When it comes to the local specialties of my hometown, many kinds of seeds pop up in my head, including donkey meat, bowl holders, sea red fruits and so on. If you choose a representative from it, it is the sea red fruit, and simply introduce the sea red fruit that is a local specialty in our hometown.
Sea red fruit is produced in Hequ County, northwest of Jin, which is also my hometown. The sea red fruit tree, which has been in Hequ for more than 800 years, has been baptized by nature's law of survival, and the only preferred rare tree species that has been transformed from wild fruit to family fruit has remained extensively managed. Sea red fruit contains a variety of essential trace elements, including calcium 66.59mg/g, iron 2.16mg/g, zinc 0.54mg/g, calcium content ranks first in fruits, with the title of "calcium king in fruit".
When the sea red fruit is not yet ripe, its color is green, and when it is ripe, the color of the fruit will change from green to red. Sea red fruit trees generally grow in some ditches, the growth environment is relatively harsh, stocking growth, environmental adaptability is very strong, sometimes a sea red fruit seed, thrown in a ravine, in a few years, if you pay attention, it may grow in the place where you still have seeds.
Sea red fruit can also be used to make other delicacies, such as petals, fruit peels, etc. The production of fruit petals is also simple to make is to cut the ripe sea red fruit in half, cut the fruit, string it up with a thin line, put it in the sun, and evaporate the water of the fruit. It can be stored for a long time. You can take it out and eat it at any time. The taste is sweet and sour, the stomach is digestible, and the taste is good. Guodan peel is to boil the fruit into a paste, and then spread on a thin layer of iron, exposed to the sun, the water evaporated and dried, you get the guodan peel, the taste is relatively soft.
You can also make drinks, when it comes to drinks made of sea red fruit, the first thing that locals can think of is sea red honey, the taste of the drink is sour and sweet, different from the carbonated drinks on the market, the taste of this thing, it is difficult to describe clearly, to taste it yourself to experience, to my memory, sea red honey has two generations of packaging, a generation of classic is with glass bottles, one is a can. The glass bottle should belong to the classic in memory, and it is also what most people have drunk. The cans are out in recent years, probably to cater to the market, and the packaging looks more festive and atmospheric. After the introduction of the souvenirs of my hometown, welcome to my hometown as a guest, what are the souvenirs in your hometown?
