The status symbol of the old Beijingers, bean juice with scorched circle, authentic exquisite, playing children is good this mouthful
Speaking of our Beijing snacks, everyone can say a lot, but many old Beijing snacks are evolved from Manchu and Hui snacks if they trace their roots, such as Aiwowo is a typical example, and the native Beijing snack bean juice, Beijingers are not tired of drinking
Nowadays, it is said that good medicine is bitter, but the bean juice is not bitter, but it is a bit unique, like the Beijing people are unspeakably addicted, people who don't like it are not used to drinking at all, and the reason why bean juice can become a unique bite of Beijingers is not as simple as outsiders imagine, many people think that Beijingers are heavy taste, in fact, it is not
Take Beijing's famous snack shop Jinxin snacks, Chongwen District's old neighbors are very familiar with it, Jinxin bean juice as early as the 50s in Ciqikou, although with the development of Chongwen District now moved to the north gate of the Temple of Heaven, but there are still many old Beijingers still recognize here
Legend has it that there was already old Beijing bean juice from the time of the Qing Dynasty, and Jinxin bean juice was first a Muslim surname Ding, and it is recorded that to the third generation, called Ding Derui, was sold in the West Flower Market outside Chongwen District, but there are more records that the emergence of bean juice is hundreds of years earlier than this statement
Because there was bean juice in the Song Dynasty, the Qianlong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty issued a holy edict to the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the eighteenth year of Qianlong, which means that until the Qianlong period, this bean juice directly became the imperial meal, although the bean juice entered the palace, but in terms of origin, the bean juice must be regarded as a native old Beijing snack
However, it is this bean juice that was born from the scraps, but it has become an identity card of the old Beijingers, the old Beijing dialect says that the bean juice of Beijing, the life root of the flag people, in the past, some people called the Beijing people, the bean juice mouth, collectively known as the Beijing three mouths, to put it bluntly, it is because the Beijing people, especially the old Beijingers in the flag, are proud of the bean juice
And the old Beijing bean juice is also very exquisite to drink, the hotter and thicker the better, can only suck a small mouthful, can not be directly poured, because this drink is the old Beijing drinking method, after all, the old Beijing bean juice has the effect of clearing the intestines and scraping oil, for this there are also people who say that the bean juice can only be drunk by the old Beijing nobles, and the stomach without oil and water can not drink the bean juice at all
In fact, it is not, a mouth of Beijing, two sentences and two yellows, three meals of good food, four seasons of clothing, this is the past to prove that they are not the four standards of Beijing natives, Jia Cuisine to put it bluntly is not to see how much it is worth, because we Beijingers pay attention to taste, and bean juice can just meet the beijingers' good
In addition, old Beijing also has the saying that everyone is equal in front of the bean juice, in the past, everyone could sit at a table and drink the bean juice together, there was no distinction between high and low
Therefore, it can be seen that the old Beijing bean juice is endlessly charming, every few days do not drink will worry about this mouthful, pickle shreds and scorched circle, this is the perfect match for old Beijingers to drink bean juice, drink bean juice to pay attention to hot, and jiaohuan has played a crispy crisp, but jiaohuan and pickles are supporting roles
The taste of the protagonist's bean juice is not right, good or not to drink is the most critical, after the bean juice should pay attention to the side of the bowl when drinking, can not be as thin as the bean juice and fried liver, mung beans pay attention to the use of good, can not use small particles, the old Beijingers call it iron beans, this bean can not have, the beans should be less, must be full of particles, bright to become
Bean juice: As the name suggests, it is to use beans as raw materials, but to make mung beans into authentic bean juice also needs a very important process, that is, to mix with the clear soup left by the last bean juice, because it already has acid bacteria in it, blend it in, and then ferment, fermentation is not successful, directly affecting the taste of bean juice
It seems simple, but it is not easy, because one of the most critical conditions affecting fermentation is temperature, which is not controllable by man, and the fermented bean juice can not be directly on the table, it also needs to face another process, that is, boiling, the boiled bean juice cauldron is not an ordinary cauldron, because there is another mystery here
The general old pot is single-layered, precipitated easy to paste the bottom of the pot, simply put, because the bean juice in the boiling process, there will be some okara, if stuck to the bottom of the pot will cause the paste pot, so a pot of bean juice is even wasted, so many of the old stores in Beijing are designed to be inside and outside the two layers, in the sandwich layer filled with water, heated with water temperature, so that you can avoid the risk of paste pot
And in the process of boiling, not only the heating seen, but also a process of seasoning, gradually mixing the raw juice, stirring the raw juice, looking at the consistency, after careful boiling, the hot bean juice can be served on the table
Although the bean juice of old Beijing looks ordinary, it is an authentic Beijing cuisine that has been passed down from hundreds of years to the present, and it has become a status symbol for Beijing city and Beijingers
Some people complained that the old Beijing bean juice is too difficult to drink, no soy milk is delicious, here I have to say that these two eating is not the same thing at all, and the bean juice itself is actually a food that caters to the taste of Beijing's indigenous people, so it is normal to drink unaccustomed
Traditional old Beijing snacks, only old Beijingers can taste its Beijing flavor, which may be a strange smell in the eyes of outsiders, but in the eyes of Beijingers, bean juice is inseparable from Beijingers, and Beijingers are also inseparable from bean juice!
