Sources
- The Farmers' Daily report of 1 November 2021 (Zhou Hanwei), reprinted by the People's Political Consultative Daily, names 火麻汤 with hemp-seed oil and congee as everyday Bama dishes.
- The 1980 nutrition survey (Acta Academiae Medicinae Zhongshan 1(4): 383–390) describes the seed as the county's customary oil crop (p. 384) and its preparation as a milky liquid for cooking vegetables (p. 385). It does not use the name 火麻汤.
- Brand and Zhao (2017) mention Bama's reputation for hemp seed as a longevity food.
Is it cannabis?
- The 1980 survey identifies 火麻仁 provisionally as Cannabis sativa L. and gives its fatty-acid analysis.
Kind and plant part
- Dish. Seed.
- First recorded: no year is given. The 1980 survey describes the preparation of the seed for cooking but not the soup by name.
- Still made: yes (2021 report).
- The survey describes the elderly people of five communes of the county; it does not name their ethnic groups, so no people is given.
- The health and longevity claims in the 2021 report are left out: they are promotional and not about the dish.
