Recently addicted to the ancient style • martial arts • jianghu • confidant • TV series "Mountain and River Order" can not extricate themselves, the strength of the momentum has allowed me from the plot to the beginning of the study of the life of the two male protagonists, not to mention, there are really discoveries -
Gong Jun, played by Wen Kexing, one of the two male protagonists in the play, is a native of Chengdu, Sichuan, and the promotion ambassador of wild Chengdu egg baked cake. When you are all attracted to the handsome man's appearance and flesh, I just want to wear the egg cake in his hand.
"My favorite", four words are simple and clear, and the feelings are sincere. Here to explain, "three cow flavor" is the "black words" of Chengdu people when eating egg baked cakes, referring to shredded beef, beef grains, beef floss:

I think you can't help but ask a simple and sincere question in your heart at this moment: how delicious is the egg baked cake?
Although in the hearts of Chengdu friends, egg baked cake is egg baked cake, by no means whose "low match" or "high match", let alone the "meal replacement" of which kind of snack, but in order to reduce the difficulty of everyone's understanding, please allow me to simply try to summarize:
To some extent, egg baking cake ≈ egg cubs + meat sandwich steamed bun + pancake fruit.
Unlike many northern snacks, a big name of "Qianlong Hand-picked" and "Cixi Loves to Eat" is forcibly deducted, and the story about the origin of egg baking cake is quite grounded:
It is said that more than a hundred years ago, in the Daoguang years of the late Qing Dynasty, next to the Stone Chamber Academy on Wenmiao Street in Chengdu, an old man surnamed Shi shi was inspired by the "aunt feast" made by children, so he mixed eggs, fermented flour and an appropriate amount of brown sugar together, and then slowly roasted them in a copper pot.
After baking, the egg baked cake is like a round and golden full moon, folded in half, and becomes a crescent again. The crust is slightly thicker in the middle, the egg is rich and fluffy, and the edges are thin and crispy, making a little crackling sound when bitten.
There is reason to suspect that egg baking cake may be regarded as the originator of desserts, and the "net red" crepes, egg ries, etc. that have become popular after that are all juniors.

However, don't look at just a small one, it is not so easy to make a "qualified egg baked cake". Where the soul is, of course, is the small copper pot that does not look amazing.
The pot is made of copper, about 8 cm in diameter, the center of the pot is slightly convex, and it is connected to a long handle bent with iron wire, with a lid that is also plated to polish, and the river and lake about the egg baking cake are between this square inch.

Watching the stall owners make egg baking cakes is even more of a treat:
Three or four small pots are placed in front of you at the same time, the requirements of the surrounding circle of people are different, but the mother-in-law who can make egg baking cakes has no messy hands, first burn the pot out of a beautiful purple color, skillfully pour a spoonful of batter, without weighing to know that the portion is just right. Turn it back and forth twice, cover the pot, and when the crust is baked amber, fill it with the filling, fold it in half with a clip, and bake it on the stove to get out of the pan!
Several small pots are replaced, sold now, mass-produced, flowing in the clouds, flying up and down, dazzling people, hooking the population.

The fragrant crust is ready, and in front of you at this moment is a permutation of "egg baked cake filling matching".
But even the best mathematicians probably can't figure out how many results there are. Because, too much...

At first, it was just simple sugar, peanut sesame candy or pickle minced meat, but now, even the most inconspicuous small stalls have to start with more than a dozen kinds:
Want to eat sweet, cream, soybean flour, bean paste, chocolate, condensed milk, strawberry jam, blueberry sauce, sesame sugar, peanut butter, assorted eight treasures, date raisins, durian, minnez; want to eat salty, meat pine, old dry mother, capers, pickled cowpeas, green pepper shreds, shredded potatoes, ham, sprouts squeezed vegetable dregs, spicy beef, kelp shreds...
Only you can't think of it, no stall can't do it, and since then the dispute between the north and the south has ended, and the sweet and salty party has shook hands and made peace.
▲ Certification from Chengdu er
The most important thing is that the above ingredients that look very conflicting can also be mixed and customized. It is not full of fundamentalist insistence like Tianjin pancake fruit, but in a more open attitude, respecting all the strange and unique "egg baked cake taste aesthetics".
For example, my Chengdu friend strongly told me that she had her love - condensed milk with shredded potatoes, emmm... Is there will be can't help but wonder if she wants to whole my degree.
▲ "It looks like an incredible combination, but it tastes amazing"
In order to prevent everyone from overturning in too fanciful attempts, and to save those who are in the advanced stage of selection difficulties, here is a "classic matching guide for egg baked cakes" from Chengdu natives:
1. Salad + meat floss
The basics that can't go wrong. The salad dressing is relatively refreshing, the meat floss is slightly salty, and when put together, it is a bit similar to the feeling of the meat floss shellfish.

2. Cream + meat floss
Classics within classics, those who have eaten are all good! Although it is a "sweet and salty mix", the cream is more fluffy and more existential, and a bite is a happy heat bomb.

3. Old dry mother + shredded potatoes
Old dry mother still use more to say, the famous universal seasoning, there is nothing that a spoonful of old dry mother can not save. Shredded potatoes are blanched in advance, unsourced, crisp and refreshing, the two are quite a bit of "light makeup is always appropriate" meaning, 1 + 1>2.

4. Pickled cowpea + sprouts + meat residue
A representative of the authentic "Sichuan flavor". "Meat residue" is meat foam, pickled cowpea pickled sour and spicy, capital crisp, sprouts are also more common in Sichuan, chew crisp, slightly sweet ~

5. Spicy beef shoko
The beef foam is particularly fragrant, the oil is moist and not too much to make a living, it is very sufficient, and the spicy is the finishing touch, and the soft egg baked cake crust is simply perfect.

In addition, different stalls have their own "exclusive recipes" and "hidden menus" that you need to unlock slowly.
"Why is the egg baking cake such a wonderful snack that has not yet left Chengdu", it is a common complaint of my friends in Chengdu: "Since graduating and coming to Beijing, I have not eaten egg baked cake for three years." ”
▲ The hearer shed tears, and the seeer was sad
It is also strange to say that In recent years, Sichuan cuisine has the potential to occupy the whole country, from butter hot pot to skewers, bowls of chicken, and even ice powder, scribes, and dumplings as snacks, even in the food desert of Beijing, you can eat shops that make people feel "not bad" and "have a little meaning".
The production of egg baked cakes that are also not complicated, away from Chengdu, whether it is the old first-tier city north, Guangzhou, shenzhen, or the new first-line Hangzhou Changsha Xi'an, all of them! not! Yes!
How can this be?
Irresponsible guessing, may be because a stall has to prepare more than a dozen or twenty kinds of sauces and ingredients, it is too troublesome; it may also be because in fact, it does not make much money, just barely make ends meet, to maintain life, after all, egg baking cakes are often the most infested places, is the school gate, students do not have much pocket money, egg baking cakes have been separated for so many years, and only from a few cents to a few dollars.
Whenever I was a child, whenever I was out of school, I always had to wait for my parents to pick up the "time difference", looking around in front of various food stalls, until one day, a car covered with glass appeared, several small coal stove pots, a bowl with sweet and salty fillings, and the hot aroma of the pot just came out of the pot firmly grasped your stomach, and you couldn't move your legs.

The children who eat egg baked cakes at the school gate have grown up, the coal stove has become a gas stove, the cart has become a storefront, and now it has become a symbol of everyone's memory of childhood and hometown.
Fortunately, most of the restaurants are still there, waiting for you to start a taste-seeking journey on the tip of your tongue.
