Why does snail powder smell bad? Where does the stink of snail powder come from?

Some people describe the stink of snail powder like this - they cook it at home, and it stinks after eating the pot, bowl and chopsticks. The stink of snail powder can be compared with stinky tofu, but many people have a special hobby for snail powder, so why does snail powder smell so stinky?

The main reason for the stink of snail powder is that the sour bamboo shoot is also called stinky bamboo shoot. It has a natural stink, but it's very healthy and delicious. Guilin rice noodles are not authentic without sour bamboo shoot. I still remember that when I was very young, I didn't like eating snail powder for the first time. I thought it was very smelly and disgusting, but my friends all liked it, so sometimes I had to go with them. But snail powder is a magical food. Most people fall in love with it only when they eat it for the third and fourth time, and they fall in love with it completely..

Me too. Snail powder is a special product of Liuzhou, Guangxi. The position of snail powder is very high in Guangxi. It's the same in our school. There are half of the people from other provinces in our school, nearly a third of the people from the north and the south. There are snails selling in the north and South canteens, and they are all in long lines, both in the north and the south. I know a student sister. She said that she vomited when she first ate the snail powder. Now she has no soup left, and she eats it at least three times a week.

As a person in Liuzhou (does anyone know that snail powder is a snack in Liuzhou?), I should first correct a statement that this is a special fragrance, not a bad smell. To me, it's the taste of my hometown.

This taste is the taste of sour bamboo shoots. Some foreigners can't get used to it. Some say it's the smell of stinky tofu. Some say it's the smell of putrefaction. To tell the boss not to put sour bamboo shoots in the snail powder is the same as if the owl has no owl head and the butterfly flower has no butterfly shape. I don't know. (actually, the snail powder doesn't have to have a snail, but it can't have sour bamboo shoots. Beijing's snail powder is made of a kind of shell Class instead of snail soup, the most authentic ones I estimate can have 85.6% of the authentic snail powder, if there is no sour bamboo shoot, it is 0%. )Sour bamboo shoot is the fermented bamboo shoot. After being fermented by a certain technology, it will become this flavor. If you know how to appreciate its connotation, you will know that it is fragrant but not rotten. It's appetizing to smell, salivating to think, and rolling to eat.

An author named Qingsi published an article named "the taste of sour bamboo shoots" in Beijing Youth Daily. The description is very detailed and vivid. The excerpt is as follows:

[in other words, sour bamboo shoots are also some historical things. Gu Gu Gu, a man of the Ming Dynasty, recorded a section of the characters of the sour bamboo shoots produced on Hainan Island in the book of the remaining records of haicha: "the sour bamboo shoots are as big as arms, and they are taken out until they are soaked in boiling soup for two or three days, then they are soaked in cold well water for two or three days, then they are taken out, like silk, and cooked with vinegar. Good people bring in Zhongzhou, rare & hellip; & hellip; '
