? The "brain" of chrysanthemum brain is pronounced "old" in Nanjing dialect. If you go to the vegetable market and ask "How much is a catty of chrysanthemum brain" in Mandarin, people will know that you are a foreigner.
? Chrysanthemum brain is definitely a specialty of Nanjing. I have never seen this dish outside. Even people in other parts of Jiangsu province don't know. My uncle went to Hangzhou as a teenager. A few years ago, my mother cooked a pot of chrysanthemum brain and egg soup, and he didn't even know the taste. Anyone who tastes chrysanthemum brain for the first time, once he carefully puts chrysanthemum brain in his mouth, will immediately show surprise, indicating that it tastes great-as a Nanjing native, he will also show pride when he sees this scene.
? Chrysanthemum brain is generally used to make egg soup. Traditionally, fresh duck eggs have been used, but now they have been replaced by eggs. A little older chrysanthemum brain can be fried and eaten, but it is not as refreshing as egg soup.
? In the past, my family opened a piece of land by the river on the east side of No.4, specializing in chrysanthemum brain. It's incredible to see someone selling chrysanthemum brains in the food market. Now in the no.4 hospital, there are only sporadic places with some growth.
? I have always believed the rumor that chrysanthemum brain can only grow in Nanjing, and it can't grow without Nanjing. I heard this statement from the media when I was a child. Since I have never seen chrysanthemum brain anywhere else, I am convinced.
? At the beginning of April this year, Jingjing returned home from Chengdu. The day before I left, I asked for some chrysanthemum brain seedlings. I told the rumor, but she denied it, saying that a classmate who went to Japan brought seeds to plant, and there was nothing unusual after eating them.
? In order to verify this statement, a month later, I asked her to take a photo of the chrysanthemum brain planted and send it to me.
? Although there are only a few chrysanthemum brains in the photo, you really can't tell the difference. I asked her if she had tasted it. She laughed and said that she ate too little.
? That's right. A little chrysanthemum brain can only appease the yearning for hometown. Don't think about eating, or leave it for autumn to bloom fragrant little yellow flowers, let the taste of hometown float all over the house, and then a foreign land becomes a hometown.
? Alas, I have really been cheated for half my life!
