With the Dragon Boat Festival approaching, the members of the two committees of Guangming Village, Langxia Town, Jinshan District, focused on the industrial advantages of Langxia "Mushroom Town", skillfully combined the mushroom characteristics with the traditional handmade zongzi in the village, and launched a unique black chicken fir meat dumpling. As soon as this zongzi was launched, it made everyone's eyes shine and won unanimous praise from consumers.
The special feature of black chicken fir meat dumplings lies in their special ingredient combination. In addition to the traditional pork belly, mushrooms grown under the porch are also added to the filling, the most eye-catching of which is the black-skinned chicken fir mushroom. This rare fungus is mostly produced in the Yunnan-Guizhou-Sichuan region, which not only has high edible value, but also is one of the traditional medicinal treasures in China. It is rich in antioxidants that help promote digestion, regulate blood sugar, boost immunity, and has twice the protein content of beef, making it suitable for people of all ages.
At present, the black-skinned chicken fir fungus is only cultivated on a large scale under the Jinshan Corridor in Shanghai. Combined with the advantages of "mushroom town" in Langxia, Guangming Village actively explores the industry of black-skinned chicken fir fungus, and the addition of high-end mushrooms further enriches the industrial system of "mushroom town", which has a positive effect on the growth of the village collective economy and the prosperity of the villagers. In November last year, the black-skinned chicken fir mushroom was highly praised by the World Federation of Chefs Societies (WACS) at that time, and it shined at the 6th CIIE.
In addition to the precious black chicken fir mushroom, the other materials of the black chicken fir meat dumplings are also exquisite. Each zongzi is made of local glutinous rice and fresh pork belly, and simmered in an earthen oven for more than 5 hours, so that the zongzi is not only delicious to eat, but also has a hint of hometown taste. The Zongzi leaves are made of bamboo leaves with medicinal value, and the materials used to bind the Zongzi are local straw that has been fully immersed, and the Zongzi wrapped with these materials is more mellow and delicious in taste, with a unique rice fragrance.
Jin Tao, the first secretary of Guangming Village, said, "Through the launch of the special product of black chicken fir meat dumplings, we can not only inherit and carry forward the traditional culture, but also allow the villagers to get rich and increase their income at their doorstep, which is a win-win project.
