1. What is the function of bamboo tendons?
There are four common varieties of lucky bamboo, namely golden heart lucky bamboo, silver heart lucky bamboo, silver edge lucky bamboo, and golden edge lucky bamboo.
(1) Golden heart lucky bamboo: As the name suggests, this variety has stripes in the center, which are generally golden yellow, but some can also appear greenish yellow. In addition to the difference in appearance, the plants of this variety are generally stronger and grow better than others. Moreover, its leaf color is also different from other varieties, being dark green.
(2) Silver heart lucky bamboo: The overall difference between this variety and the first one is not particularly large. The only more obvious difference is the color of the stripes in the center of the leaves. “Silver heart” naturally refers to the silvery-white longitudinal stripes.
(3) Silver edge lucky bamboo: “Silver edge” refers to the edge of the leaf. Their edges have obvious silvery-white longitudinal stripes, which are very wide and very conspicuous. It is also a very popular variety.
(4) Golden-edged lucky bamboo: Overall, its appearance is very similar to the third type. There is also a difference, that is, the edges of the leaves are golden yellow.
2. Tendon bamboo bonsai
Generally, there is an odd number, not an even number.
Guanyin bamboo, also known as tendon bamboo, belongs to the palm family (palmae), genus Bamboo. It is native to southern my country and prefers a warm, humid and well-ventilated environment. It is not cold-resistant and is often propagated by division. Its bamboo is tall and straight, and its leaves are beautiful and fan-shaped. It is beautiful and elegant, suitable for decorating guest rooms and can also be used to make exquisite bonsai. It is also considered a plant that can bring wealth, but you need to be careful about the number.
Generally, there is an odd number, not an even number. It depends on whether you want to shape a pagoda. An odd number of roots and an odd number of layers is best. If you do not shape it and only plant a few roots, then 9 roots are used, representing the highest level.
For lucky bamboo and Guanyin bamboo, 4 branches represent the top scorer in academic examinations.
Lucky bamboo belongs to the wood element, which is associated with the Five Elements. Therefore, the number of lucky bamboos planted should be a single-digit number, such as 2, 7, 12, or 17, which represent the fire element. This symbolizes the radiance of wood and fire, representing the wisdom and Wenchang luck of the benefactor.
The Meaning of Three Guanyin Bamboos
The Tao Te Ching states, “One begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things.” Therefore, three is a yang number, generally representing all yang. The hexagram it represents is Qian, the Eight Trigrams, symbolizing the heavens.
According to folklore, one summer in ancient times, a wicked dragon wreaked havoc, stirring up storms and raging floods. These floods submerged farmland and villages, drowning people and livestock. The people, devastated by the floods, hoped for divine protection and salvation. The kindness of the people moved Guanyin Bodhisattva, who descended upon a cloud. First, she lowered a large bell from heaven, trapped the evil dragon inside, and cast it into a deep pool, forever forbidding it from wreaking havoc. Then, she cast down a bamboo branch, which she used to sweep away the floodwaters. The branch then took root in the soil, slowly growing into a bamboo forest. The bamboo forest conserves water and soil, protects the embankments, regulates the climate, and protects the people from the harm of floods. To commemorate Guanyin Bodhisattva’s grace, people call this bamboo Guanyin bamboo. In feng shui, Guanyin bamboo is considered an auspicious object. Planting or placing it on a balcony can ward off evil spirits and ensure peace in the home. Those lacking soil should choose herbaceous plants (in a small pot). Guanyin bamboo, which remains green year-round and symbolizes peace, is a prime choice. 3. What does a tendon mean? A donkey’s kidneys, spleen, and reproductive organs are all considered large. Is the “Wankou” actually meat? It just tastes like a tendon, and nutritionally speaking, it’s about the same.
4. Tendon Bamboo Pictures
The inflorescences are axillary, about 30 cm long, with small, pale yellow flowers, numerous, unisexual, and dioecious. The base of each peduncle and branched inflorescence is enclosed by a single spathe, densely covered with brown, curly hairs. The inflorescences are 2-3 branched, with 1-2 sub-branched spikelets. The flower branches are nearly glabrous, and the flowers are spirally borne on the branches.
The male flowers are ovate-oblong with an apex when in bud. The corolla tube elongates at maturity, becoming clavate-oblong in bloom, 5-6mm long. The calyx is cup-shaped, deeply 3-lobed, with semi-ovate lobes. The corolla is 3-lobed, with triangular lobes. The filaments are thick, swollen at the top with a keel. The anthers are cordate or cordate-oblong, with a blunt or slightly emarginate apex. The female flowers are short and thick, 4mm long.
5. How to Make Tasty Tendons
I personally prefer beef ribs. As for which is better, beef ribs or oxtail ribs, it depends on your needs.
Pork ribs nourish the spleen and replenish qi; pig tails are rich in collagen and are good for beauty. For a strong body, pork ribs are better. There’s a big difference between beef bone soup and oxtail soup. Oxtail soup is rich in collagen, and its overall nutritional profile is more suitable for lactating mothers (I’m not sure if it helps with milk production, as it’s difficult to buy oxtails in southern China, and when we do, we cherish them and devour them with relish, haha). However, the nutritional profile of beef bone and tendon is not as good, with less collagen, and the cartilage tissue in the buttocks isn’t as rich as in the oxtail. It also doesn’t have the same muscle fibers and myosin content, so it’s really not a suitable substitute.
6. Nutritional value of tendons
Ingredients
Main ingredients: 200g white radish, 200g carrots, 75g rehydrated sea cucumber, 50g fish maw, 50g chicken, 50g ham, 50g pork tripe, 50g pork heart, 50g chicken gizzards, 250g yellow-skinned potatoes, 100g green beans, 50g winter bamboo shoots,
Supplementary ingredients: 25g fresh shiitake mushrooms, 25g shrimp,
Seasoning: 15g cooking wine, 1g salt, 1g pepper, 2g pea starch, 15g lard, 5g scallions, 5g ginger
Instructions
1. Remove the skin of the chicken gizzards and cut into slices. Place in a bowl with the shrimp. Add 5g cooking wine, salt, pepper, and dry starch and mix well.
2. Remove the tendons and cut off the waist of the green beans. Peel and wash the white radish, carrots, and potatoes, then cut all the other ingredients into 5cm long, 1cm square strips.
3. Blanch the sea cucumber, fish maw, and shiitake mushrooms separately in boiling water and remove from the heat. Add the potatoes, green beans, and winter bamboo shoots to the wok and fry briefly.
4. Place the wok over medium heat, add the cooked lard, add the ginger and scallions, and stir-fry until they turn a rich yellow. Then add 10 grams of cooking wine.
7. How to Care for Tendon Bamboo
A single Guanyin bamboo can be grown.
Growing a single Guanyin bamboo in water symbolizes Tianyi as water, and Guanyin bamboo itself symbolizes attracting wealth. Therefore, choosing a single Guanyin bamboo plant is a good omen and is easy to care for.
However, when keeping Guanyin bamboo at home, it’s best to keep three, as this represents good luck and prosperity. While there’s no scientific basis for this claim, from an ornamental perspective, keeping three bamboos is highly valuable.
8. What is a tendon?
Carp have a white, thread-like tendon inside their skin. This tendon must be removed before cooking.
Firstly, it has a strong fishy smell, and secondly, it’s a strong irritant (commonly known as a “hair-inducing food”), especially for certain patients.
To remove a tendon, make a horizontal cut on one side of the fish, just behind the gills and about an inch from the tail, extending all the way to the spine. Then, use a knife to tap horizontally from the tail toward the head to release the tendon from the cut behind the gills. Pinch the tendon with your fingertips and pull to remove it. Repeat the same method to remove the tendon on the other side.
The method is very simple: Cut the fish open, remove the gills, and clean it. Make a cut under each gill, and also make a cut on each side of the tail. A thin white tendon will be visible in the cut under the gills. Hold the tendon with two fingers, and gently pat the fish with your other hand. The tendon will be easily removed.
After removing one side, repeat the same method for the other side.

Step 9
Beat the beef until it becomes meat paste. At this time, the gelatin of the beef has not yet come out (if the meat paste is not fine enough, you can mince it a few more times
Step 10
Pour the beef out and pour it into a slightly larger cooking bowl. Use your hands (or use an electric egg beater to beat the meat paste until it becomes firm) to mince the meat. If there are tendons in the meat, you can pick them out. This way, the finished product will be smoother. I don’t mind, so I didn’t pick them out. This way, the finished product will taste more chewy.
Step 11
At this time, you can pour it into the pot first, turn off the heat after it reaches 80 degrees. Start squeezing meatballs
Step 12
After squeezing out all the meat paste, you can turn the stove back on.
Step 13
When the meatballs float to a boil, they are cooked. Use a net spoon to skim off any foam during the cooking process. I tried one beforehand and it was full of beef flavor and very fragrant.
Step 14
Dish out and put into the ice water you prepared in advance (I froze some ice cubes in advance). This step will make the beef balls more chewy and refreshing.

We practiced various movements under the guidance of the instructor. Although we were tired and sweating, we also had a lot of fun. Forget the tiredness and laugh heartily. The one-day military training ended quickly and everyone looked very happy. However, on the fifth day, the situation was not like the previous few days. The instructor increased the intensity of the training and was more strict with us. The students were all sweating profusely, and they were complaining one after another. But the instructor said to us: “Compared with you, our military training is more tiring and stricter, but we did not complain, we persevered, and worked hard.

I am not your nephew.” After I hung up the lantern, my uncle explained to me: “If a nephew holds a lantern, who else can it shine on if not his uncle?
