It is not a joke that some of the cake operators do not know orange red cakes, nor are they burying anyone. On that day, he exchanged new product research and development with the operator of the innovative Chongming cake function, and the chief farmer who became a senior official of the Jiaotong University Machinery and foreign company and later joined the entrepreneurship of his hometown Chongming, just couldn't imagine what kind of dim sum food orange red cake was. The volunteers on the side said that it was a small pastry with glutinous rice and orange peel.
Do not know the orange red cake, perhaps with the manufacturer is too thin to produce, perhaps blame the store for suspecting that the warranty trouble does not dare to distribute related, the market is indeed not everywhere, every family is sold, no wonder the unknown. However, the snacks that can be caged, colorful and exported on the rivers and lakes will always have its own unique heartwarming, favorite, and beloved places, and there will always be a living space for it.
Orange red cake is also like many dim sum snacks in Haipai, which is a style map, custom painting and landscape line in life. Shanghainese have a special love for orange and red cakes, because of the unswerving inheritance of traditional festival customs and customs, but also because of the enjoyment of leisure life. Every year during the Spring Festival, many families in Shanghai will be like buying milk candy hard candy, weighing a little orange red cake, and placing peanuts, melon seeds, etc. on the fruit plate as a snack to receive relatives and friends to visit the New Year. Usually, some families will also prepare orange and red cakes as snacks to eat. I remember the old man once said that children will have tooth decay when they eat more candy, and orange red cakes can be sweet and hungry. Looking back now, my teeth are still hard today, perhaps thanks to the orange cake.
Orange red cake making is different from other pastry forming. Once when I went to my grandmother's house, she said let's eat something good, so I saw the whole process of orange red cake from wet glutinous rice flour, mixed with kumquat sugar, kneading and blending, steaming and cutting, and sprinkling powder and rolling dough. The special feature of orange and red cake is that it is not like other pastries that have been formed before cooking, but is steamed, cut and needs another powder to help separate before forming. At that time, it was especially necessary to pick out the orange dot inlaid to eat, the steamed kumquat grain was very sweet and refreshing, and the glutinous ball wrapped in rice flour was not sticky and a little bit biting, thinking about grandma's taste is really difficult to find now.
At that time, orange and red cake was still one of the foods given by friends and family. Classmate Xiaoyan suffered from acute nephritis, the doctor told her not to eat salt, and when relatives visited her, they sent orange cakes. Perhaps the price of orange red cake is affordable, in the past, the cake between relatives and friends is the most common gift, 7 points of a whole egg cake and 8 points of a protein white cake, two, four, six, no special packaging box, can not take out, buy a box of at least octagonal or one yuan, and a package of orange red cake with edges and angles can be arbitrarily weighed two pounds, spend four or five corners is very disgusting, therefore, orange red cake was very popular that year.
Not long ago, I heard that there are orange and red cake shops in my hometown that have been passed down for many years, but they are not produced in 365 days, and they are supplied from time to time. May Day has the honor of a product, sure glutinous and delicious, sweet and tough, orange fragrance, the taste is very good. Just the insider care again and again, orange red cake belongs to the fresh snack, the best eating period in three or five days, otherwise, the best glutinous rice, the best workmanship is difficult to stop the glutinous powder from losing water quickly, hard mouth fast characteristics. Sure, it might be better to add some edibles, but they don't shop dry. In the inheritance, there are thousands of varieties of dim sum, hundreds of flavors, a wide variety of materials, and more and more simple production, but to be fine, precise, exquisite, wonderful, and the persistence of time and space is very important.
Chongming Fu Cake, for its functional innovation, won the second prize of the most popular market award in the commodity category of the 14th Shanghai Tourism Commodity Design Competition last year. We also look forward to the chief farmer being inspired by the orange and red cakes, so that the quality of the snacks is as clear as jade, the taste is exquisite, and the character is as sticky as gold.
Similarly, it is expected that orange and red cake will win more new Shanghainese consumption recognition in the process of regaining consumption recognition, so that orange red cake, like other dim sum, is not only an indispensable snack for the public, but also a food for the public to pursue a variety of tastes and a spiritual pursuit of complementarity. In the life of the citizens, it presents: the emotional, festive and leisure nature of food metaphor makes the Haipai dim sum culture prosperous, proud and prosperous. (Chen Yonghu)
