As soon as spring comes, fresh Shan Ye dishes are popular on the dining table again, and Ningbo people prefer shepherd's purse. The light green shepherd's purse makes people have an appetite. Take out the rice cakes that have been soaked at home for several days and fry a plate of shredded shepherd's purse rice cakes, so that neighbors will knock on the door. "Shredded pork with shepherd's purse stir-fried rice cakes, and the stove king and bodhisattva reach out for them", from this old saying in Ningbo, we can know its unsurpassed flavor. The glutinous rice cake, accompanied by the unique fragrance of shepherd's purse, is fresh in the mouth and full of teeth. If you can't eat enough rice cakes, most people will soak them in water tanks to prevent them from hardening and cracking, or cut them into pieces, spread them on bamboo poles and dry them in the sun. After the rice cakes are cut into thin slices and dried, they are put into iron boxes in batches for later use. When necessary, some of them are taken out to soak in water to make the rice cake soup, but most of the time, they are still used to fry the rice cakes. Those sweet, crunchy smells soaked in the years are the happiness that can't be exchanged for status and money after many years.
