老包是浙江人，他的毛竹林里，长出过遂昌县最大的一个冬笋。冬笋藏在土层的下面，从竹林的表面上看，什么也没有，老包只需要看一下竹梢的叶子颜色，就能知道笋的准确位置，这完全有赖于他丰富的经验。 笋的保鲜从来都是个很大的麻烦，笋只是一个芽，是整个植物机体活动最旺盛的部分。聪明的老包保护冬笋的方法很简单，扒开松松的泥土，把笋重新埋起来，保湿，这样的埋藏方式就地利用自然，可以保鲜两周以上。 在中国的四大菜系里，都能见到冬笋。厨师偏爱它，也是因为笋的材质单纯，极易吸收配搭食物的滋味。 圣武和茂荣是兄弟俩，每年9月，他们都会来到湖北的嘉鱼县，来采挖一种自然的美味。这种植物生长在湖水下面深深的淤泥之中，茂荣挖到的植物的根茎叫做莲藕，是一种湖泊中高产的蔬菜。 作为职业挖藕人，每年茂荣和圣武要只身出门7个月，采藕的季节，他们就从老家安徽赶到有藕的地方。较高的人工报酬使得圣武和茂荣愿意从事这个艰苦的工作。挖藕的人喜欢天气寒冷，这并不是因为天冷好挖藕，而是天气冷买藕吃藕汤的人就多一些，藕的价格就会涨。 整整一湖的莲藕还要采摘5个月的时间，在嘉鱼县的珍湖上，300个职业挖藕人，每天从日出延续到日落，在中国遍布淡水湖的大省，这样场面年年上演。 今天当我们有权远离自然，享受美食的时候，最应该感谢的是这些通过劳动和智慧成就餐桌美味的人们。 Laobao is native to Zhejiang.
