Ancient town food

Pickled cauliflower with honey bee

Whenever the Spring Festival is approaching, the farmers in Changning always invite relatives and friends: "come to my house and have a little pickle." What they call "pickle" is the abbreviation of local special flavor "cauliflower pickle", and it is also the pronoun of host's inviting "pig guest".

In winter and spring, almost every household in Changning pickles cauliflower, because in this season, large fields are full of golden "small rape flowers". This kind of half wild plant does not need to be sown artificially. It grows and blooms by itself and has strong vitality. Year after year, it provides rich raw materials for tea farmers to pickle cauliflower. Cauliflower pickles can be divided into "Water Pickles" and "cured pickles" due to different production methods. The former is a "short-term product", which can be eaten after three or four days of pickling; the latter is a "long-term product", which can be stored for a long time. Because its raw material is flowers in full bloom, it has its own natural fragrance, which is contained in the sweet and sour taste, and its flavor is very unique.

There are many ways to eat cauliflower pickles, and the most delicious one is "cauliflower pickles mixed with bees". Fengzai is also the "mountain treasure" of tea town. No matter the domestic bee (bee), the wild bee (grass bee, gourd bee, etc.), as long as its pupa is white and tender, it is the top grade. Before eating, scald with boiling water to remove the heterogeneity, then add the ingredients such as wuhing, chili oil and zanthoxylum oil, and mix in Cauliflower pickles to enjoy. The plump, tender and sweet flavor of bees and the sweet and sour flavor of pickles are really attractive. Today, the authentic rural wild vegetables have become a famous food with local flavor. They are frequently served at the banquets of local hotels and restaurants, and are highly praised by all kinds of diners.

Ancient town shopping

Tengxuan

Xuan paper has always been the favorite of calligraphers and painters. As the name suggests, Xuan paper is of course the "honorary product" of Xuancheng, Anhui Province. However, in terms of the color sense, texture, water absorption and other inherent qualities of the products, Tengchong Xuan paper is also a good paper for painting and calligraphy, and is highly valued by the painting and calligraphy circles. At the end of 1941, when master Xu Beihong returned from Southeast Asia by way of Tengchong, he bought three packs of tengxuan and praised a painter. Tengxuan not only had the advantages of touxuan (Xuancheng paper), but also had an advantage that touxuan didn't have: no one could uncover it secretly after painting, so he thought that it was a good choice to use tengxuan for painting.

Tengxuan was first produced in the Qing Dynasty. It was once known as "Guanyintang white paper" because it was produced in Guanyintang in the northwest suburb of the city. In the past, there was a merchant surnamed Yu who specialized in Southeast Asia, so it was also called "Yu Xuan". After the founding of the people's Republic of China, the production cooperatives, with the manual workshops that used to produce "Guanyintang large white paper" as the backbone, have the courage to innovate on the basis of traditional technology, and have developed a new generation of products by using the unique Broussonetia papyrifera (Daphne odora) bark and high stalk white rice straw, hemp, bamboo and other raw materials in Gaoligong Mountain area. After being put into the market, the quality, scale and sales have taken a big step forward. In 1980, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce officially approved the naming of the painting and calligraphy paper produced by Tengchong Xuan paper factory as "snowflake" Xuan paper, which was sold all over the country and overseas.
