龍(long)須(xu)酥被(bei)稱為(wei)中國民間特色傳統小吃(chi),因外觀潔白綿密、細如龍(long)須(xu)而(er)得(de)名。
龍須酥(su)由小麥精(jing)粉、麥芽糖等原料精(jing)制而成,具(ju)有色澤乳白、細(xi)絲(si)萬縷、層(ceng)次清(qing)晰、營養豐(feng)富、入口即松、回味甘甜等特(te)點。
據說是古代皇帝(di)吃(chi)的小食品(pin),已(yi)流(liu)傳民(min)間(jian)(jian)(jian)二千(qian)余年了。正德皇帝(di)游民(min)間(jian)(jian)(jian)時(shi),發現民(min)間(jian)(jian)(jian)竟有味(wei)道、外形如此(ci)特別(bie)之(zhi)(zhi)糖,當時(shi)稱之(zhi)(zhi)為(wei)“銀絲糖”,入(ru)口極香(xiang)、口味(wei)特別(bie),因而對(dui)此(ci)物產生(sheng)好感,于是下旨帶回(hui)宮中,并取名(ming)為(wei)“龍(long)(long)(long)(long)須(xu)(xu)(xu)糖”、也被稱為(wei)“龍(long)(long)(long)(long)須(xu)(xu)(xu)卷”及后(hou)再(zai)傳入(ru)民(min)間(jian)(jian)(jian),一直是深受臣(chen)民(min)們(men)喜愛的食品(pin)。龍(long)(long)(long)(long)須(xu)(xu)(xu)酥(su)據傳已(yi)流(liu)傳民(min)間(jian)(jian)(jian)二千(qian)年,一直為(wei)皇帝(di)御用點(dian)心,直至雍(yong)正年間(jian)(jian)(jian),龍(long)(long)(long)(long)須(xu)(xu)(xu)酥(su)才名(ming)聲(sheng)大(da)震。相傳,一日雍(yong)正皇帝(di)設(she)滿(man)漢全(quan)席,宴請文武百(bai)官(guan)。當御廚現場制作該(gai)酥(su)時(shi),雍(yong)正皇帝(di)見其手法嫻(xian)熟,似游龍(long)(long)(long)(long)舞(wu)鳳(feng),手中糖絲雪白、纖細,如祥龍(long)(long)(long)(long)之(zhi)(zhi)須(xu)(xu)(xu),遂龍(long)(long)(long)(long)顏大(da)悅,賞賜眾嬪(pin)妃臣(chen)子,并特封(feng)此(ci)糖為(wei)“龍(long)(long)(long)(long)須(xu)(xu)(xu)酥(su)”,自此(ci),龍(long)(long)(long)(long)須(xu)(xu)(xu)酥(su)的美名(ming)遍傳大(da)江南北(bei)。
