Hecai

Nantong people celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival, in addition to eating zongzi, fermented grains, roasted garlic heads, etc., there are also some holiday specialties in lunch dishes. There is often a bowl of colorful dishes on the dining table of Nantong people, which is called "He Cai" (and the dialect "He"). Although this dish is not a delicacy, it is not qualified for the menu, but it has a local flavor in Nantong. The materials used to make "He Cai" are very common: vermicelli (there is a light green one), egg skin, leek, shredded lean meat and mung bean sprouts, generally five kinds. Whether it represents the Dragon Boat Festival (5) or symbolizes the "Five Poisons" is left to textual research. Let's say that these five kinds of dishes don't become harmony dishes when they are fried together. Except that the egg skin should be spread in advance, the rest should be treated separately and fried in the same pot. And the heat should be well controlled, the shredded pork should be fried tender, and the mung bean sprouts should not be fried flat. Finally, get together and fry it. If you save trouble and stir-fry all kinds of materials, it will not be delicious. Therefore, from this point of view, it is also quite laborious to do. "Harmony food" can be said to be jambalaya, with a combination of meat and vegetables, which is refreshing and nutritious. The person who invented this dish knows nutrition.
