Among the "Top Ten Gan Dishes" selected this year, there is a three-cup chicken in Ningdu. As soon as you hear the name of this dish, many people are not calm, is this not a Taiwanese dish? When did you run to Jiangxi? In fact, three cups of chicken originated in Jiangxi, and its development and growth was in Taiwan. How it was transmitted to Taiwan, there are multiple versions.
One said that the Hakka brought it to Taiwan and carried it forward; the other said that Chiang Kai-shek liked to eat "three cups of lushan chicken" in those years, and after going to Taiwan, he improved the three cups of chicken according to Taiwan's practice, so it became a Taiwanese three-cup chicken. In the end, that kind of statement is correct, this is no longer important, let's understand together, the same is the same three cups of chicken, Gancai "three cups of chicken" and "Taiwanese three cups of chicken" What is the difference? Let's learn together.
The three cups of chicken in Gancai generally refer to the three cups of chicken in Ningdu. It was also rated as the first of the "Top Ten Gan cuisine". Friends who have eaten Gancai should know that Gancai is based on the development of local cuisine, so the production method is relatively simple, and this three-cup chicken is also quite simple.
Its production method, with fresh Ningdu chicken, cut it into small pieces, and then put into the sand bowl, it does not need to put any soup water, just with a cup of rice wine, a cup of sesame oil, a cup of soy sauce; when boiling, first boil over high heat, and then use a low flame to braise noodles, wait for the chicken to collect red, the marinade is thick. Sesame oil is also replaced with lard.
On the palate, the meat is fragrant, with a sweet aroma of rice wine, and the taste is full of toughness and chewiness. This dish is actually very common in Jiangxi, and because of its relatively simple preparation, delicious taste, it is very popular with everyone.
Taiwanese three-cup chicken generally refers to three cups of Taiwanese chicken. Today, it has become one of the most popular Taiwanese dishes. It is a little more complicated to make, in addition to the three cups of seasoning required, it also needs to add a nine-story tower and garlic cloves.
Its production method, first chop the chicken into small pieces, but also the chicken nuggets for boiling water, put sesame oil in the pot, add sugar, garlic cloves and nine layers of tower to fry it fragrant, pour in the boiling water after the chicken nuggets continue to fry, to fry until it is browned, and then put in soy sauce, and then continue to simmer, when the pot is about to rise, rice wine will be added, and finally put in the nine-layer tower, the fire to collect the juice, so that a Taiwanese three cups of chicken is made.
The nine-story pagoda used in the Taiwanese three-cup chicken is a medicinal and food dual-purpose aromatic plant, which tastes like fennel, its stimulating taste and aroma are relatively strong, which can play a role in increasing the fragrance and fishy, and its taste is mainly fresh and sweet.
The biggest difference between Gancai "three cups of chicken" and "Taiwanese three cups of chicken" is that the raw materials it uses, to judge whether it is a taiwanese three cups of chicken, to see if it has added nine layers of towers, and secondly, its cooking is also more complicated, the three cups of chicken of Gancai are directly cooked, and the three cups of Taiwanese chicken need to have a frying process. What about these two three-cup chickens? It can only be said that each has its own characteristics.
Although Gancai is popular with locals, it is difficult to get out of Jiangxi Province, why is this? Take a look. The main thing is that the popularity is too low, there is no publicity, just like the three cups of chicken, obviously originated in Jiangxi, but few people know, but the Taiwanese three cups of chicken after improvement and innovation, has become a signature dish.
