China is one of the countries with the most delicious food in the world. When it comes to Chinese food, people from every place can give a long list of food names, whether it is spicy from Sichuan and Chongqing, sweet from Jiangnan, or from the north.
Big fish, big meat, and exquisite soups in the south all represent the different cultures of each place. The delicacies in some places in China can start from the morning tea of ??the day, and the most famous morning tea culture is in Guangzhou. Guangzhou has a lot of delicacies.
A Southern favorite.
Guangzhou is also a very unique city. When walking on the road, you can often see people driving Maserati but wearing flip-flops and white vests going to the market to buy food. The popularity of Hong Kong dramas when I was a child also gave me a strong interest in Cantonese.
As an international metropolis, Guangzhou’s food is also sought after by people across the country and even overseas Chinese. Those Hong Kong-style restaurants, whether they are hotels or not, are always very popular.
When in Guangzhou, there will definitely be some must-eat delicacies, especially the Four Heavenly Kings of Cantonese-style morning tea.
The first dish is the must-order honey barbecued pork buns for Guangzhou morning tea. It is one of the most representative snacks in Guangdong and the first of the four kings of Cantonese morning tea.
Do you think barbecued pork buns are just ordinary buns?
The portion will definitely shock you. It’s bigger than ordinary pineapple oil, the outside is crispy, and the inside is the essence. The barbecued pork is juicy and soft, with alternating fat and thin, and a rich texture.
Honey-glazed barbecued pork buns are a delicacy that is deeply remembered by Cantonese people. Every time I don’t have a barbecued pork bun in my morning tea, I feel like something is missing.
The second dish is shrimp dumplings. The shrimp dumplings in Cantonese morning tea can be said to be like a work of art, so they are also called crystal shrimp dumplings. They were born in the early 20th century and have a history of a hundred years.
Traditional shrimp dumplings are half-moon shaped, with twelve pleats on one side. The original shrimp dumplings only contained shrimp meat. Later, in order to cater to more people's tastes, meat and bamboo shoots were also added, but the core
It's the springy shrimp meat. In the thin crystal skin, you can see the shrimp meat is ready to come out. When you take a bite, it is extremely fresh and tender.
The third dish is dry steamed siomai, which is the most popular among Cantonese-style morning tea. It is not only popular in Guangdong, but also in Guangxi.
Dry steamed siomai is a little different from the glutinous rice siomai in Jiangnan. It is made of wonton skin wrapped with fat and thin pork and shrimp. The ingredients are very solid. The thinner the skin, the more delicious it is. Take a bite and the plump pork and shrimp will make you feel delicious.
I still want to eat after taking one bite.
The fourth course is egg tarts. Generally, when we talk about egg tarts, we think of Portuguese egg tarts. Many people may think that the two egg tarts are similar. In fact, the egg tarts in Cantonese morning tea are very different from Portuguese egg tarts. The crust of Cantonese egg tarts is
It is mixed with pastry and bites like a cookie, while Portuguese egg tarts are made of clear pastry, a bit like mille-feuille. Cantonese egg tarts are also simpler to make than Cantonese egg tarts. They are also star desserts in Cantonese teahouses.
