Basic Introduction of Xichu Tribute Vegetable

Xichu Tribute Vegetable, abbreviated as Tribute Vegetable, also known as Tai Gan, is a precious specialty of Jieyang. Its cultivation history dates back to the Qin Dynasty and has lasted for more than 2200 years. According to legend, in the late Qin Dynasty, Zhang Liang attempted to assassinate the King of Qin but failed. He went into hiding in Xiapi (now east of Xuzhou), ate wild vegetables, and read the "Su Shu". Among them, the moss and dried vegetables were crisp and delicious, refreshing and pleasant to the stomach. They were planted on the ground, stored in summer and winter, and consumed year-round. Liu Bang raised an army, and Zhang Liang accompanied Liu Bang with dried moss and vegetables in Xiapi. After Liu Bang ate, his mind suddenly enlightened. Zhang Liang read and understood the "Art of War" of Taigong one by one, and his words were in perfect harmony. He praised Zhang Liang for his outstanding talents, dried moss and divine vegetables, and the spiritual land of Xiapi! From then on, the value of dried moss doubled. In 205 BC, Xiang Yu, the ruler of Western Chu, established his capital in Pengcheng (now Xuzhou) and ordered palace chefs to cook moss to serve him. After each meal, Xiang Yu's divine power was unleashed, and he ordered the people to plant it extensively for the exclusive consumption of the palace. Thus, Western Chu palace cuisine was named after him. During the Ming and Qing dynasties, it was known as "Xingyuan Bulk" and was marketed in Japan, Southeast Asia, and other regions
