There are indeed many delicious foods in Nanchang. The following small series will recommend some gourmet shops in Nanchang. These foods will really make you want to stop. Now let's go and see what delicious places there are. You are blessed with friends who are still in Nanchang. Nanchang's standard is mixed-powder crock soup
nameless mixed-powder shop
If you ask a Nanchang person which mixed-powder shop is more authentic, then the other person will probably answer: all of them are authentic, and the one downstairs is quite good.
Mixing powdered crock soup is a standard in Nanchang, and it is also a belief of Nanchang people. On the morning after going home, who doesn't say a bowl of powder first? Boiled rice noodles are blanched in boiling water, the colander shakes the water to dry, and then the powder is accurately buckled into the bowl; Scoop, bring pepper, soy sauce, chopped green onion, dried radish, fried peanuts, seasoning gathered on the powder, white rice flour dyed light brown, but also glowing with cooking oil.
From scalding the powder to mixing the sauce, it takes a few minutes for Mali's store to make a quick move. Streets and lanes can be seen everywhere, and the powder after water is warm and fragrant. Each family has its own formula, but it is always the same, and it tastes like Nanchang.
However, senior foodies must not be satisfied with perfunctory answers such as Everything is OK. The more common you eat, the more you need to find it in old residential areas. The inconspicuous frontispiece represents a calm attitude towards life, and it is normal to practice. One day, my best friend, Comrade Ye An 'an, celebrated his birthday. He was so hungry after a night's sleep that he was looking forward to mixing powder. Ann's boyfriend is a more authentic Nanchang native than me, born and raised in dashiyuan. This family doesn't even have a store name or signboard, which is from snacks to big ones.
The powder mixing shop opens after five o'clock every day. At seven or eight o'clock, it is a sea of people, and the powder will be sold out before ten o'clock. Fine powder, sufficient ingredients, and moist taste; The meat pie soup is also good, and the meat pie is particularly large, which can be called a meat lump, and it is bursting with satisfaction.
Yongsheng Breakfast Shop
The Yongsheng Breakfast Shop on the left of the noodle shop is also an old shop. I can't tell you how many years it has been. The opening time should be similar to that of the noodle shop. Fried dough sticks, candy, hemp balls and the like are not fresh, and the white sugar cake is really unique. Originally, this is the characteristic of Jiangxi. The flour is kneaded into a ball and then pulled into a strip and folded three times. The oil pan is fried thoroughly and then wrapped with white sugar. The outside is sweet and crisp, and the inside is soft and glutinous. The immortal white sugar cake is big and full, and it's very enjoyable to just look at it when it's fished out of the oil pan.
Dwarf Soup Shop
It's behind the Blue Ocean Shopping Plaza, with a side road called Wangjiazhuang Road, and opposite the head is Dwarf Soup Shop. The dwarf soup shop is old, which is new to me. It's called breakfast. It seems to be open 24 hours a day. On several occasions, when I passed by at ten o'clock in the evening, I could still see the warm lights. It's an old-fashioned sense of security. No matter how late or hungry you are, there is this delicious food waiting for you, and you will have confidence in your heart.
since it's called a soup shop, the first signature food is soup. The rest is mixed with flour and miscellaneous sauce noodles. Needless to say, mixing powder, another interesting miscellaneous sauce noodles. The noodles with Nanchang flavor are miscellaneous sauce, not fried sauce, which is quite different from the sauce in the north. Our sauce is similar to thicken. There are some bean paste, sweet noodle sauce and the like, which are not as greasy and thick as those in old Beijing and Zhajiang Noodles, and we don't talk about the food code. We just dice the side dishes such as dried bean curd and cucumber, and even the noodles are painted dark with the sauce.
Old Zuo Zhajiang Noodles
Some old shops are hidden but not obvious, and others are heard from the street. Old Zuo Zhajiang Noodles is obviously the latter. A few years ago, when I was taking a taxi in Nanchang, I happened to hear the old Zuo Zhajiang Noodles on the radio. I asked the driver where he was. The driver looked at me with a surprised look and said seriously, You don't even know Lao Zuo. Are you from Nanchang?
I heard that when business is at its best, the old left-hand shop is crowded with people, squatting and standing at the door, just to eat. The storefront is in Jewelry Street, which is also the place where rabbits visited since childhood. The rabbit said that the noodles in this house are very distinctive and are real handmade noodles, but I think the alkaline taste seems too strong. I prefer miscellaneous sauce noodles in the dwarf soup shop. Oil cake and sesame seed cake
Zhangji pancake
There are many approachable street foods hidden in Jewelry Street. Besides Lao Zuo, there is an oil cake stall that lasts for years, at the intersection of Jewelry Street and Zhangjiaci Lane. There is no storefront, just a fixed-point stall, but the business is very good and there is often a queue. I don't know the exact time of the stall, but they are always there every time I pass by during the day.
The technology of oil cake is not complicated. Add meat to the dough and fry it in the pan. But how thick the noodles should be, how to match the meat, and what kind of frying is good, there are doorways. Some oil cakes are fried too dry and oily, and they will break when touched; Some fillings are too little, and they only taste like noodles, which is thin and crisp; Some are too soft, just like the spread cakes, losing the crispness of the oil cakes.
Zhangji's oil cake is stuffed with meat or leek, and there must be Chili in it, which is delicious and spicy, but not greasy. Small dough is pressed into a big cake, washed and floated in rapeseed oil, fluffy, crisp and delicious. Just put it out of the pan and let it cool a little, and you can eat it now. At that time, the taste is the best, and a bite is enough to make people stop. If you put it away, the stuffing will still be delicious, and the overall crispness will be gone, and the flavor will be greatly reduced.
Tian Tian Cake
In order to demonstrate which one tastes better, the oil cake in Zhangji or Tian Tian Cake, we specially went to Tiantian after buying Zhangji, and lined up to taste the two flavors to make a comparison. Tiantian pie is also an old shop for more than 2 years. Its status in the Jianghu is similar to that of Lao Zuo, and its business is also quite hot. Originally in Wangjiaxiang, I moved to the junction of Xiangshan South Road and Ruzi Road, just beside COCO milk tea. Oil cakes are all made on the spot, and queuing is inevitable.
the two companies have their own advantages: the stuffing in Zhangji tastes heavy, spicy and leek-flavored, and it is enjoyable to eat; Every day, the inside of the pie is pure meat, and the minced meat is large and many, and it is very fresh. Every day, the taste is softer and lighter, not rushing; Zhang Ji has a strong impact and is suitable for people who like heavy tastes. Besides, the temperature is crisp, and it is soft every day, which is like Cantonese taste.
Xiaocheng sesame seed cake
Oil cake is simple, because the oil is called cake, in contrast, the concept of sesame seed cake is much more complicated. Different sayings in different regions seem to have completely different connotations: or it refers to the mahjong biscuits in the north, which are thick and solid, and the layers of sesame sauce are fragrant; Or Huangqiao sesame seed cake, crispy and yellow on both sides; Or Huangshan sesame seed cake, small in size, with a yellow hard shell outside, full of dried prunes and pork, fat and thin.
In Nanchang people, sesame seed cake is quite thin, round or oval, with crispy skin and a layer of meat or sugar inside. Pushing a car on the street with a large gasoline can-like oven, even selling sweet potatoes and biscuits. I remember that when I was a child, the biscuits were very cheap. I could buy one for 5 cents, but now it's about fourfold, and it's two dollars each.
Xiaocheng sesame seed cake is another style. I don't know when it became a online celebrity store. It is said that Rene Liu has visited it. The place is not hard to find. It is in Xiaogongmiao Lane on Xiangshan North Road, which is the alley opposite the First Hospital. Every afternoon when I ride my bike from Xiangshan North Road, I can see the long queue at the door of Xiaocheng Sesame Seed Cake. Originally, there were only about two flavors, sweet and salty. The sweet one was sugar and the salty one was meat. Later, all kinds of dried plum vegetables and beef were developed, and they were all delicious. There are many fillings, and the taste is biased, which makes the thin crust full. One bite, very satisfied, two people are full of rice.
Dihuang roasted brine
Marinated vegetables are the highlight of Nanchang people's life. Whether it's an addiction or drinking under the table, marinated sauce products are definitely essential. Even the neighboring provinces are similar: Hunan is delicious, Hubei is Zhou Heiya, and Jiangxi is splendid. However, in view of the fact that the streets are already full of Huang Shanghuang's branches, I even found that there are chain stores in Beijing a while ago, so there is no need to recommend Huang Shanghuang in particular.
Most of my own snacks are bright sauced ducks, beef skewers, moss and the like. It's in the shop at the intersection of Xiangshan North Road and Dieshan Road, and it's still there. However, it is worth mentioning that Dihuang, an old shop that has no branch stores and is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, has not reduced the popularity of the pepper essence incident.
Dihuang's characteristic is fresh and spicy. The taste of sauce and marinade is lighter than that of Huangshanghuang, and it has only outstanding umami and spicy taste. The non-spicy style can make foreigners suspicious of life, while the spicy style can make locals suspicious of life.
Aunt An
Aunt An's meatballs are also childhood memories. All kinds of meatballs look similar in size and appearance, but slightly different in color. After being fried thoroughly, they are dry and vigorous. There are many flavors of meatballs, such as corn, ribs and beef, but they are all covered with Chili powder, and it is not easy to eat their own fragrance. It's like a dusty woman with heavy makeup, and it takes a lot of whitewashing to find the truth. Prosperous and heavy taste
Nanchang once had a popular local dialect drama called "Ten Thousand Families in Songbai Lane". Nanchang dialect is not easy to understand, but it sounds very tasty to locals. There is a lyric in the theme song "Fried Bacon with Artemisia selengensis" of this drama that says well: "The days when you are fragrant are flourishing. Compared with life, Gancai tastes like this, and it pays attention to prosperity. In the humid weather in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, non-peppers can't dehumidify, which sprinkles a heavy seasoning on the life like water.
Nanchang people are spicy, and they also like to put soy sauce in their dishes. Just looking at it, you can see how heavy the taste is. When I was a child, there was a popular snack on the street called Chili cake, which was actually Chili powder seasoned with salt and pressed into a cake, which was spicy and salty. There are also peppers when boiled, and hot sauce when fried. All kinds of strings in the pots on the stalls are also hot. I feel that I can shake three pounds of Chili powder casually-Nanchang dialect is called Chili powder.
Neighbours
The new school of Jiangxi cuisine has the same old flavor, such as neighbors. Neighbor means neighbor in Nanchang dialect. Nanchang people often say that neighbors next door are very friendly when used as store names. Neighbors' specialty dishes include flower nails, crab feet, chicken feet and so on, and most of them are bright red. Cold lotus root slices are what we used to eat when we were young. The whole lotus root must be put into the water and cooked until the chopsticks can pierce it. After it is cooked, add cold water and cut the cold salad. Originally, you could buy one serving at 5 cents on the street, with a dozen tablets in a small bag. It was so spicy that people kept nagging and wanted to continue eating. The neighbor's lotus root and mung bean soup are all the same as those in memory.
Killing chicken feet is also one of my favorite things. The braised method is used, and the meat is soft and tasty, which can almost be described as instant in the mouth. Pepper is naturally essential, fresh and spicy are 1%. In Nanchang dialect, it means super good, and it is not too much to describe this chicken foot. I once led a friend from Sichuan to eat her neighbor's chicken feet, and the girl praised them, calling them the best chicken feet she had ever eaten. The taste can be seen from the recommendation of a person from a big food-eating province.
Wang, try
The new store next door is still old-fashioned, and more authentic flavor is still in the hidden fly restaurant. Jiande view is one of the food gathering places in Nanchang. Wang tried to find it after moving to Jiande view. If you try searching Wang on the Internet, the address is written in the alley opposite Jiande Guanyifeng Pharmacy. Such an extensive and accurate description is an old shop that does not worry about customers. In fact, the alley is called Frozen Rice Lane, but it will not be marked on the general map. The signboard that Wang tried is very big, and you can see it when you walk to the corner.
Wang, try it. There isn't even a menu. As soon as the guests sit down, the waiter will give them the names of the dishes. In other words, what dishes are available depends on what dishes the boss bought today. The characteristics of the food are also heavy taste, especially the soy sauce is extremely heavy. Even chili scrambled eggs is dark, but it is not too salty and delicious. Fresh and spicy meals are the characteristics of the old food stalls, and the meat dishes with strong sauce flavor are enough to make people swallow three bowls of rice.
Small Oriental Restaurant
Some stores were discovered at a party with friends, and some were recommended by local friends. Speaking of myself, the small Oriental Restaurant has really grown from a snack to a big one, and it is almost a household name in Nanchang. Before the demolition of the old store in Little East, I lived in a small building on the fourth floor next to it. Standing on your balcony, you can see grapefruit skin, dried salted duck and sausage drying on the roof of Little Oriental.
My childhood memory is that there are not enough dishes at home, so I went downstairs to the small east to serve two dishes, and then returned the dishes after eating. When I take a taxi home, the driver's master asks where the Bayi Bridge is, and just answer Xiao Dongfang directly. I don't know how many years the store has been open. Anyway, grapefruit peel, steamed pork and beer duck are well known. It is no exaggeration to say that the grapefruit skin in Little Oriental is definitely the peak representative of the grapefruit skin industry. I have never eaten a grapefruit skin better than that so far. The peel with uniform thickness was braised with diced mushrooms and minced meat, which turned into a brown yellow with a sauce flavor. It was fresh, soft and tasty, and it also had the fragrance of grapefruit. With the unique taste of grapefruit peel, it stung the taste properly and evoked all the memories.
Eating all kinds of peels is a unique aspect of Nanchang's diet. Besides grapefruit peels, watermelon peels and winter melon peels can also be used for cooking, frying or cold salad.
After the demolition, Little Oriental moved to Wangjiazhuang Road behind Blue Ocean Square, not far from the dwarf soup shop. The taste hasn't changed much, but the feeling of the store is gone. However, it's not hard to find the doors and faces of Little Oriental, which are all facing the road.
A taste of fresh
A taste of fresh in the temple of fire is really kept in a boudoir, and all the people who can follow the taste are gourmets. Originally, Yipin Xian didn't even have a store name, just because the signature dish was called Yipin Xian, and over time everyone called it that. Since there is no store name, natural signs do not exist.
The alleys behind Parkson Shopping Mall are criss-crossed, and the map can't determine the exact location. Yipin Xian's store is also very small, which generally needs to be booked in advance, and it is not open at noon on Monday and Thursday. It's not easy to catch a proper time, so you can sit down and eat when you go. The so-called first-class delicacy is fish and mutton. Break the word "fresh". Vegetables and vermicelli are covered below, and onion, ginger, garlic and pepper are covered with hills, and red oil is poured, which is similar to the practice of boiling pork slices in Sichuan cuisine.
I prefer a fresh flower nail and crab feet. They are spicy and sweet, and they are very spicy. As a powder-loving Nanchang person, it is inevitable to have a bowl of polished powder soaked in the soup after eating the flower nail meat. The menu of the old shop seems to have never been changed, but you can never get tired of eating it. For example, fried chicken feet and wrists, not much meat but very delicious, I have never seen it in another house. The signature rose chicken wings are not the traditional Nanchang flavor, but a little too sweet.
Yunjing Ecological Park
Gancai is not a cuisine, but a convention, so it doesn't seem to be so popular. Most dishes with good taste are always found in small restaurants. Yunjing Ecological Park can be regarded as the only hotel that is tall and full of flavor, and it can be selected for two reasons: the environment is excellent, and the whole hotel is a large indoor garden, with small bridges and flowing water and green bamboo pavilions, which is somewhat artistic conception of the ancients; The dishes are good, and the improved Gancai has a countertop, which is full of color, flavor and taste, and will not only be ugly.
winter bamboo shoots and bacon is one of the traditional Jiangxi dishes. The winter bamboo shoots are crispy and the bacon is full of flavor. When fried together, the flavors blend with each other and the pearls are just right. The noodles with ribs are fine noodles, soft and tasty, and the sauce flavor of ribs is not in the noodles, and the roots are full of flavor. Snack
There are only two famous places to eat snails in Nanchang: Xiongshi Snail King and Laomin Snail Restaurant. Now there are branches in these two streets and alleys, and I haven't eaten every branch, but I vaguely think the best is the old shop.
Xiong's snail king
frontispiece, the old shop of Xiong's snail king, is very shabby and the place is small. Now, not far from the old shop, a new frontispiece has been opened for everyone to eat. In addition to snails, the most famous snail king Xiong is actually paper-wrapped quail and pork liver powder. Quails wrapped in paper are small and crisp, fragrant and crisp, and the outside
