(Photo taken in winter 2019)
In the ignorant youth, who has not been dominated by the food concept taught by my parents, just like my mother has always said that red dates are highly nutritious, not only do they love to eat, but also love to force me to eat every day since childhood, resulting in me growing to 1.8 large, still afraid of red dates.
There are also many delicious foods that children are extremely enthusiastic about, called garbage by their parents, but they have to taste them for a small life, and they can't avoid fighting with their parents, and they can eat a bite to earn a bite.
Of course, there is always the kind of food that you and your parents can agree to eat, and the child is happily devouring, and the parents are chanting my boy to finally understand.
That's right, it's about this chai hot pot side, the strong smell of shrimp oil that can be smelled 100 meters away, is called a treasure snack by many people, and I have been eating it for more than 10 years.
01 Mediocre wood-hot pot side shop
Open on the side of the chai hot pot on Yangzhong Road, sandwiched in a whole red and yellow jagged signboard, don't look at it as just a mediocre small shop, but it is already a big Internet celebrity on this street, and the crowd is denser than the Yonghui supermarket next door.
Every time you pass by, you will be frightened by the battle of the people at the door, but you are itchy, and you have to come to a bowl of pots with a fritter next to the side of the pot to start the day full of vitality in the way of The People of Fuzhou.
A few aunts run the business in the shop, the stove at the door is set up with a large pot to burn the edge of the pot, from the original grandmother with firewood, to now because of the city management changed to liquefied gas, has not changed is the taste.
Pot edges, fritters, shrimp crisps, oil cakes, tea eggs... Are the old ones that Fuzhou people love to eat, and the simple taste grabs people's appetite, and it is also the tiger's very na!
There are really many people, the flow is also fast, usually when you see someone get up, you rush over with an arrow, and as soon as you sit down, the aunt behind you is already holding a hot pot on the side of the table, which is more efficient than how many bosses like.
Opened for more than 20 years of small broken shops, from the earliest neighbor patronage to the present, some people have come from afar to punch the clock, becoming a well-known internet celebrity shop, the taste of online prices is real, no wonder the summer, even if there is no air conditioning in the store, but no one has a bad review.
The morning of the people of Fuzhou has just begun.
02 A bowl of pot edges, the best way to open the morning
How to make a good pot side, the lady in front of the stove has the most say, a large bowl of rice milk scooped up, comparable to the brushing of cheese, the next pot along the edge of the pot circle, and then the kitchen knife so a shovel, with small shrimp rice green onion and seaweed fireworks, slowly aroused the appetite.
I remember that before, my favorite thing to see was the handsome look of the shopkeeper's grandfather when he made the pot edge, and it had been so long since he blinked his eyes.
The edge of a steaming pot is probably the elixir that the people of Fuzhou eat every morning.
It is indispensable to add some shrimp oil to it, and the strong shrimp oil flavor is the most authentic Fuzhou city well gas.
There are really not many accessories, the appearance of clear soup and water, but it is far more than those who add ingredients to the explosion, lobster abalone piled into a mountain of seafood pots to have an appetite, ordinary people's taste of life, synonymous will never be luxury.
What is more worthy of praise is the side of its pot, which is refreshing and clean in the mouth, the taste is chewy enough, and the salty soup is inlet, which is not the most addictive taste of Fuzhou people.
03 The best companion on the side of the pot, I choose shrimp puff pastry
Asked what is the most suitable snack with the pot side, 1000 people have 1000 kinds of answers, what oil cake shrimp crisp, what fried strip triangle cake... You can always find your own cluster, but I think the best match is shrimp puff pastry.
Who is not a sit down to have to come to a few shrimp crisp to relieve the hunger of the snack goods, 2, 3 bites of a normal, some people can stuff a bite, chewing between do not forget to shout a delicious.
The simple and boring way of frying, the brother's intentions day after day, probably inheriting the spirit of the shopkeeper's grandparents, a craft is always adhered to by people for ten years, even if it is ordinary.
Pay attention to the way to eat, that is, to dip into the edge of the pot, put the juice of the soup base into the mouth, the taste is fragrant and crisp and soft, contradictory and harmonious delicious.
Fritters are not to be outdone, slender and fluffy figure will starve the foodies to death, fried to the same golden crispness on the surface, a clicking sound, for foodies, is the most beautiful note in the world!
The triangle cake that must have a name is the taste of childhood memories, and the grandmother who pushes her bicycle around in the country to sell triangle cakes, walks around with her cart, and eats the hot triangle cake she makes, which is the happiness of childhood.
A mouthful of crisp and soft glutinous, both inside and outside, with a faint taro fragrance, can easily stir the taste buds.
///
The hot pot side scene, and even many brand store chains have enough energy to do publicity can not be compared with the effect, appetite can most perceive the taste, good and bad taste to know, can not become an Internet celebrity, can not affect its strength by relying on taste and cost performance.
I only hope that such a small shop can continue to be opened for our children and grandchildren.
