"Suzhou has many famous snacks, which taste sweet, soft and glutinous. Pan-fried steamed buns with crab shells, tiger claws with twisted sticks..." Suzhou people pay attention to finesse, and snacks and snacks are all delicate and delicious, leaving diners with a little aftertaste and longing forever.
.
Here are some food recommendations in Suzhou.
1. Su-style fresh meat mooncakes There are few southerners who don’t like Su-style mooncakes. They look golden and moist, taste crisp and fluffy, and taste sweet and salty.
Sweet fillings include pine nuts, walnuts, roses, adzuki beans, etc.; salty fillings include ham, shrimp, chives, etc.
Among them, the meat mooncake is probably the most memorable one.
In front of the stalls of time-honored brands, you can see queues waiting for mooncakes to be released all year round, and during the Mid-Autumn Festival, supply exceeds demand.
Second, Fengzhen Noodles rarely has a bowl of noodles that brings a tangy aroma of wine to diners like Fengzhen Noodles, because in addition to the common meat bones and eel bones, wine grains and screws are also added to the soup.
The topping is a piece of braised pork, but it is different from ordinary braised pork. It is white and the method is complicated. Soy sauce cannot be added when braised, and it is purely seasoned with salt.
As a result, the braised meat is plump and melts in your mouth; the noodle soup is fresh and smooth, and the wine is mellow.
Third, Aozao noodles in red and white soup, fried fish noodles in red oil, and braised duck noodles in white soup. Most people who have tasted Aozao noodles will never forget the unique flavor of the clear soup, refreshing noodles, and mellow toppings.
Pan Xiaomin, the national catering master of Xucheng Building, went to Kunshan Aozao Noodle House to learn the art more than ten years ago, and brought the authentic Aozao noodles to Suzhou. He has continuously improved the formula and taste, making the soup more refined and richer in taste, and the toppings include fried fish,
In addition to the braised duck, braised pork and wild shrimps are also added.
?Fourth, Chicken Head Rice Soup Suzhou people have a lot of particularities about eating "water ginseng" chicken head rice.
The first is to eat the chicken head rice from Nantang, which is of the best quality; the second is to buy a small amount and eat it all at once, so that what you eat is the fresh taste with the smell of water; the third is to eat it during the Mid-Autumn Festival, if you miss it,
We can only wait eagerly for the launch next year. 5. Crab shell yolk Crab shell yolk is shaped like a crab shell and color is like crab roe.
Suzhou people are fond of tea. In old teahouses, one of the two most ordered tea snacks was crab shell roe.
In the era of scarcity of materials, it was very rare to have crab shell yolk as a snack. The feeling of fragrant fragrance on the teeth and cheeks is destined to become a beautiful eternity.
Among the popular traditional tea dishes, the salt and pepper flavored sock sole cake is also a popular one.
The small shortbread is exquisitely made, and the layers are as thin as cicada wings, a real testament to the skill.
Sixth, the fish-flavored spring roll Suzhou spring roll wrapper is exquisitely made.
The chef holds the pot with one hand and shakes the dough with the other hand, and the dough is clean and crisp.
The spring roll skin is as thin as paper, round as a mirror, transparent and soft.
Fish-flavored spring rolls, as the name suggests, are filled with seabass meat and shrimps. They are rich in fish flavor and have distinctive local characteristics in the "Land of Fish and Rice".
7. Oil and tight fermentation "氽" (tǔn) is a cooking term popular in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, also known as deep-frying; tight fermentation means that a small amount of fermentation is used, and it is firm after steaming and crispy on the outside and loose on the inside.
Suzhou people prefer to call it "Xinglong Steamed Bun", which means prosperity.
It is precisely because of this beautiful meaning that it is put on the market in winter and used as a gift among relatives and friends during the Spring Festival. The supply is often in short supply.
8. Small wontons Small wontons are the most common snacks in Jiangnan people.
The almost transparent skin is as thin as crepe, with a little pink meat filling in the middle. It is served in the most common white porcelain soup bowl. The clear soup is sprinkled with some green onion and garlic leaves and bright yellow egg skin.
Or add a little seaweed and shrimp skin to make the soup delicious and full of flavor.
