Peony swallow vegetables?! This Su Moqiu would actually know about peony swallow vegetables?! This peony swallow is not a native of Luoyang, and not many other people should know about it, why does this Su Moqiu actually know?!

Because of this peony swallow dish, Luoyang, Henan Province has a unique style of Han traditional dishes. It belongs to the Yu cuisine. The main ingredients are white radish, sea cucumber, squid, and chicken. The finished Luoyang Yancai only saw a peony flower as white as jade and dazzling in color, floating on the soup noodles, the vegetables were fragrant and fresh, and won the applause of the VIPs. "Luoyang Yancai", also known as "Fake Yancai" and "Peony Yancai", is a delicacy with local characteristics of western Henan.

It has always been listed as the Luoyang water seat ("Luoyang water seat" originated in the Tang Dynasty and has a history of more than 1,000 years) with 24 dishes, eight cold appetizers, four large dishes, eight Chinese dishes, and four pressing table dishes. It is said that the water mat has two meanings, one is that all hot dishes have soup; The second is that after all the dishes are eaten, they are served one after another, and they are constantly updated like flowing water.

Luoyang Yancai is an ironclad character, just like a woman dressed in the Tang Dynasty, as soon as she appeared, she attracted everyone's attention, a dazzling and delicate yellow peony flower floated on the soup noodles, the flowers, the vegetable fragrance, the soup was delicious, sour and spicy, smooth and palatable. The first dish of Luoyang water mat is "peony swallow vegetables", which was originally called "fake swallow vegetables". The so-called "fake bird's nest" is a dish made by pretending to be bird's nest. The source of this fraud also happened to Wu Zetian.

Luoyang Yan cuisine is a unique style of flavor in Luoyang. According to legend, when Wu Zetian lived in Luoyang, a vegetable field in Dongguan, grew a large radish of dozens of catties, the vegetable farmer thought it was a magical thing, dedicated to the empress Wu Zetian, the imperial chef cut it into shreds, mixed with powder and steamed, with umami soup, after the empress ate, its taste was unusually delicious, there was a great flavor of bird's nest, full of praise, gave the name "swallow vegetable".

After being introduced into the people, the days are long, everyone is called "Luoyang Yancai", which has been passed down to this day. In October 1973, Premier Zhou Enlai accompanied Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to visit Luoyang. Famous chefs Wang Changsheng and Li Daxiong carefully prepared swallow dishes to entertain the two prime ministers. The prime minister asked for two dishes in a row, and praised them together after eating. Because there are peony flowers carved in the dish, Premier Zhou humorously called it "peony swallow vegetable". Since then, Luoyang's "peony swallow vegetables" have been famous at home and abroad.

Legend Wu Zetian after the emperor, the world is also peaceful, the folk found a lot of "auspicious", such as what wheat is born three heads, the valley is long three ears and the like, Wu Zetian is of course full of joy and very interested in these peaceful events. In the autumn of one year, a large white radish grew in the field of Dongguan in Luoyang, which was three feet long, green on the top and white on the bottom, and this unusually large white radish was naturally presented to the empress as a mascot. Wu Zetian was very happy and ordered the palace chef to cook and taste the peculiar taste. What good dishes can radishes be, but the empress did not dare to disobey the order, and the imperial chef had no choice but to bite the bullet and carry out multiple processing of the radish, and mixed it with delicacies from the mountains and seas to cook it into soup.

After Wu Zetian tasted it, he felt that it was fragrant and refreshing, and it had the taste of bird's nest soup, so he gave it the name "fake bird's nest dish". Since then, Wu Zetian has added "fake swallow dishes" to his menu, which has become a dish that Wu Zetian often tastes. The empress's preference influenced a large number of nobles and bureaucrats, and everyone had to catch up with this fashion when setting up a banquet, taking "fake swallow vegetables" as the first dish of the banquet, even in the season when there were no radish, they also thought of using other vegetables to make "fake swallow vegetables", so as not to lose their value. What is good at the top will be very bad at the bottom. The preferences of the court and officialdom greatly affected the appetite of the people, and people took "fake swallow dishes" as the first dish on the table to start the whole banquet, whether it was weddings, funerals, or entertaining friends. Later, with the passage of time, Wu Zetian's name gradually disappeared, and people called it "Luoyang Yancai", or simply "Yancai".

"The national color is drunk in the morning, and the fragrance of the sky is the night of the clothes", Luoyang is a famous peony city, and people will be rich in magical legends, delicate and luxurious peony and swallow vegetables combined, so that it is more rich in distinctive Luoyang characteristics.
