1. Three treasures in Baoding: iron ball, flour paste, and youthful spring

1. Iron ball, also known as fitness ball, is smooth, bright and bright, with a hollow sphere, a soundboard and a steel spring, which can be held in your hand and run beautifully. For more than a hundred years, Liu Wei in Baoding wrote the folk song "There are three treasures in Baoding, and the iron ball noodle sauce is not old in spring", and the iron ball is listed as the first of the three treasures. Fitness ball (iron ball) is not only an entertainment tool, but also has the function of mass watching fitness. The appearance of the ball is bright and shiny, and its internal structure is complex. There are balls in the ball, and there are two soundboards, commonly known as "one male and one female". When you hold it in your hand, the sound is different, high and low, crisp and pleasant, which can not only adjust your muscles and mind, but also cultivate your temperament in the lingering and pleasant sound of iron balls. In the old days, bureaucrats and businessmen who traveled to and from Baoding Yuzhong in Beijing had to buy this as a gift for relatives and friends or dignitaries.

The current Baoding iron ball was developed through improvement and innovation following the ancient production technology of Ming and Qing Dynasties, with more refined technology and more scientific structure. Practice has proved that the fitness ball is not only a sports tool, but also has the function of conditioning the spirit and strengthening the bones and muscles, and has certain curative effects on some common diseases, such as blood pressure, coronary heart disease, neurasthenia, cervical spondylosis, scapulohumeral periarthritis, hemiplegia sequelae, finger dysfunction and so on.

2. Noodle sauce: Baoding Noodle sauce was first produced in the tenth year of Qing Emperor Kangxi, with a history of more than 3 years. It has a good quality and a long-standing reputation. It is an ideal cooking seasoning.

the key to huai mao pickles's superior quality lies in the flour paste. Baoding's sweet noodle sauce is brewed from high-quality flour. Thick and sweet, red and brown in color, put it upside down in a bowl. Traditional brewing is to make flour into dough, steam it, put it into bamboo plaque or wooden box for several days, then take it out of the pool and add light salt water to expose it to sunlight for half a year. Now, on the basis of traditional brewing technology, Aspergillus oryzae has been cultivated artificially by modern biotechnology to make koji, and solar energy has been used for low temperature and low salt fermentation. Huaimao sweet noodle sauce is sweet and nutritious, which can be eaten raw and used as a seasoning in cooking. One of the main reasons why Baoding's snacks are fragrant and popular in Wan Li is to add noodle sauce to the cooking and stewing.

It's not difficult to get huai mao pickles and flour paste, and the production process is not complicated, but none of the colleagues can produce products with similar taste and taste. Some people say that the secret lies in the water in an acre of spring in Baoding, while others say it is the unique secret recipe of Huai Mao. In fact, this time-honored brand can last forever, except for its unique secret recipe and technology, it also lies in the careful care and consistent development of the cultural connotation and historical accumulation of its own products by Huaimao people.

3. Spring is not old: it belongs to the same family as Xuelihong, but there are differences. As early as the Tang and Song Dynasties, planting was carried out. This kind of dish, after being salted, neither grows tendons nor firewood. It is a favorite side dish in winter and spring. There is another legend about the youth of spring. According to legend, during the reign of Qianlong in Qing Dynasty, a minister went south through Qingyuan County. The minister, who was tired of eating delicacies, suddenly wanted to eat something clean, so he served him a plate of pickled spring. The green and fresh spring is not old, as if it had just been pulled out of the ground. The minister put it in his mouth and tasted it. It was crisp and fragrant, and he repeatedly praised good food, good food! When he left, the minister specially asked someone to prepare Chunbulao for him, some of which were taken south and some were taken back to Beijing court. Since then, Baoding's reputation for being young in spring has spread far and wide. Although this is a folk legend, Baoding's youth is really unique.

Chunbu, a leafy vegetable planted in Baoding, belongs to mustard like pimple, but its fleshy root is small and its petiole is long and round. No matter how long it is preserved, Chunbu remains green, tender and crisp, and has a unique flavor, which is neither strong nor bitter. Chunbu is a rare pickled vegetable in winter and spring. 2.
