recommendation of Zhu Yifan, the teacher of the last emperor Puyi, "Lotus Blood Duck" became the royal menu of the court in the late Qing Dynasty. As a result, "Furong Blood Duck" became famous for a while, and everyone knew it! During the Lushan Meeting, it was praised as a special dish by Mao Zedong.
One summer in 1950s, a mysterious phone call was made to Lianhua County, and a chef named Li Guifa was asked to go to Nanchang to take some ducklings to fry the famous lotus dish-blood duck for the old comrades in Jinggangshan. Who is this old comrade? Mao Zedong, He Zizhen and Ceng Zhi. It is said that because Mao Zedong ate this dish during the Great Revolution, he never forgot it, so when he visited Nanchang after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he specially sent someone to invite a chef from Lotus to cook this Tao Ren blood duck.
Not only Mao Zedong, but also the Lotus people are fascinated by this dish. In July and August of the lunar calendar, there are many sacrificial festivals in the countryside. No matter how poor the family is, it is still necessary to kill a duckling. As the saying goes: On July 7th, feather ducks killed some. Kill a duck that has just grown to 562 pounds, prepare yellow wine, tea oil, big red pepper, and sometimes add loofah, green beans and fresh eggplant, and cook it carefully. Adults and children worship God. After ancestor worship, the elderly eat duck kidneys, the children eat duck legs, and the adults have a pot of wine and have a good meal. You can't eat this kind of duck in a foreign land. It depends on the crispy duck grown in Lianhua Mountain, the tea oil produced in Lianhua Mountain, the mellow water wine brewed in Lianhua Mountain, the red pepper in Lotus Garden and the craftsmanship of the old folks in Lianhua Mountain. ...
