At present, 13 sweet lobster has entered thousands of households in large and medium-sized cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Nanjing, and enjoys a certain reputation in the catering industry.
Xuyi lobster is famous for its cooking methods. Firstly, its ingredients are unique, that is, thirteen spices (composed of dozens of Chinese herbal medicines). In addition, large and small restaurants in Xuyi use noodle boxes and face boxes instead of bowls and plates when serving lobsters. Due to the high price of crabs in previous years, ordinary people had to use shrimp instead of crabs, so Xuyi lobster was dubbed as "crab assistant".
It can be said that Xuyi is one of the earliest places to eat lobster. With the popularity of 13 sweet lobster, in order to promote the economic development of our county, the People's Government of Xuyi County held the first loong Xuyi Lobster Festival in mid-July 2. During this period, many activities were held, such as "Large-scale Literary Evening", "Tian Quan Lake Dragon Boat Race", "Mountain Off-road Vehicle Exhibition Race", "Water Traditional Folk Wedding" and "Lobster Banquet for Thousand People".
so what's the relationship between this cheap crayfish and those expensive lobsters? The scientific name of crayfish, also known as crayfish, belongs to the crustacean river shrimp, which is small and lobster-like, so it is also called crayfish. The first pair of legs is extremely developed, similar to crab claws; The shell is bright and beautiful, showing blood red; Often inhabit the mountain stream and its nearby rivers. This kind of crayfish, Xuyi, also known as Crayfish, belongs to the same family of crayfish, and often lives in the field and its shore.
crayfish, which is large, has a thick shell and a dark red body. It originated in North America, was introduced by Japan, and was introduced to China in 193s. Because of its strong ability of survival and reproduction, crayfish can be seen in southern China, especially in various provinces and cities in the Yangtze River basin. The harm that crayfish can do to dams is determined by its habit of burrowing. Its front end has a pair of pincers-like claws, which make holes quickly and widely. Because they often live on the banks of rivers, reservoirs, ponds and paddy fields, the harm to dams may be greater than that of termites. Field investigation shows that crayfish mainly appear on the back surface of dams. As long as there are puddles, ditches or very wet places, they will generally be found.
The nutritional and medicinal value of lobster
It is the key to choose shrimp when making Xuyi 13 sweet lobster. You must choose a fresh and big one, which looks bright on the surface and is stiff, and if you buy female shrimp, the taste will be more delicious. The way to identify a female lobster is to see if there are a pair of triangular spines on the lower epidermis of the head-body connection part of the shrimp, and if there are, it is a female crayfish. Also, after buying shrimp, it is best to put it in water for a day to make it spit out the sediment in its body.
Maybe you think this lobster is not nutritious. You eat it just for a taste and an atmosphere, but it's not. The nutritional components of Crayfish are similar to those of sea shrimp, but the sea shrimp tastes fresher, so people think that it has high nutritional components. The types and contents of nutrients in aquatic products are no less than those in livestock and poultry meat, while the nutritional components in various shrimps are almost the same. All kinds of shrimps are high in protein and low in fat, with the protein content accounting for about 16%-2% and the fat content less than .2%. Moreover, the fat contained is mainly composed of unsaturated fatty acids, which is suitable for human body to absorb. The content of trace elements such as zinc, iodine and selenium in shrimp meat is higher than that in other foods. At the same time, its muscle fiber is tender and easy to digest and absorb.
Lobster is not only white and tender, but also delicious, with high protein, low fat and rich nutrition. Lobster also has medicinal value, which can eliminate phlegm and relieve cough, and promote the wound healing after operation.
In this way, lobster is delicious and nutritious, and will definitely be favored by more and more people.
