Tonglu food list
Each city has its own food menu, one city and one place, the ingredients are nourished by local water and soil, coupled with local skills, reflecting the local flavor. This flavor is limited by the ingredients, skill, and climate, and cannot be copied elsewhere or is difficult to replicate, so it can be regarded as a local diet.
Tonglu Menu:
Jiangxian: wine-flavored anchovies, steamed white perch, steamed whitefish, braised boat diced fish, crispy lingfish, wild river eel (steamed)
Tofu: Xin'an Fuchun has retained the craftsmanship of homemade and brine tofu
Meat: Pork face
Pastry: Sake stuffed steamed buns
When you go to Tonglu, you naturally have to eat the fish in the Fuchun River. The streams and springs in Tonglu meet at the Fenshui River from Lin'an Tianmu Mountain, and the Fuchun River from Anhui, Northeast Gan, and Jinqu. Fish are naturally the main hit.
【Wine-flavored anchovy】
Like knifefish, anchovies are eaten with scales, and the richest, most subtle flavors are found in the thin scales on the surface of the anchovies.
Steamed condiments can be selected from the upstream Lanxi City micro-fermented wind meat, "Lanyin deep, wind meat fragrant", Lanxi wind meat has long been famous, can also be fully fermented Jinhua ham meat, coupled with aged Shaoxing wine, accurate fire, the ingredients stimulate each other, the achievement of a Tonglu famous dish.
Wine-scented anchovies are famous on both sides of Qiantang and Fuchun, and end in Tonglu Fuchun Town - there is a Fuchun River dam at the junction of Tonglu and Jiande, and the anchovies migrating up from Hangzhou Bay in the East China Sea stop here.
【White perch】
It is also a migratory fish, which is cherished by fishermen on both sides of the Fuchun River, and the price is higher than that of white fish.
【White fish】
White fish, Taihu Lake and Qiantang River basin multi-fingered warped /scientific name warped red carp, basically steamed with Shaojiu, the taste is tender, fresh and slightly sweet. The heaviest heat, after a little, the taste will be fluffy. Wuhan is called Jiangdiao. The secret of steaming white fish in Yema Restaurant, a well-known private restaurant in Hangzhou: smearing a finger of lard and steaming.
【River Eel】
Wild river eels
So far, humans have not been able to artificially breed eels, and can only be reared with net eel fry. Therefore, every year in the summer, fishermen with net eel fry will appear on the riverside.
Wild river eels are considered luxury goods, and the water price of the Freshwater section of the Qiantang River-Fuchun River in 2017 was about 480 pounds, and the price of the downstream area near the sea was decreasing.
Hangzhou custom, wild eels can strengthen children's bones.
【Boat Ding fish】
Shaped like a boat nail, the body is round and thin, about one palm long, weighing no more than two or two, the Qiantang River Basin and the river basin north of the Qiantang River are widely distributed, and it is one of the main fish in Tonglu.
【Ziling Fish】
Ziling fish is a small fish, measured in length by centimeters, characterized by suction cups on the chest, the scientific name of the puqi tiger fish.
There are nearly 2,000 species of goby in the world, mostly growing near rivers or estuaries, mostly found in China in the Yangtze River and the lower reaches of the Pearl River, and april to July is the best fishing season every year, and fresh fish can be eaten. Jiangxi Jiujiang Lushan stone fish also refers to this kind of fish, Hubei Yangxin called spring fish, Anhui Jing County called lyrefish, Dongzhi County called wheat fish, different names in various places, the source of the name is mostly because of the spring wheat season, the fish is flourishing.
Because of the Yanziling, the Ziling fish became a famous fish in Tonglu. Small fish should be fried, the most suitable for drinking.
In addition to the above, Tonglu's miscellaneous fish one-pot roast is also a local staple dish.
【Pork face】
In terms of meat, Tonglu's first signature is a dish of salted pork face meat: the pig's head is split, marinated and stewed, and the half-pork face bone is made of the bottom, and the salted fresh pork face meat with a meat aroma is placed on it. Ten years ago, when I first ate this domineering dish, I felt that Tonglu cuisine had momentum!
【Sake stuffed steamed buns】
Perhaps knowing that wine is not brewed by Shaoxing people, Tonglu people invented wine-made steamed buns.
Sake-stuffed steamed buns are the most distinctive pastry in Tonglu. Brewed with liquor to drain the ferment, the steamer basket is laid with lotus leaves, the basket is fluffy like a cloud, the taste is soft and slightly sweet, which is completely different from the "solid" steamed bun style, which perfectly reflects the charm of Jiangnan mantou.
Wine-stuffed steamed buns are not only Tonglu characteristics, but also a major feature of Zhejiang on the Chinese food stage, which must be ordered.
Maoping Village in the slow living area of Tonglu has a wine-brewed steamed bun workshop, which is steamed with mountain stream water and noodles, wood, and produced by old craftsmanship. At the production site, the aroma of the noodles is mixed with a faint aroma of wine, and the mountain and the wind swirl, and the fragrance is scattered and wafted around.
Maoping Workshop is an important producer of Tonglu wine-brewed steamed buns.
