The ancients had clouds: "one side of the water and soil to support the other side of the people", so every place has the food culture and habits of each place, and there are often local food outsiders but can not eat the phenomenon. Guangxi is located in the south of China, while the northeast is located in the north, and the two are far apart. It is reasonable to say that the diet of the two provinces will be very different, but in fact, there are many similarities in taste and eating method.
Eat rice
In addition to eating pasta in the northeast, you will also eat rice, and compared to other areas in the north, the northeast is a place where rice is more eaten. Therefore, for Guangxi people who grew up eating rice, they did not feel that there was a big gap in diet when they went to the local area.
pickle
Northeasterners like to eat kimchi, and there are also many varieties of spicy cabbage, pickled cucumbers, pickled sauerkraut and so on. It is sour and appetizing to eat, and it is consumed under the meal. Guangxi people also love to eat sour food because of the climate, and almost every family in the countryside will pickle acid themselves. What pickle heads, sauerkraut, sour ginger, sour taro seedlings, etc., are simply the favorites in the summer.
Dumplings/dumplings
There are many dumplings in the northeast, such as sauerkraut pork filling, leek egg filling, cabbage pork filling, carrot corn filling, etc. Although Guangxi rarely eats noodles, the dumplings made with rice look similar to dumplings and eat the same way.
Cold noodles/sour powder
I like to eat the cold noodles of the northeast, especially in summer, which is cool and delicious, sour and spicy and appetizing. In Guangxi, in the summer, I also like to eat sour powder, and the cold mix powder after adding spices is sour, spicy and delicious, refreshing and tempting.
Pot wrapped meat / sweet and sour ribs
The wonderful thing about pot bun meat is that it is wrapped in a layer of sweet and sour sauce, which is very popular in the Northeast. Guangxi also likes sweet and sour tastes, and the common sweet and sour ribs and sweet and sour fish are typical of dishes.
Pig killing dish
Pig-killing dishes are a major feature of the Northeast diet, which is made of pork bones, pork belly, pig blood sausage, etc. together with sauerkraut. The taste is rich and delicious, and the taste is even more exquisite when dipped in sauce. There are also pig-killing dishes in Guangxi, but the pig-killing dishes in Guangxi are not a "big mess stew", but the meat of various parts of the pig is made into multiple different dishes.
blood sausage
Northeast blood sausage is made by pouring pork and pig blood into the pig intestine together, and the taste is delicious and soft, which is very delicious. Guangxi, on the other hand, also has blood sausages, made of glutinous rice and pig blood. Although there will be a slight difference in taste, the way to eat it is similar.
Cake/horse rolling
Cake is a special pastry of the Northeast Korean ethnic group, steamed with glutinous rice and repeatedly pounded, will add bean paste, cooked bean noodles, eat soft and sticky sweet, do not taste. In Guangxi, there are similar pastries called Ma Da Roll, and the raw materials used are basically the same, so the taste is similar.
Dried squid/dried squid
There are dried Ming tai fish in the northeast, which is delicious and can be boiled in soup or mixed with food, and some locals even eat it raw. In the coastal cities of Guangxi, they also like to eat dried seafood, but not Mingtai fish, but squid. Guangxi's dried squid is of good quality and delicious taste, and is deeply loved by people.
Ballast porridge/polenta
The large ballast porridge in the northeast is mainly made with corn ballast, which is rich in flavor and sweet and refreshing. There are also many places in southern Guangxi that like to drink polenta, mostly boiled with corn flour or fine corn ballast and rice, the same aromatic and sweet, refreshing and appetizing.
Eat dog meat
Northeast Koreans like to eat dog meat, common dog meat soup rice, and Guangxi Yulin, is also famous for eating dog meat. Although many people are now resisting this behavior, it has to be said that there are very similar eating habits between the two places.
Guangxi and Northeast China are far apart, but there are so many similarities in diet, why is this?
