There have been many legends about the various forms of appetizers. Some people can drink a salted duck egg for a week. The salted duck egg opens a mouth, sticks it in with chopsticks, then takes it out and licks it, and then drinks a mouthful of wine.
There is also a classic legend that someone ate chicken feet and drank, and half of them fell to the ground. The man groped for the chicken feet on the ground by the dim light, and then continued to sip the chicken feet with wine. It was only after dawn that he found that he had found a nail, and the dessert for one night was nail with white wine.
As for pebbles with wine, it is to wash pebbles, soak them in salt water, and lick a stone and take a sip of wine when drinking. It is said to be delicious.
Some local appetizers are also very strange. There is an appetizer similar to earthworm in Beihai, Guangxi, which is also a famous appetizer called earthworm, but it is estimated that few foreigners who have seen this appetizer have the courage to eat it. Nanjing's hairy eggs are a delicious appetizer. The so-called hairy egg is the immature embryo of chicken, which has the shape of an egg. This is also very bad for foreigners in general.
Smelly wax gourd, a famous traditional flavor in Ningbo, is for this name. The taste of this food has discouraged many people. Smelly wax gourd is pickled with salt and smelly brine. The pickled stinky wax gourd is covered with frost, which smells or looks like it is broken, but it is said that it tastes very fresh and delicious, which is perfect with small wine.
When Shi Kefa went out to fight, he was worried about his country and people on New Year's Eve. He just wanted to drown his sorrows by drinking, but all the food was sealed to the soldiers, so he could only drink with salt and fermented beans.
However, at any time, no matter how strange the appetizer is, the most versatile dish should be a plate of peanuts!
