Chive Pickle

Chive Pickle

　　Chive pickle is a unique specialty of Binchuan, produced nowhere else in China. The production method involves sun-drying fresh chives to remove some moisture, then mixing them with chili, salt, and other seasonings before sealing and fermenting them in jars. It has a golden-yellow color, and its flavor is uniquely pungent when smelled but refreshingly delicious when tasted. Chive pickle can be eaten on its own or used as an ingredient in stir-fries, especially complementing stir-fried meat and boiled fish.
