My hometown is a quiet small county in Chuzhou, Anhui Province. There were no big changes in my hometown until I joined the army.
In recent years, with the development of the economy, development has begun in my hometown. Roads have been opened to traffic and buildings have been built. However, compared to big cities, the pace of life in my hometown is still slow, leisurely and comfortable.
If China is a big foodie empire, my hometown is the famous foodie hometown in the foodie empire. Everyone here loves to eat, and delicacies from the north and south come together here.
Let me share it with you below.
1. Leiguan Salted Duck If Nanjing is the hometown of salted duck and roast duck, then Lai'an, which is close to Nanjing, has also been influenced by Nanjing. However, there are still subtle differences in the taste of the duck. The duck of Lai'an is more tender.
The duck brine should also be lighter.
2. There is nothing that a meal of old goose pot in Shuikou can't solve. If it doesn't work, just have another meal.
Gatherings with relatives and friends, and entertaining guests and friends are essential, especially in winter. Serving a steaming pot of goose casserole is definitely a face-saving dish.
3. What dish is the freshest and most delicious when it comes to Tuncang fish pot stickers? There is no doubt that it is the fish pot stickers. Especially the fish pot stickers from Laian Tuncang Reservoir have the most authentic taste. A slightly spicy fish pot sticker will definitely satisfy you.
It was a worthwhile trip, and I was able to hold on to the wall after eating.
4. Zhangshan Dog Meat: Let me first state that I don’t eat dog meat. I was a good boy when I was a child. I lost my temper for the first time after my big black dog was beaten to death. My family couldn’t resist me, and in the end no one ate it.
, I buried it under a big tree with a diameter of nearly 80 centimeters by the fish pond at home.
But people in our county know that Zhangshan’s dog meat is the most authentic.
5. Laian Spring Rolls The most essential dish on the Spring Festival dinner table every year is spring rolls, which are often eaten away as soon as they are served.
Before the Chinese New Year, every family will buy some spring roll wrappers, prepare the fillings and fry them according to the taste when they go back. It is a great dish for the Spring Festival Eve dinner and for entertaining relatives and friends.
6. Laian Fruit Sweet Soup is an indispensable part of the banquet. It is often snatched up by children as soon as it is served. Nowadays, many places use canned fruits instead, or put a lot of fruits and wine. The sweet soup in my hometown is different.
It is made of small yuanxiao, sago, red dates, white fungus, oranges, etc. and then thickened with starch. It is sweet and sour.
7. Come to An’s Stir-fried Snails and order a plate of stir-fried snails, a few skewers, and a few bottles of beer. This is the perfect nightlife in a small town. I don’t know how many screws are eliminated in the small county every year. This was the most popular thing before the rise of crayfish.
As a late-night snack, it can still compete with crayfish.
8. Shuikou Feifeitiao. Other places sell ducks in four pieces. Only Shuikou sells the wings and claws together. It is also named Feifeitiao. Every time I go back to my hometown and drive by Shuikou, I buy two pairs as snacks.
