Whenever it is extremely cold in winter, that is, when energy fights against the cold, the vitality of food becomes a powerful backing for energy.
Once the canned characters set foot on the land of China, they spread branches and leaves in the fertile soil of the north and south with lightning speed, which can make people eat the richness of the Manchu-Han banquet. Aunt Hong Kong, Shanghai Meilin, Guangdong Yuehua, Dandong Guangtian, Liaoning Hongta, Wenzhou Panda ... Open a can of vegetables and put them flat on hot rice. Gravy and vegetable soup are frozen, which is a full "can" for pouring rice. 01-"medium" ok? "foreign" canned food? Stupid to tell the difference.
The formal appearance of canned food in the food industry probably dates back to18th century when Napoleon was fighting in Europe, and the French offered a reward to solve the problem of how the army prolonged the storage period of food during the war. Later, the French and the British invented the method of holding cooked food in glass and metal containers and then taking time out. Since then, canned food has won the hearts of the people with its dazzling aura of storage resistance, ready-to-eat, portability and hygiene, and has become a new favorite in food and a "treasure" food.
Beidaihe's "military" canned food is a leader in the energy field.
Unlike the packaging of most cans on the market, Hebei Chihuo has always been interested in Beidaihe cans produced in Qinhuangdao since childhood.
The predecessor of Beidaihe canned food is the military canned food specially supplied to the army. At first, the sealing method without tab was popularized, but when I was a child, it became a lot of people's distress to covet the delicious canned food. But for pure foodies, only by carefully opening a small hole in the lid first, and then tilting the lid as a whole with tools, can we have a sense of ritual in eating canned food, which is also a sign of "purity" of canned military products.

A can full of high-energy meat is undoubtedly a specialty of Beidaihe canned food. For heroic soldiers who defend the frontier, it is the basis of ensuring physical strength and an important source of energy. Fat and thin braised pork and hooves, large pieces of solid beef and lion's head with sauce alcohol can still capture the hearts of carnivores at one stroke today.
Shanghai Meilin not only has "foreign" blood.
But when it comes to the "foreign" gene of canned food, Shanghai enjoys the right to speak as a "ten-mile foreign field".
As early as the early 20th century, Shanghai Taikang Food Company took the lead in introducing canned food from overseas, among which imported ketchup was always used in western restaurants. The expensive but popular ketchup made shareholders gradually develop the idea of imitating ketchup.

Facts have proved that China's "tomato sauce" produced by tomatoes in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces is ruddy in color and rich in taste, which is not inferior to imported goods at all.

At this time, the soft and elastic waxy baked bran is porous and spongy, absorbing the salty and sweet taste of the soup, boarding the canned express train and entering thousands of households all over the world.

The Hometown Flavor of Guangdong Eagle Money's Down to Nanyang
If Shanghai Meilin is a canned taste developed by China people themselves, then Cantonese canned food contains dreams and distant places. /kloc-in the 0/9th century, Cantonese people set off an upsurge of "going to South Asia". When they are far away in a foreign country, a delicious bite of shad from their hometown has become the wish of many people to "float abroad".
The shad produced in Nanhai, Panyu or Shunde, Guangdong Province, was fried in a pot until both sides were golden, and then mixed with Yangjiang's douchi, put in a pot and soaked in soybean oil to make a preserved "first edition" of douchi shad. It is quite similar to the "canning" method recorded by the ancients in A Record of the Great Cause of Zhou Li-"Put the fish in a brand-new anhydrous porcelain bottle and seal the bottle with mud to prevent air from entering. After 50 to 60 days, it is rarely the same as before. "

It is precisely because of the mellow flavor of Douchi and the tenderness of shad that people can swallow a few bowls of rice, and Douchi shad has become a "delicious food" for generations of Cantonese people. If fresh seasonal vegetables are added, Douchi shad will be transformed into a seasoning for a dish, a handful of oil wheat vegetables, or a bitter and juicy bitter gourd, cut into pieces, add minced garlic, stir-fry over high fire and smell delicious. Delicious and juicy vegetables, mixed with the sauce flavor of lobster sauce and shad, are all home-cooked dishes that Cantonese people can't live without so far.

Olive vegetables that confuse people's eyes are actually the compatibility of mustard leaves and olives, belonging to Chaozhou cuisine in Cantonese cuisine. Choose green and full olives, remove bitterness, stir-fry with oil and salt, add selected old mustard leaves, simmer until dark and shiny, soak olive glycol in mustard leaves, and then put them in a jar for storage. When I miss the bite of minced green beans with olive vegetables, I will buy a bundle of diced beans, stir-fry them with minced meat and olive vegetables, serve them on a plate, and easily ignite the pride of novice chefs.

-04- canned fruit, private taste
When I was a child, every winter and summer vacation, I took the green leather train and embarked on the long way home from south to north. The boring journey lasted more than ten hours, which made people uncomfortable. At this time, as long as you take out canned fruit, full pulp and sweet juice, you can immediately dispel all fatigue. Sydney, oranges, apples, hawthorn ... at this moment, the fruits in the north and south are dazzling.
Canned food can always keep up with the pace of the season, and just the ripe melons and fruits in the north and south can be freshly canned in the first time. Eating the fruits of the four seasons in one breath in the severe winter is the most wonderful taste of life.

Canned yellow peaches "can cure all diseases" is a childhood memory of many northeast people. When I was a child, every time I had a fever and a cold, I could harvest canned peaches that were rare on weekdays. My elders always said, "Just eat canned peaches." Over time, the discomfort of getting sick and catching a cold can't resist the delicious temptation of yellow peaches. Somehow, the fresh yellow peaches you can eat now are a little less sweet than canned ones, and the taste is a little less gentle and soothing.
In the matter of "eating melons", the people of Harbin can be described as "cheap". In the harvest season of cantaloupe, you can smell the body shape of cantaloupe and the rich fragrance at the nose. At this time, you can seal this melon fragrance with a can bottle until you are a tired kebab partner in winter.

Pickled in canned food, white and fat litchi meat is wrapped in clear juice, which is more playful and lovely. "Pineapple in a glass jar, pineapple ring in an iron jar" was summed up by southerners. In order to win more prizes, the pineapple in the can has also become sour and approachable.

After eating the pulp, drink the juice, and the remaining glass bottles can be used for other purposes. Soak a cup of fragrant green tea and watch the branches and leaves bloom and rotate in boiling hot water. Or let the elders at home hook a unique canned coat according to the cup-shaped figure in their spare time, which can not only carry a strap with them, but also avoid burns, and it is also a multifunctional hand warmer in winter. The canned bottles dressed in this way have become the object of pk for every baby to go to school.
Today, with the development of cold chain, "canned food" has long diluted the definitions of "appearance (trade) association" and "persistent portable storage", but in the hearts of several generations, it has more identities-perhaps it is the deep affection for the homeland and hometown, perhaps it is the nostalgia for an era, or it may be a new interpretation of the present life ...
