Seeing this theme reminds me of my hometown snack "horseshoe crab".

In fact, when I was in primary school, I seldom ate out. My mother does everything. I never ate it in primary school.

I first learned about this snack in the ideological and moral class in primary school. The teacher told us the story of this snack in order to cheer us up.

This is a folk story about filial piety.

A long time ago, there was a poor family. The old mother at home is old, and it is inconvenient to chew food when she is old. When my old mother was ill and had no food to eat, she saw that she was getting thinner and thinner.

The family is in a hurry. At this time, horseshoe crab is said to be a kind of nutritious food, which is very beneficial to sick people.

The old man's daughter-in-law felt that she had finally found hope and went to the river to look for the animal everywhere.

After I found the horseshoe crab, I removed the shell and cooked the meat, but the old man still couldn't eat it.

The daughter-in-law thought for a long time, and finally came up with an idea, that is, boil the soup of horseshoe crab, mash the meat, add sweet potato powder and rice slurry, then put it in a bowl and steam it in a steamer.

Steamed bread is thick, soft and non-sticky. You can eat it without chewing too much, and it is especially delicious, and it smells like meat.

Everything comes to him who waits, and the old man is finally full and his body is slowly recovering.

The old man asked his daughter-in-law, "What's so embarrassing about this?" Daughter-in-law because the pot was mixed with limulus juice, she replied, "limulus." So the name of horseshoe crab has been there since then.

When did you start to feel embarrassed? No investigation. According to today's 80-and 90-year-old people, they were embarrassed when they were young. It can be seen that horseshoe crab is one of the snacks with a long history in Chaoyang.

"Chaoyang County Records" contains: "Chaoshan horseshoe crab is a fine product among pink clams, and it was also used as a guest during the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. Donnell has it. "

Later, in junior high school, my mother sometimes bought us some snacks from outside.

I remember eating horseshoe crab cakes for the first time. The smooth and golden appearance looks like a heart-shaped mold with soy sauce on it. It's crisp to eat in one bite, and then chew it. There are thick cakes inside, as well as the fragrance of mushrooms, shrimp, quail eggs, meat foam and other foods. A horseshoe crab cake, tender outside and tender inside, super delicious.

Later, I learned that there is no horseshoe crab in the horseshoe crab we are eating now. Now horseshoe crabs have been used to protect animals, and the meat of horseshoe crabs has been replaced by improved horseshoe crabs.

Nowadays, horseshoe crab cakes are mainly prepared by mixing rice paste and sweet potato powder in proportion, pouring them into a special heart-shaped pottery bowl, adding mushrooms, dried shrimps, quail eggs and minced meat, and then steaming them in a steamer.

After cooling, take the steamed horseshoe crab out of the bowl, then pour the oil into the pot, put the steamed horseshoe crab in the oil, slowly fry until the surface is slightly burnt, and then add some soy sauce and pepper. It is really delicious! !

Now every time I go back, I always go to eat a crab cake that is tender outside and tender inside, and taste the taste of my hometown.

The taste of hometown is also the taste of missing hometown.
