People who often eat red ribs must be very surprised to hear the words black ribs. In fact, black ribs are a famous home-cooked dish in many places in Yunnan. The raw materials of this dish are kohlrabi, auricularia auricula, minced meat, mushrooms and black lobster sauce. When frying black ribs, there is no need to add more salt because kohlrabi and black lobster sauce have their own salty tastes. Home-cooked black ribs have a strong local flavor in Yunnan, salty and slightly spicy, which is very suitable for next meal.

Fried bait block

There are many ways to eat bait blocks in Yunnan, such as burning bait blocks, boiling bait blocks and oil cake bait blocks. In Tengchong, fried bait blocks are also called "rescue", and the raw materials are bait blocks, leeks and pickles. This dish is not only delicious, but also can be eaten as a staple food.

This dish is also familiar to Yunnan people. After the potatoes are cooked, they are crushed and fried with dried Chili powder, pepper and chopped green onion. Because of its strong flavor, it is loved by many people.

Sauerkraut and lotus root slices

Pickled pickles, as a favorite thing of everyone in Yunnan, are not uncommon in all kinds of home-cooked dishes. But no one expected pickles and ordinary lotus root slices to make such delicious food. Hot and sour taste with crispy lotus root slices is indeed an indispensable part of home cooking.

Sauerkraut and Red Bean Soup

There are two ways to eat sauerkraut and red bean soup: vegetarian soup and oil soup. It can be used not only as a next meal, but also as soup rice with sauerkraut and red beans, which is suitable for all ages.

Fried ham with green pepper

Ham, as a feature of Yunnan, naturally occupies a place in home cooking. Although it looks simple, fried ham with green pepper is really a very delicious dish and unforgettable.

Speaking of Yunnan in China, there are quite a few delicious local foods, such as Xiangxuanwei ham, Yunnan steamed chicken, wild mushroom feast, Dali casserole fish, Chinese fir in braised chicken, one or two roast ducks, Tengchong bait, crossing the bridge rice noodles, Kunming kimchi and so on. These are delicious local dishes, so besides some local specialties, what other home-cooked dishes are there in Yunnan?

Pickled vegetables in Yunnan are roughly equivalent to pickled vegetables in Northeast China and pickled vegetables in Sichuan. In fact, sauerkraut has its own characteristics all over the country. After fermentation, vegetables can be preserved for a long time, and at the same time, their flavor is increased, which brings fresh and sour taste to monotonous life and reflects the wisdom of people everywhere about eating.

The raw material of pickled vegetables in Yunnan is bitter vegetables. At first, this dish was a little bitter, but after pickling, the bitterness disappeared, and after fermentation, it became pickles seen in the market, including pickles and pickles, depending on the dehydration during cooking. Sauteed meat with sauerkraut is dark in color and heavy in taste. When you look at it, you will have an appetite. When you smell hot and sour, your index finger will move!

Among them, fried meat with sauerkraut is refreshing. There is more water in pickles, which will neutralize the fat of meat, provide a crisp and refreshing feeling, and make the whole dish complement each other. Whether you are in a high-end restaurant or a small restaurant, you may see these home-cooked dishes of Xian Yi, old and young Xian Yi.

In fact, the more homely the dishes, the more stories there are. When I was in college in Yunnan, fried minced meat with sauerkraut in the canteen was my dish to improve my food. I often eat a bunch of meat, a vegetarian dish, three liang of rice and three yuan to solve it. Now in Kunming, whenever you don't know what to eat, fried meat with sauerkraut is always uncomfortable, appetizing and fragrant. This dish runs through my process from hardship to society.

A fried pork with sauerkraut and a bitter vegetable soup are enough! In fact, Yunnan home cooking is very easy to eat. Potato shreds, stinky tofu and stir-fried series all have their own characteristics, but I still like pickles and fried meat. So which home-cooked dish in Yunnan do you like best?

Xuanwei stir-fried meat, fried crispy red beans, cold-fried auricularia root, fried broad beans with green pepper and ham, potato chicken, fried konjac tofu with sauerkraut, fried stinky tofu, fried potatoes, fried leeks with Xuanwei yellow tofu, fried shrimps with leeks, bad pepper fried eel, fried taro with eggplant, cold-fried Panzhihua, fried beef jerky with oil, fried small melons with oil, red stack, fried melon tips with red dried peppers, and pickled cabbage.

After watching the movie Fanghua, I wanted to go to Bishe Village, where the film was filmed, but I was surprised to learn that Mengzi was the birthplace of crossing the bridge rice noodles. As a result, the small house did not leave any impression, but fell in love with the rice noodle crossing the bridge. I went to eat shredded chicken rice noodles and chrysanthemum rice noodles for a week, but I was still not full. Really delicious and affordable. For rice noodles, I must go to Mengzi again in the future.

Yunnan cuisine, Xuanwei first.
