Recently, often in the headlines to see the introduction of snacks in Fujian or Zhangzhou snacks articles, feel not meticulous enough, the heart is also very strange, the surrounding cities are keen to promote their own characteristics, only Zhangzhou people (urban areas) are especially comfortable living their own small life, continue to maintain the "small wealth is safe" mentality.
Although not native Zhangzhou people, but also the local Zhangzhou people, often to foreign friends to introduce the comfortable life of Zhangzhou, naturally it is indispensable to bring Zhangzhou friends to taste the special snacks throughout the streets and alleys of Zhangzhou.
Many articles divide the snacks of southern Fujian into the three prefectures of Xiamen Zhangquan, which is actually caused by the lack of understanding of the eating habits of southern Fujian, such as brine noodles, roast meat palm, shacha noodles, oyster frying, soil shoot jelly, beef soup, five spices, etc., which is not exclusive to which city, but each state has similar ingredients or cooking methods, and the real characteristics and in one place are rare, so it can be defined as a local special snack.
Therefore, if you have the heart to think that Zhangzhou (only in the old urban area, that is, the current Qiancheng District) can be called a special snack, try to record it, and if it is not thoughtful, please correct it.
Bean blossom fans, personally feel that should fit the definition of special snacks. Xiamen occasionally sees, but also listed "Zhangzhou bean flower", it can be seen that this unique is difficult to counterfeit. Just like the stone code five spices, although it belongs to Zhangzhou Longhai (now Longhai District), Zhangzhou Qiancheng will never grab this "brand".
Zhangzhou bean flower fan shop, mostly in female names, such as daifen, qin, flower, Jun and other store names, only to see "Mei Zai" a male name (male names are mostly seen in brine noodle shops), which can also be described as one of the "characteristics". When I first started working, I ate a small stall under the ephedra tree on the side of the provincial road on the other side of West Street, a group of young people, calling the stall owner "Bean Flower Xi Shi". The original division courtyard side of a very famous family, but unfortunately later also made fast food, bean blossoms are not serious, the taste is also poor. A certain immortal community that family, the original several big sisters by selling bean flowers, have made a fortune, but only after the bean blossoms are thin and shapeless, they have not eaten again and again. In fact, the taste of each house is different, depending on personal taste, but for people who are day trip, there is no way to compare.
Back to the truth, Zhangzhou's bean blossoms, unlike tofu brains, are like gelatinous, it is said that only locally produced soybeans, small, oval,rather than northeast soybeans round and large grains. The beans are ground into a pulp (key point one, soybean water ratio), and then boiled twice, then filtered, cooled (some say about 90 degrees), poured in a mixture of gypsum water and sweet potato powder (key point two, or three ratios), stirred, let stand until it solidifies, its color is white, like gelatin, slice into a bowl, add vermicelli (this vermicelli is also unique, lotus banana vermicelli). Seemingly simple, in fact, the secret lies in the proportions, I have tried to do, 100% of them, it is indeed not so simple to copy.
Bean blossoms are jun, fans are queens, sannomiya is flavor, and brine is courtier, which is a delicious table gathered in a bowl of snacks, which is called a feature.
