There is a traditional snack in the north called donkey rolling, is a good memory of many people when they were young, donkey rolling in the northeast, Beijing, Tianjin are very popular, the main ingredients are rhubarb rice noodles, soybean noodles, sugar, sesame oil, etc., which add bean filling, soft glutinous Q bomb into the mouth, up to eighty-year-old people down to one-year-old children, are loved.
There are two different theories about the origin of the donkey rolling, one is that a eunuch called the little donkey carried a new snack made by the imperial kitchen to Empress Dowager Cixi to eat, did not expect to accidentally fall into the soybean noodles, the result of Cixi felt that the taste was good, it spread, the second is the Qianlong period, Xiangfei because she missed her hometown and tea and rice did not think, Qianlong prepared many special snacks hoping that Xiangfei liked, and Xiangfei's husband also took the opportunity to offer the rice dumplings that Xiangfei loved to eat, after seeing the Rice Dumplings, Xiangfei finally smiled, so this snack was also famous.
Why is the name donkey rolling, mainly because the surface of the snack to be wrapped in cooked soybean noodles, like a donkey rolling in the soil, some places stove is rare, and named horse rolling, in fact, the taste is similar, donkey rolling method is very simple, small partners themselves can do at home. First use glutinous rice flour with sugar and warm water to knead into a dough, then steam for fifteen minutes, steam the steamed glutinous rice dumplings out and heat them, spread the soybean noodles to spread the glutinous rice dumplings, and then wrap them with bean filling, roll up the glutinous rice skin, and then cut into small pieces to eat, is it very simple?
Nowadays, we can eat delicious donkey rolling all over the country, we also found one in the rural market in Linyi, Shandong, this shop has no storefront, it is just a small stall, the boss is a couple, on the market day will ride a tricycle to come to the stall, a simple table, with donkey rolling on it, there are two flavors of white glutinous rice and purple fragrant rice, which are thick bean paste, all of which are made by hand at home.
In addition to donkey rolling, there is Also Shandong Rice Cake, which is called differently in various parts of Shandong, and is also made of rice, which is a layer of red dates and a layer of raisins, full of dry goods, a mouthful of soft glutinous and a mouthful of sweetness, which is really rich in taste and makes people feel sweet. Layer by layer is also 9 yuan a pound, how much you want to weigh, give you two bamboo sticks, poke yourself with rice cakes, while walking while eating is particularly comfortable.
Personally, I still like this donkey roll the most, like a thousand-layer roll, wrapped in thick cooked soybean noodles, it looks very tempting, after wrapping the soybean noodles is not sticky at all, but eat the mouth QQ bullet, like jelly, gelatinous texture, and moderate sweetness, not the kind of only sweet taste, can eat the kind of sticky rice flavor and bean flavor, several tastes are fused together, a bite of a small piece, a few bites to eat out.
This snack is cold to eat hot to eat are very sweet, many elderly people who rush to the market like to buy a little to take home for their grandchildren to eat, there are also children who hold their parents' hands to buy, it seems that children still love to eat sweets, but they can't eat more!
