What is the most essential dish in a rural banquet? The place is different, and the most indispensable dish is definitely different. Take our place as an example, I feel that there are many differences between when I was a child and now, but there is a dish called soup, which is indispensable for our rural banquet, and that is meatball soup. As long as it is a big table for weddings and funerals in rural areas, this is the most impossible dish here. Meatball soup

meatball soup, also known as meatball soup, why is this soup the most indispensable dish in our rural areas, or is it because of its beautiful meaning? The meatball can represent both reunion and perfection, the reunion of the whole family, and the perfection of things, which has a beautiful meaning. In addition, during the Spring Festival here, every household has to fry meatballs, so it is one of the most valued special foods in northern Anhui.

meatball soup is very particular when served, that is, the last one is served, which means the whole thing is finished successfully. In addition, our service here is cold first and then hot, and meatball soup tastes sour, and finally it can tidy up the intestines and stomach, which makes people more comfortable, especially in winter, which can keep warm and freeze-proof, and is also conducive to the guests returning home. Braised pork

When I was young, there was another dish that we had to serve in this area, and that was braised pork. In the past, people basically slaughtered pigs by themselves, and the meat was very fresh. After being processed by the chef, the purple skin was shiny and the meat stew was very bad. At that time, I was still young, and there were not many opportunities to make a big table. My father basically put two or three pieces of braised pork on me with steamed bread every time I came back from making a big table. Now, of course, braised pork will be served, but seriously, I always feel that I can't eat the taste of that childhood! Braised pork and pickles

Another dish is essential, and that is "braised pork and pickles". Unlike the "braised pork with plum vegetables" in Guangdong, the braised pork here is made of pickled vegetables dried by local potherb mustard. Pickles can be eaten as breakfast side dishes at ordinary times, or they can be cooked with pork or shredded pork with pickles, which are especially delicious.

The method of roasting pork with pickled vegetables mainly uses pork belly with skin and potherb mustard as raw materials. The general method is to boil pork belly until it is half cooked, apply soy sauce, sugar and other seasonings, and then fry it in an oil pan until the skin is sugar-colored. Then, cut the meat into long pieces, put it in a bowl with the skin facing down, put the chopped potherb in the bowl, steam it in a pot until the meat is soft, take it out and buckle it on a plate.

In the local area, no matter whether the family is good or bad, as long as it is a wedding, funeral or wedding, the banquet is very formal, and all the necessary dishes are indispensable. The most traditional "Ten Seas" is sprinkled.

It's a shower mat with ten dishes in sea bowls, which is also called running water mat locally. The ten dishes are one bowl of vermicelli, two bowls of braised pork and three bowls of dumplings, and the others are: qianzi, shrimp soup, roast chicken, tiled fish, salted goose and duck, braised pork and thousands of fried vegetables. One village, one custom, slightly different in some places, is deeply loved by local people, and the deduction of meat is even more unpleasant. Conclusion

Generally speaking, meatball soup on the big table in rural areas here is the most indispensable soup dish. Now that living conditions are good, the dishes in rural banquets are also enriched. In recent years, the most indispensable things in our banquets are basically chicken, fish and elbow, but the tradition of meatball soup has not changed!
