pickled leek flowers
Leek flowers, also known as leek flowers, are white flower clusters that grow on leek white in autumn. They are mostly picked when they are about to bloom before they bloom, ground and marinated into sauce. Farmers often call them "leek flowers", which are especially popular in Linyi, a northern city. When autumn comes, leek flowers are sold everywhere in the market. The pickled leek flowers are slightly spicy and the aroma of leek overflows. It is a must-have dish in autumn.
Most of the methods of making leek flowers are ground into sauce shapes. Adding peppers during the grinding process seems to be an ancient method. The poem "Deer Tail" by Yelu Chucai, a native of the Yuan Dynasty, says: "Leek is cool and spicy, and mustard is like cinnamon ginger." It doesn't seem to be "cool and spicy" without peppers.
