00:00 Before watching the video, let me remind you that there is more content on the Hotpot website.
00:05 Longxu sugar is a traditional Chinese folk snack.
00:08 It is white on the outside and has a clear texture.
00:11 It melts in your mouth and is loved by everyone.
00:14 Longxu sugar was also called Silver Sugar in ancient times.
00:18 It is said that during the Ming Dynasty,
00:20 Emperor Zhengde was in the forests.
00:22 He found such a special sugar hidden among the people.
00:26 He ordered to bring this Silver Sugar back to the palace
00:30 and renamed it Longxu sugar.
00:33 Since then, Longxu sugar has been passed down to this day.
00:37 In Kuala Lumpur, a master is still sticking to this traditional craft.
00:41 He makes Longxu sugar by hand every day.
00:44 Let's see the special report of Su Jingyi and Zhang Siying.
00:48 Rubbing, stretching, and rolling.
00:53 While buying powder, pull it back and forth in the eight-character way.
00:56 A pair of skilled hands in a transparent plastic board.
00:59 In a blink of an eye, the soft maltose becomes a silk of thousands of fine and soft hair.
01:04 The skillful hands like the clouds and water.
01:06 The short process of a few minutes is the 30-year work of Master Zhao.
01:10 My name is Zhao Yiming.
01:12 I have been working in Tianliu Palace for more than 30 years.
01:15 In order to prevent the flour from flying all over the sky,
01:17 Master Zhao also specially created a transparent space to make Longxu sugar.
01:20 To ensure hygiene, and also to avoid the aging of Longxu sugar, affecting the taste.
01:24 In fact, making Longxu sugar is not very difficult.
01:27 You can do it if you are determined.
01:29 Now, with Master Zhao, he has opened a shop in Tianhou Palace, Kuala Lumpur.
01:32 In addition to his wife, there is also his little daughter, Yanni.
01:35 Longxu sugar is white as snow, and its delicate appearance attracts many people's attention.
01:41 But to make the real layer clear and the taste of crispy and delicious,
01:45 I am afraid that it is difficult to do without a certain experience accumulation.
01:48 In fact, I personally think that making Longxu sugar is the most difficult for me.
01:52 The most difficult part is the wrapping process.
01:57 Wrapping the peanut filling into the Longxu sugar and then roll it out.
02:00 I personally think that this wrapping process is very time-consuming.
02:03 Longxu sugar is actually based on strength.
02:06 If you can do it, there is no problem.
02:09 If you are stronger, it will not work.
02:12 If you are stronger, it will break.
02:14 If you are weaker, it will not be even.
02:16 So every time you pull, you have to pull it very evenly.
02:20 When it is thin enough, you can finish it.
02:22 Master Zhao, who was born in Piliyibao,
02:24 From grandfather to father, he relied on the craftsmanship of the kneader to make a living.
02:28 After getting married, Master Zhao and his wife went to the capital, Kuala Lumpur, to work.
02:32 Later, by chance, Master Zhao came into contact with Longxu sugar
02:35 And especially to Hong Kong to learn and start the road of making Longxu sugar.
02:39 Longxu sugar is learned from a Hong Kong master.
02:43 I happened to meet him and was very interested.
02:48 After that, I came to Hong Kong to learn Longxu sugar.
02:52 I have been in Hong Kong for more than a year.
02:55 In fact, my family will not object.
02:58 Because I learned a lot of crafts.
03:00 There is no harm in learning a lot of crafts.
03:04 I have always liked to do this kind of handicraft.
03:09 It is also an art.
03:12 As long as it is about interest,
03:14 It can be kept up to this day.
03:18 As time goes by, Master Zhao also improves the ingredients of Longxu sugar.
03:22 From the original peanuts to the more diversified black sesame, wheat, shredded meat, etc.
03:27 Let the traditional old taste enter the world of the younger generation.
03:30 At first, only the original flavor was left.
03:33 It's peanuts.
03:34 At the request of the customers,
03:37 We added some flavor.
03:39 The most popular are the original flavor and black sesame.
03:43 Because many people are sensitive to peanuts.
03:47 So their second choice is black sesame.
03:50 And the wheat is also very popular.
03:53 Younger people like special flavors.
03:57 For example, strawberries, honeydew, durian, etc.
04:01 Master Zhao is brave enough to break the traditional framework.
04:04 Not only the taste of Longxu sugar,
04:05 It also includes the rule that the craft in traditional families only passes on men, not women.
04:09 Every child in his family has mastered this craft.
04:12 Actually, all my daughters know how to do it.
04:16 My purpose is to teach them my craft.
04:20 It's another question whether to develop it or not.
04:24 But they must know.
04:26 For his daughter, although her father rarely speaks Mandarin,
04:29 But her father's persistence in traditional craft makes her admire him.
04:32 I started to make Longxu sugar when I was 10 or 12 years old.
04:36 At that time, I was playing with it.
04:39 I became serious after playing with it.
04:42 He is a very strong man.
04:44 My father really knows everything.
04:47 I admire him very much.
04:49 He is my hero.
04:51 Because of these traditional crafts,
04:54 I rarely come here.
04:55 I am very happy to have someone teach me.
04:58 For Master Zhao,
04:59 Longxu sugar's taste may change due to the changing environment.
05:02 But the only thing that remains unchanged is
05:04 His determination to pass on the craft to his descendants.
05:08 His love is as deep and long as Longxu sugar.
