It is bulging in the middle and has distinct layers. It is popular with diners for its large meat, tender outside, fragrant but not greasy, and convenient to eat. Senior official dajia, a guest from afar, arrived in Yanjin for the first time. Besides delicious food and wine, it is also essential to have a few fires. It's always a pity that foreigners don't taste Yanjin fire when they go to Yanjin, for example, they don't eat mutton and bread in soup when they go to Xi 'an, roast chicken when they go to hua county, and they don't visit the Forbidden City when they visit Beijing. Fire has been burning in Yanjin for a long time. Nowadays, walking in Yanjin, streets, restaurants and restaurants, you can find the fragrance of burning everywhere. Employees are male or female, old or young, or husband and wife partners, or mentoring, or relying on restaurants, or setting up independent street stalls. According to rough statistics, there are no fewer than 1 burning stalls in the county. Especially in the well-known stalls such as Dongjie Vegetable Market, Xijie Mutton Roast Shop and Sanlizhuang Yixing Food City, "there are many people who eat, but few people who are born", and there are often queues for it. There are also many people who come late and regret to return. According to reports, the practice of authentic Yanjin fire burning is quite particular. Flour, oil and seasoning must be of the best quality, and the water for flour mixing is "water for cutting hands" in winter, "water for yin and yang" in summer and "water for topping hands" in spring and autumn. When it's hot, add two or two ounces of water to a catty of flour, and when it's cold, add half a catty of water to a catty of flour. When kneading flour, you should "wake up" violently, so that there is no water left in the basin, and the flour is not covered with dough. The flour agent is moderate in size, and it is required to fall tightly and slow down when hitting, and the hands should not leave the oil and the noodles should not stick to the hands. Stretch the dough as long as a belt and about inches wide, then roll it into a gyro shape, and flatten it after rotary grinding. In case of fire, the middle will naturally expand and bulge. There should always be a deep deposit of oil in the furnace tank. After the fire is put into the furnace, it needs to be smoked with strong fire, smothered with slow fire, brushed with oil from time to time, and released when cooked, and it takes a quarter of an hour to get out of the furnace. Burning with stuffing is also a major feature of Yanjin burning. The stuffing is finely chopped pork belly (mostly mutton for Hui people), fine salt, chopped green onion, cumin and seasoning noodles, which are evenly mixed and spread out before being involved. After the fire is cooked, the buyer must make a small crack from the side to radiate the heat in the shell, otherwise it will be too hot to eat. In recent years, the popular "Jiashi" fire in Yanjin has enriched the contents of the fire, or eggs or beef, ham sausage, bean curd skewers or mung bean sprouts are cut and spread on the stove surface, supplemented with refined salt, chopped green onion, sesame oil, cumin, sweet noodle sauce, Chili noodles and pepper. After frying, the burning ring surface is cut in half and sandwiched in the heart, with a sweet and moderate taste, spicy and refreshing flavor. Yanjin fire is not only beautiful in color, fragrance and price, but also cheap, not to mention dignitaries, even if it is promoted to Wang, there is no doubt that it is overwhelmed On the streets of Yanjin, it is common to work as a rickshaw puller to sell pulp. One person burns a bowl of Huimian Noodles, and his face is full of oil. Three or two yuan is enough to fill his belly. There are also boys and girls who love snacks and those who go to work, or they are in a hurry, or they can't bear the trouble of washing dishes, so they buy a "sandwich" and burn it. They eat and walk, and they are in a hurry and enjoy it, which has become a flowing landscape on the streets of Yanjin. Burning has enriched the life of Yanjin people, enriched this hot spot and improved the popularity of this third-class county. Now burning has become an indispensable part of Yanjin food culture.
