Oyster omelette Mandarin eˊ zaiˇ ( ziˇ) jian Oyster omelette Taiwanese eˊ a What you hear is Taiwanese!!!! "仔" is now pronounced "子" by the Taiwan Board of Education, but in the past, it was pronounced "zai" more often, so there are still a lot of people pronouncing it "zai", so the F4's "仔仔" is still pronounced "仔仔" instead of "子子".... There are two versions to help you po up 1: its earliest name is "fried food chase", is Tainan Anping area around the old generation of people know the traditional snacks, is to add water after the sweet potato paste wrapped oysters, pork, mushrooms and other miscellaneous ingredients fried into a cake. There is an interesting story about its origin. Rumor has it that in 1661 A.D., when the Dutch army occupied Tainan, Cheng Chenggong led his troops from Lu'ermen and attacked with the intention of regaining the lost land, and Cheng's army was defeated by the Dutch army, who, in a fit of rage, hid all the rice and grain, and Cheng's army, in the midst of a shortage of food, was quick-witted enough to make a cake out of a mix of Taiwan's specialties of oyster and sweet potato flour, water, and a and pan-fried into a cake for eating, and never expected to be passed on to the next generation, and it has become a popular snack across the province. It has become a popular snack throughout the province. However, the books published in mainland China, but there will be oyster omelette as Fujian snack records, which is another origin of the argument. Although oyster omelette can be eaten everywhere, many people still hold the idea that in order to eat oyster omelette, it is necessary to go to the oyster production area to eat, for example, to go to the oyster farms of Tainan Anping, Chiayi Dongshi or Pingtung Donggang to eat, because in order to make a delicious oyster omelette, the most important condition is the use of fresh oysters, which are now peeled freshly at the place of production and don't have to be transported for long distances to be soaked in water, so the whole piece is fat, large, fresh and delicious. These fresh oysters are freshly peeled and sold in the production area without having to be soaked in water due to long distance transportation, so each oyster is big, plump and delicious, and the oyster omelette is of course rich and juicy. However, those who don't live in the production area should not feel sorry for themselves, because modern transportation technology is well developed, so even if you are far away from Taipei, you can still eat the sweet oysters that are delivered fresh every day. In addition to fresh oysters, sweet potato flour is another important key to making oyster omelettes delicious. There are many types of sweet potato flour, but only pure sweet potato flour can produce a flavorful and rich batter. After thickening the batter with water in the right proportion, add chives to make the finished product taste sticky and Q, and the pure sweet potato flour can also subtly enhance the fresh flavor of the fat oysters, making the perfect match. The choice of eggs is also a study, and stores that value flavor will use earth eggs that are dark yellow in color, pair them with chrysanthemums in the winter and cabbage in the summer, and use lard that can enhance the flavor to fry the delicious oyster omelette, and then drizzle them with a sauce made of miso, ketchup, chili peppers, and soy sauce when you eat it. With the combination of the above ingredients, the oyster omelette, which is originally a poor cuisine, becomes exquisite and delicious, with a colorful taste of sweet and salty, salty and spicy, which is memorable in every mouthful. 2: In order to have a better understanding of oyster omelette, which is a common and delicious Taiwanese snack
The production team went to Anping Ancient Fortress, a historical site in Tainan
There is an oyster omelette store that has been opened for 40 to 50 years
We got a lot of oyster omelette's secrets from the kind lady boss. The oyster omelette was first made at home in the past
by stir-frying a few ingredients in a pot
and then sold at stalls
and so the oyster omelette has been passed down since then
The lady boss said that the oyster omelette has been in the history of Taiwan's snack food for a long time
and has existed since the Restoration period
The ingredients at that time, though not as good as the ones used in the past, are not the same. The birthplace of oyster omelette is believed to be in Tainan
because the Anping Fortress is near the Anping Harbor
and it was easy to get the goods in a natural environment
even in the early days of the Restoration, when there was not much wealth
the residents nearby could also enjoy the seafood and domestic food. The owner's wife said that an oyster omelet sold for only 3 yuan at that time
Nowadays, it costs 40 yuan for a single oyster omelet
, but the price is more than ten times of what it was at that time! Nowadays, oyster omelettes are made from bean sprouts, corns, oysters, eggs and sweet potato flour water
In the past, most oyster omelettes were made from locally sourced ingredients
Whatever was available
Nowadays, the recipe varies from one oyster omelette to another
We recommend that you go to the oyster omelette store next to the Anping Ancient Castle in Tainan and have a taste of the oyster omelette. (Quote from .knowledge.yahoo/question/?qid=1106100202858)
