In Lu Xun's works, there have been many images of farmers wearing black felt hats. Shaped like three bowls, black inside and outside, thick felt; Shaoxing felt hat, apt and hard, was very popular as early as Qing Dynasty. About its origin, there is a legend that a hunter killed a tiger in a cave a long time ago. When I went down the mountain, I found a piece of felt stuck by flesh and blood on the tiger's back. It turns out that this is the animal hair left by tigers after catching pigs and sheep at ordinary times, and it has become a pie-shaped felt due to the pressure of habitat. After the hunter washed the felt with hot water, he spread it on the grass and pressed the water with pebbles. After a few days, the dry felt turned into a bowl, and the hunter put it on his head as a hat to make him feel comfortable and warm. Therefore, it is rumored that the tiger is the "ancestor" of making felt hats. At present, the main raw material for producing black felt hats is wool, which is first selected, processed into elastic looseness, degreased and greasy, and then combed, laminated and pressed. It is not easy to be soaked in water and stained with sludge. Wearing it on your head can protect you from the wind and rain, and flanging is also used to hold cigarettes and put money. Chinese and foreign guests visiting Shaoxing are also interested in seeing the simple and generous black felt hat with the characteristics of Shaoxing water town. They bought one to wear on their heads and took a photo as a souvenir. Mr. Lu Xun once described the bowl of "black dried vegetables" in the novel "The Storm". According to the book Yue You Bian Lan, "Dried vegetables were made by Shaoxing folk in the19th century." Up to now, the habit of pickling dried vegetables in urban and rural families is still very common, and even many overseas Chinese housewives are happy to make their own. Dried vegetables are dried mushrooms, which are generally pickled and dried with mustard, cabbage and rape, among which mustard is the main one. In Shaoxing, whenever spring returns to the earth and the weather is clear, it is a good season to pickle dried mushrooms. People cut the mustard planted in the back of the house and along the river bank into the ground one by one, and then share it in the nearest farmland corner or open space in front of the house. After a day or two, they wash it and hang it on bamboo poles to dry, and then pile it on a table with air circulation, so that the vegetables can be kept at a temperature of about 15 degrees Celsius and turned once every few days. When the color of mustard changes from green to Huang Shi, it can be pickled. The color of pickles turns green again, and then the marinade is squeezed out to dry, which becomes yellow and red dried vegetables. At this time, moldy vegetables are generally not eaten, but like Shaoxing old wine, it tastes delicious after being sealed for a period of time. Of course, pickled moldy dried vegetables should be properly pickled. The dried vegetables cooked by people who know the craft are rich in amino acids, and the taste of the vegetables is pure and delicious. The more steamed, the softer it becomes.
