The amount of water in the pot depends on the size of the dog. When burning a fire, use strong fire first, and then gradually reduce the firepower after the water in the pot boils; The trick is to master that the dog meat begins to rot as soon as it is cooked, and the water in the pot has just boiled dry. Third, pay attention to seasoning, mainly by adding salt at the right time, adding ingredients at the right time and sprinkling a small amount of rice wine at the right time. The dog meat stewed by Xinquan people is full of flavor and mouth-watering. After eating it, you will feel the smell of dog meat and there will be a warm current around you. According to legend, Sibaoyang tofu has a history of more than 300 years. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the woodcut printing industry in Bao Si was very prosperous. Because fried food is easy to get angry, printers who work day and night pay attention to clearing heart and moistening stomach, nourishing yin and nourishing yuan. Tofu culture has a long history in Bao Si. It uses China's unique (Mayyellow) beans as the main raw materials, and cooked soybean milk and cooked gypsum are used to make white tofu. Seasonings should be carefully selected from fresh lean pork and tender beef without fascia, and a little red mushrooms, mushrooms and onions should be chopped into fresh meat sauce for stuffing. Take the minced meat balls and stuff them into the fresh tofu blocks that are square inches long and pecked into holes with your little finger. After the pig in the pot is fried, gently put the tofu with meat stuffing up into the pot, add fresh chicken soup and sprinkle a little black lobster sauce, simmer until it is cooked, and uncover the lid. Only the tofu in the pot turns yellow and white, which seems to be shaking in the slow fire. Sprinkle a little pepper and chopped green onion at this time, and when the soup is completely put away by tofu, you can taste it (while it is hot). That dish of tofu, with light yellow in white, seems to be shaking, called (overflowing tofu).
