Nianbadu gourmet
Before I left for Badu last year, I asked my friends in Quzhou, my hometown, "What special food can you recommend?" Going out to eat means a lot to me. After all, the only food in the world can't live up to it!

Nianbadu Ancient Town, located in Jiangshan, Zhejiang Province, is a county-level city under the jurisdiction of Quzhou City, Zhejiang Province, located at the junction of Zhejiang, Fujian and Jiangxi provinces, and is an important market town in the border areas in history.

If you want to ask the origin of the name of Nianbadu, you have to start from the Northern Song Dynasty. According to legend, in the Northern Song Dynasty, Xining was in the fourth year, that is, 107 1 year, and Jiangshan was its capital for 44 years, ranking 28th here, hence the name Nianbadu, which has been used ever since.

Compared with Nanxun, Zhouzhuang, Wuzhen, Tongli and other famous ancient towns, Erbadu ancient town has a completely different style, even a little mysterious. It can be said that it is still hidden in the mountains, and even called "a dream in the mountains" by scholars.

Unable to resist the repeated "temptation" of my friends, I finally bought a high-speed rail ticket on New Year's Day holiday and went excitedly. Before I left, I specially asked my friends to recommend local delicacies. My friends actually reported seven or eight dishes, such as Nianbadu Yanpi wonton, Nianbadu Tongluo cake, Nianbadu stewed ribs with dried bamboo shoots, Nianbadu dried bacon fish and Nianbadu Fengxi fish. The last one is the bean curd with an eight-degree wind furnace.

I remember it was past lunch time when we arrived that day. After we put down our bags at the hotel, the proprietress took us in through the side door. After seven turns and eight bends, we arrived at fengxi old street, which is also the official start of our eight-year tofu review tour!

Fengxi Old Street is the main street of Nianbadu, lined with neat shops. Just like the pattern of ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River, it is generally the style of front shop and back house, and Lin Xingyou's tofu shop is "hidden" in this old street.

Lin Xingyou is the inheritor of Nianbadu tofu. He has been making tofu for more than 30 years, but this tofu shop is older. Tofu Workshop originally belonged to Wang Jingchun, an old branch secretary. It is said that Wang Jiazu has been making tofu for almost a hundred years, but the descendants of the Wang family are unwilling to inherit their ancestral business. At that time, young and honest Lin Xingyou often came to help the Wangs tofu mill, so old Wang Shuji took a fancy to Lin Xingyou and wanted to pass the tofu mill on to him.

After Lin Xingyou took over the tofu shop from the old branch secretary, it was more than 30 years since it was opened, and he also made the tofu shop more and more prosperous. Even Japanese businessmen came to Nianbadu, impressed by Lin Xingyou's skill of making tofu by hand, and even praised the taste of Nianbadu tofu.

In Jiangshan dialect, tofu is pronounced like "Fu Tou". Locals must eat tofu for luck in the New Year, and the best tofu in Jiangshan is in the eighth capital of the year.

Walking into Fengxi Old Street and strolling on the heavy and distant bluestone board, you can see several stoves and casseroles on the roadside. In 2008, DuDu people added mushrooms, ribs, winter bamboo shoots and various seasonings to tofu for slow stew. Tourists pass by, spend a few dollars to buy a bowl, or sit or stand, while looking at this ancient street, old houses, pavilions, while savoring the taste of this century, very comfortable!

The delicious tofu in Nianbadu is attributed to the local raw materials. First of all, Tian Chengdou is unique to Jiangshan, not only fresh, but also safe and nutritious. In addition, good tofu also needs the nourishment of soup, and only local mountain spring water can cook an authentic pot of wind-oven tofu.

With good materials, it is useless without good skills to support it. Making a good piece of tofu is easier said than done, especially now there are few craftsmen who can control their temper like Master Lin. Screening, cleaning, soaking, grinding soybeans, and finally making tofu, every step is extremely elegant, and there is no room for carelessness.

It is essential to eat tofu when visiting Nian Ba Du, especially in autumn and winter. Stewed tofu with wild boar in Nianbadu is a local specialty for tourists like me.

Some people say that "beauty goes with food", but it is impolite for people in the capital to eat tofu in the eighth year. The shopkeeper will set up a big iron pot at the door of the store, which is also the boss's trick. The pork unique to Jiangshan is stewed in a large iron pot, and the tofu is soft outside and tender inside. When cooking, I added a handful of green garlic, which made the passing tourists salivate and couldn't help but want to stop and eat!

Nianbadu is a famous historical and cultural town in China, and it is also listed as a national 5A-level tourist attraction. In addition to the famous tofu in Nianba, Nianba has many distinctive cultural labels, such as "Hundred Family Names", "Four Families", "Nine Dialects" and "Hometown of Folk Songs". These are all waiting for everyone to find out for themselves!

I will share it with you today. Where shall we eat and drink next time?

Thanks for reading. Have a good appetite! Have a good appetite!
