Does anyone know that Guizhou Xingyi Jiuzhuo is fried into white round pieces and the slices are very crispy?

I have just written about fried food in an issue, and I am still not satisfied. Among the delicacies found in the streets and alleys across Guizhou, it seems that a few more items need to be added to make it complete.

Tofu dumplings

First, there are two things related to tofu -

One is tofu dumplings, a famous snack in Guiyang. As the name suggests, tofu is crushed into balls the size of ping pong balls, boiled in oil, fried until crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, cut open and stuffed with seasonings such as bitter garlic, spicy peppercorns, folded ear root, pickled radish and so on. , adds more flavor. The most famous one in this city is the "Lei Family", which continues to this day.

But it is much more than just this "home" when it is made with care and done well. For example, on the road leading from the side door of the Provincial Hospital to the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, there is an unknown shop where the ingredients used are all delicious. good. But one thing you need to remember is that if you eat it while it's hot, put it in a plastic bag and take it home and reheat it, it won't have that tender and tender feeling.

Nowadays, many hotels also prepare for this. They arrange the dishes solemnly and walk all the way into the private room. They are not in a hurry to serve the table. When it is placed and the round table is turned to you, it will be cold. After eating most of it, there is nothing left to eat. And this is also the reason why snacks are not suitable for serving on the table, but it is not that the food of the peddlers and lackeys cannot be seen in the big scene, but that the pretentious style must lack the interest of the countryside and the market, and it is really not suitable to "match the other." ".

Fried stinky tofu

The second day is fried stinky tofu. Fry the slightly stinky square tofu in a large pot. After the pot is boiled, put it into a large bowl, cut three times and two times, and cut it into small pieces. Stir in seasonings similar to tofu dumplings, but must It is essential to add sweet sauce and balsamic vinegar, put it into a bowl, and it is ready to eat. When I was a kid, the restaurant I ate at most was the fried stinky tofu in Sanbanqiao at the entrance of Hanxiang Street, a shabby roadside stall. I encountered it a few years ago, but I don't know if it still exists. If it does, it probably has changed hands long ago.

Fried Chicken Cake

There is another fried food from Anshun that I have a special liking for, namely fried chicken cake. The so-called chicken cake is not the kind of sweet food in our general sense. My friend Anshi Brother once wrote an article introducing it, which is copied below:

Fried chicken cake is originated from Anshun Zhenning, and the production process is a bit like It is a kind of "earth sandwich": rice and soybeans are first made to swell, then mixed with rice and vermicelli powder, then pounded into a paste, put into a metal hexagonal mold to the halfway point, and then start filling in the green onions set aside. Meat filling, continue filling until full. After the preparation is completed, place the mold with a long handle into a hot oil pan and fry until golden brown and take out.

Before eating, you can choose between flat chicken cake and whole chicken cake according to the requirements of the diners. The flat chicken cake is made by crushing the golden cake body into a flat shape, then pouring chili sauce and folded root and eating it with a bowl of hot soy milk; the prototype chicken cake can be served by diners with the spicy sauce and mixed folded root in a small bowl. Inside, after the deep-fried chicken cake is served on a plate, he slowly tears open the skin and stuffs the contents inside. I love both flat and archetypal ones, and I often want both to enjoy them. The flattened one is crispy and chewy, while the prototype is crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, soft, warm and has a long aftertaste. To sum up, the crispy shell is browned, the inner flesh is snow-white, the green onions are green, the soy sauce is slightly brown, and the color and aroma are excellent.

Fried Chicken Cake

The first time I went to Anshun to eat fried chicken cake, a local friend also led the way. I got up early, walked around the streets, and found a dilapidated shanty. Waiting for the first pot to explode. Once you have eaten it, you can’t forget it. You must eat it every time you go. It’s similar to fried stinky tofu and tofu dumplings. It needs to be eaten while it's hot. Once it's hot enough, it won't taste the same.

Fried cakes and fried dough sticks

I once worked in the National Socialist Society, and for a few years I had to go to Beijing on duty from time to time. The breakfast at the headquarters is monotonous and boring. The only acceptable options are soy milk with fried cakes and fried dough sticks, and soy milk with pancakes and fruits. Fried pancakes and fried dough sticks are not much different in the way people in the north make them than in the south, except that they are fried in advance and put on a big plate. From hand to mouth, it was wilted and soft, neither crispy nor hot, so there was really no way to eat it.

You must know that Chinese people pay attention to freshness in their diet, not only the source of the ingredients is fresh, but also the production process. Only when you understand this can you get started.
