Jilin gourmet snacks take the essence of Beijing, Lu and Western cooking, combined with the eating habits of local people, make full use of the rich products of Jilin to form their own characteristics, with a wide range of materials and exquisite. It is known for its large number of plates and emphasis on fullness and affordability. The flavor type of the dishes focuses on salty flavor and freshness, soft and tender and crisp, light and refreshing, and halal dishes and Korean snacks are also quite distinctive. Let's take a look at the top 10 alternative food snacks in Jilin, which are regarded as delicious by locals and have no way for foreign diners to eat.
1. Large sauce
The sauce is made of pure soybeans, and after it is done, when it is beaten, that is, when stirring the sauce tank, the fragrance of the tempting sauce will float out, and the focus is on the seductive and fragrant, rather than any other taste. The people who smell the smell next to it can't help but want to taste it. Good sauce can be identified by smell. The prepared sauce can be eaten raw, and the dipping sauce of various small dishes is very delicious, salty and umami. Diced meat or eggs with chili sauce are delicious. The jam can also be used as a condiment for cooking.
In the past, Jilin locals made big sauce, to cook soybeans well, to make a long cube of sauce blanks, with knotted straw hanging on the beam, may be to prevent rats but hanging on the beams can not prevent flies, although the local winter is very cold, but there are flies in spring and autumn, some not too cold years, flies will be in the sauce blank maggots, when the sauce will find that the sauce blanks are flies pupae Even if there is no fly pupae in the sauce blank, it will definitely be moldy sauce blank broken in the sauce jar, add salt and water, every day need to stir the sauce jar is placed outdoors, can not be sealed, Only cover a white cloth, and tie nuts to the four corners to prevent being blown away by the wind.
But sometimes it's too windy, or there are holes in the cloth, and flies will run in to lay eggs! In the summer, the sauce tank smells like a salted Xiang, the sauce inside looks like Xiang, if you don't take care of it, there will be maggot babies or fly pupae, if it rains too late to use the iron basin to cover the sauce jar, there will be rain inside, I really don't know how to eat it that year. The sauce bought online now should be industrially produced, and there is certainly not so much animal protein and flavor. In fact, any sauce that has an uncomfortable smell is spoiled. Good sauce in the open air does not attract flies. Therefore, maggots are not born. Only spoiled sauce will produce maggots.
2. Frozen pears
Frozen pears, also known as autumn pears, the snowflake pears are placed in the ice and snow to freeze solid, when eating in the water to dissolve, the pear meat becomes soft and sticky sweetness increases the cool silk, roasted on the stove to eat frozen pears Life is a beautiful thing. Interestingly, in the winter of the northeast, everyone prefers to eat cool food, and frozen pears, frozen persimmons and street popsicles are representative. Many foreign diners see frozen pears for the first time and really can't get their mouths shut.
Jilin generally has two kinds of pears will be made into frozen pears in winter, one is called Huagai pear, the history is relatively long, in recent years, some less, Huagai pear made of frozen pears after thawing, generally only one layer of skin internal structure will become liquid, the taste is sweet and sour.
Another kind of pear is called apple pear, in recent years, due to the production of apple pears more, most of the original flower lid frozen pears are replaced by apple pears, apple pears taste sweet, large, delicate flesh, rich juice.
3. Silkworm pupae
Jilin is rich in things, and I have seen the local cattle, sheep and chicken that seem to never be eaten, and the locals still like to eat silkworm pupae. I feel that this has to do with habits, that is, the problem of taste. If you ate it as a child and have been eating it without interruption, you will most likely think that silkworm pupae is a delicacy. After all, its taste is really OK, and because of the rich protein content, it has a particularly strong aroma. But if you only ate it when you were a child, and you haven't eaten it since you grew up, you will feel as unaccustomed as I am when you eat it again.
When I was a child, the family often fried, put into the wok to start that time, all kinds of swings and twists, with a circle of lines, shaking the head and tail is super cute, when not made into a dish, I will play with it in my hand, pinch one end, watch the other end keep spinning and swaying, it is also a childhood fun. When you make a dish, you take one bite at a time, bite it in your mouth, swallow the juice that flows out of it, and chew it and spit it out.
It is recommended that small partners who have not eaten and dare not try can try the dish of dry sautéed silkworm pupae first, which is easier to accept in terms of taste and perception, and will not have such a strong resistance as looking at the whole silkworm pupae.
4. Pecans
Pecans are the result of natural conditions, large walnuts are the result of artificial breeding for the convenience of eating, and the process of eating these two walnuts is also different, pecans eat more is a pleasure, it is really difficult to open. For friends from other places, the first time pecans can not be opened at all, with a stone smashed, even the walnut kernels can not be found, I usually tell friends from other places to use needles to pick and eat.
Now pecans are processed into hand-peeled seeds or very good peeling, compared with the original seeds in the past is simply a qualitative leap. Hand peeling of seeds is simple for us locals, and we generally peel out the whole kernel. There are people in the field who like to eat hand peeling seeds, generally will be equipped with a shell peeler, that thing is more chicken ribs for me, I am still used to using my hands and mouth, but for people who want to eat and drink can not eat pecans is an artifact.
5, know the monkey
Some areas of Jilin call the monkey a turtle, in the summer many people will go to catch, summer night where there are many trees will see a lot of people with flashlights to shine, a column of light intertwined in the woods, generally a small half of the night can catch a lot, restaurants and restaurants will also be waiting in some place to collect this. At the most expensive time of the year, a monkey broke through 1 yuan. The caught monkey is washed and brushed with salt, and fried or sautéed in the pan, which is said to be more delicious than silkworm pupae. However, many southern diners saw the monkey after frying, and they really didn't know how to put their mouths down.
6. Dip in pickles
Jilin people love to eat dipping pickles, as long as all kinds of vegetables can be eaten raw, almost all can be used to dip to eat. For example, water radish, white radish, shallots, shallots, cucumbers, lettuce, dried tofu, lettuce, coriander, spinach, Chinese cabbage, eggplant, pepper and so on. Every New Year's Festival, including the New Year, dipped pickles are still served as a cold dish, and the ingredients will be more precious, including local wild vegetables, mountain treasures, etc., due to regional reasons, seafood and aquatic products are rarely seen as ingredients. At this time, the ingredients may be added as follows: mother-in-law, willow sprouts, monkey legs, thorn sprouts, white fungus, wild bracken, etc.
The colleague is a southerner, according to him, whenever he sees a northeasterner in some TV series, eating dipped pickles on the kang, it is next to a pot of vegetables, greens, radish wisps (radish leaves?). The kind with thorns on it), and then use your hand to dip it into the sauce next to it and eat it. They all felt as if they were particularly delicious, and they especially wanted to eat it. To this end, he also tried to buy sauce in the supermarket, cut some vegetables cucumbers, greens, etc. to try to eat this method, and found that he could not eat two bites. Did you buy the sauce wrong? Why watch them eat so delicious?
7. Dog meat
Searching for dog meat restaurants in Jilin shows that there are more than 1,800 people, which is more than the two Guangzhou areas, which shows that locals love to eat dog meat. Jilin Yanbian, Yanji vegetable market dogs are to mao clean up white clean neatly placed on the board, Yulin dog meat festival just became famous, one of my Jilin classmates watched the news picture, on the spot up the autumn wind perch heart, so the next day flew back to Jilin to eat dog meat. Then I saw him in the circle of friends at night. For many people, they have never eaten dog meat, and it is estimated that they dare not mouth when they see it.
There are many ways to eat dogs locally: white cut dogs, boiled, and then cut well dipped sauce to eat, meat color is white, sauce is very important, sweet and sour, sour ginger, coriander, green onion, sour garlic, pepper, vinegar and soy sauce, most people like, light, pure flavor. Braised dog meat, dry pot dog meat, put cinnamon, star anise, fragrant leaves and other spices together with the dog meat to the pot to simmer, out of the pot after the color is maroon. Dog feet, generally stewed, fried. Dog bone porridge, generally rural killing a dog is stuffy a big pot, and then the dog bones boil a big pot, a few tables of people eat the sea to drink, the juice is rich and delicious.
8. Raw mixed fish
Raw mixed fish is a traditional food snack of the Manchu people in Jilin Province, which has a long history. According to the "Jilin Chronicle", raw fish meat originated three or four thousand years ago. The fish that the locals eat is freshwater fish, I dare to eat pufferfish, dare to eat sea fish sashimi, dare to eat five-minute cooked steak, but dare not eat raw fish (freshwater fish). Even in Japan, where medical care and hygiene are well developed and mainly eat marine fish and fish, the infection rate of related parasitic diseases is significantly higher. But there are still many people who love raw fish.
Let's not say that marine fish are now used instead of freshwater fish, even freshwater fish, people who are willing to eat will eat it. The reason is that everyone understands that the problem of freshwater fish parasites is serious, and drunken shrimp and drunken crabs also have such problems. Food can not be disappointed, you feel that if you can't make a mistake, don't eat, really want to try to take medicine to go out to buy insect medicine, pharmacies in some places in the south understand, after all, there are people who take allergy medicine to eat seafood.
9. Peanut cake
Jilin is rich in soybean oil and peanut oil, in the past it was generally made by oneself, the pressed peanut cake can be eaten, when I was a child, I often played with the son of the owner of the oil mill in our village, and he often ate it when he was dipped, and the taste was very strong peanut oil. Peanut cake has no oil, how to eat it will not have a greasy feeling, if you can cut into small pieces with bamboo skewers on the fire to burn, there will be a more delicious taste. To put it bluntly, it is peanuts without oil, which can be eaten as diet food unexpectedly, and it is also very full. However, now it is made into fishing feed, and few people eat it. It is estimated that outsiders will certainly not eat this thing when they see it.
10. Bake a large white loin
The big white waist, known as the men's gas station women's beauty salon, is an indispensable half of the Jilin barbecue. This thing is bigger than a child's fist, and when grilling, it should be cut in half and hit with a flower knife, otherwise it is difficult to bake. I don't know if I can eat this thing anywhere else, although it hangs a waist name, it is actually a sheep's gao pill.
Due to the strong taste of the big white waist, the barbecue master can make it roasted out to eat, it can be said that it is painstaking, pickling to remove fishy, brushing oil, sprinkling salt, and sprinkling with super a variety of spices, the entrance can be less irritating. To be honest, I have been in Jilin for more than ten years, and I have only tasted one bite of roasted white waist. The texture is soft and crispy, the meat is very thick, a little Q-bomb, and the taste is extremely strong. It's not that it's not tasty, it's just that I'm not blessed.
