Shaoxing is known as "Three Smells". If you go to Shaoxing, you must try it! These three stinks represent stinky tofu, stinky amaranth stalks and stinky wax gourd respectively. The stinky amaranth stalk is the king of the three. Those who dare to eat stinky tofu and stinky melons may not dare to eat stinky amaranth stalks. It is estimated that it will take several years to practice. The preparation method is relatively simple. Cut fresh amaranth stalks into small pieces, soak them in cold water for 8 hours, then wash and drain, sprinkle with coarse salt, stir and marinate for 12 hours, then drain the water, then put them in a sealed bottle and seal them with gauze or cotton cloth. After three days, add some water and salt and continue to marinate for three days. Shaoxing's stinky amaranth stalks have a long history and have always been loved by many people.
