L is pure natural preserved fruit with juice, without baking, baking and heating. This is a traditional food loved by Jianchuan people. It used to be a tribute to the boss, a gift to the deceased, and a gift to relatives and friends. Good plum is sweet and crisp, and the longer it takes, the more brittle it becomes. Old people and children like to eat it, because it is both food and medicinal value. There is pepper in the plum in Subao dialect, which plays a sweating role: there are perilla leaves, perilla has a astringent effect, and honey has a moisturizing effect. The best medicine is to treat diarrhea. Better than furazolidone (a western medicine), especially suitable for the elderly. Eating furazolidone can't stand it, but eating a few soubao plums can stop it immediately.

The production of subao plums, the plums ripe in July and August, and the other 20-30% are cooked by sugar in the later stage. Soak in salt or lime for 4 hours to make the core easier to take out and play an anti-corrosion role. Plums are brittle when squeezed out of water. Adding pepper can sterilize, increase flavor and promote saccharification. Take out the core the next day. There are two methods of coring, one is to take it out from the tail with a knife, and the other is the pressure plate method. After soaking, press the board and the core will come out. Peeled plum meat is the main raw material of Subao plum. Taking fresh pepper, perilla leaf and honey as auxiliary raw materials. Method: Put three raw Zanthoxylum bungeanum into plum nest, add a spoonful of honey, put the two halves together, wrap them with perilla leaves and put them in a bottle. At first, the water can be drained and drunk. If processing Su Bao Hua Mei is combined with making drinks, two kinds of products can be produced. The juice squeezed from the pot is very nutritious. Almost soaked in water, about three days later, 50kg plums were put with 1kg wine, and white sugar was sprinkled layer by layer, so that the oil could not be stained. The storage time is longer and better. For good color, use sugar. If you use brown sugar, the juice is black and there is no truth. Sugar and honey are commonly used now. Later, people from Dali and Eryuan came to Jianchuan to study, and now they also produce this kind of product. It is better to pick the soaked water as soon as possible. Apricot plum and salt plum are suitable for Su Bao plum and carved plum. Marry the plum on the apricot tree as apricot plum. There are two old plum trees in Jianchuan, covering tens of meters wide.

Plum itself is a Chinese herbal medicine. After drying, it is dark plum, which has insecticidal and astringent effects. The output of Jianchuan plums sold is about 200 tons per year, including wild plums. There is a kind of unmarried bitter plum.

Stewed plum with carved plum

Carved plum and stewed plum are produced in Eryuan. Carved plum is a handicraft food. The nutritional value of Su-wrapped plum is better than that of carved plum, that is, it is better to carve plum than to sell it. The selection of carved plums is wide, and apricot and plum are basically used. After picking it, wash it and soak it in lime or salt water until the heart hardens and looks cooked. That's right. This is technology. Master the heat, use a meat cutter, leave half a centimeter wide on both sides, dig out the core, draw it into a diamond shape, the finer the better, sprinkle with white sugar, saccharify and press it, and it will become a flower.
