1. Bake cakes

I still remember when I was a child, every year in winter, when it began to get cold, everyone started to bake pancakes and cakes. The vat at home is full every year, so you can eat it all winter. Since childhood, flipping cakes has been accompanied by every winter, even a whole childhood.

The way to bake cakes is to grind them into flour with Gu Mi, make them into pulp, and make them in a special mold pot. The baked cakes are tender, crisp and delicious.

When I was young, I ate a lot every winter when I baked cakes and pancakes. Pancakes are rolled with green onions and dipped in sauce, especially for meals. Baked cakes are usually eaten together with fish soup boiled in a large iron pot. They are all small crucian carp in the river at home, which is ten centimeters long and stewed in a large pot. The cake is stained with fish soup, and I can't wait to swallow my tongue.

Second, croquettes and frozen tofu

Many people say that croquettes are not special, and they can be found everywhere. But what I'm talking about is definitely different from what you know. The main raw material of meatballs in Chengde is tofu, and the homemade brine is tofu. Speaking of tofu, let me run a question first. When I was a child, I made tofu at home by soaking soybeans the night before. At about five o'clock the next morning, I pushed the soaked beans and went to the stone mill to get the raw bean juice from the real stone mill.

When I get home, I boil water and bean juice in a large iron pan. Before ordering bean curd, I put out several bowls of bean juice, and then after boiling, I take out the bean skin several times. This bean skin usually enters my stomach. Then, when eating, the ordered tofu is usually called to the neighbors, and everyone eats it together. Let's slip the tofu and stir-fry the tofu. There is also the tofu directly cut into pieces, and then cut some chopped green onion, or pepper, add some salt, add some water or soy sauce, and the dip made is eaten. Especially dipped in Chili, the refreshing feeling makes my mouth water now.

The rest of the tofu is usually made into frozen tofu or meatballs. The tofu made with brine is different from the tofu sold now. After freezing, there will be many holes, which will become bigger, but it is still very porcelain. It is one of the indispensable accessories when making sauerkraut in winter.

meatballs are different from meatballs and flour meatballs, but tofu meatballs made of tofu. When I was a child, there were no snacks at home. This kind of meatballs can be eaten as snacks. Tofu balls are made by crushing tofu, adding various spices, salt, onion, ginger, minced garlic and other spices, saving them into balls and frying them in oil pan. The fried balls are crisp and tender, with crispy outside and fresh tofu inside.

Other vegetables can't be eaten in winter, but Chinese cabbage and sauerkraut are both in jars. Frozen tofu and meatballs are usually added to stewed noodles with sauerkraut, and meatballs after absorbing sauerkraut soup are even more delicious.

third, pot cake

pot cake is also a kind of food that is not a specialty, but it is also quite distinctive in Chengde. Pot cake is a variant of cake, which uses alkali to make dough, and its thickness is slightly thicker than that of sesame seed cake, and its size is similar to that of sesame seed cake. When I was a child, the dry pot cakes were really hard to swallow, so the pot cakes in Chengde were generally sugar pot cakes. Don't ask me how I made them, I don't know.

The ultimate skill in making pot cakes lies in the amount of alkaline noodles. The amount of alkaline noodles determines the delicious degree of pot cakes. Too much or too little is hard to swallow. And this skill, I still don't know.

IV. Silver mixed noodles

Silver mixed noodles are eaten at home in Chengde, and only mixed noodles or bean noodles are made, because there are mountains, waters and land in Chengde, and hardworking people will open up small farmland on the mountains, and beans will generally be planted here, and the output is enough for a family to eat for a year. Similarly, the output is not particularly large and does not belong to the economic scope, so the extra beans are all studied in various ways.

Silver-silk mixed noodles are such a kind of noodles. The most delicious noodles are mung bean noodles, which are strong and not as soft as ordinary noodles. With tomato marinade, or marinade made of other vegetables, you can eat two or three bowls at a time.

V. Big flat

Big flat is a kind of almond, and Chengde Lulu believes that many people know that Lulu almond dew is made of various almonds. At ordinary times, when you eat it at home, the most and best is the almond, which has the same name. Because it's big and flat.

In addition to directly drying and eating, there are various ways to eat, such as frying, frying, and wrapping sesame seeds. Almonds can relieve cough, so this snack is the only one that will not be controlled by parents.

In addition, almonds can also be made into almond oil. Besides eating, moistening the lungs and resisting cancer, almond oil can also be used for beautifying and nourishing the face.
