Huaiyang day lily

Huaiyang day lily has been a tribute to the court as early as the Han Dynasty and has been famous for thousands of years. Su Shi, a great writer in the Northern Song Dynasty, was also a famous foodie. When he passed through Chenzhou (today's Huaiyang), he tasted the day lily here, and immediately wrote the eternal saying "There is no precious jade in the farmhouse, and the yellow flowers everywhere are golden hairpins".

Gushi radish

It is unclear when Gushi began to grow radishes. I only know that they began to be eaten as tributes to the emperor in the Ming and Qing dynasties. The green head occupies more than 2/3 of the cylindrical appearance. It is crisp and tender in the mouth but has no residue. The taste is no different from eating fruit. Gushi radish is a typical fruit-type radish. Gushi is well deserved to be called the “Hometown of Chinese Radish”.

Zhongmu Garlic

It is of high quality, rich in nutrients, sticky and fragrant, and has moderate spiciness... Just listening to Sister Yu’s words doesn’t count. You can tell the pros and cons at a glance by looking at the data. : The export qualification rate is 94%, and the export volume accounts for more than 70% of the national total. Garlic has large heads, uniform cloves, is not easily broken, and is durable in storage. Do you think Zhongmou’s reputation as the “garlic town” is in vain? Remember, if you eat garlic, you should also eat Zhongmou garlic!

Zhecheng Huqin

Huqin is quite common, but we still have to mention Huxiang in Zhecheng County, Shangqiu City. Parsley grown in town. The land in Zhecheng is fertile and the water quality is extraordinary. It has been cultivated, rejuvenated and optimized for many years. Celery is particularly delicious. Outside of Huxiang Town, even if grown locally in Shangqiu, the quality is not as good. The celery root of Huxiang Town is small and large, crisp and refreshing, with smooth stems, no silk and residue, and is known as the "King of Celery". No wonder the Spring Festival couplets posted here during the New Year include the sentence "Happy carriages and horses are coming to the door, and Hu Qin is offering wine to welcome the guests."

Yuzhou Vermicelli

The raw material for producing vermicelli is sweet potato, and Yuzhou is also the main growing area of ??sweet potato. Yuzhou vermicelli is bright yellow in color, thin in texture, and evenly thin. With a production history of more than 100 years, it is more convincing than Sister Yu’s praise here. It has good toughness, sufficient tension, and is soft and delicious. Why don’t you like vermicelli with such a strong texture? By the way, don’t be confused if you hear someone say “artificial shark fin” again. They are talking about Yuzhou vermicelli. .

Liangyuan Chili

The chili in Liangyuan Park, Shangqiu City, is famous for its pollution-free planting model. With an annual output of 300,000 tons, it is definitely the "Hometown of Chili in China".

If you have eaten kimchi in Korea, maybe the pepper used to pickle the kimchi is Yangyuan pepper, haha.

Jiaozuo Iron Bar Yam

Yam is no longer a vegetable in the traditional sense. We Henan people all know that adding yam to stew soup is nourishing, adding yam to mutton soup warms the stomach... it is a medicinal diet First choice.

Zhecheng Three Cherry Peppers

Actually, Zhecheng’s Three Cherry Peppers are more famous than Huqin.

When we were young, we nicknamed this kind of red-hot Chaotian pepper "Wangtian Monkey", which is extremely spicy... However, the Sanying pepper grown in Zhecheng can be sold for 30-40 yuan higher than similar prices. They are also being snapped up by domestic and foreign manufacturers because these three cherry peppers are grown using a pollution-free planting model and have been certified by the National Standards Committee.
