Linhai has a long history and profound cultural heritage. The food culture here is very unique, and Ziyang Street is the most famous. Ziyang Street was a valuable street at that time, with many delicious foods. If you have the opportunity to go to Ziyang Street to eat delicious food, let’s find out more about it!

Egg White Lamb Tail

It looks like a "dough" but I never thought of it when I saw how it was made. It turns out that pure egg whites are used to make a foam, and then beaten until the egg whites form a solid "flour" shape. Then wrap it in bean paste and fry it in oil.

This kind of small cake is full of egg white flavor and has no greasy feeling. Served with bean paste, it melts in your mouth. It is a rare delicious experience. I often think that when we eat a delicious meal, it seems very simple, but I really can’t imagine how time-consuming and labor-intensive it is behind a small dumpling.

Yangmei Soup

There is a shop called Hutchison Private Kitchen on Ziyang Ancient Street near the seaside. Although the food is very private, the price is very affordable. This bayberry soup is made from bayberry, honey and egg white. The taste is sweet and sour, and the sweetness of honey can only be felt after hard work. Break the egg whites and garnish it, it looks beautiful and tastes good.

If you go to eat this dish in late June or early July, there should be bayberries in the market. Bayberry has only been on the market for 20 days, so eat it while it’s still hot.

Trash

Speaking of this kind of delicacy, it actually has a history. Baishuiyang Town is close to the sea and is an important town near the sea. People here have already arrived on the fourteenth day of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. On the fourteenth day of the first lunar month, every household will eat this rotten soup. The recipe of rotten soup is actually very simple. It is to mix vegetables, rice noodles and other ingredients that were available at the time to make a pot of "rotten soup".

Wheat cake

This is a kind of shortbread with pork filling. This cake looks different from ordinary cakes. It is an "open" cake and looks crispy at first glance. After asking about it, I found out that its preparation method is very special. When the pork has changed color and the cake is about to be cooked, make a small opening on the side, pour the egg liquid in, and then slowly fry it over low heat to make it more delicious. Crispy. After the wheat cake is made, the taste and color of the whole cake are very attractive. Even people who are not hungry want to take a few bites.

Ginger juice stewed eggs

People in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are particular about eating radish in winter and ginger in summer. When the summer solstice arrives, people in coastal areas begin to eat ginger. Stewed eggs with ginger sauce is a very seasonal delicacy on the streets of Linhai Ancient City. The way it is done is very special. Although there is ginger in it, the taste of ground ginger is not felt, and it is not spicy, but it has a bittersweet taste. If you look closely, you can see that in addition to ginger, there are also walnuts, brown sugar, and eggs.

Take a small spoon and put it in your mouth to eat. The brown sugar taste is light and the ginger taste is light. On the contrary, the flavor of walnut kernels is stronger and the flavor of eggs is more fragrant. The overall taste is soft, and paired with a piece of wheat cake, it is very satisfying.
