Life Tips

Everyone knows that the formation of bird's nest comes from the saliva of swallows, which is called Bird's Nest in English. However, not all bird's nests can be eaten. Generally, bird's nests built under the eaves of houses cannot be eaten. Only the bird's nest built by the petite swiftlet is edible. This bird's nest produced by the swiftlet is a specialty of Asia. Almost all Chinese people know "bird's nest". Most bird's nests come from Southeast Asia such as Indonesia, Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam, and some extremely dangerous cliffs and caves on the southern sea. Wild swiftlets use local materials when building nests, pick up seaweed plants from the seaside and use them to build nests. After dozens of minutes, its strong saliva will condense all the nesting materials, and then form pieces of bird's nests that are shaped like bowls and have extremely high economic value. Because of its high economic value and profit, the poor people living in the local area will try their best to climb the cliffs to obtain wild bird's nests in exchange for money, so there have been many unfortunate incidents of falling to the bottom of the cliff. Later, some Indonesian businessmen built bird's nest houses to invite swallows to build nests, which reduced the unfortunate incidents of bird's nest collection. However, not every bird's nest house can attract swiftlets to build nests. The older generation said that only those who are blessed can attract swiftlets to build nests in their bird's nest houses, and only then can bird's nests be collected! So judging by the location of the nests, bird's nests can be divided into cave bird's nests (rock bird's nests) and house bird's nests. The former, because they are wild, will have more impurities when processed, but they taste crispy when eaten. The latter, because the swallows build their nests in artificially constructed bird's nest houses, are cleaner, and a lot of trouble can be saved when processing the bird's nests of house bird's nests, while the bird's nests of bird's nest houses taste smoother and softer.
