Speaking of Jinhua bone pot, Jinhua locals and outsiders who often come to Jinhua should know it. Because Jin Chinese often choose to entertain guests or friends in the famous streets in the south of the Yangtze River!
Jinhua bone pot is a delicious casserole stew. It uses more than 20 kinds of traditional Chinese medicines and spices, and after careful preparation, it is boiled with pig bones (stick bones) for more than 20 hours to make a nourishing and health-preserving dish with unique taste and affordable price.
Later, the owner of Bao Zhuang developed many kinds of Jinhua Bao, including snake Bao, dragon and phoenix Bao, pigeon Bao, old duck Bao, pickled fish Bao, mushroom Bao and so on. Of course, Jinhua Bone Pot plays the leading role.
Jinhua Pot really flourished in the late 1970s. At that time, it was the time when Wenzhou people began to go to the whole country to promote their own Wenzhou goods. All people and goods entering and leaving Wenzhou and Lishui will transit in Jinhua, and people from all over the country will stay in Jinhua when they go to Wenzhou and Lishui. Therefore, Jinhua Railway Station became the transportation hub of Jin Liwen at that time.
A little older people should have an impression of the prosperity of Jinhua Railway Station at that time. In fact, Jinhua Railway Station was not only prosperous at that time. In my impression, people are moving 24 hours a day.
At that time, the South Bus Station and the Railway Station were on the same Zhongshan Road, less than 500 meters apart. Every day, businesses stop on this street with a total length of less than 1000 meters. Shops on both sides of the street are open 24 hours a day, and restaurants and food stalls abound.
At that time, we didn't know what hot pot was, and Jinhua bone pot came into being under such an atmosphere. After years of polishing, it has become a famous dish in Jinhua, and created a variety of Jinhua pot series, covering all parts of Zhejiang, as well as Jiangsu, Shanghai, Hunan and Guangdong. Jinhua hot pot is very famous and its business is quite prosperous.
In recent years, Chongqing Hotpot, Macao Doulao and Haidilao have become popular all over the country, and Jinhua is no exception. Coupled with the demolition of the old Jinhua Railway Station, Bao Zhuang Street in Jinhua has lost its former prosperity after several relocations.
I haven't eaten Jinhua pot for a long time. On a whim that day, the Xianxian couple made an appointment with friends to relive the taste of the bone pot.
After ordering the dishes, the boss scooped the bones and soup stewed with traditional Chinese medicine for a long time into the casserole, then added thousands of pieces and big oil bubbles, set the fire on fire, and then sprinkled with chopped green onion, ready to serve!
There is a hole in the middle of the dining table. A small coal stove was used at first, and then a small gas stove was used. Now it's more refreshing, and an induction cooker is installed directly in the middle of the table.
After the bone pot was served on the table, the waiter opened the induction cooker and provided us with disposable gloves and straws. The goods looked at these objects and said strangely, "Hehe, now it's so advanced, and it sucks bone marrow with a straw."
Yes, the main essence of eating a bone pot is to suck the bone marrow out of the bone. They all say that you can make up what you eat, so there has always been a saying that you can make up calcium by eating bones.
Then the clerk brought us fresh peppers, soy sauce, vinegar and other seasonings, and we also ordered some side dishes such as lotus root slices, Flammulina velutipes and coriander.
As soon as the pot opened, the delicious bone soup went straight into our hearts, and we couldn't wait to eat it. Drinking fragrant bone soup, chewing stewed meat and sucking delicious bone marrow, we are intoxicated in this long-lost delicacy.
We two women are still elegant, slowly sucking the bone marrow in the trunk bone with a straw, but this cargo still grabs the bone stick in the trunk and sucks hard at the bone hole with its mouth, making a loud "before" sound. He shouted as he ate:
"It will be addictive, it will be addictive." After a while, he was sweating all over. My best friend and I also have thin sweat on our foreheads.
Looking at the pile of bone residue and a little soup left in the pot, the goods wiped their mouths with satisfaction: "It's delicious, but it's also very laborious. Look at me, I am sweating, and eating is actually a very tiring thing! "
Oh, I see, so that's where the word "hard" comes from.
