芒子米巧遇湖鲜

Mangzimi Encounters Lake Food

作为微山湖有名的地方特色菜,“老瞥靠河涯”具有浓郁的乡土气息,然而要想吃到真正的“老鳖靠河涯”却不是件容易的事。菜中的“老鳖”不是真正的老鱉(甲鱼),而是用面食贴制的锅饼,地道的贴锅饼用的是芒子米碾成的粉。芒子米是苦茳草的籽实,苦茳草是湖中的一种挺水植物,对生态环境的要求颇高,春夏出湖底生长,在八月末、九月初开始结籽成熟。芒子米穗株如水稻,颗粒小但没有水稻稠密,因此不必担心被湖风刮折。

Tourists visiting the Weishan Lake may hear of the dish“Laobie Kaoheya”(a braised pot with pancakes).Traditional fishermen's snacks are always unforgettable.Among a wide variety of fisher feasts,most people will choose“Laobie Kaoheya”.The“Laobie”in the dish is not real Laobie(soft-shelled turtle),but baked pancake.An authentic baked pancake is made from Mangzimi flour.
