I remember a few days before the Chinese New Year, I went back to my hometown by bus, and my grandfather asked me to make a fried pile. I jumped three feet for joy.
So, grandpa took out flour and sugar, poured it into a big basin, added some water and stirred it repeatedly by hand. After mixing them evenly, grandpa asked me to knead them into balls. Grandpa made a demonstration first, put the mixed powder in his hand, and then gently rubbed it with both hands until it was kneaded into a sphere. I did as grandpa did. First, I took a little mixed powder and put it in my hand. So grandpa sprinkled a layer of white sesame seeds on it.
Everything is ready. Next, fry it in the pot. Grandpa put the oil in the pot. When the oil boils, fry them one by one in the pot. At first, the fried pile did not change. It slowly turns pale yellow and finally turns golden yellow. At this time, the fried pile can be eaten. I can't wait to pick up a piece and put it in my mouth. "Wow, it's so hot." I have a little bubble in my hand! Grandpa saw it and said with a smile, "Don't be in such a hurry. A watched pot never boils. Here is a pair of chopsticks. Let's eat with chopsticks! " I picked up chopsticks, picked up one and took a bite. "Well, it's delicious, a little sweet, but soft and fragrant." I really want to eat a second one after eating one, but I can't. I can't eat too much of the fried pile just out of the pot, or I'll get angry!
I like to eat local food, but I prefer to eat fried potato chips made by my grandfather. By chance, my father bought a bag of "Chongqing Odd Beans" from the supermarket. At first glance, I have a strong curiosity about the word "strange smell": what kind of smell is strange smell? In order to get the answer as soon as possible, I couldn't wait to open the bag, quickly took one and put it in my mouth to taste it carefully. The taste is really special. Since then, I have been fascinated by this special flavor of food.
Hudou, also called broad bean, is a specialty of Chongqing.
Chongqing's strange-flavored beans are unique in technology and flavor, combining hemp, spicy, sweet, salty and crisp, which is a must. It is as strong as mulberry, with moist color, sweet, crisp, delicious, spicy and salty, comfortable and refreshing, and it has a wonderful imagination besides intuition when enjoying it. The strange smell is rich and complementary, hence the name strange smell.
Chongqing's strange taste beans also have the functions of invigorating spleen and appetizing, students' diet, keeping in good health in summer, relaxing bowels, clearing away heat and toxic materials, and nourishing brain. They also won "99 Best Food Brand in Chongqing", "98 Recommended Brand by China Food Industry Association", 1996 China International Food Expo "International Brand Boutique" and 1995 China Chengdu International Food Boutique.
The production process of strange flavor beans is very elaborate-fresh broad beans are peeled, sprouted, washed, cooked, fished out and dried, vegetable oil is added with salt and cooking wine for a few times, then sugar and pepper noodles are added for a few times, and finally monosodium glutamate, pepper powder and sesame oil are added. After stir-frying, a plate of Chongqing strange beans appeared.
