generation. Memory for food is a sentiment connected to the circumstances and experiences more than to food itself. It could be somewhat inherited from generation to generation but vanished in the end. But I can clearly figure out image depicted by my mom:"A girl sitting on a small chair coals a stove with dirty briquettes. Then she is holding at the same time with a bowl of egg glaze and a spoon. Skillfully picking the pork sauce into the glaze layer, after finishing a Dan Jiao, she quickly and carefully delivers the final product to a wood bucket. The fire is getting fiercer. Though the girl is keeping cooking the same thing for a whole night, delight and expectation are both on her face to welcome Spring Festival. "
