Taiping swallow

Introduction:

"Meat swallow is a famous traditional food in Fuzhou, which has a history of hundreds of years. According to legend, as early as the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, there was a retired censor in Pucheng County, Fujian Province. He lived in the mountainous area and ate too much mountain treasures, so he felt that he was just plain. So, his chef took the lean meat of pig leg, beat it into meat paste with wooden stick, mixed with a certain amount of sweet potato powder, rolled it into paper thin pieces, cut it into three inch square pieces, wrapped it with meat stuffing, made it into flat food, cooked and served with soup. When the censor ate it in his mouth, he only felt that it was smooth, tender and crisp. He even called "Da Miao" and asked what kind of snack it was. The Cook said "flat meat swallow" because it was like a flying swallow. In Fuzhou dialect, duck eggs are homonymous with "yaluan" and "Binglang", which means "Taiping" and "Taiping swallow". "Taipingyan" is a famous local snack in Fuzhou, and also a famous festive dish in Fuzhou Customs. People in Fuzhou must eat "Taiping swallow" when they celebrate New Year's holidays, weddings and funerals, relatives and friends get together. That is to say, they are lucky for "Taiping" and "Ping'an". Therefore, "no swallow is a feast, no swallow is an adult". Today, I replaced duck eggs with quail eggs and added fresh shrimp to make this soup more nutritious and delicious. "
