擁有壯美自然景觀的山東，鐘靈毓秀，美不勝收；擁有“孔孟之鄉(xiāng)、禮儀之邦”美譽的山東，歷史悠久，文化燦爛；擁有大氣魯菜和精致小吃的山東，熱氣騰騰，珍饈飄香……《In Shandong》原創(chuàng)英文系列視頻，邀請外國友人一起品鑒山東的“顏值”“滋味”和“內(nèi)涵”，一起走近勤勞聰慧的山東人。

Laiyang of Yantai City is known as the home of pears in Shandong. Deep soil and sufficient light in Laiyang create favorable natural conditions for pears to grow, thus making the fruits large, tender, and rich in nutrients. Despite its luscious taste, Laiyang pear also has medicinal functions such as quenching thirst, promoting body fluid, resolving phlegm, and moistening the lungs. In addition to the pear itself, “Laiyang Pear Syrup“ also occupies an important position in pear production industry.

煙臺萊陽，素有梨鄉(xiāng)之稱。因有土層深厚，光照充足等多種自然條件的眷顧，使得在此生長的慈梨果實碩大，肉質(zhì)細(xì)嫩。其含有豐富營養(yǎng)的同時，也有著極高的藥用價值，有止渴生津、化痰潤肺之功能。其實除了梨本身，“萊陽慈梨膏”在梨產(chǎn)品中也占據(jù)著重要的位置。

Originated in the late Qing Dynasty, the craftsmanship of Laiyang Pear Syrup was selected into the fifth batch of representative projects of Shandong provincial intangible cultural heritage in 2021. Classic Laiyang Pear Syrup is made from the authentic Laiyang pear named Ci Pear. The selected pears are washed with mountain spring water, then peeled and cored. With the pear wood ignited, the pears will go through nine rounds of low-temperature boiling and filtering, as well as twenty more manual processes. After the processes, the pears are steamed and simmered and then the fire is ceased in order for the pear juice to be precipitated and clarified. Collecting the syrup is the key part of the technique. The precipitated pear juice should be poured into a casserole, and then simmered slowly on charcoal fire, making the syrup silky, deep in color, with a beautiful amber light.

萊陽慈梨膏的制作技藝起源于清朝末年，2021年，萊陽慈梨膏制作技藝入選第五批省級非物質(zhì)文化遺產(chǎn)代表性項目名錄。經(jīng)典的梨膏由正宗的萊陽慈梨熬制而成。用山泉水將挑選好的萊陽梨洗刷干凈，削皮去核。點燃梨木，經(jīng)過九濾九煉的低溫熬煉和二十多道純手工工序，將梨蒸熟煨爛后?；穑尷嬷恋沓吻濉０局剖崭?，是考驗技術(shù)的關(guān)鍵環(huán)節(jié)。將沉淀后的梨汁取上清液倒入砂鍋內(nèi)，木炭文火慢熬，熬制的梨膏綿綢柔韌、色澤深沉，泛有絕美的琥珀之光。

However, one cannot ignore the effort needed for producing the syrup -- every 20 catties of pears are simmered slowly for 72 hours only to form 1 catty of pear syrup, which tastes sweet and delicate. One small jar of pear syrup, gathering the essence of a hundred herbs, is refreshing and heavenly for the taste.

每20斤慈梨慢火熬制72小時才能形成1斤梨膏，口感香甜細(xì)膩。小小梨膏，聚集了百草精髓，食之清爽，直入心脾。
