Shaanxi famous snacks have a long history. As early as the Chongqi period, Xi 'an had a "Tianxilou" specializing in mutton paomo, which was quite influential in the northwest. The basic production process is as follows: first, use high-quality beef (sheep) and beef (sheep) bones, add spices such as pepper, star anise, tsaoko and cinnamon, and put them in a pot to cook until the soup is crisp and rotten. Mix the dough with high-quality water, bake it into a "tiger back chrysanthemum heart" and break it into large pieces. Add thick soup to wok, add appropriate amount of water to boil, add chopped cooked beef (sheep) meat and appropriate amount of wet vermicelli to cook slightly, then pour steamed buns, add seasoning to cook for 1-2 minutes, and pour the cooked sheep oil into a bowl. Serve with sugar garlic, Chili sauce, sesame oil and coriander. According to legend, beef mutton soup evolved from the ancient "beef mutton soup" in 1 1 century BC. In the Western Zhou Dynasty, "beef and sheep soup" was listed as a "gift" for emperors and princes. According to the Book of Song Dynasty, in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, Mao Xiu presented delicious beef and sheep soup to Song Wudi, and Emperor Wu was awarded the title of Taishigong. Later, he was promoted to Doctor Guanglu of Shangshu. There is also an interesting legend that Zhao Kuangyin, the Emperor of the Song Dynasty, was trapped in Chang 'an before he proclaimed himself emperor, and lived a life of starvation all day. One day, he came to a store where beef and mutton were being cooked. The shopkeeper felt sorry for him, so he told him to break his dry buns, then poured him a spoonful of hot broth and cooked it thoroughly on the fire. Zhao Kuangyin wolfed down his food and thought it was the best food in the world. Later, Zhao Kuangyin put on a yellow robe and became an emperor. One day, when he passed by Chang 'an, he still didn't forget the beef and mutton buns he had eaten here in those years. Wu purposely found this store to eat beef and mutton buns in soup, which was delicious, better than delicacies, and rewarded the owner of this store. As soon as the story of the emperor eating steamed buns spread, beef and mutton became a famous snack on Chang 'an Avenue. Su Dongpo, a great writer in the Northern Song Dynasty, once wrote a hymn: "There is bear wax in the dragon's stomach, and Qin only cooks mutton soup." In the second year from Tang Suzong to German (AD 757), the Tang Dynasty army and the borrowed "Da Shi" army seized two cities from Liangzhu, and together they ended the "An Shi Rebellion". With Tang Gaozong's permission, some soldiers were allowed to station in Chang 'an. "Big food" soldiers often carry a kind of food similar to "Naan" in marching and fighting, which is called "Zhuermu". Marching and fighting are protracted, and the "bamboo wood" carried by soldiers often dries up and is difficult to swallow. they

Mix it with mutton and mutton soup, which is the embryonic form of "paomo". With the increasing contact between "Da Shi" soldiers and local people, the production method of "Zhuermu" has also spread from the military camp to the market, and has long been one of the staple foods of Muslim people in Xi 'an today. 1000 years ago, through the continuous development and innovation of people in Xi 'an Square, "Paomo" has been greatly improved in color, fragrance, taste and shape, and has become a favorite food for all people. "Thirty million people roared in unison in the Qin Dynasty, and a bowl of mutton was beaming", which is a vivid portrayal of Shaanxi people. There are four cooking methods for making steamed buns: dry soaking (without soup), oral soup (after eating a mouthful of soup), water siege (drinking more soup) and going alone (eating steamed buns and drinking soup). Before eating, break the "steamed bread" like soybeans and give it to the chef for cooking. When eating, you should choose the orientation, pay attention to nibbling and avoid stirring to maintain the umami and original flavor. In the meantime, you can add Chili sauce to stimulate your appetite and eat coriander to keep your breath fresh. In order to avoid the greasy taste of beef and mutton in steamed bread, sugar and garlic can be added to help fight again. Drinking a bowl of refined broth after a meal will make you feel more fragrant and energetic.
