Where is the best mutton soup in China?

There is no recognized best drink, only what you think is the best.

I nominate Luoyang mutton soup. I worked in Luoyang for half a year before and spent almost every morning with mutton soup. The mutton soup in Luoyang is delicious and spicy, especially refreshing in winter. And it's cheap. The cheapest price of 20 16 is only 5 yuan for a bowl, and a cake is also given.

Drinking soup has become a lingering habit of Luoyang people. Luoyang people occasionally go out to travel for a week or two, and their greatest wish is to come back early and drink a bowl of steaming soup. In Jianxi and Xigong, many people drive to the Hedong Flower Bed and Tiexie in Jin Meng early in the morning and go back and forth for more than an hour, just to drink a bowl of authentic beef soup and mutton soup and enjoy it day after day.

Usually it is simmered every night and sold until the next morning. The boss put a large number of broken sheep bones into a cauldron nearly one person deep and 2 meters in diameter, and added water and homemade spices. After the soup is boiled, simmer it all night. In this way, the bone marrow and collagen in sheep bones are boiled into the soup. Mutton stew is also very particular. Large pieces of mutton and mutton are killed and cooked now to ensure freshness. In a large bowl with a capacity of more than 1000 ml, grab one or two large pieces of mutton and pour them into the boiling soup, which is fragrant. The local people like to soak the hard "pot helmet" in the soup. The hard pot helmet fully absorbs the soup in the bowl and chews it carefully. Of course, the more you chew, the more "beautiful" (Luoyang dialect). Mutton soup is only sold in the morning, because mutton soup at this time can be described as "whole".

I hope you can try the local sheep/beef soup when you go to Luoyang. It is really necessary!

Shanxian mutton soup is also highly recommended. Shan County is located in Heze City, Shandong Province, with a personal color. I feel that Beifeng mutton soup is better, but after eating it so many times, I only feel that Shanxian mutton soup has made the taste I want, so I went to know about this mutton soup specially. Shanxian mutton soup was first founded by people with three surnames in 1807. It seems that these three families are all surnamed Xu, Dou and Zhou, so the store was originally named Sanyichun Mutton Restaurant. At that time, the establishment of this mutton restaurant in Shandong caused great repercussions in the catering industry at that time, and also paved the way for the famous mutton soup in Shan County, which can be said to be a good start.

From "Sanyichun" to Shanxian mutton soup now, it has experienced nearly 200 years of history. Because of its unique style of "white as milk, blending water and oil, pure texture, fresh but not smelly, fragrant but not greasy, rotten but not sticky", it has been included in Chinese famous recipes. Moreover, in China, after so long, only Shanxian mutton soup and soup have entered the famous recipes in China.

The fame of Shanxian mutton soup can not be separated from the good environment here, because there are plenty of sunshine and trees here, so it is also conducive to the growth of plants here. The climate is biased towards the temperate monsoon climate, which is relatively humid, so a very natural pasture has been formed here. The mutton here is very good and tender, and you can't eat it anywhere else.

The key point is that Shanxian mutton soup is not a kind of mutton soup, but according to the continuous research and development of chefs here, there are now 72 kinds of mutton soup in Shanxian county, which are very particular about their practices and tastes. I certainly don't regret eating it, and I have a feeling of hating myself for not being a local. When you eat here, you can do a small experiment. After the mutton soup is ready, hit a flower in the pot with a spoon, then scoop it down and drop a drop on the table. If it condenses, it means it's the best mutton soup. Shanxian mutton soup, never regret drinking it.
