The Shui people who have lived in the mountains for generations are not good at growing vegetables and mainly rely on the natural resources provided by nature. It is precisely because of the resource-rich mountains that the Shui culture is more brilliant.
The food of the Shui people is regarded as a delicacy in Chinese cuisine. The simple meals on the tables of the Shui people are not only delicious, but also a kind of health-preserving dish.
Most of the Shui people are located in the upper reaches of Liujiang River and Longjiang River, where streams are intertwined and the climate is warm. It is known as the "Land of Fish, Rice, Flowers and Fruits".
The Shui people who have lived here for generations like to eat glutinous rice, sauerkraut, chili, pickled fish, pickled meat, soju, and sweet wine.
Among the many delicacies, the most distinctive dish is the fish sour dish. It can be regarded as the best sour dish. When you open the mouth of the altar, the aroma is fragrant and tempts your appetite.
Most Shui ethnic villages live in valley troughs with dense forests and bamboos. They have a hot climate and mainly cultivate rice.
Therefore, the food culture of the Shui people is all related to the rice farming culture.
The Fuyuan Shui people like to eat glutinous food, fish, duck, and goose as meat, and the seasonings are mainly sour and spicy. Therefore, the Shui people say that "if you don't eat sour food for three days, you will suffer from tuberculosis and asthma when walking."
Shuijia cuisine has the functions of appetizing, removing dampness and warming, and has no greasy feeling in the mouth.
The collection of Shuijia cuisine will make your mouth water, and even the Dragon King will praise you when he sees it!
The Shui people mainly eat rice as their staple food, as well as cereals, wheat, barley, corn, sorghum, millet, sweet potatoes, beans, etc.
Vegetables mainly include green vegetables, cabbage, radish, leeks, mushrooms, bracken, fungus, etc.
Shui people like to eat sour food and drink alcohol. Sour soup is a must-have food for Shui people at home in summer.
Women of the Shui tribe are also good at making various pickled foods, mainly pickled fish, pickled meat, and pickled vegetables.
The "fish-wrapped chives" prepared by women of the Shui tribe are a must-have delicacy at the Dragon Boat Festival banquet.
Shui farmers are not good at growing vegetables, so the vegetable varieties are relatively monotonous.
The aquarium attaches great importance to breeding and fisheries. Therefore, various livestock, poultry and aquatic products provide necessary meat food for the aquarium's life.
Shui people like to drink, and every family will bake rice wine.
During festivals, celebrations or when relatives and friends come to visit, it is indispensable to entertain guests with wine.
My favorite is the traditional wine "Jiuqian Wine".
