There is a Yimeng Mountain in Shandong, which is a famous old revolutionary base area and the birthplace of Yimeng Mountain Minor. In the humanistic concept, it refers to the geographical area with Mengshan Mountain System and Yishui River Basin as geological coordinates, while in the concept of tourism brand, it refers to Yimeng Mountain Tourist Area, a national 5A-level tourist area composed of Yishan Mountain and Mengshan Mountain. Yimeng Mountain has good air and is a natural oxygen bar. The water quality of Yimeng Mountain is good, and there are kangyang hot springs at the foot of the mountain. It is this good mountain, good water and profound humanities that make Yimeng Mountain's cuisine unique. To sum up, one * * * has five local characteristics, which are worth a trip to Yimeng Mountain for them.
Yimeng Mountain covers three prefecture-level cities, namely Linyi, Zibo and Weifang. In Linyi, where Mengshan Scenic Area is located, the most famous food is bachelor chicken. It is characterized by bright red color, wide juice, strong taste, fresh and mellow fragrance and rich medicinal fragrance. Its name is also very direct. The fried chicken shop opened by the founder Fu Mou mainly cooks Mengshan rooster, and it tastes delicious and has a special flavor. Because the staff of the fried chicken shop are all men and the materials are all roosters, they call this dish "light chicken", which is "bachelor chicken".
It is said that the exquisite bachelor chickens are all local farmers, who eat pine seeds and drink mountain spring water, and are raised in the barren hills and mountains, adding a variety of Chinese medicine ingredients. It is also very enjoyable to have another big bun or a single cake dipped in soup.
The second kind is an egg, but it is a wild egg in Yimeng Mountain. Compared with ordinary eggs, it is much smaller and has higher nutritional value. Eggs are very common, but the wild eggs in Yimeng Mountain are easy to identify because of their distinctive appearance, and other varieties are not easy to impersonate. It's good to eat this kind of eggs in the most original water.
The third kind is mutton soup. As we all know, Shandong people have a deep love for mutton soup. In Yimeng Mountain area, there is also the habit of eating fu sheep. Yes, the meaning is to eat sheep in dog days, which is something new in the country. After all, most places drink mutton soup in cold winter. "Eating sheep in the dog days" can actually be traced back to the Yao and Shun period. There is even a folk saying that "a bowl of soup for a sheep does not require a doctor to prescribe a prescription". Every year during the Fu Yang Festival, the Guimeng Scenic Area will also carry out the selection of sheep kings and the custom of eating mutton soup for one yuan. It can be said that the mutton soup has its own style.
rooster, egg and mutton soup, if the first three ingredients are very common, everyone should have no opinion. The next two kinds may be heavy, even full of "wildness", and foreign tourists need some courage to eat them. On Mengshan Mountain, there is a special kind of scorpion. The common scorpion in general life has six claws, but this kind of scorpion has eight claws, plus a pair of pliers, * * * ten claws, which is called "Mengshan scorpion". It is a valuable Chinese herbal medicine, which has the miraculous effects of expelling poison, preventing cancer and treating diseases. Therefore, when traveling to Yimeng Mountain, you must taste the fried scorpion in Mengshan Mountain. It may seem impossible to eat, but once you eat it, it will open the door to a new world!
When you first taste the scorpion, it is recommended to close your eyes and let the first entrance, and you will fall in love with this coke. Similar to it, there is also a kind of bee pupa. It is common to eat cicada pupa in Shandong, but I really only saw it in Yimeng Mountain. It's also hard to eat, but it's rich in protein, and its aftertaste is more fragrant than shrimp. If you like it, you must dig for it one after another.
How about it? I think everyone can accept the first three kinds of food, and I wonder if you have tried the last two kinds of original Yimeng Mountain food.
