I am very happy to answer this question. I am a Chaoshan foodie. As an authentic Chaoshan person, there are many kinds of Chaoshan food. Let me show you some of my favorites. Do you all like to eat it?
Let me go first and show off Chaoshan Huilai’s special delicacies, which are shrimp dates and cuttlefish balls. Hello Chaoshan people, come and show off.
There are really so many Chaoshan delicacies on the tip of your tongue that you can eat and browse all the way. You can't finish them all in one day and you won't be able to eat enough.
There are some things that I forget to name after eating them, but the taste is always unforgettable. It is so delicious. Everything looks inconspicuous, but when you eat it, it tastes so delicious that you can't help but scream. Now that I talk about it, I can't help but drool.
During the summer vacation, a large family went on a self-driving trip to Chaoshan, just for the delicious food in Chaoshan.
The delicacies in the pictures were all taken when I went to Chaoshan Food Street and ate there. Some of them I don’t remember what they were called. Friends from Chaoshan, please help me take a look. Can you tell me the name of the food in the picture?
There is a saying in Guangdong that "Eat in Guangzhou and taste in Chaozhou." Chaozhou cuisine is an integral part of Cantonese cuisine and is one of the most popular cuisines in Guangdong. Chaozhou cuisine can be called a classic. Shenzhen has the most Chaozhou cuisine and specialty snacks. Shenzhen also has many Chaoshan people who know how to eat. In order to create the Chaoshan taste, many businesses use only Chaoshan cuisine, both as chefs and as ingredients. The dishes that come out are very characteristic of Chaoshan.
Beef
The most famous thing in Chaoshan is definitely beef. Beef is famous in Chaozhou cuisine. There are many kinds of beef in terms of different parts and names. , such as hanging dragon, key handle, key kernel, three-flowered toe, etc. If you are not a knowledgeable foodie, you really don’t know what they are and what the difference is. The most common way to eat beef is to use it in hot pot. Fresh beef and beef bone soup base. The beef is slightly blanched until it is 90% cooked. It looks a little bloody. It has the best texture and taste, and is paired with a little Chaoshan unique food. The sand tea sauce has a really rich flavor. Seafood
It is no exaggeration to say that Chaoshan people are best at cooking seafood. There are so many ways to cook seafood. In my opinion, the most distinctive flavor is the "pickled seafood" method, which is known as "poison". The taste of pickled seafood is very "fresh". Add a variety of ingredients to marinate the seafood raw, and you will eat the original taste of the seafood. Many people who have never eaten it will become addicted after eating it, so it is also called "poison". This dish is special It’s unique, so don’t miss it when you go to Chaoshan.
Kueh Teow
Kueh Teow is a very popular snack in Chaoshan. Kuey Teow is similar to ordinary river noodles, but the taste and texture are different. Kuey Teow Rice The aroma is stronger. The most common way to make kuey teow is to make beef kuey teow soup, or fried kuey teow, as well as bowl kueh, red peach kueh, etc. "Kuih" can be said to be the only one in Chaoshan people's diet. After rice, it is one of the most commonly eaten ingredients.
Braised Goose
Chaoshan’s braised goose is the most famous among Cantonese cuisine, especially the braised lion-head goose. A lion-head goose can weigh up to 30 kilograms, making it the largest among the lion-head geese. The most valuable part is the goose head. A braised goose head can be sold for about 1,500 yuan. The taste of lion head goose is more delicious than ordinary goose. The goose meat is marinated to absorb the flavor of the spices in the brine, making the braised goose taste better. The most delicious and fragrant, it really leaves a lingering fragrance on your lips and teeth after eating it.
There are many delicacies in Chaoshan, what better local delicacies are there? You are welcome to communicate.
As a food lover who just returned from a trip to Shantou during the National Day, Qianqian I feel that there are really too many delicious foods in Shantou. What I ate may only be a small part, and it is worthy of being the Chaoshan on the tip of my tongue. Now I will share with you the delicious food I ate as a tourist in Shantou during the National Day! Fuhecheng Beef Balls: A hot pot restaurant with beef balls that are more delicious than beef
I ordered tender meat + key nuts + hanging dragon companion + beef balls + beef tendon balls + raw beef balls + tofu skin + dolls The food is enough for two people.
Of course, beef hotpot requires fresh beef. The different parts of beef are freshly cut. Although the names are weird and you can’t tell who is who, they are all delicious.
Blanch it slightly in the beef soup base, and then dip it in the store’s special sand tea sauce. It’s really amazing. The thinly sliced ??beef is tender and smooth, and full of aroma. It’s really good news for carnivores!
The beef balls are super chewy and chewy. They are completely different from ordinary beef balls. The more they chew, the more fragrant they become. They are so delicious that I packed a portion of the beef balls before I left. The baby cabbage and tofu skin are also excellent as side dishes. The baby cabbage is sweet and sweet, and the bean skin is tender and chewy. Gongxin Awu Casserole Porridge: Chaoshan Casserole Porridge with plenty of fresh ingredients
Two people ordered meat crab and shrimp porridge and frog and scallop porridge. Two bowls of porridge, one stir-fried sweet potato leaves and one preserved vegetable egg.
The meat, crab and shrimp porridge is full of ingredients. Although the crab is not big, there is a whole crab. The crab meat is fresh and sweet, and the shrimp meat is chewy. The porridge is well seasoned, with seasonings such as shiitake mushrooms, dry-fried minced garlic and black pepper further enhancing the umami flavor of the seafood.
The crab meat and shrimp meat are paired with the satay sauce on the side, which enhances the freshness and flavor, and brings with it the aroma of peanut butter. It is impossible to stop eating.
Frog and scallop porridge, large chunks of frog are made with enough ingredients, the meat is elastic and chewy, the scallop particles are fresh and fragrant, the overall taste is light and sweet, and the aftertaste is delicious.
The accompanying stir-fried sweet potato leaves are simply stir-fried but have a unique flavor, which stimulates the aroma of the sweet potato leaves themselves. The preserved eggs are also good, with the egg aroma and burnt aroma blending, and the preserved vegetables are crispy. There are licorice fruit shops in the streets of Shantou. Although they are expensive, you can give them a try.
There are many kinds of freshly cut fruits, which look bright and rich in color, which is very beautiful.
But the price is not cheap. A box of it costs about 4,50. I really can’t afford to eat fruit.
The biggest feature of licorice fruit is that it is paired with licorice juice and ganmei powder. The combination of sweet fruit and slightly sour licorice has a unique taste. You may not be used to it when you first eat it, so the boss thoughtfully said that it is okay. Taste a small amount first and stir together if you like.
(Um. I still think it’s delicious when eaten alone, peaches, crispy persimmons, and blood oranges are all sweet and juicy) Longan Tofu: A dessert shop that didn’t try the signature tofu pudding
Because I went late, it was a pity that I didn't get to try the signature bean curd. Moreover, most of the desserts are warm, and only a few are iced, which may be more suitable for eating in the morning and evening.
The ginger and potato are special but tasteless. The taro balls are springy and chewy. The duck mother twist is actually a long glutinous rice ball with crushed peanut filling, but the texture is also good.
The grass cake is cool and slightly bitter, and the powdered sugar alleviates the herbal taste, but the taste will be better if it is iced.
There are two types of sweet eggs: eggs and quail eggs. They look almost black like pickled eggs, but have a very sweet aftertaste. The egg whites are a bit hard after being stewed for a long time. The overall dessert is relatively sweet, and it may taste better with ice in hot weather. Customs Old Monster BBQ: Signature Tofu Fish on Life 2
Ordered the signature Tofu Fish and a series of other beef balls + chicken feet + chicken legs + sausages + oysters + vegetables, etc.
Because I have been eating relatively light food for several days, I started to miss barbecue. I found that the only barbecue restaurant in Guangdong that served Life 2 is in Shantou, so I temporarily decided to give up roast goose and other Cantonese dishes and just have a barbecue. The signature tofu fish is really good, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The tofu fish on the inside is still soft and jelly-like, so you can take a sip. Finished just one. The roast beef balls are also good. The roasted beef balls are more elastic and a little juicy.
Although the oysters are small, they are well seasoned, and the recipe is included, but the garlic sauce is not thin and fragrant enough. The overall feeling is that the seasoning is too light, and there is no chili pepper at all. We also forgot to note that it should be spicy, so after eating it, we still felt that it was not strong enough. In addition, there may be takeout or there is a large flow of people during the National Day. Many of them are pre-baked and then baked after ordering. In terms of texture, they have lost the best taste and are relatively average.
Chaoshan is definitely worth visiting again! I can’t eat it at all. During this two-day trip to Shantou, I haven’t tasted the delicious roast goose, fresh fish rice, the raw pickled series that I want to try, and there are so many time-honored restaurants in Shantou that are worth eating!
Old Chaoshan people are welcome to recommend more local delicacies, add them to the list first, and then go pick them up next time!
