[Works of Bai Cui's Fifth Food Contest]
Patui’s baking competition has started again. When I saw the requirements of this competition, I decided in my heart that I must participate. I want to make desserts with the elements of my city. I don’t want to win the prize, so I want to exercise. , See if I can make something with Beijing elements. Beijing is an ancient capital with a history of more than 3,000 years. As a native of Beijing, I am very proud. I love this city and the bricks of Beijing. Wa, love the "buddies, sisters" around me. Beijingers usually say: "Have you eaten?" "Where to eat?" What a distinctive greeting! From this we can see that Beijingers are delicious!
There are many elements of ancient charm in Beijing, such as imperial gardens, various folk buildings, courtyard houses, drama, Peking opera, soybean juice, roast duck, etc. There are too many, after thinking about it, I made this Peking opera facial makeup biscuits. Pingju, one of China's five major opera types, is based on Xipi and Erhuang, with accompaniment of Huqin and gongs and drums. It is regarded as the quintessence of China and the top three Chinese operas. In terms of color, the facial makeup of Peking opera has red, purple, black, white, blue, green, yellow, old red, tile gray, gold, silver and other colors. This is an exaggerated description of the natural skin color of the character, and it has developed into a symbol of character. Generally speaking, red depicts the character's loyalty and courage; purple symbolizes wisdom, courage and righteousness; black embodies the character's noble character of loyalty and integrity; water white metaphors the abomination of the character's treacherous nature and vicious methods; oily white represents Domineering personality; blue means strong and brave; green outlines the character's chivalrous intestines; yellow means cruelty; old red mostly expresses respectable loyal and brave veterans; tile gray means old heroes; two colors of gold and silver, mostly used Gods, Buddhas, and ghosts, to show their golden faces and golden bodies, symbolizing the sense of illusion
