1. Xinjiang Noodles (Noodles) Xinjiang is in the northwest of China and belongs to the north. On the other hand, northerners are always unhappy, and eating noodles for three meals a day will not be too boring. On the other hand, Xinjiang mixed noodles are a unique food for Xinjiang people, and people in other places really can't get used to it. Noodles in the south are famous for their delicacy. Noodles are thin and long. Besides dry mixed noodles, noodles always bring their own soup. In Xinjiang, except soup, rice, noodles and soup, the rest of the pasta is dry, so it is called mixed noodles. Noodles, as the name implies, are a mixture of vegetables and noodles. But the most special thing about Xinjiang mixed noodles is the thickness of noodles. The noodles in the noodles are as thick as chopsticks, and some are even thicker than chopsticks! Some people may say that you can't chew, but you can't. The most prominent feature of Xinjiang mixed noodles is that the noodles are chewy and chewy, and people who have eaten them are full of praise. Xinjiang mixed noodles also has a special name: latiao! As long as you go to Xinjiang to eat noodles, when it comes to eating noodles, shopkeepers all know what you want to eat!

Second, saute spicy chicken The saute spicy chicken in Xinjiang is also a special food in Xinjiang. When you come to Xinjiang to taste delicious food, you must not forget it. Isn't it just a plate of fried chicken with potatoes? My southern classmates in DOG once asked me this question. Yes, that's it, but it's completely different. Large-scale chicken raising can choose native chicken, broiler chicken, Sanhuang chicken, snow chicken, laying hens and so on. Different kinds of chickens have different tastes of finished products. Even for the same kind of chicken, its meat quality and price vary greatly from place to place. Stir-fried chicken is simple, but the steps are complicated. After the initial processing, the saute spicy chicken should be pickled, mixed with auxiliary materials, mixed with sugar and chicken soup. After all these are solved, you can stir fry in the pot, otherwise you really can't make its unique taste. Some people still have to ask, what is the difference between fried chicken with potatoes and fried chicken? So what's the difference between Lanzhou beef noodles and braised beef noodles? Every dish has its own reason.

Third, hand-grabbed rice If you can eat mixed noodles in the north, then hand-grabbed rice is the only one in Xinjiang. My southern classmates have never heard of this kind of rice. However, hand-grabbed rice is the most common food in Xinjiang. Every household in Xinjiang cooks it once a week. What is finger food? What's the name of mansaf in Uyghur? Poirot? . Its method is to fry onions, carrot sticks and mutton pieces in oil first, then add washed rice and water for stewing and steaming. Does this sound simple? It's not hard to do. Pilaf is rich in nutrition, has the effect of food supplement, and is also one of the necessary foods for Uighurs to entertain guests on holidays. Why finger food? Because at first, I grabbed food with my hands! But now everyone eats pilaf with chopsticks or spoons, not directly. But this name has been passed down to this day.
