Our general practice here is to make mouse wax after smoking, which was my favorite when I was a child, but now I can't see it. Mud snail can't eat enough for me, and it is also a dish in Fujian, but it is not a heavy taste, because many places have the habit of eating mud snail, eating dried mouse, bamboo shoots and frozen chicken embryos, and dried mouse is our specialty, which is sometimes not sold by rich families.
Frozen bamboo shoots in Jinjiang is famous. I have to eat more than ten yuan a day in Jinjiang. The small one is frozen bamboo shoots in 3 yuan, and the big one is 5 yuan. It's delicious with garlic paste and vinegar. Dried mice are a favorite dish from snacks to big ones! My hometown in college brought some fried food to my roommates, saying it was rabbit meat, and a group of people ate no residue left! Let me bring them when I go back to my hometown next time, voles and mountain rat, especially in autumn and winter! My favorite food is dry fried white radish with mice.
The first one, "urine eggs" and "urine meat", as the name implies, is the eggs and meat stewed with urine. In Yongchun County, Fujian Province, urine eggs and urine meat were selected into the intangible cultural heritage list of Yongchun County, which is definitely a dark dish for foreigners. However, it is a kind of delicious food in the local people, and it is quite exquisite. Not all urine will do. The urine of stewed eggs and meat must also be boy urine. If it is done much, you have to go to the kindergarten to get it. We know that boy urine can ward off evil spirits, but we don't know that it still has this function. It is said that the heart of the urine egg is still a little sweet, and the urine meat is very fragrant, tender and delicious. I will just have a look at this, but I don't need to taste it.
The second dish, drunken mud snail, is actually similar to drunken shrimp and drunken crab, that is, it is basically eaten raw. Drunken crabs are also divided into cooked drunken crabs and raw drunken crabs, while drunken mud snails are really eaten raw. The way to get drunk with mud snails is to marinate them in jars with salt and yellow wine plus some spices. Although this way has a unique flavor, I personally think it is unhealthy. Because the mud snail itself will carry bacteria, if it is not heated, it can't effectively kill those bacteria, and eating it may affect human health. Anyway, I dare not eat it.
The third one, Liugan, is actually a kind of annelid, whose scientific name is Nereis pipiens, and in Guangdong, it is generally called a cereal worm. It is not very good-looking, and it has the characteristics of soft, red and green stripes. Dried yam can be used for cooking, but it is so dense that not everyone can stand it. However, it is rich in protein, and the output is not much, and the price is relatively high. Sometimes you may not be able to eat it if you want.
In addition to the above three, there are mango dipped in soy sauce, dried mouse, sea centipede, chicken fetus, frozen bamboo shoots, etc., which will not be introduced in detail. Interested friends can check it online themselves. Although I am from Guangxi, I dare not eat any of the above except dried mice, dried fruits and mangoes dipped in soy sauce. Friends from other provinces must try them when they go to Fujian, so Cantonese people should not go because Fujian people are afraid.
I have been in Xiamen for some time, and my personal opinion is that I don't agree with what the subject said about "many foods with heavy tastes". Although Fujian's diet has the characteristics of Lingnan, you can eat it if you dare, but the food with heavy taste is not much. I personally have eaten and contacted it, and I feel that there are some different kinds, which are the following.
Usually we eat octopus, which is boiled and dipped in sauce. This is not a heavy taste. However, in some restaurants, you can also eat a special kind of octopus. There are also some shops that are a little less fierce and just eat octopus legs raw, but they are also quite scary.
Octopus, a creature, is very flexible, and even if it is a leg, it will creep and feel like it is alive. If the taste is good, it is really good, but the look and feel of this dish itself does have some heavy tastes.
The frozen bamboo shoots in Xiamen are very local snacks, but from my experience in receiving guests, many people are afraid to eat them. Of course, most people who have eaten it think it's delicious, but I specially found a picture that can show the details. This creature gives people a bad visual feeling, that is, it looks like a bug, and it feels disgusting and can't be eaten, so it should be regarded as a heavy taste.
What is this creature?
Most local people in Fujian call this strange fish, but its scientific name is actually "horseshoe crab". It is also a living fossil in the biological world, and it is an important characteristic organism for evaluating marine ecology. Its blood is blue and very strange.
It is a national protected animal, and it is not edible according to the truth, but in fact, it is difficult for the regulatory authorities to cover some restaurants by the sea. To be honest, the taste is not good. If there is no stunt, it is not worth eating at all. Of course, if you are lucky enough to meet this addiction again, don't eat more. After all, this stuff is not normal food and it is easy to be poisoned.
Finally, the last favorite Fujian "heavy taste" food, dried mice. Among all kinds of food in Fujian, personally, I think it should be regarded as the heaviest taste. So far, I dare not take the initiative to eat it, but I just ate it by mistake.
There is nothing special about it, and it is close to rabbit meat. After all, biologically speaking, there is not much difference between the two.
I haven't tried dried mice, but all the others are my favorite snacks.
Usually we eat octopus, which is boiled and dipped in sauce. This is not a heavy taste. However, in some restaurants, you can also eat a special kind of octopus. There are also some shops that are a little less fierce and just eat octopus legs raw, but they are also quite scary. The local people generally like to eat dried mice, and there is a saying that "the price of dried pork with mice". When winter comes, people almost regard eating dried mice as a kind of enjoyment. Most cooking methods are accompanied by pork, winter bamboo shoots, garlic, ginger and water wine, which are fried and eaten.
It's all unhealthy food
I'm from southern Fujian, and there are eight kinds of dried mice in Fujian and western Fujian. I think it's more unacceptable. I can't imagine, other dried tofu and dried bamboo shoots are all normal food to me.
There is salted bean curd here in Zhangzhou, Fujian Province, which is bean curd+vermicelli, and marinated with brine. Except for Zhangzhou people, many Xiamen people are not used to it.
There are frozen bamboo shoots in Xiamen, but many people dare not eat them, so the sand worms can be clearly seen, but it is delicious with garlic mustard sauce.
Blood clams are also eaten by many people along the coast of Fujian. Wash the clean mud clams with boiling water. This temperature is very demanding, and it won't open when it is raw. It's not delicious when it is old. Bright red X water tastes the best, but in fact, many Fujian people dare not eat or don't like it.
There is also a salted chicken fetus, that is, the chickens that are not fully hatched are in the eggs, which are said to be very tonic. When they were young, they ate more, but when they grew up, they dared not eat.
In my impression, there are cicadas and silkworm chrysalis in summer, which I dare not eat myself.
Are preserved eggs, litchi dipped in soy sauce and mango dipped in soy sauce considered as heavy tastes?
The main thing is Sanming's dried mice, as well as chicks, which is not a very heavy taste.
