In Fuzhou dialect, there are many ancient Chinese vocabulary. The "Ding" of "Ding Bian Hu" is one. The pot is only available after the promotion of Mandarin. In the old days, all pots were called Ding in the local dialect. Dingbian paste is made of rice milk as the main ingredient and seafood is used as the soup base. Because its production method is closely related to the upper half of the pot, the pot is called "ding" in Fuzhou dialect, so it is called "dingbian paste". In other words, Qi Jiguang, a general in charge of Taizhou, Yanzhou, and Jinhua in the Ming Dynasty, led troops into Fujian to guard against Japanese pirates, and the people welcomed them. Set up a table for the Eight Immortals in the southern suburbs of the capital of Fujian for a banquet. Unexpectedly, the culprit arrived again. So someone suggested to grind the rice into a slurry, boil it into a soup, pour the slurry on the side of the pot, then scrape it into the pot and cook it together, and a Ming Dynasty fast food was born. After the Qi family's army ate the Dingbian paste, it really defeated the Japanese pirates. From then on, Qi Jiajun and Dingbian became famous. Today is the summer solstice. Fuzhou folklore expert Zheng Ziduan said that the summer solstice was visited as a festival in Fuzhou's traditional customs, and there was a saying of "making summer". On this day, old Fuzhou people usually come to Wanding to "make summer". In 1961, Marshal Zhu De said when he was tasting Dingbian paste in Fuzhou, such a simple raw material, such a simple preparation, such a simplified way of eating, but there is such an attractive charm, it is really unforgettable.

Fuzhou Famous Snack Dingbian Paste recipe

2. Put these condiments that need to be stir-fried into hot oil and stir-fry quickly.

3. Then add the clams and continue to fry. Stir fry until the clam mouth is about to open, add water to the pot until it boils.

4. Spread the rice milk on the edge of the pot along the edge of the pot.
This is the most technical step.

If the rice milk is too thick at the beginning, it will become too thick because the rice milk cannot flow down.
When the rice milk is too thin at the beginning, it will appear that the rice will not stick to the edge of the pot, and will soon flow into the pot before it has formed.
It will cause too much rice milk in the soup to affect the taste.
