Next, let's feel the elegance of Hunan farmhouse meal together. Every dish is famous in the local area. Come and have a look!
1, fried bacon in Xiangxi
Speaking of farm dishes, bacon is the representative of Hunan farm dishes. Where can't I eat bacon? But Xiangxi bacon can be said to be very famous. The "Shoubazi" in the bacon industry is the most authentic. How can you miss such delicious food when you come to Hunan?
In Hunan, "bacon is delicious", but bacon has a high status in Zhangjiajie! When guests come to your home, you must take out bacon to meet them. Fat but not greasy bacon, smoked with charcoal fire, fat and thin, with garlic moss, can be served several times in the farmer's big oil pan, with a fragrant smell, which is very enjoyable! Visitors who have tasted this farm dish should take a few Jin of bacon home!
2, pepper eggplant preserved eggs
I heard that foreigners can't imagine the taste of "preserved egg eggplant", and no Hunan person can refuse! Pepper, eggplant and preserved eggs are the most classic appetizers of Hunan farm food, which can "dry" three bowls of rice in one bite.
Chili, eggplant and preserved eggs are the limited tastes of Changsha, and this dish can show the charm of Hunan cuisine. As long as there is a dish on the table, rice will suffer. Commonly used ingredients are eggplant, pepper and preserved eggs. These three common ingredients taste great together!
3. Fried beef with vegetable oil in the village
No bowl of rice can escape this "fried beef with village vegetable oil", which is also a very classic Hunan dish. The beef in the village is fresh and tender, retaining the original flavor of the beef. It can be said to be a must with Hunan spicy food in Hunan!
Super authentic country food, fried beef with vegetable oil is very fragrant, and beef moistened with vegetable oil is exaggerated. This smell is the homesickness of many Hunan people.
The practice of beef is very particular, and it will get old after a few more frying, but this farm dish has brought the taste of beef to the extreme.
4, perilla bullfrog
You can't imagine Hunan people's love for "perilla". You'd better add a little perilla to every dish! Perilla frutescens is a kind of rhizome plant, which is known as an edible "high quality" plant. It can be used not only for cooking, but also as a medicinal material, which has the effect of keeping out cold and eliminating dampness.
The taste of cooking is also very unique! In Hunan, the word "perilla" can be seen everywhere, such as perilla peach, perilla fish and perilla bullfrog. I have to talk about perilla bullfrog, which is a Hunan farmhouse dish that "awakens the soul".
The thick aroma of perilla wrapped the fleshy bullfrog. Perilla is the essence of this dish. The meat of bullfrog is tender and tender. It is accompanied by the aroma of perilla and has an endless aftertaste. It is said that perilla needs to taste this peasant flavor in Hunan to be authentic!
5, Hengyang oil tofu
Hunan is a veritable "tofu" province, with rice tofu, stinky tofu, oily tofu, moldy tofu and so on. Stinky tofu is famous for its "stink" and is famous all over the country. As long as you talk about Hunan, you can immediately think of stinky tofu. In fact, stinky tofu also has a "good sister" oil tofu, which is "shy" but the taste is definitely beyond your imagination!
The softness of Hengyang oil tofu is its characteristic, and every bite is its soul. Although it is called oily tofu, it is not "oily" at all. It is fresh and tender tofu from farmers, but let it absorb enough soup in the pot and let the soup bloom in your mouth. It's delicious!
6. Buckle meat in the village
Many people call it "braised pork with plum vegetables", but in Hunan, it has a special name "braised pork in the village". Speaking of the braised pork in the village, it is still very strange. Everyone knows the braised pork in plum dishes! Its taste is soft and glutinous, and it is very characteristic of farmers when eaten with hot steamed bread! The meat is soft and sticky, and it feels "mushy" when eaten in the mouth.
Braised pork is fat and thin, and it melts in the mouth. Although braised pork looks a little fat, it doesn't feel greasy at all. The skin is very elastic, and some sour beans are more "top".
The hospitable "Xiang family" created a unique Hunan cuisine. How many people's taste buds have these "fragrant" smells evoked? How unforgettable the taste of Hunan is. What Hunan peasant flavors do you remember? Tell me in the comments section ~
