We usually buy fresh swallows when we buy their own skin. The fresh swallows are wet and soft. They can be eaten directly when we buy them. It's very convenient to cook egg swallow noodles or pack meat swallows . But if it's for delivery, you have to buy Dried swallow skin. Because fresh swallow can't be mailed. It's easy to deteriorate.

Cooking tips:Note - another way to eat swallows is to shred them. They are cooked like noodles. The cooked one is called Yanmian. The smooth and crispy taste will make you feel different noodle taste. However, it's a luxury to cook Yanmian with shredded dried yanpi. People in Fuzhou usually buy fresh Yansi in the shop selling yanpi. That is to say, the leftover material of dried yanpi is used to cook Yanmian at home. When using the dried swallow skin, it is inevitable that there will be some broken swallow skin. When cooking the meat swallow at the end, put them together in the pot to boil. Don't throw it away. There are skills in making delicious dishes.
