Su-style fresh meat mooncake

Sweet fillings include pine nuts, walnuts, roses, red beans, etc.; salty fillings include ham, shrimp, chives, etc. Among them, the most evocative one is probably the fresh meat mooncake. In front of the long-established stalls, you can see the queue waiting for the mooncakes to be baked all year round, and the Mid-Autumn Festival is in short supply.
Maple town big noodles
There is rarely a bowl of noodles that will bring diners a fragrant aroma like Maple Town Noodles, because in addition to the common meat bones and eel bones, lees and screws are added when hanging soup. The toppings are a piece of stewed meat, but unlike ordinary stewed meat, it is white, the recipe is complicated, and it cannot be stewed with soy sauce, and it is purely seasoned with salt. As a result, the stewed meat is fat and melts in the mouth, the noodle soup is fresh and smooth, and the wine is mellow.
Red and white soup with ao stove noodles
People who have tasted the noodles of red oil fried fish noodles, white soup noodles, most of them will never forget the unique flavor of the soup with fresh noodles and mellow toppings. Pan Xiaomin, the national catering master of Xucheng Building, personally went to Kunshan AoZao Noodle House more than ten years ago to learn art, so that the authentic Aozao noodles settled in Suzhou, and constantly improved the recipe and taste, the soup is more exquisite, the taste is more abundant, and the toppings in addition to fried fish and brine duck also add braised meat and wild shrimp.
Chicken head rice soup
Suzhou people have a lot of attention to eating "water ginseng" chicken head rice. One is to eat nantang's chicken head rice, the best quality; the second is to buy a small amount, once eaten, eat is the fresh taste with the smell of water; the third is to eat in time for the Mid-Autumn Festival, once missed, you can only wait for the next year's listing.
Legend has it that during the Ming and Qing dynasties, in the remote mountains of Ya'an, some people had a particularly good food, after a long period of research and soup with practice, the cooked chicken tasted good, top-secret broth and red oil were fragrant, making people salivate! But at that time, the productivity was backward, chicken was a luxury enjoyment, only in the New Year's Festival to eat once, someone came up with a clever trick, the whole chicken cut into a lot of thin slices, sold by pieces, received miraculous results, sales surprisingly good. "Chicken slices" are famous! A new problem has since arisen: kitchen knives alone can't cut each slice of chicken evenly, and customers are often picky about size when buying. After someone meditated, they used a wooden stick to beat the back of the knife, and while cutting the chicken into even thin slices, the original broth and red oil penetrated the chicken more thoroughly, and the taste was better! When slaughtering, one person holds a knife and one person holds a stick, with tacit understanding; when the wooden stick hits the back of the knife, the sound emitted changes with the weight of the force, suppressing the ups and downs, self-rhythm, giving people the feeling of listening to music, so it is called "lollipop chicken [1]"!
