What's delicious about Minnan cuisine?
Vinegar meat: this is the most classic meat-eating practice in rural areas of southern Fujian. It looks like a little crispy meat in the north, and it is a dish that every family has to cook on holidays in rural areas. Fried five spices: this is also a famous point in Xiamen, with a special flavor, which is suitable for both table and wine. Mainly pork belly, cut into rectangular pieces, mixed with sliced flat fish, shallots and water chestnut, mixed with potato powder, monosodium glutamate, soy sauce and spiced powder, then rolled into a stick with bean skin, fried to golden brown, fished out and cut into small pieces, and served on a plate. Dipped in various seasonings, it tastes fragrant, crisp and crisp. Radish cake is not only a favorite snack in Guangdong, but also one of the essential foods for festivals and sacrifices in southern Fujian. Minnan radish cake is slightly different from Cantonese radish cake. Although they are steamed with sticky rice noodles and shredded radish as the main materials, the auxiliary materials in Minnan radish cake are more abundant. In addition to sticky rice noodles and shredded radish, diced bacon, dried shrimps and crispy shallots are added, which is richer in content and stronger in taste. Taro bag: Taro paste is used as the stuffing of the bag. This should be a rare practice in other places. Because South Fujian is rich in betel nut taro, people in South Fujian also like taro and staple food. Mustard rice: salty dry rice is a characteristic of southern Fujian, especially mustard rice. In the past, at home, as long as someone asked for help, it was always a beggar. Peanut soup: This is my favorite! ! It is a unique sweet Tang home in Xiamen, sweet and refreshing, nourishing and moistening the lungs. Xiamen people love to eat peanuts, and there is a saying that "the flowers bloom above, but the results below, and adults and children love to eat nails until they die", which vividly illustrates the degree to which peanuts are loved. This peanut soup is the most famous peanut dessert in Xiamen. No matter how foreign merchants imitate it, they can only finalize the design at most. Salted eight-treasure rice: Similar to the sweet eight-treasure rice in the north, the salty eight-treasure rice in southern Fujian also has eight kinds of materials, generally dried oysters, dried shrimps, mushrooms, peanuts, scallops and meat. At the same time, because the rice it chooses is white rice, not glutinous rice in sweet eight-treasure rice, it will not feel indigestion even if it is eaten too much.
