Spanish mackerel jiaozi
Speaking of Weihai cuisine, you can't miss Spanish mackerel jiaozi. Spanish mackerel jiaozi is very famous in Jiaodong area, especially those fishing villages or restaurants near the sea in Weihai. With unique conditions, most of them choose fresh Spanish mackerel that has just landed as stuffing, which is really delicious. Many restaurants will also innovate the use of cuttlefish juice and noodles to make dumpling skins, which tastes even more unique.
Bayujiaozi, like our usual cooking of leek eggs or pork cabbage jiaozi, also needs to mix the flour first. Generally, mix the flour first and then adjust the stuffing. Add some salt to the flour with warm water, make dough, and let it stir at room temperature for 2 minutes. During this time, we can prepare the Bayuquan stuffing.
We are skillful with Spanish mackerel stuffing. We prepare a small bowl, add a handful of pepper, onion and ginger into it, pour boiling water into it and set it aside. Then we start to make Spanish mackerel. The secret that Spanish mackerel doesn't smell fishy is to remove the internal organs and black lines and wash them clean. This is very important. After washing, we can start to make fish with a spoon and scrape them off layer by layer.
after it is done, put it on the chopping board and start chopping the stuffing. After chopping it into mud, we put it into the basin. At this time, use our filter screen to pour pepper water into the Spanish mackerel stuffing, stir the chopsticks along the pointer to make a slurry, then add a handful of leeks and stir it evenly. When everything is ready, we start to wrap jiaozi, and the skin is thinner. We wrap the Spanish mackerel stuffing in it, and it will be cooked 1 minute after boiling. The Spanish mackerel is particularly cooked. The cooked Spanish mackerel jiaozi is full of soup, and it is even more delicious when dipped in garlic. Dry fried small yellow croaker

Corn flour cake is served with chirping salted fish and pickled melon seeds, and a bowl of corn flour porridge, which is simply delicious. In the past, when richer people ground corn soup (corn flour for steaming slices), they put some soybeans in it, and the steamed slices were big and mysterious, and they were fragrant and sweet to bite. Soybeans are more valuable than corn, and some frugal people are often reluctant to put beans. The steamed pieces are hard and the taste is much worse. Fried sea crab

During the Spring Festival, every family should steam a big cake. From New Year's Eve onwards, all families have to offer sacrifices to the kitchen god, the god of wealth, the gods of heaven and earth, the family hall (also known as the bodhisattva) and the ancestors (also known as the old man's mother), etc., and the offerings of this sacrifice are indispensable. Weihai people make jujube cakes in the New Year for good luck. "Jujube" is homophonic with "early", so the jujube cake contains the meaning of "early hair" and "great hair". Whether looking forward to a prosperous career or eager for a developed business, in short, the word "fat" really contains the good wishes of Jiaodong people to pray for a better life. Corn
It is absolutely necessary to go to Weihai farmhouse in summer. A large iron pot is full of corn, and the corn is all cooked in an hour. A plate of big sauce, a handful of green onion leaves, a little pickles, a pair of chopsticks and a pot of corn is just a bite, and it takes ten minutes for the corn to break off and enter the pot.
