Red-scale fish: also known as Chilin fish and striped fish, it is one of the eight treasures in China. It is a small wild fish unique to Mount Tai. Cyprinidae, the genus Cynoglossus. Under natural conditions, the adult fish is 2 cm and weighs 1 grams. The side of the body is flat, the abdomen is round, the head is blunt, and there are two pairs of tiny short whiskers on the upper lip.

The streams in Taishan Mountain are rich in algae, with low temperature, curved runoff, rich oxygen, neutral pH value and low content of various minerals, forming a unique ecological environment for red scale fish, so it is said that "red scale fish will not go down the mountain". 6. Taishan Pancakes: Taian has a history of spreading pancakes for more than 1, years. Tai 'an pancake, which is made of corn and millet and ground into paste, is as thin as paper, crisp as crisp, low in moisture and resistant to storage. It is a long-standing traditional food in Tai 'an. Tai 'an folk song says well: "Eat pancakes, roll green onions, taste delicious, and compete for oil cakes". The traditional pancakes are round and flaky, with a diameter of about one meter. They are thin, crisp, fragrant and crisp, with eggs, persimmons, sesame seeds, salt and pepper as the top grade. When eating, they are stacked into square blocks or rolled into strips, or they can be sandwiched with cold and hot vegetables like western sandwiches or hamburgers. If you dip onion in sweet sauce to roll pancakes, it will become an authentic Shandong famous food-pancake rolls with onion, which is the kind that Liu Yong gave to He Kun in the last episode of the TV series "Prime Minister Liu Luoguo", which will make nave, who has tasted delicacies all over the world, full of praise and unforgettable for life ... The main tools for making pancakes are iron arrowheads, bamboo blanks, spoons and shovels, etc., and set up a small farm yard. A woman can cook while burning the fire, usually grinding the paste the night before, and starting early the next morning, after heating the fire, dip a thick square cloth (commonly known as "oilcloth") in soybean oil to polish the seeds evenly, so as to clean and decontaminate the cooked pancakes and prevent them from sticking. Next, I began to scoop a spoonful of paste with a rice spoon and pour it on the rice dumpling. I spread the batter evenly around the rice dumpling with a long bamboo blank (or bamboo rake or wooden shovel) until the batter was covered with the whole rice dumpling. After a few seconds, the pancake was cooked by heating, and the middle was hard and the periphery was soft. Then I peeled off a whole round thin pancake from the rice dumpling with my hands. The thickness of the paste spread on the hazelnut determines the thickness of the pancake, and it is also a measure of the level of a woman's pancake. Skilled women can bake two pieces of cigarettes at the same time, draw the bow left and right, wave it up and down, scoop up the stalls and grind them, which is just a dance of labor, and can bake more than ten kilograms of pancakes every hour. Pancakes are also very particular about technology and heat. When the fire is big, it is easy to bake and dry, while when the fire is small, it is difficult to uncover. Spread it too fast to touch the seeds, spread it too slowly and heat it unevenly ... There is also a method called "rolling pancakes": make corn flour or dried melon flour into a spherical dough, hold it with both hands and roll it on the seeds, then use a bamboo ruler to cover the leakage and flatten it, and stick a shovel or bamboo ruler to the edge of the seeds after it is cooked, and finally. Mount Tai is a treasure house of oriental history and culture, and the cradle of ancient civilization in China. With its long-term cultural accumulation, it has left many precious cultural relics and traditional skills. Pancake is an important staple food among Shandong people. Those who study Shandong food customs must check it out. Shandong pancake originated from Mount Tai and has a history of more than 1 years. Among the utensils unearthed in Dawenkou, there is also a kind called "Xunzi". The secret of choosing hiking shoes The two most basic equipment for outdoor sports are shoes and bags. The quality of these two equipments can directly affect people's feeling of outdoor sports. How to evaluate and select hiking shoes is always concerned by everyone. Here we talk about the evaluation of portable hiking shoes. Portable hiking shoes are mostly low-cut shoes designed for hiking, which can be evaluated from the following aspects: 1. Applicability: This is the most important source of scores. The key is the middle spacer of the sole. The material it uses should be able to fully absorb the impulse transmitted to the sole and heel during a certain degree of exercise. Is there a firm toe guard at the front of the shoe and a corresponding guard at the heel? The material of the shoe mouth should not only protect the ankle, but also keep the air permeability. Second, harmony and comfort: the design of a pair of good hiking shoes gives you the first feeling of "harmony and feet" after you put them on. Excellent conformal design makes the insole support the whole sole of your foot, not the part of your foot, thus making the stress uniform. You won't get tired quickly when you go hiking and climbing mountains for a long time. A pair of good shoes will hold your feet very comfortably. So, be sure to try it and feel it carefully. Third, the surface texture: the main applicable season of light shoes is summer or hot climate. Therefore, the selection of its surface texture is different from that of high-top hiking shoes. I prefer the mixed design of high-quality leather and chemical fiber. It not only has the toughness of leather, but also reduces some weight and maintains good air permeability. Some light shoes are also designed with waterproof interlayer, which has waterproof function. Can cope with shallow water pits, dew on grass and light rain. But this additional function will increase the weight of shoes and weaken the air permeability. Fourth, the tension of the sole: the sole with tough surface tension and deep anti-slip groove should be the first choice, and it is also the place with high score in the evaluation. The sole with strong surface tension makes the steps steady when climbing the rock road surface. The deep anti-slip groove makes it still comfortable in the mud. In some formal outdoor stores, there are several natural plane rock slabs with different rocks and 5×5mm square, which are placed at an inclination of 3 degrees next to the shoe cabinets, for customers to try the real performance of the soles on the rock slabs. 5. Multifunctional: Finally, a light hiking shoe with excellent outdoor performance, such as mountaineering, long-distance running, cycling and traveling, and stylish appearance design is also a source of points. It makes a pair of shoes versatile. A pair of fashionable and beautiful shoes, if you can do outdoor sports and wear them casually; Who doesn't like walking through the green fields, walking on the streets on weekends and going in and out of fashionable bars? Taishan Snack Tai 'an Pancake: Pancake is a famous Shandong snack, but it is more distinctive in Taishan. The pancakes in Taishan are different from those in other places in Shandong.

Third, Taishan pancakes are as thin as cicadas and almost transparent. Pancakes taste slightly sour, soft and delicious. Pancakes became a common occurrence in Tai 'an at the latest in Ming Dynasty. Snacks with pancakes as the main ingredients include oil pancakes (pancakes baked with onion oil, tofu or cabbage) and sugar crisp pancakes (baked with millet flour and white sugar). Pancakes and scallions are a popular food in the streets and alleys that women and children know. Sanmei Tofu: No matter whether you go to a high-end restaurant or a street restaurant, you can taste the delicious Taian Sanmei Tofu. Sanmei Tofu takes the meaning of the folk saying that "Tai 'an has three beauties, cabbage, tofu and water". The real best way is to stew with Taishan spring water in addition to tofu and cabbage, so it is recommended that you choose to taste this dish near the foothills or where there are springs on the way to climb the mountain. In addition, tofu balls, pot-collapsed tofu, casserole tofu, milk soup tofu, soft-cooked tofu, mutton stewed tofu and tofu scrambled eggs are also delicious snacks everywhere. Taishan barbecue: Mountain barbecue seems to be popular in Taishan in the past five or six years. There are three main ways to eat Taishan barbecue. First, the mutton is cut into small pieces with shredded onion, and the seasoning is put on a flat iron plate for frying and roasting. Second, the lamb belly is cut into pieces, strung in strings and cooked in a small pot on a charcoal fire. The third is the usual kebabs. The attraction of Taishan barbecue is that it is self-service, with enough weight and strong taste, eating meat in large pieces and drinking in large bowls, which is typical of Shandong Dahan. Although many health experts complain, this way of eating is expanding day by day. Every noon and afternoon, especially at night, people are moving and smoky, which is spectacular. Famous places must occupy seats in advance.
