winter bamboo shoots
The first episode of China on the Tip of the Tongue focuses on winter bamboo shoots in Suichang, which shows that this precious delicacy is a gift from nature to Suichang.
Unlike spring bamboo shoots, winter bamboo shoots are tender bamboo shoots that have not been unearthed before beginning of spring. Experienced farmers need to find the right location and dig it out of the soil, which is excellent in both nutritional value and taste.
The winter bamboo shoots in Suichang grow on the mountains above 1000 meters above sea level and are hidden under the local loess with high viscosity. The thick soil layer is 80 cm or even more than one meter thick, and it tastes delicious and rich.
Suichang changzong
Suichang Zongzi is a famous "network celebrity Zongzi" on the Dragon Boat Festival. It is said that the longer the zongzi, the deeper the blessing.
Like winter bamboo shoots, Suichang Zongzi is also the darling of CCTV. This year's Dragon Boat Festival, CCTV reported the 70-meter-long Suichang Zongzi as a gift for the 70th birthday of the motherland.
The length of common long zongzi is generally from tens of centimeters to one or two meters, which is more overbearing than ordinary zongzi. Compared with ordinary food, Zongzi is more like a symbol of ceremony, so Suichang Zongzi is also called "Longai Zongzi" and "Sharing Zongzi". Each long zongzi is wrapped by 9, 10 wild mountain Indocalamus leaves, and then tightly tied into eight to nine sections with Gracilaria lemaneiformis, which means long and round.
Golden feast
In Suichang Gold Mine National Mine Park, you can not only enjoy sightseeing, but also feast your eyes and taste the special gold banquet of Suichang real gold.
But not all gold can be used. The gold banquet in Suichang Gold Mine is made of edible gold foil specially made by nanotechnology. When it is added to vegetables, it can eliminate heavy metal toxins in human body and has the effect of beauty beauty.
Hushan wild fish
Lake Mountain is a good place for fishing. Anglers often sit by the lake for a day. However, many fishing gods didn't take these victory fruits home, but set up simple stoves on the shore and started cooking fish on the spot.
Early rice cake
Early rice cake, also known as thousand-layer cake and grey juice cake, is made of new early rice this year, hence the name.
The taste is soft and sticky, followed by the fragrance of leaves and the sweet and soft impact. I want to eat it after eating it.
Yan Fenglu
"Wind furnace" is synonymous with Suichang traditional hot pot, a method of burning soil for farmers in Suichang for a hundred years, and a warm memory handed down from generation to generation by Suichang people.
Almost all restaurants in Suichang have air stoves. I heard that there is a saying in Suichang that the more hot stoves there are on the table of a meal, the more distinguished they are, which shows that hot stoves are indispensable here.
Bamboo charcoal banquet
Another special banquet in Suichang will be a bamboo charcoal banquet.
Su Shi has a poem: "Eating without meat is better than living without bamboo". Suichang is both a "bamboo producer" and a "bamboo eater". There are endless bamboo seas everywhere, and there are even more bamboo charcoal banquets.
Jiaotan fish head
Jiaotan fish head is also one of the must-eat foods in Suichang. The ingredients are local ecological silver carp in Wuxi River, which is big, tender and delicious.
The chef fried the fish head until it was tender outside, then added the peasant tofu and cucumber, covered with mint leaves and heated it in a charcoal stove. The soup is spicy and fresh, and it makes people drool.
Oil drum _
Oil drum _ is a famous snack in Suichang Street, with pumpkin stuffing, sauerkraut stuffing and so on. Looking golden and crisp, it looks very pleasing.
After the filling is done, make it into paste, wrap it, and fry it in a pot until golden. Then, open a small mouth with a spoon and put some pickled peppers into your mouth, so that the delicate flavor of the peppers and the fragrance of the stuffing are combined. Bite it down, it's crispy outside and tender inside, and it's really delicious.
Sweet potato strips
As soon as I walked into Zhedaikou Township, Suichang County, I saw golden eyes, sweet potatoes overflowing, and every household was making sweet potato strips.
Boiled peanuts
Simple boiled peanuts are also fragrant, risking the most common fireworks. The taste of spiced food is especially suitable as a snack or snack, which is very boring.
