Hello everyone, today we will enter the third stop of ancient capital cuisine, which is one of the most famous ancient capitals in our country. His food culture is also very rich and often amazing. There are many famous delicacies in the three stops. For example, lamb steamed buns, fragrant mochi noodles, endless aftertaste, delicious and non-greasy meat sandwich buns, refreshing and delicious cold skin, as well as delicious soup buns, crisp and delicious gourd juice, etc
Today, I'm going to share with you a few of the key ones. The first is the noodles, the second is the meat sandwich buns, and the third is the dumpling feast. Then in these three delicacies, one or two moles and meat sandwich buns, perhaps everyone knows and has heard of them, but this dumpling banquet is relatively unfamiliar. So today, let's take a look. The first is a Chinese word with a lot of strokes. What is this word? It is estimated that many friends have never seen this word, that is, mole. The special delicacy we're going to talk about today is the noodles. Maybe you think these three dishes are strange, and their names are also strange? In fact, Shaanxi itself has eight monsters. One is stranger than the other. What are the Eight Monsters? Respectively, the bench does not sit and squat up, the house is half covered, the girl is not outside, Papa wears on her head, the noodles are like trouser belts, the pot helmet is like a pot lid, a dish made of spicy seeds, singing and roaring, this is the famous eight monsters in Shaanxi. Did you guess that our noodles today are related to the noodles here? Some attentive friends have already guessed that what we are going to talk about must have something to do with the noodles, because there is a "mole" sub.
Oddly enough, the mole noodles are like trouser belts, which sounds like a metaphor that friends often learn. What does that mean? That said, this mole face is a lot like the belt on our pants, especially its width and length and belt. In general, a bowl of noodles is a piece long, probably taller than a friend's height. Therefore, it is a little difficult for a friend to eat a whole pair of trouser belt-like mole noodles. Then the size of the noodles belongs to the trouser belt noodles A noodle is particularly sloppy to eat, very chewy, especially for everyone to like the practice, is the form of the slope. The noodles must be handmade and, kneaded, dared, pulled, pulled. Each process is the first craft, and the noodles are cooked on a stove plate. When the noodles are cooked, it is not the chopstick clip we usually use, because the noodles are long and slippery, and they need to be covered in a bowl, and then the ingredients such as green onions, pepper powder, salt and a thick layer of chili powder are placed on the surface noodles, and using hot vegetable oil, drizzled on the seasoning, the heat is boiling, and my nose is perfectly integrated into the noodles. Think about it, the saliva is flowing.
Then when this bowl of noodles is placed in front of you, in addition to admiring its full color and fragrance, it is mouth-watering. Another monster in Shaanxi is in front of you again. So what would it be? Friends are welcome to actively guess. What else do we have? I also want to give you a key explanation here, so why talk about him? Because this word seems to be difficult to type, can not be typed on the computer, the pinyin is also very strange. Friends say I've never seen a pinyin like this. Then the word has a lot of strokes and is hard to write. The reason for his pronunciation is related to the onomatopoeia of a girl in the Guanzhong area. So what does this fit in with and sounds like what? That's what we leave for our friends to think about today. Maybe when we usually write, we will be afraid of multi-stroke text, there are difficulties in writing, but we must believe that as long as the method is correct, we practice hard, and it will not disappoint. Today, I will work with my friends to break through this difficulty. The industrious and intelligent Shaanxi people fully demonstrated their wisdom when writing this word, and they made up the slip of the tongue with words, what did they say? Let's listen, a little fly to the sky, the two ends of the Yellow River bend, the eight characters open mouth, the middle of the Japanese word to go, twist a twist, a long and long, add a horse king in the middle, next to the heart word bottom moon word, a small knife hanging all over the hall, take a car to visit Xianyang, Hehe, everyone listen to this is very interesting. You can practice writing and writing, you can see that this word is a combination system, it has passed a great test, need the patience of friends.
However, when friends can be independent, I believe everyone will feel very satisfied. Shaanxi's Guanzhong Plain is rich in wheat, so this interview is very famous, and the noodles have always been loved by locals and even the whole country. The main reason is what the main win is in his simple and delicious preparation. From ancient times to the present, if you are busy, everyone will think of mochi noodles, and even simple instant noodles later. It can be seen that making the most delicious food in the shortest time is also the wisdom of the people of Shaanxi.
Then, introduce this second delicacy to your friends. It was a very familiar meat sandwich bun. So what knowledge does this meat sandwich bun have to do with? Interesting stories in the dialect will be related to meat sandwich buns. First of all, I would like to say that in fact, meat sandwich steamed buns are not authentic food in Shaanxi. Now we can eat authentic meat sandwich buns all over the country, and even in some foreign countries, we are also loved by diners. I once saw a report that somewhere in the United States, a small meat sandwich bun can sell for more than ten dollars, which is equivalent to 70,80 yuan. If this is in China, it can be said that the foreign price is several times the domestic price. There are still a lot of buyers, so it can be seen that everyone loves meat sandwich steamed buns and loves the charm of Chinese food culture.
Friends will be curious about it, why is it called meat sandwich bun? This is obviously for steamed buns and meat, and there are a few points of knowledge here. Let us share it with you. The first reason it is called meat sandwich bun is ancient Chinese. Meat sandwich buns are actually meat and fish buns, and the meat is sandwiched in the buns. Later, in order to promote colloquialism, it was directly called meat sandwich bun. This is the first reason, the second reason is the method of passing on, is the right idea, in order to highlight the meat flavor of the meat, the meat is deliberately placed in front of the steamed bun, so that it can attract more people's attention. This indicates that there is more meat than steamed buns, so it is called meat sandwich buns. The third reason is that steamed buns with meat sound particularly like no meat. It sounds like there is no meat in the bun, so how can you buy it, so in order to reduce misunderstandings. More importantly, increase sales and change the position of meat. This simple change has really increased sales a lot. Later, the name meat sandwich bun became more and more popular. That's the origin of our meat sandwich steamed bun name, so the next time you eat it, you can tell its story.
Next to the third dish, during the Spring Festival, the habit in the north is to eat dumplings, like a game called blind box played by friends now. It's also a very interesting thing. Then, there will be some special fillings in a plate of dumplings, such as peanuts, red dates, dumplings, and the meaning of eating dumplings with different fillings is also different. Eating rich dumplings means that there is a lot of money in the New Year, and eating dumplings with sugar means sweet and happy. So, let's talk about this dumpling feast, which has another auspicious and interesting name, called Empress Hot Pot, which is very famous. There was a long-established brand called Chrysanthemum Hot Pot, also called Empress Hot Pot, like this friend playing blind box, what color dumplings you eat depends on luck. The dumplings in this hot pot are as small, colorful, interesting and beautiful as pearls to achieve and eat results. The dumplings are placed in a hot pot and cooked freshly, beating like chrysanthemums as the flames beat, so it is called chrysanthemum hot pot.
Why is it also called the Empress Hot Pot? Here's a story for everyone? In 1900, the Eight-Nation Alliance invaded Beijing, and as a last resort, Empress Dowager Cixi fled to Xi'an with the Guangxu Emperor, causing the empress to lose her appetite after days of traveling. The chefs tried their best to cook delicious meals for the Empress Dowager, hoping to be praised by the Empress Dowager. One night, according to the empress's preferences, the chefs came up with a midnight snack, boiled with eggs, made dumplings into a very mini pearl dumpling with chicken accessories, and then cooked in a hot pot. Every time you present three, six, or nine, Empress Dowager Cixi is confused. The cook replied to the empress dowager that this was the meaning of the 369 curve upwards, and the empress dowager was in a good mood when she heard this and ate several dumplings. This is how the dumplings of the Empress Dowager hot pot are named. This famous and interesting hot pot dumpling is also loved by domestic and foreign guests. Also in 1998, President Clinton's wife, Hillary Clinton, also gave a thumbs up during the dumpling feast tasting, which tasted very good. Friends, we talked about three special Xi'an snacks today, do you know them? Food is not only related to eating, but also to characters in Old Chinese, games and stories.
