【Nostoc Tofu Soup】 --- A bowl of soup with all kinds of threads

Regarding food, every place has its own habits, and every family has its own habits. Our family likes to have soup in addition to breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Even if sometimes we don’t have time to simmer it slowly, we still want to make it quick. Nostoc tofu soup is something I often make. It is colorful, light and delicious. It's just that to make this soup, you need to practice a certain amount of knife skills to cut tofu shreds with even thickness, so I also made a detailed record of the steps.

The auspicious dish for the Spring Festival: Gong Xi Prosperity——[Fa Cai Soup]

The most important festival of the year for Chinese people - the Spring Festival is coming, and for us, the most anticipated and important thing during the Spring Festival is the New Year's Eve dinner for family reunion. On New Year's Eve, no matter how far apart they are or how busy they are at work, people always want to return to their parents, where the whole family sits together to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new. What to have for New Year’s Eve dinner? Different places have different customs. Although there are many kinds of dishes, the purpose is to pay attention to the auspicious name and the dishes must be delicious, delicious and delicious. In my hometown of Guizhou, chicken and fish are must-haves for New Year’s Eve dinner. Chicken and auspicious are homophonic, which means good luck and good luck. The [Ciba Spicy Chicken] that I posted before is a classic dish for Guizhou people’s New Year’s Eve dinner; and fish, which is homophonic for “Yu”, means there is plenty every year, so it is even more essential. The classic recipe is “Spicy Fish” (you have to learn it when you find the opportunity). In addition to these two dishes, the other dishes are each restaurant's own seasonal stir-fries. Of course, bacon, sausages, various braised foods and Guizhou's unique fried millet, salted vegetables and meat are also indispensable. Compared to my parents' simple Guizhou-style New Year's Eve dinner, I feel that my husband's family's Chaoshan-style New Year's Eve dinner is more elaborate. Although now we celebrate the New Year around the fire, it is much simpler than before, but the hot pot ingredients are also very particular, not to mention the fish. Needless to say, various Chaoshan-specific meatballs: cuttlefish balls, fish balls, pork balls, pork belly balls, etc. are indispensable. The pronunciation of "ball" in Chaoshan dialect is like "round", and the shape of various meatballs is round, which means reunion. In addition to hot pot, several dishes are usually prepared, such as pickled blood clams, fried leeks, and cabbage soup. These dishes may seem simple, but they all have meanings. I really can't get used to eating pickled blood clams, so I didn't ask about the meaning. I guess it's because the sound produced by grinding the clam shells together is very similar to the sound of copper coins; leek and "jiu" are homophones, symbolizing longevity, which is indispensable for the elderly in the family; "facai" and "facai" are homophones, symbolizing abundant wealth in the new year, and are especially popular among those who are in business. How to cook this vegetable soup depends on different family preferences. My husband’s family likes to cook it with dried squid and cuttlefish balls. After the soup is cooked, it turns light red and has a red and fiery feeling; the hair-like nostoc, which is black in color, is wrapped around the snow-white cuttlefish balls, which also has the meaning of reunion. In addition, nostoc is a homonym for fortune, so it is really an auspicious dish. Although there are many different opinions on eating Nostoc nowadays, in this auspicious festival, having one is more about seeking good luck and wishing you to make a fortune. On weekdays, we avoid it whenever we can.
