Radish hairpin is a traditional food of Hakka people. After the production is completed, it should be distributed to everyone in the family to celebrate the smooth days of the past year.
The practices vary from place to place, but they are similar. They all cut radishes into shreds, make fillings with bacon, mushrooms, shrimps, peanuts and onions, and then wrap them in glutinous rice balls, usually in the shape of jiaozi, or make them into various shapes with other materials according to their own tastes, which can be steamed, boiled and fried.
Hakka, the essential food for the festival is radish hairpin. Radish hairpin has a long history, and eating radish hairpin on holidays is a traditional custom handed down by Hakka ancestors. The so-called "hairpin" is a food made of rice processed into flour.
The main raw materials of radish hairpin are sticky rice flour, radish and banana leaves, and the ingredients are shrimp, pork, squid, tofu skin and mushrooms, which can be adjusted according to personal hobbies.
The process of making radish hairpins is complicated and patient. The production process needs to be rubbed, wrapped, steamed and boiled, paying attention to strength and heat. The stuffing in the radish hairpin pays attention to reasonable collocation, and it is more sluggish and less flat.
Hakka people have a special liking for "hairpin", which can be roughly divided into two reasons. A thousand years ago, Hakkas were originally residents of wheat-growing areas in northern China. They mainly used steamed bread, jiaozi, noodles and wowotou pasta. After moving to the south, they changed to rice because of the rice farming environment, so they made rice noodles into chopsticks similar to northern pasta to remember their ancestors and relieve homesickness. Secondly, there are many mountains in the south, and some relatively rich plains have long been occupied by indigenous people. The Hakkas who moved south had to live in the mountains. Because glutinous rice contains more amylose, it is sticky, difficult to digest and satiety-resistant, and its products can stay in the stomach for a long time without feeling hungry, so Hakka people often take glutinous rice as a snack between meals to support heavy work.
