Therefore, burrowing mice and tuckahoe are often cooked together like dolls. The old man suffered from rheumatism and pain in the rain, so he cooked several times in a row "Boiled Pig's Feet with Mice and Rat." A family of four can cook half a catty of burrowing mice at a time, and then add other soup ingredients.
Fresh burrowers scraped off the outer skin covered with black mud, and the inner texture was quite smooth. However, the active ingredients contained in it were too easy to oxidize, and it turned from snow white to iron and gold after being put away.
