Introduction to Hefeng Pearl Powder

Yudu Hefeng Pearl Powder is a unique product of Yudu, mainly produced in towns such as Hefeng, made from rice. It is a must-have item for people during festivals and holidays. It is sweet and delicious, and no one knows it

It is said that there was a millionaire Liu Liben in Hefeng Village, capital of a certain dynasty. He wanted to avoid paying the long-term worker one year's wages. He announced to the long-term worker that he would send him the New Year this year, not fish, chicken and duck, but rice Dim sum. He also asked that the grains should be round and the size should be the same. He could not be fried, steamed in a steamer, or fried. On December 15, he would give him a try. If he said yes, he would be paid. If he said no, he would be compensated. Lao Huage, the long-term worker, went home and told his wife Qiao Gu about this matter. Qiao Gu was inspired by carp eggs and made something similar to fish eggs from rice, adding fish soup, oil, salt, and spices. On December 15th, Liu Liben ate it and agreed! Okay! And she paid the wages to the chief worker in full. Later, Qiao Gu constantly supplemented the processing procedures, and because each one shone like a pearl, people gave it a beautiful name called pearl powder

The production method of Hefeng pearl powder

Firstly, soak high-quality evening rice for 12 hours, grind it into a slurry, the finer the slurry, use a white cloth to pad it on the grass ash, filter the slurry, wait for the water to dry, air dry the powder blocks, and sieve them. The person holding the bran sieve keeps rotating, and the powder gradually increases like a snowball inside the sieve. When it reaches the size of mung beans, it is poured into another rice sieve and sieved. The particles left on the rice sieve are the initial pearl powder. Then pour it onto a white cloth, gently brush it with goose feathers to dry, and the pearl powder is done

Tasting and Eating Methods of Hefeng Pearl Powder

When eating, first boil the water (this is the most important part), slowly sprinkle the pearl powder in, and stir with chopsticks. If the beads sink to the bottom of the pot, they can be scooped into another cold water basin and soaked in water (be sure to soak in cold water). Wait for the beads to expand into a semi transparent shape, and each one is crystal clear like a pearl, hence the name. Then remove it and mix it with soup such as chicken, duck, fish, and meat. You can add some star anise and chopped green onions (if you like spicy food, you can add some soy sauce and chili peppers)
