I am used to eating big fish and meat in the city, and after seeing the lavish meals in the hotel, I understand those rural dishes such as vegetables and radish, winter bamboo shoots and bacon, firewood rice, etc. In fact, the taste is long-lasting and it is an authentic delicacy in my heart.

Ten miles have different styles, and hundreds of miles have different customs. In Huangcai Town, located in the west of Ningxiang, every household will kill the New Year pig during the Chinese New Year. The pork was smoked into bacon and hung neatly on the beams. How to finish a piece of pork in a year? The hard-working hostess has a plan. The front legs are waiting for the child to come back to eat, and the back legs are reserved for another daughter or son who has married or gone out to eat. That shoulder is eaten for some festival, and that pig's trotter is eaten for some reason. The hostess had a clear plan in mind.

They want to buy a few to go back to have a tooth ceremony, but they are not easily available. of. The hostess will point to each piece of bacon and tell you its uses. After hearing the long-term plan, you realized that it was really rash to suggest buying bacon.

However, the enthusiastic host will invite you to dine at her home and let you try her fried bamboo shoots and bacon, allowing you to eat authentic delicacies.

Hanging pot rice is the way poor people cooked rice a long time ago. A long wire with a hook hangs from the beam, and the hook is used to hang the pot. The hanging pot is a cylindrical iron pot with a funnel-shaped bottom. The washed rice is put into a hanging pot and hung on an iron hook. A pit was dug in the ground, and firewood from the country was placed on top of it. The flames burned brightly, and the smoke passed through the small tiled roof and rose into the air, announcing the news of cooking to others from a distance.

The rice is gradually cooked, and the aroma is wafting out, which means that there are crusts on the bottom of the pot. This is authentic firewood rice. It tastes much better than the rice cooked by current wood-fired rice cookers.

But now, every household is undergoing kitchen renovation. Biogas stoves and liquefied gas stoves have long been used in the kitchen, which is no longer as smoky as before. Occasionally, some nostalgic families will set up a special place for the hanging pot in the side room, and use the hanging pot on certain special days. If you happen to catch that day and eat hanging pot firewood rice, you will definitely find it extremely novel and delicious.

If you are a guest in Anhua County, the host will definitely treat you warmly with their famous Anhua Leicha. They carry a large bucket of hot Leicha and pour a full bowl for you. Leicha is made by beating peanuts, beans, sesame, tea leaves, ginger and salt into fine powder. It has a fragrant and pure taste. You take it and drink it in one gulp, and the master will fill it up for you again. When you finish your drink again, the master will still fill it up. You mutter to yourself, why are you always pouring tea? When will you eat?

It turns out that the custom of the Anhua people is that the guest must expressly indicate that he does not want to drink Leicha before the host can serve the meal. If you do not say so, they will keep adding Leicha to you. If you don't understand their customs, you will really make a joke.
