Small but unique: The birth of 'zhacai'

<p>Pickled mustard tuber, known as <em>zhacai</em> in Chinese, is a household dish made of stems of mustard in China. After being plucked and thickly cut into equal sized slices, the stems are aired for a day to be dried. Then the stems are put into a pickling jar with salt for about ten days. When the stems are well-pickled, they will be transferred into sealed pots with paprika and sugar, and zhacai is ready for foodies. Although inconspicuous and small, <em>Zhacai</em> is an important embellishment in home cooking.</p><p><span style="color: rgb(127, 127, 127);">(Compiled by Sun Hang, video source: Kuaishou)</span></p>
