Shenzhen specialty
1, fresh oysters in Shajing
Shajing oyster, also known as oyster. Oysters can be found everywhere in Guangdong. Why can Shajing oysters become a specialty? The reason lies in the geographical location. Shajing is located at the mouth of the Pearl River, where salt and fresh water meet. The climate is mild throughout the year, the salinity of seawater is moderate and there are many plankton. This is a unique oyster culture area. Oysters produced in manholes are plump, milky, tender and beautiful, rich in protein and vitamins, and the iodine content is 200 times that of milk and egg yolk. It is famous for its tenderness and smoothness in Hong Kong, Macao and Southeast Asia.
Oyster meat contains a lot of glycogen. Glycogen is the energy source of human cell metabolism, and supplementing sugar can improve the heart and blood circulation function. Glycogen can also improve liver function, which can be directly absorbed and utilized by the body to reduce the burden on the pancreas. For diabetic patients, it is undoubtedly a good product with health care function.
In addition, the oyster products in Shajing mainly include fresh oysters, oyster sauce and oyster sauce. Fresh oysters can't be taken away for a long distance, because they won't be fresh if you take them back. But oyster sauce and oyster sauce can be taken away.
Oyster oil-fresh oysters are made into dried oysters, commonly known as oyster sauce. Oysters harvested from winter to around the lunar calendar every year, except some fresh oysters, are mostly made into raw oysters, which are characterized by large volume, firm abdomen and golden color. Oysters collected around February of the lunar calendar are mostly used to make mature oysters. First, pour the fresh oysters into a large pot and cook for more than ten minutes, then pick them up and put them in the electric oven. According to the requirements of different grades, it usually takes four or five hours to master the baking time, and it becomes oyster sauce after baking. Hakka is famous for making tofu, but it is estimated that not many people know that local Hakkas in Shenzhen must have a dish of oyster sauce during the New Year holiday.
Oyster oil-oyster soup obtained during the processing of cooked oysters is the main raw material for producing oyster oil. When cooking oysters, part of the juice of fresh oyster meat is dissolved in water. After 15 to 16 hours of slow cooking, the water is continuously evaporated, and finally the original oyster sauce with strong sauce flavor is left in the pot. According to traditional experience, only 1 can be cooked per 50 kg of fresh oysters. Two kilograms of oyster sauce. "Shajing oyster sauce" has become an important condiment in Cantonese cuisine system. The first is the fried series of Cantonese cuisine. More than 20% of frying oil should be mixed with manhole oyster sauce. Many Cantonese dishes or oyster sauce foods came into being, such as Chinese cabbage in oyster sauce, lettuce in oyster sauce and noodles in oyster sauce.
Buying Guide: Shajing is Shajing Town, Bao 'an District. You can only eat fresh oysters by yourself. After all, oysters have no feet to feed you. Oysters and oyster sauce are actually sold in vegetable markets and shopping malls, but there is no guarantee that they must be from manhole.
