又到春暖花開時(shí)，小龍蝦搶“鮮”上市。近日，資陽樂至夜市人聲鼎沸，肥美的小龍蝦占有一席之地，餐飲店內(nèi)廚師們不停忙碌，服務(wù)員來回穿梭，把一份份顏色紅亮、香氣四溢的小龍蝦端上餐桌。

As spring arrives and the weather warms, crayfish are hitting the market in full force. Recently, the night market in Lezhi, Ziyang has been bustling with activity, with plump and succulent crayfish taking center stage. Chefs in restaurants are busy working, while servers hustle back and forth, bringing dishes of brightly colored, fragrant crayfish to the tables.

“最近吃蝦的季節(jié)到了，今天專門約了幾個(gè)朋友來吃小龍蝦，味道確實(shí)不錯(cuò)，而且價(jià)格也實(shí)惠。”食客楊先生表示，小龍蝦鮮香麻辣，是朋友聚會(huì)的不二選擇。

“The crayfish season is here, and I specially gathered a few friends to enjoy it. The taste is indeed great, and the price is also affordable,” said customer Mr. Yang. He mentioned that the fragrant and spicy flavor of crayfish makes it the perfect choice for gatherings with friends.

據(jù)了解，樂至小龍蝦在早春時(shí)節(jié)成熟，蝦肉緊實(shí)、口感鮮美，價(jià)格按重量而分層浮動(dòng)，單個(gè)重量在4錢左右的小蝦，相比單個(gè)重量在7錢以上的大蝦，兩者的價(jià)差可達(dá)10元/斤。為迎合這波小龍蝦的銷售旺季，各餐飲店也做足準(zhǔn)備，相繼推出各式口味，為食客提供多樣化的味蕾享受。

Lezhi crayfish mature in early spring, offering firm meat and a delicious taste. Prices vary based on weight, with smaller crayfish weighing around 4 taels costing less than larger ones weighing over 7 taels. The price difference can be as much as 10 yuan per kilogram. To cater to the peak season for crayfish sales, many restaurants have been preparing by offering a variety of flavors, providing customers with diverse tastes to enjoy.

“從今年3月份開始，就進(jìn)入了吃小龍蝦的火爆季節(jié)，我們店采用的全是樂至本地的小龍蝦。”三妹龍蝦餐館老板羅麗君介紹稱，店里每天下午2點(diǎn)就要開始洗蝦、備菜，大約6點(diǎn)就有客人陸續(xù)到店點(diǎn)餐，每天差不多能賣出300斤左右。

“Since March this year, we’ve entered the busy season for eating crayfish, and our restaurant only uses locally sourced crayfish from Lezhi,” said Luo Lijun, the owner of Sanmei Crayfish Restaurant. She explained that the staff starts cleaning the crayfish and preparing ingredients at 2 p.m., and by 6 p.m., customers begin to arrive. On average, the restaurant sells around 300 kilograms of crayfish per day.

小龍蝦成為夜市頂流的背后離不開樂至縣對(duì)“稻蝦生態(tài)種養(yǎng)”產(chǎn)業(yè)的激發(fā)和帶動(dòng)。據(jù)統(tǒng)計(jì)，截至目前，全縣稻蝦養(yǎng)殖面積達(dá)8000余畝，平均畝產(chǎn)小龍蝦250斤，預(yù)計(jì)今年稻蝦綜合產(chǎn)值可達(dá)4800萬元。

The popularity of crayfish in the night market can be attributed to the county’s promotion of the"rice-crayfish integrated farming" industry. According to statistics, the area dedicated to rice-crayfish farming in Lezhi County has reached over 8,000 acres, with an average yield of 250 kilograms of crayfish per acre. The total value of crayfish production is expected to reach 48 million yuan in this year.
