A string of Sugar-Coated Berry in Lu Shenghua's hand has become a work, just like the splendor of the three colors in the Tang Dynasty, the solidification of ice sculptures in the north ... walnut kernels with moss rose, hawthorn beans stuffed with orange petals, and dried assorted osmanthus dates and peaches ... it is crisp, fragrant, crisp and sweet to bite. ...
The candied haws in Baoding are very famous in the province. In the Song and Ming Dynasties, a single red fruit dipped in sugar appeared, which was called "sugar pile". In the Qing Dynasty, for the convenience of eating, a string of Sugar-Coated Berry appeared. There are many varieties of sugar-coated haws, such as whole hawthorn, red bean paste hawthorn, mung bean paste hawthorn, yam and so on, which are very attractive and become a very popular street food. Mr. Lu Xun, a great writer, once wrote a famous sentence, "I gave my lover two pearls, and my lover gave me candied haws." Baoding's famous brands are "Luji Sugar Hulu" and "Sugar Hulu King". "Luji Sugar-Coated Berry" is the first registered trademark of the sales industry in Sugar-Coated Berry. His candied haws are big, fleshy and sweet, and won the first prize in the 72-line performance of 1990 CCTV economic half-hour column. It is said that "King Sugar-Coated Berry" has also been to the CCTV Spring Festival Gala. At about 5 pm on February 19, the author stayed in the "Tanghuluwang" store in front of Lianchi for less than half an hour, and then paid attention to it. One or two hundred people went to the stall, and when there were many people, there was a long queue, ranging from buying one or two to buying four or five. Three friends from Shijiazhuang took away sixteen or seven at once. At the crossroads on the east side of Baoding Department Store, we found the truck of "Luji Sugar Hulu". Behind the plaque inscribed by Mr. Hou, the 56-year-old boss greeted the customers with joy. The van in the old house is different from others. Since the opening of 1983, the van has been covered with the glorious history of "Lu Ji Tang Hu gourd", including the banner of "Another treasure in the ancient city" inscribed by the famous director and "Life is sweet, fruit is necessary" inscribed by the famous performance artist Ma. Old houses with candied haws and photos of many celebrities are embedded in the middle of Mo Bao, which is particularly eye-catching. The old house tells us that the production of sugar-coated haws is not complicated, but it also needs certain technology. The candied haws they make are very particular about "fruit selection". They want to pick out the small ones, the insects and the ones that don't look "normal", then wash them and remove the core and pedicle with a knife. Moreover, you can't cut hawthorn when you go to the core, which requires certain skills. The string of candied haws is also very particular, and the bamboo sticks or sticks used should be polished smooth, clean and uniform in thickness. When wearing hawthorn, the top one is the largest, and it decreases downwards in turn, so it is not "smooth" to watch and eat.
