Sweet persimmon bar
Persimmons, which can only be eaten in autumn and early winter, will only be eaten directly in most places, or dried to eat persimmon cakes. In Xi'an, which is rich in persimmons, you can eat its plus version - yellow gui persimmon cake and persimmon paste, which is the most cattle seasonal sweet in the country.
Yellow gui persimmon cake and persimmon paste are god-like beings, and they are sold every autumn until April and May of the following year (now is the time). If you want to eat it again after this season, you will have to wait for the persimmons to come down next year.
This is a kind of Lintong unique "fire crystal persimmon" as raw material, fresh fire crystal persimmon beaten into a pulp, mixed with flour into a dough, and then wrapped with yellow cinnamon sauce, rose sauce, bean paste, date paste, black sesame seeds and other fillings kneaded by hand into a ball, neatly stacked in a frying pan after several times of frying and frying, the finished product is bulging on both sides, shaped like an oil cake and slightly thicker. Persimmon cakes must be eaten with the heat of the pot just out of the pan, take a bite, the skin is crispy, the filling is soft, and the entrance is sweet. If it gets cold, the sugar inside will congeal and harden, and the taste will naturally be greatly reduced. Jia Pingwo once wrote: Lintong has fire crystal persimmons, red as fire, bright as crystals, fine flesh, and no hard core. Eat one and think twice, and think of the whole family. However, the seasons are limited and it is not easy to bring, so the persimmon paste collapsed.
Persimmon paste is slightly different from persimmon cake in that it is not filled, the flour is added with water and the crushed persimmons are mixed, spread on a special container with a raised side, and fried in a boiling pan of oil. Fried paste collapse color golden, thin and crispy oil coat, soft glutinous inside sweet, bite to see the hot air coming out of it, feel super awesome, holding in the palm of your hand is even warmer ~ eat it feels like no sugar, is the persimmon itself is fresh and sweet, not greasy!
Persimmon paste collapse, a kind of food makes the tip of the tongue have two different experiences, fried crisp and persimmon sweet soft spread between the lips and teeth, in the mouth constantly repeatedly aftertaste, the contradiction in a small persimmon paste on the harmonious existence, this pure persimmon fragrance, let the tip of the tongue be infinitely spoiled, but let people have a happy taste ~
If you want to say where the persimmon cake and persimmon paste are the most authentic, everyone can't tell. In fact, persimmon cakes and pastes look similar to each house, but the proportion of persimmons and noodles in each house is different, but it is this ratio, as well as the content of oil temperature, sweetness, and filling that causes each family to have different tastes.
However, as a "foodie" who loves to eat persimmon cakes and pastes since childhood, the sweetness, greasiness, softness and viscosity of persimmon cakes/persimmon pastes in each family in memory have their own advantages
