The rivers in the south of the Yangtze River are crisscrossed by rivers, and there are shrimps all year round. Especially at the turn of spring and summer, river shrimps are abundant and delicious. The local area is known as wheat yellow and shrimps in abundance. In late spring and early summer, shrimp bodies are richest in amino acids and have the best taste, and the shrimp brains are plump at that time. Shrimp brains are commonly known as pomegranate seeds, which are delicious and plump. Female shrimps with scallops have fresh shrimp roe. River shrimp has high nutritional value and is rich in protein, phosphorus, calcium, etc. According to the theory of traditional Chinese medicine, it is warm in nature and sweet in taste, and has the effects of nourishing yin and strengthening yang, nourishing the kidneys, strengthening sperm, and strengthening the brain.
