Basic Introduction to Fangshan Fried Evil

"Evil" often means bad, vicious, and disgusted attitude towards people and things in Chinese dictionaries. However, the 'evil' here today is not the evil of sin, but a kind of flavor snack, which is the most typical characteristic cuisine in the Lvliang area of Shanxi province. The 'evil' method is to steam potatoes, peel them, and squeeze them into thin strips using a river fishing bed (a unique noodle making tool in Shanxi) for easy mixing with mashed potatoes. Add potato starch or a small amount of steamed carrot puree, knead all the ingredients by hand, roll them into a thick cake shape, steam them in a pot, let them cool, and they will become semi transparent. If carrot puree is added, it will be semi transparent with scattered red dots, which looks really nice

How did the history of Fangshan's stir frying evil come about

The Origin Story of Evil in Fangshan: Planting yam eggs in Fangshan has a long history. According to legend, during the prosperous period of Kangxi and Qianlong in the early Qing Dynasty, the people of Yongning also lived a life of abundant clothing and food. There was an old farmer in a mountainous area who had grown yam eggs all his life and had eaten them all his life. He had eaten everything cooked, steamed, and cooked, whether it was because he was tired of it or because he had developed feelings for yam eggs. He planned to use a new method to eat yam eggs. He first peeled off the yam, ground it into a paste with his own special eraser, wrapped it in a cloth, twisted the water, and then spread it on a steamer to steam and eat. However, the taste and flavor were not satisfactory. After countless experiments, he did not know how many times he tasted it. He found the water twisted off the yam paste. It always precipitated white powder, and he thought that since it came from yam, it must be the essence of yam

In this way, the invention of this food by the old farmer of Fangshan was dubbed "evil" by people
