Qingdao citizens gather to dig the sea. They know what the sea knows. How to eat?

Recently, it has been reported that Qingdao citizens are digging "sea cicadas" in groups. The sea cicadas are almost extinct. The sea cicadas have a protective effect on the coastal ecological environment. The price is very expensive. Do you know what the sea cicadas are? I suggest not to eat them for the sake of ecology!

What is Haizhi

It's called cicada shrimp. It's a kind of marine organism between shrimp and crab,

Haizhi is a kind of cicada shrimp, also known as haichuo, haijieling (dialect), a specialty of Rizhao, Shandong Province. It looks like a young cicada on the land. It has two parts, many legs and thin shell. It is mainly produced in the coastal beaches of Anjia village, two towns, with a small area, so the output is less, and it is expensive because of its rarity. After frying in the pan, the cicada shrimp is crispy and delicious, rich in calcium, phosphorus, potassium and other minerals.

How much is Qingdao Haizhi

Haizhi is a specialty of two towns in Rizhao City. Twenty years ago, Haizhi was often found by the sea. Its taste is more delicious than crab. However, with the growing market demand of Haizhi, and Haizhi can not be cultured artificially, now Haizhi has become fewer and smaller. Now because of the scarcity, Haizhi can sell 120 yuan a Jin in the hotel. They dug up the sea cicada, and then there were merchants who collected it from them. We sold it to those merchants, and we could basically sell it for 40 yuan per Jin.

Later, the reporter took a "haizhihe" to visit some coastal restaurants and found that most of the small restaurants no longer sell "haizhihe" because of the scarcity and high price. Meng Jie, the owner of seafood gear, is a native of Rizhao. At one glance, he recognized the reporter's "Haizhi".

Meng Jie told reporters that in the summer of 2009, he also sold "haizhihe". At that time, the average price per Jin had reached 20 to 25 yuan. 'but now it's rare and expensive. Generally, only big restaurants sell this kind of seafood. 'said Meng Jie.

Expert: Jiefang Meizu crab is a precious marine creature

According to expert identification, the scientific name of "haizhiyou" is indeed "Jiefang Meizu crab". In Shandong, Yantai was the first place to find it, and Rizhao was the second place to find it. Recently, it was found in the sea area of Qingdao.

'what I see in the sunshine is that the whole turtle is black, and the side here is white. It's female, like genitals and swimming feet, which are unique to females. "Said Zhou Liqing.

Continuous mining leads to resource decline

According to experts, this kind of crab actually lives in a narrow range and has important ecological significance for the beach it inhabits. It is a precious marine organism between shrimp and crab.

'it is generally located in the low tide area of fine sand, which has a better survival. It plays a loose and clean role in the low tide area of fine sand. Because of its good nutritional value, the villagers have a large number of excavation for it. For many years of continuous carpet excavation, the amount of resources for releasing Scylla has decreased a lot, such as the sunshine has dropped by more than 70%. '
