Shiqi's "Golden Bell"-Zhongshan Pink Fruit has a long history, among which Golden Bell is the representative. In addition, there are horns, leaves and red jujube cakes. There is an old story about the origin of the name "Pink Fruit Golden Bell". It is said that there is a Tota King named Li Jing on the list of deities, that is, the father of Jin Bai, Mu Bai and Nezha. Both father and son have magical and unique weapons. Let's just say that the gold hairpin is a weapon with two sharp ends, an ellipse in the middle and an interesting shape. Therefore, rice flour was used to imitate the shape of its weapon and kneaded into powder fruit, which was named as "Jin Bai". Later, it was accompanied by meat, which gradually improved to become today's gourmet gold coffin. It is also said that the golden bell powder fruit was originally unknown. In the past, because an apprentice learned to make golden bells, he couldn't crack the shells with rice flour and couldn't knead them well. The master taught him, gesticulating while talking, and said in Shiqi dialect, "Snap (homophonic golden bell), snap, and be kind." It is made of pork cheek meat (not greasy) with spices such as milk, pepper and star anise.
The eating method of Jinbiao is more particular: from the cutting-edge food to the meat stuffing, suck the oil fragrance first, and then bite the meat. Otherwise, if you bite it rashly, the oil foam will splash. In Macao, the golden casket is called a stone chisel, and its stuffing is mixed with dried shrimps, minced meat, washed garlic and so on. Master Luo Kun, a special pastry chef in Guangzhou, visited Shiqi in 1985. When he returned, he used chicken granules and yaozhu as ingredients to entertain Japanese guests who came to Guangzhou, but he couldn't eat the unique flavor of Jin Jing, so he went back to using pork cheeks as stuffing.
