Historical and cultural

The source of Jingdezhen porcelain originates from the kiln in Longgang East Village (now Yao Li Village, Yao Li Village), and there have been ceramic workshops here since the middle of the Tang Dynasty.Local farmers who were rich were merchants, i.e., the owner of ceramic trading workshops;Those who were skilled were skilled workers, i.e., those with excellent porcelain making skills, who were employees hired by the workshop owners.Workshop owners reasonably compensated their workers for their labor, and provided them with three meals a day and an extra snack, in order to motivate and attract skilled workers.The workshop owners would provide an extra snackmeal to their skilled workers to attract and retain them.To diversify the snack variety, a new snack type called "alkaline water " was created by some kilns and workshops before the Northern Song Dynasty.This was called "cake" by local people, because it was made with water filtered from rice stalks burnt into ash, so it was called "ash cake".Later, it was made into small round cakes and steamed in a steamer, which was called "ash cake" (people in Fuling called all steamed rice food "cake");All steamed products were collectively called "cake".This product is thinly sliced and cooked, the taste is fragrant (strong alkaline flavor), chewy, and refreshing, with its own flavor.After being passed down from generation to generation, until the Southern Song Dynasty, most farmers in the county could master the production techniques of this product.

Besides being used as a snack for guests, alkaline water was also used as a staple food for farmers working in the mountains or in distant fields due to its convenience in carrying.According to legend, the Southern Song general Yue Fei led the Yue Army to defend Jiang and Lake against the Jin;The people of Fuling also made "ash cake" and sent it to Yue Fei's army.The Yue Army also used this product as their military rations.During the Qing Dynasty, in the years of the Xianfeng Emperor, the Taiping Army fought in Fuling, the people of Fuling also used this product to reward the Taiping Army.During the Land Revolution War, many farmers in Fuling used this product to reward the Red Army and the Red Army guerrillas fighting in the mountains.

Recipe

Alkaline water is simple to make, inexpensive, and easy to store.It uses rice to make flour, mixed with alkaline water (local people often use early rice stalks to burn ash and filter the water as alkaline water, which has a more fragrant flavor than the market-sold ice alkaline water), cooked with a special bamboo sieve over high heat, about 10 cm thick.When eating, cut into thin slices and cook with local smokedSalted meatgarlic, etc., which can be both filling and a good accompaniment to drinks.

In modern alkaline water production, in order to save time, alkaline water is directly used, which will damage the taste of alkaline water.Traditional alkaline water production requires high-quality alkaline water, which must be made from natural plant materials, such as tea seed shells,soybeansstalk, rice straw to burn into ash, then rinse with water, the alkaline water after rinsing is the key to the success of alkaline water.This alkaline water has a good alkaline level, not only preserves the original flavor, but also does not add any chemical additives, which is very suitable for people's current preference for environmentally friendly food and healthy living requirements.
