When traveling to a place, you must experience the local food to make the trip worthwhile.

When you go to Tibet, you must try Tibetan food.

Although the stomachs of mainlanders may not be able to digest local delicacies.

The restaurant where we ate was called "Abu Gaga". The boss told us: "Abu" means big brother, and "Gaga" means happiness.

So "Abu Gaga" is the "happy big brother"?

What a fun name.

Tibetan cuisine is divided into two categories: "red food" and "white food".

"Red" refers to meat, and "white" refers to milk.

In summer, Tibetans mainly eat "white food"; in winter, they mainly eat "red food".

Tibetan cuisine is greatly influenced by India and Nepal, with strong Indian and Nepalese styles.

The taste should be light.

For many dishes, the seasonings are just salt, onions and garlic, without chili.

Tibetan cuisine is mainly boiled, fried, and steamed, with very few stir-fried dishes. This is mainly due to the high altitude in Tibet, which makes it difficult to stir-fry vegetables.

Tibetan cuisine is mainly based on highland barley, beef and mutton, offal, ghee, milk residue, etc. produced locally in Tibet.

Unlike in the mainland, there are all kinds of ingredients.

Common Tibetan dishes include: A low-alcohol wine brewed from highland barley, with a bright yellow color, sweet and sour taste, and a taste similar to beer.

At the banquet, there will be special toasting girls. They wear gorgeous costumes, sing beautiful toasting songs in the highest pitched voices, and take turns to encourage people to drink.

It's "blood sausage."

Add the blood of cows and sheep to tsampa, salt, wild onions and other condiments, stir evenly, then pour it into the washed intestines of cows and sheep, put it into a pot and cook it with water.

Boil the sheep head, remove the bones and remove the meat, and eat it with curry, fennel, MSG, salt and other seasonings.

The "learning fruit" is potatoes.

Boil and peel the potatoes, mix them with flour, wrap the minced meat that has been mixed with seasoning and stir-fried like "Yuanxiao" wrappers, roll them in bread crumbs, and then fry them in ghee.

Tender and refreshing, spicy and fragrant.

Wang Zengqi said: A person's taste can be mixed.

I think it should be so.

Read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles, and try thousands of delicacies, right?
