This time it's another post that will make you drool.
I've always found a nice breakfast in the morning to be a special blessing, and it gives me the motivation to get up early. I can proudly say: as a 90-year-old, the habit of waking up at 6am every day was developed for breakfast. Especially after the control of dinner, with a slight sense of hunger to sleep, and then wake up to forage for food, eat a metabolic breakfast and then start the day's work, the kind of happiness and fulfillment can sweep away ten million kinds of unhappiness.
Many people choose to ignore breakfast because of work and other reasons, do not eat or swallow like to cope. But as a foodie, breakfast is the most important thing for me, and even when I'm losing weight, I have to eat a good breakfast, which is probably related to my childhood eating habits.
When I was in elementary school, I had to go to school at 6:00 a.m. for an early morning reading class and a language or math class, because I was in the countryside, and the school was less than a kilometer from my home. The two classes were finished at 8:00 a.m., and when it came time to eat breakfast, you had to go home for dinner. My home in the end of the village, from the school home to need to cross the entire village, so those years I was all the way to the smoke of the family and family to walk home, and sometimes meet the fast legs of the students, I just walked to the door of his home to see him and his parents with a bowl of rice squatting in front of the door of the taste of breakfast. The old folks like to have a good time, and when they eat, they like to pile up or stand or squat, chatting and eating, and if their own breakfast is not to their liking, they can also go to the neighbor's kitchen to get a bowl of rice, and even some of the aunts and daughters of the relationship is particularly good, they will make an appointment to do the next day to make a different breakfast, so that the two families will be able to eat the two tastes of the morning meal. Children are naturally curious about everything, I will not only eavesdrop on what they are talking about, perk up their ears to find their own interest in the content, I will also observe what they eat at home, see the delicious cravings will go home and let my mother to do, my mother can not do it will be in the pile up to eat breakfast with someone to learn from experience. The first thing you need to do is to get your hands dirty.
The old family had a deep obsession with three meals a day, and personally cultivated the land more aware of the hard-earned meals, so not eating can be compared to a sin. Three meals to eat a good day of energy is good, and breakfast, as a good start of the day, is a very important meal.
After growing up, I have been to many places, eaten a lot of local specialties, but the most nostalgic is still the hometown breakfast.
People in the north are inseparable from the pasta, natural breakfast is no exception. Today, we will introduce you to what we usually eat for breakfast, and see which one can heal your stomach in another country.
Staple food
Red sliced noodle potpourri
It's called this in dialect, but I really didn't find out what the scientific name is. It is made from white taro, which is peeled and dried and then ground into flour, and then pinched with both hands to take a small ball and kneaded in the palm of the hand, and then patted into a round cake and steamed in a pot. This kind of coarse grain flour and sweet potato starch is not the same, it retains the sweet potato flavor, sweetness, glutinous, so and into the dough is very sticky, can not be rolled out with a rolling pin, you have to use your hands to flatten. Because it's a coarse grain, it's very hunger-resistant and filling.
Wo Wo Tou
Our Wo Wo Tou here is not the same as the Northeastern people eat Wo Wo Tou, our Wo Wo Tou here is the same raw material as the above red slice of noodle potpourri, only the shape is not the same, and the texture is not very different. The hole in the center is used for dipping, soaked in soy beans or chili sauce. The sweetness of the sweet potato flour and the savory taste of the dipping sauce are a perfect match, and they don't feel out of place at all. Nowadays, you can still often hear vendors selling "Wo Wo Tou dipped in big pepper! The first thing you need to do is to get your hands on some of the best products and services in the world, and you'll be able to do that for yourself.
Xiaolongbao
Our side of the Xiaolongbao is more like a smaller bun, is made of flour, unlike the Shanghai Xiaolongbao, there is no soup inside, the soup of fresh meat in the process of steaming has penetrated into the dough, after steaming, the skin is thick and meat flavor, and then with a bowl of egg soup, the winter cold is swept away. This must be eaten with small dishes, dipping sauce, a dish of diced radish, a dish of vinegar chili, a bite of a bun, cozy.
Pan-fried buns
Pan-fried buns, also known as pan-fried buns, and small dumplings with the same materials, just pan frying with oil to make a crispy bottom and then add water to fry to maturity. Unlike the shengjian, there is not so much oil, but also thicker skin and less meat without soup. The fried bread is also a small one, and small dumplings similar to eat, a mouthful of one with a small dish and hot soup to eat.
布袋馍
It is said to be a local special kind of bread, shaped like a big pocket, also known as the pocket bun. I'm not sure if you're going to be able to find the right one, but I'm sure you're going to be able to find the right one, and I'm sure you're going to be able to find the right one, and I'm sure you're going to be able to find the right one.
The filling inside is usually made from local ingredients, such as home-made deep-fried noodle cake, oil residue, vermicelli, capers, cabbage, baby vegetables and other modulated filling, wrapped with hairy dough and steamed in a pot....... It is very delicious, and has now become a part of the region's specialty snacks.
Sugar triangle (also known as triangle package)
When I was a child, my favorite pasta, when snacks are scarce, every time my mother steamed steamed buns, I hope to be able to go along to the pinch of two triangular package, eat to the mouth can be happy on a long time. Inside the filling with brown or white sugar, usually sugar inside to sprinkle a little flour, mainly to prevent the sugar melted by the heat flow out.
Fried sugar cake
The fried sugar cake we make here is made from steamed sweet potatoes with flour, wrapped in brown sugar, and fried in a hot frying pan. The sweetness and softness of the sweet potato, together with the filling inside, sweet but not greasy, a bite can also be popping Oh, really delicious to burst.
Egg pancakes
Our egg pancakes here are not the same as those we have eaten in the city, the pancakes must be made with flour mixed with sweet potato flour (we call it flour noodles here), and then beat two eggs and sprinkled with a little green onion and leeks, and pan-fried in a clay pot. A spoonful of batter a pancake. Pancakes with garlic, a mouthful of pancakes and a grain of garlic, and then drink a mouthful of hot rice, simply refreshing.
Deep Fried Cake
When you don't want to steam the buns, you will deep fry the cake, which is dipped in soy beans, curd and chili paste, which is my favorite.
Fried vegetables
(I don't know why, but a lot of our dialect here has a "zi" in it, such as noodles are called noodles zi, oil cakes are called oil cakes zi, and vegetable boxes are called vegetable boxes.) The skin is wrapped with sweet potato vermicelli, eggs, capers or leeks, wrapped into a half-moon shape, and deep-fried until both sides are golden brown and can be eaten. This is a dish that must be eaten on New Year's Day, and sometimes it will be wrapped in sugar, wrapped in sugar fried is naturally called sugar angle son.
Fried Steamed Buns
Not fried Steamed Buns Oh, is the whole Steamed Buns under the frying pan fried, fried crust crispy golden, sprinkled with special seasoning powder, a mouthful of down outside the burnt soft without vegetables can be beautifully chewed through one. When I was in middle school, the most common breakfast stand in front of the school is this one, which is sandwiched between a tea egg, is a perfect breakfast.
Vegetable box
My family's love of vegetable box is really a sentence or two can't finish, we all know that leek box is very delicious, but in my family leek box is definitely the bottom of the vegetable box pyramid. The filling is the soul of the vegetable box, if you want me to rank the different fillings of the vegetable box, that rape flower stalks box must be ranked first, and then shepherd's purse box, amaranth box, spinach box, yellow heart vegetable box, rape box, amaranth box, gray grey vegetable box and so on and so forth, and finally leek box. All of them, whether they are homegrown or wild, can be made into delicious and nutritious vegetable boxes in my mom's hands.
Steamed Dumplings
People in the north of the love of dumplings need no introduction, in addition to the most common boiled dumplings, our side of the most distinctive when the steamed dumplings. Steamed dumplings have meat and vegetarian, meat filling is a common dumplings steamed eating method, vegetarian filling is not quite the same, the general head of the large stuffed, stuffed with common ingredients: sweet potato vermicelli, thousand sheets of tofu, chives, these. On our side of the street most of the breakfast store is steamed dumplings, visible popularity is how high.
Spring Cakes
Spring cakes were first eaten as a dietary custom at the beginning of spring, but there is always a reason to eat them. The dough for spring pancakes is rolled out very thin and cooked in a pan. To be authentic, spring pancakes are rolled with shredded potatoes, radishes, and mustard greens, and dipped in homemade bean paste when biting into them. The pastry is very chewy because it is branded, and the shredded vegetables wrapped inside are crisp and flavorful, plus the rich soy sauce makes for a very satisfying bite.
Water tattoo buns
Similar to spring pancakes, these are thinly rolled and steamed, and they are also rolled and dipped in sauce.
Mixed Buns
Mixed flour buns, corn flour, sorghum flour, sweet potato flour, etc. in accordance with a certain proportion of flour made, corn flour made out of yellow, sorghum flour made out of red and black, sweet potatoes, because there are red and white heart, so the color of the steamed out is not the same. When I was a child, I didn't like to eat, my mother in order to let us eat, no less than to get some colorful fresh buns.
The other is the most common buns steamed rolls
Light staple food is not enough, an excellent breakfast how can less soup, dry and sparse with is a nutritious breakfast ah.
Rare rice
Note: Rare rice and congee are two different things Oh, rare rice is only a batter son of rare rice, the flour stirred into a paste, the pot of water boiled and poured into the batter, stirring vigorously, the last pot is all batter rare rice. It's not the same as porridge. Usually put sweet potatoes, beans, etc. (there are red taro rice, broad bean rice, corn grain rice, red taro rice, red bean rice, cowpea rice, pea rice, soybean rice, etc., usually according to the type of crops ripening in the farmland to decide what to put in the rice.)
This noodle soup is available all year round, and in winter my family cooks a big pot of it for breakfast every day.
Noodle Soup
Have you seen the movie "Little Forest" directed by Junichi Mori in Japan, Ichiko's bowl of noodle soup made in winter cured many people. Our noodle soup here is a little different from noodle soup, but it's just as warm and healing. In recent days, we have two new babies at home, and I worry about what to feed them every day. My mom woke me up with one sentence. She said, "When you were small, I fed you with noodle soup, and the puppies are just like children, even if their teeth are not fully grown, the nutrients from the soup can be absorbed." I suddenly realized, began to learn to make lump soup, every morning to make a pot, I a bowl, the two baby dogs a bowl. They are now fat and healthy.
Hot and Spicy Soup
We also call it salty rice here, and the soup is usually chicken or bone broth, thickened with cornstarch, and topped with fresh vegetables, tomatoes, and eggs, which is best eaten with biscuits.
Mixed Noodles
Why are mixed noodles eaten in the morning? This question I confused for a long time, although the North, but in my concept, noodles and so on should belong to the lunch. Later eat more also do not care so much, after all, the morning to eat miscellaneous food can regulate the stomach and intestines. Miscellaneous noodles are generally made with wheat flour and soybean flour, a bowl of miscellaneous noodles flavor is not to see whether to put sesame leaves, sesame leaves miscellaneous noodles can be said to be the memories of the old generation. Because it is more difficult to do, now usually to the stalls to eat.
Tofu brain (must be salted)
Tofu brain here is not the same as elsewhere, it is eaten with spicy soup. Half of the bowl of hot soup is served, and the remaining half is poured over the tofu brains and mixed with a spoon. Ever since I heard that eating tofu brain can make you smart, I especially love to eat it, but eating it with the hot soup is definitely the best way to eat it in my mind.
Sa Soup
This sa soup has a very long history and is now listed as an intangible cultural heritage. Because most of the ingredients used are meat, wheat and rice grains, regular consumption of sa can strengthen the body, spleen and stomach. In winter, there is one more dish to prevent the cold and keep you warm.
Beef Soup
We must add some sweet potato vermicelli in the beef soup here, I guess it is probably because of the local production of sweet potato vermicelli, so the buns and dumplings box to put sweet potato vermicelli as a filling, and even in the broth should be added to the sweet potato flour. But the sweet potato flour beef soup is really good, the inside of the fans sucked the soul of beef soup, sucked into the mouth incredibly smooth.
Various kinds of congee
Here, congee and rice are two different things. Anyone who puts rice grains in it is congee, while those who make it with flour paste are thin rice.
Rice porridge, pumpkin porridge, sweet potato porridge, corn porridge, etc., porridge is the most unpopular kind of soup, usually in order to save energy to cook porridge, but the ingredients, fire mastered well, porridge is also a very good breakfast Oh.
Breakfast is not fried food, usually eat home-made dishes. For example, home pickled salted garlic cloves, mustard greens, chili dishes, soy beans, etc., these are particularly common, do a time can eat a long time, in the countryside, every family will have a vegetable jar, which are home made pickles.
There are also things like chili paste, stinky tofu milk, etc. that can only be eaten occasionally when you think of them.
No matter where we are, what we crave most is our hometown
There's a saying in Breakfast in China that if you get up early, you'll find your hometown.
Go to bed now and get up early tomorrow for a nice breakfast.
