As a foodie, not being able to eat good food is a heart-wrenching thing, especially those that are obviously delicious, but for many reasons can not eat. These reasons include economic reasons, but also technical reasons, technical reasons should be that the technology to make this food has been lost, it is difficult to eat again, this is the most heart-wrenching. However, many delicious snacks are indeed disappearing, and suddenly I feel so sore that I have never eaten many of them.
Goldfish cake
This is a kind of Tianjin cuisine, a delicious taste that sounds like the name, which is very imaginative, and the production method is very complicated. The outer skin is a thin layer of white noodles, and the heart is the stick surface, that is, the coarse grain wrapped in a thin grain coat. Then put it into a special kind of "hot stove" to burn. After baking, the cake is broken, and the yellow stick noodles in the heart of the cake are like the roe in the belly of the fish, so it is called "goldfish cake", and some people take the harmonic pronunciation called "gold wrapped silver cake", which becomes the "gold and silver cake" of the good color head. The reason for the disappearance is that in the current main food of refined rice and white noodles, people rarely eat "thick and thin collocation", and this gold and silver cake has gradually become a half-cut antique. It seems that people still eat finely.
Nine layers of kway teow
It seems to be another delicacy that seems to be layered on several layers, but in fact it is, just like a mille-feuille. A local snack in Taiwan, as the name suggests, is a layer of cold rice, and the production process is complicated. Delicious nine-layer rice is full of flavor, soft with Q, slightly sweet taste, eat more than not greasy, especially to drizzle a little special "oil onion", is the most flavorful. The serious nine-layered kway teow should be made of nine layers, and the layers should be clear, symbolizing the meaning of the best. The reason for the disappearance is also very simple: the production is too troublesome, and now the nine-layer kway is rarely sold, only in a few small towns, most of which are only seven layers, each layer of color is not obvious enough, the layers are not clear enough, and it has lost its original unique flavor.
Stray eggs
This food is a bit heavy, and it seems to be also ..... It's hard to swallow. But it is very popular in Fuzhou, fuzhou dialect so-called stray grasshoppers, Guangdong Guangzhou area called grass worms, mostly grow in the low soil of the river, every year around the Mid-Autumn Festival is the breeding season of stray snails, they will drill out of the soil in the middle of the night, into the river. Because it is rich in high protein, delicious in the mouth, and the amount is small and high, it is called "Cordyceps sinensis in the Oolong River" by local fishermen. Drifting eggs is the most classic method, after the catch of the stray oysters and egg whites mixed well, put into the oil pot, baked with a warm fire, egg aroma with the smell of stray snails, become Fujian's well-known national special snacks..... Sounds like it really is.... It can't increase the appetite, but it still has to disappear, the reason: in the past two years, with the reduction of the production of stray oysters, this delicacy has gradually disappeared.
Stewed bear paws
Although there is bear paw in the name, this dish is made of pork, and the name also reflects the bear paw. It is rumored that it was once a dish that Song Meiling liked very much. This dish comes from Li Fuquan's "Shuangfengyuan" restaurant on Danfeng Street in Nanjing, which is famous for creating a series of black foods, which gradually became "official meals" because senior officials often came to order meals. Song Meiling's favorite dish of "stewed bear paws" is actually marinated into black pig's feet, but the stewed soup is like milk, one white and one black. This black food is all made of a local longevity tree sap, longevity sap is slightly yellow, fragrant without any bad smell, and contains a lot of melanin, can be blind, kidney, anti-cancer, but also has a unique flavor. Reason for the disappearance: Unknown, anyway, we should not have seen this kind of food much lately. It is estimated that it should also be a technical reason.
Gangnam Hundred Flowers Chicken
Jiangnan hundred flowers chicken, or look at the explanation, and the protagonist of this dish is not chicken, but also has nothing to do with hundreds of flowers, to put it bluntly, it is actually: chicken skin stuffed shrimp glue. Lay the skin of the whole chicken flat on the cutting board and poke a few small holes with the tip of the knife so that the skin does not shrink after steaming. The shrimp minced meat, crab meat and summer only the night flowers mix well, spread on the inner skin of the chicken and finally use egg white to smooth the shrimp and crab meat stuffed on the skin of the chicken, take the steamer basket steamed with high heat to brew the chicken skin, and plate it with the famous flowers of Jiangnan night incense or white chrysanthemum flowers, so it is called "Hundred Flowers Chicken". Reason for disappearance: Unknown, should be classified as a technical means.
Jujube water
"A slow down on the street platform, a bowl of jujube water" In the 1950s and 1960s, if anyone on the streets of Lanzhou was tired and thirsty, they were looking forward to drinking a bowl of "jujube water" immediately. Authentic "jujube water" first requires dates to be superior, complete, clean and insect-free, then roasted, and then boiled in the number one casserole pot in Agan Town, and absolutely not in an iron pot or aluminum pot. Sometimes there is less jujube water, and some people will fill it with some cool water, and later this behavior was used by Lanzhou people to describe those tricks that pretended to be real and tricked people, Lanzhou dialect is called "face to face water", which is also the origin of the allusion of "selling jujube water". Reason for disappearance: With the improvement of living conditions, "jujube water" has become a thought that cannot be erased in the minds of the elderly.
