Unique umami legend in Jieyang—Tu Xia

Tu Xia is not actually a kind of shrimp, but a special ingredient composed of marine plankton, which is an "exclusive" delicacy of Jieyang. Known as the "natural water quality detector", it looks like cement. Yet, once cooked, it delivers an exquisite umami flavor. Taste it, and the fresh sweetness explodes, leaving you with a lingering aftertaste.
