What are the specialties in Guangzhou? Fish balls, mosquitoes, fish and stories.
Yuzhu is a reef in Huangpu Pearl River, which is composed of Cretaceous red sandstone and conglomerate and has the same properties as Hai Yin stone and Haizhu stone. In the Qing dynasty, this stone was in the Pearl River, surrounded by water, and it appeared and disappeared with the rise and fall of water. Because it is washed by the waves day and night, it is as round as a pearl, commonly known as Yuzhushi, or simply Yuzhu. What are the famous specialties in Guangzhou? There is a mosquito-eating fish growing in the Pearl River. It is said that when mosquito-eating fish saw this big, white and round fish bead stone, they thought it was also an aquatic product. They suddenly fell in love with it and circled around it day and night, hoping to win the heart of the fish bead. In this way, the mosquito-eating fish in this area always swims around the Yuzhu stone, so its meat quality is particularly delicate and delicious. Once, a foreigner came to Huangpu and was very surprised and full of praise after eating fish balls. After he came back, he made a lot of publicity, so fish balls became famous and became a famous dish in Huangpu. It is said that there are two snail shells in the west of Boluo Temple, one in the east of Shapu Village on the north bank of the Pearl River and the other in Panyu on the south bank of the Pearl River. The two mountains face each other across the river. The northern shore is the male snail shell, and the southern shore is the female snail shell. Legend has it that if snails are fierce, they need to bridge the gap between them through long lice and flirt with nuts on the south bank. At this time, nearby villagers will have bad behaviors such as girls getting pregnant before marriage and widows being unfaithful. Therefore, at the end of each year, when the wind and grass turn yellow, villagers near Nut Mountain will go to Luogong Mountain to put Yamakaji there and burn all the vegetation on Luogong Mountain, so that it will not be fierce in the coming year. At the same time, they will catch lice in Shapu River and cook them so that they can't report to Luogong Nut. This dish, Shapuhe Dragon House, comes from this. It is said that people who have eaten this dish are particularly fierce, and many people have tasted it. What are the local specialties in Guangzhou? It is said that Li Hongzhang went to Guangdong to inspect during Guangxu period and suddenly fell ill on the way. He spent a lot of money to invite famous doctors from all over Guangzhou, but he didn't find the cause. I don't want to rely on several secret recipes newly built by Mai Xinjian in Nanwan Village to finally cure the minister. Li Hongzhang is extremely grateful to this rescuer. After returning to Beijing, I learned that Empress Dowager Cixi also suffered from a strange disease, so I quickly invited Dr. Mai to Beijing. In just one month, Cixi's strange disease was cured. Cixi asked for a big reward when she was happy, but Mai Xinjian declined politely. At that time, the Maigong Temple in the beginning had been completed. Mai Xinjian only asked Cixi to give a plaque, and asked Li Hongzhang to write the words "Maigong Temple at the beginning". It is said that in the prescription that Mai Xinjian used to treat Empress Dowager Cixi, there is a drug guide made of grilled fish produced in Nanwan Village. Therefore, the folk grilled fish in Nanwan is not only delicious, but also has the effect of dietotherapy!
