Appreciation of the United States , Dragon Boat Festival| Duck Eggs of the Dragon Boat Festival Author: Wang Zengqi Recitation: Wang Hui

In the Dragon Boat Festival in my hometown, many customs are the same as in other places. Tie a hundred ropes. The five-colored silk thread is twisted into a small rope and tied to the wrist. The silk thread is discolored and stained when washing the face

When the water is gone, the wrist is printed with a red and a green. Make incense horns. The silks were wrapped into small rice dumplings, filled with incense noodles, strung one by one, and hung on the hook. Paste five poisons. The red paper is cut into five poisons and pasted on the threshold. Stickers. This charm was sent from the City God Temple. The old Taoist priest of the City God Temple is still my name Gan Dad, who sends small Taoists to send charms every year before the Dragon Boat Festival, and there are two small paper fans. The charm was sent and pasted on the lintel of the hall. A foot long yellow and blue strip of paper, on which some inexplicable Dao dao is drawn with a Zhu pen, can this ward off evil spirits? Drink male yellow wine. Draw a king character on the child's forehead with wine and male yellow, which is found in many places. There is a custom that nowhere else: yellow smoke. Yellow smoke is a cannon battle as large as the northern Ma Leizi, but it is not filled with gunpowder, but with male yellow. After lighting it, it did not make a sound, but a yellow smoke came out, which could be smoked for a while. He threw the lit yellow cigarette under the cupboard and said that he could smoke five poisons. Children lit yellow smoke and often wrote tiger characters on the wall of the board with one end of it. Writing yellow smoke tiger character strokes can not be broken, so our children there will write cursive "a tiger". There is also a custom that the lunch of the Dragon Boat Festival should eat "twelve reds", that is, twelve red dishes. I only remember fried red amaranth, fried shrimp in oil, salted duck eggs, and the rest can't be remembered, I can't count. Maybe the twelve reds are just a name, not necessarily twelve. However, the lunch dishes are all red, which I am not mistaken, and there must be amaranth, shrimp, and duck eggs. These three things, in my hometown, are not expensive, and most people can afford to eat.

My hometown is a water town. Out of the duck. The Gaoyou cannabis duck is a famous duck species. There are many ducks, and there are many duck eggs. Gaoyou people are also good at pickling duck eggs. Gaoyou salted duck eggs became famous. I am in southern Jiangsu and Zhejiang, whenever someone asks me about my place of origin, after answering, the other party will be awe-inspiring: "Oh! You guys have salted duck eggs out there! "Pickled duck eggs are also sold in shops selling pickled wax, and they must be specially marked with a note: "Gaoyou salted eggs." Gaoyou also produced double yellow duck eggs. Duck eggs elsewhere also occasionally have double yellow, but they are not as much as Gaoyou and can be exported in batches. There is nothing special about the taste of double yellow duck eggs. It's not a duck egg yet! Just after cutting, the two round yellows inside are amazing. I am not very happy that foreigners praise gaoyou duck eggs, as if we have duck eggs in our poor place! However, Gaoyou's salted duck eggs are indeed good, I have walked a lot of places, and there are many duck eggs eaten, but they cannot be compared with those in my hometown! Once the sea was shipwrecked as water, and the salty duck eggs in other places, I really couldn't look at it. Yuan Ming's "Suiyuan Menu • Small Menu" has a "pickled egg" article. Yuan Zicai, this person I don't like, his "Food List" good dishes of the practice is heard, he himself will not cook. However, after reading the article "Pickled Eggs", I felt very kind, and "with honor". The text is not long, and the record is as follows:

Pickled eggs are better than Gaoyou, the color is fine and oily, and Gao Wenduangong likes to eat it the most. During the meal, first clip to honor the guests, put on the plate. It is always advisable to cut open the shell, and use both yellow and white; do not save yellow to white, so that the taste is incomplete and the oil is scattered.

Gaoyou salted eggs are characterized by their fine quality and oily quality. The protein is soft and tender, not like the hair shafts and powders elsewhere, and the entrance is like chewing lime. The amount of oil is especially unattractive. The way to eat duck eggs, as Yuan Zicai said, with the shell cut open, is a way, that is the way to entertain guests during the banquet. Usually eaten, it is usually eaten by knocking out the "empty head" and digging with chopsticks. As soon as the chopsticks head went down, the red oil came out. The yolk of Gaoyou salted egg is red. There is a famous dish in northern Jiangsu called "cinnabar tofu", which is tofu fried with Gaoyou duck egg yolk. The salted duck egg I ate in Beijing, the yolk is light yellow, what is this salted duck egg!

During the Dragon Boat Festival, our children there hang "duck egg strings". On the first day, my aunt or sister tied the knot with colored silk threads. In the early morning of the Dragon Boat Festival, the duck eggs are cooked, and the children themselves choose one, what is there to pick from the duck eggs? Yes! One should pick a light green shell. Duck eggshells are available in both white and pale blue. Second, pick a good shape. Don't say that duck eggs are all the same, but looking closely is different. Some look stupid, some are handsome. Pick it up, put it in a loop, and hang it on the buttons of the placket. What's so nice about that? However, it is a beloved ornament of a child. The duck egg was hung for more than half a day, and when the child was happy, he took out the duck egg in the egg and ate it. The duck eggs of the Dragon Boat Festival, newly pickled, only a little salty taste, can also be eaten with white mouth.

Children eat duck eggs very carefully. Except for knocking out the empty head, do not break the eggshell. The egg yolk protein was eaten, the duck eggshell was washed with water, and the fireflies were caught at night, and they were packed in the eggshell, and the empty place was pasted with a thin layer. Fireflies flash in the duck eggshell, very beautiful!

When I was a child reading the story of the sac fluorescent snow, I felt that che Yin of the Eastern Jin Dynasty used the training sac to hold dozens of fireflies, and after reading the book, it was better to use duck egg shells to pack fireflies. But is it okay to read a book illuminated by fireflies and read it overnight until dawn? Che Yin read the handwritten scroll, the characters are large, if you read the current new number five, it is probably not OK.
