1, when it comes to eating crabs, the first thing that comes to mind is the hairy crabs of Yangcheng Lake, tender and juicy meat, sweet and delicate taste, coupled with the pleasant scenery of Yangcheng Lake, can be considered a wonderful thing on earth. In Dream of the Red Chamber, it is written: "Holding the chela is more like the coolness of gui yin, splashing vinegar and beating ginger as if crazy." Every year in October, many tourists from all over the world will specifically come to Suzhou Yangcheng Lake to taste hairy crabs.
2, Mr. Lu Xun said: the first person to eat crabs is a brave person! It is said that the first person to eat crabs is the Bacheng people's family - Baxue. Legend has it that thousands of years ago, the rivers and lakes, there is a double-cheeked, eight-legged, viciously shaped beetles. It not only ate rice, but also hurt people with its chelae, so it was called "the insect that pinches people". Later, when Dayu came to Jiangnan to control the water, he sent a strong man named Ba Xie to supervise the work, but the infestation of the beetle seriously hindered the project. Ba Xie came up with a method, dug a ditch around the city and filled the ditch with boiling water. The bugs came over and fell into the ditch and were scalded to death. The scalded insects were reddish in color and emitted an attractive aroma. The PLO curiously broke open the shell and smelled the aroma. Then boldly bite a bite, who knows the flavor of fresh through, more delicious than anything, so the fear of pests became a household name of food. In order to be grateful to PLA who dared to be the first in the world, they added the word "insect" under the word "solve" and called the insect "crab", which means PLA conquered the insect and was the first crab eater in the world. Bacheng was named in honor of Ba Xie. Now, there is still a Ba Wang Temple on the shore of Yangcheng Lake in Ba Cheng, and the statue of Ba Wang is erected.
