The first one is boiled eggs made from children’s urine in Jinhua, Zhejiang Province.
It is estimated that many people have seen in some movies, TV shows and literary works that children's urine can be used as medicine, and there is such a delicacy in Jinhua, Zhejiang, which is eggs cooked with children's urine and eggs - children's urine.
Boil eggs.
This is a well-known delicacy in the local area. Usually in the beginning of spring, many rural families will collect the urine of children under the age of 5 and then use it to boil eggs.
Some people who don’t have children at home will go to the kindergarten to line up to pick up the urine of their children.
They are also particular about children's urine. It must be from a boy under 5 years old, and then put it in a pot and boil it for two days and one night.
Boiled eggs cannot be eaten immediately. They must be kept cold for the next day and then heated in the fire before eating.
In order to make the eggs more delicious, some people will break the eggs after they are cooked and continue to cook them.
At present, the local children's urine boiled eggs have become an intangible cultural heritage in Dongyang City, Zhejiang Province. When many people travel to the local area, they will see them sold near scenic spots, and the price is several times more expensive than tea eggs.
The second type: Many people have probably eaten moldy amaranth stems and moldy tofu from Zhejiang, and everyone is familiar with amaranth, but have you ever eaten moldy amaranth stems?
It is a delicacy made from pickled old pickle stalks.
It is said that there is another legend about the moldy amaranth stem. When Gou Jian, the king of Yue, was defeated in the war, he became a slave in the state of Wu. Because of the defeat and famine, the people of the state of Yue could only dig various wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger.
An old man dug a lot of wild amaranth in the wild and ate the fresh stems and leaves first. The remaining amaranth stems were too old and hard to eat.
It felt like a pity to throw it away, so I put it in a clay pot and planned to cook it later when I didn't have it.
I didn't remember it until a few days later, but when I took it out, I found that there was a strong "aroma" in the jar, and it was slippery to the touch.
So the old man steamed it and ate it. Unexpectedly, it was very delicious and melted in your mouth. So the locals followed suit one after another and created the delicacy of moldy amaranth stems.
Many people like to eat stinky tofu because it smells bad and tastes delicious.
Molded amaranth stems were once used as raw materials for soaking stinky tofu. They smell very stinky and look unappetizing, so many outsiders find it difficult to swallow.
Especially eating it for the first time requires enough courage.
The third type: Beijing bean juice. Soy milk is a drink that many people often drink for breakfast. Have you ever drank Beijing bean juice?
A few years ago, I went to Beijing for a period of time. At that time, I ordered a glass of Beijing bean juice on the recommendation of a classmate, but I spit it out after just one sip.
As a traditional delicacy in Beijing, Beijing bean juice is also very famous. Many local people grew up drinking it.
But for the majority of outsiders, it is difficult to accept it.
According to my classmate, the method of Beijing bean juice is different from that of soy milk. It is made by grinding mung beans in water to make vermicelli or dough. After removing the starch, the remaining light green and bluish soup is fermented and brewed.
It is said that Emperor Qianlong also liked to drink it, and it was also a breakfast drink often consumed by the royal family.
But for many outsiders, it is difficult to accept its taste.
The fourth type: Fujian’s hairy eggs.
In the past, every rural household would incubate eggs, but during the incubation process, the eggs would fail to hatch due to temperature or other reasons.
The common people are reluctant to throw away these eggs, so they steam them, or peel them and fry them.
Because these eggs have begun to develop, and some have grown feathers, they are called hairy eggs, or prosperous eggs, happy eggs, hairy eggs, chicken fetuses, etc.
In Fujian, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and other places, there is a custom of eating raw eggs. In recent years, some places have even sold them as local delicacies.
But for many people who have never eaten it, it still takes a lot of courage to dare to eat it.
The fifth type: Guizhou’s Beef Soup.
With the development of tourism in Guizhou in recent years, the reputation of Niuba Soup has become more and more popular.
This signature dish is found in restaurants and farmhouses in many tourist attractions.
Sometimes when there are many people, you have to make a reservation in advance to get food.
The so-called beef soup is a kind of soup made from the undigested grass in the belly of the cow. The locals will use it to cook hot pot and soup.
Beef soup is a famous food in the largest Dong village in southeastern Guizhou, and it is also the highest courtesy for locals to entertain guests.
But I have been in Guizhou for a while, and I really don’t like Niuban Soup.
Because it is not like stinky tofu, not only the taste is unacceptable, but the appearance also makes people stay away from it.
