Greetings, dear ones. Today in our field of vision is a salad, which includes Beijing cabbage, eggs and corn. And this is not a curiosity, but just a great snack or even a replacement for a full lunch, or maybe dinner. Another value that distinguishes this salad is that you can put almost anything in it, and this is not only Chinese cabbage, eggs and corn, but also cucumbers, crab sticks, onions and other ingredients. But about the recipe itself later, but for now a little history.
History of the dish
Speaking about this dish, we immediately note its main ingredient - Chinese cabbage. Without this product, the proposed salad will no longer be the same and will turn into a completely different dish. So, Beijing cabbage and what does it have in common with the one that we are all used to seeing on our table - white cabbage. The first and most important thing that unites them is the name, and perhaps even poured leaves. This is where the similarities end and the differences begin. Beijing cabbage was invented in China many thousands of years ago. When you see it for the first time, it really seems like it's just a leaf lettuce. However, it's still cabbage. It is cooked in very different ways: boiled, stewed, baked and even fried. Today we will eat raw cabbage and even more, we will prepare a salad where Beijing cabbage, corn, an egg and fresh herbs will fall, but we will not use crab sticks.
