What’s delicious in Beijing? Maybe as a Beijinger, I don’t know much about Beijing’s food. But as an editor who is not from Beijing, I have prepared a Beijing food guide for you. Have you figured out how to go to Beijing for a big meal? Braised pork belly
The protagonists of Braised pork belly and roasted pork are the fat intestines and the fire roast! The fat intestines need to be washed very clean so that there is no "smell". The fire-roasted food is very different from the ones at the supermarket staple food window. There is no layer of burnt skin on the outside, and the mouth is full of meat. The most important thing is the soup - old soup! The so-called old soup means that this pot of soup has not been changed for decades. We just keep adding ingredients to it, so that the old taste can always be maintained. In addition to fatty intestines and roasted pork, a bowl of stewed pork also contains lungs (called lungs in Beijing) and fried tofu slices. It must be paired with garlic sauce, soybean curd sauce, and vinegar.
There is also a dish that tastes similar to stewed stew, called "Stewed Diaozi". There is no fire inside, it is simmered over low heat, and it is just as delicious.
2. Fried liver
The starch in the fried liver is mixed into a paste, cooked with liver and fatty intestines, and served with steamed buns. Now it is a quite luxurious breakfast. Moreover, eating fried liver is very particular. You cannot use a spoon. You have to pick up the bowl, turn it around, and drink it by sliding it around the bowl. This is called authentic.
3. Fried red fruits
Red fruits are actually hawthorns. Add sugar and water to the red fruits and cook until the red fruits are rotten. Let them cool before eating. The amount of sugar is very important. It should be the right balance between sweet and sour to taste the best. Best eaten chilled. Nowadays, some private restaurants have improved the fried red fruits and made them taste like jelly, which feels quite good.
4. Old Beijing Zhajiang Noodles
If the noodles are hand-rolled, they will be thicker and chewier than those made by machines. The fried sauce is fried with yellow sauce and minced meat. When eating noodles with soybean paste, you need to add extra vegetables, mainly shredded cabbage, cucumber, bean sprouts, soybeans, and chopped green onion. You must have these for authentic noodles with soybean paste. In addition, you can also add many vegetables to mix with the noodles, such as shredded radish, celery, etc. So do you really think that Jajangmyeon is eating noodles? In fact, the nutrition is very balanced.
5. Bean juice + rubber ring
Many people should know this snack. I know you can’t accept it or drink it, so I won’t force it, but really You can try it, it is also an experience in life, hahaha.
6. Jiaoliu meatballs
The meatballs are made of pork filling, but in order to taste, there will be some minced water chestnuts and minced ginger inside, so they need to be fried to make them crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. Realm, the so-called "focus". And "Liu" refers to the juice, which is sour and sweet, and paired with the meatballs, which are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, it's really amazing. Nowadays, many restaurants will serve it with fungus and colored pepper, but as long as the meatballs are fried well and the sauce is right, it can be the icing on the cake.
7. Ma Tofu (the appearance is really hard to come by, hahaha)
The raw material of Ma Tofu is the residue after grinding beans, plus snow red, and mutton Fried. I don’t know how to make it specifically. If it’s not done well, it won’t be authentic. The authentic Ma Tofu tastes very fragrant.
Besides these, there are actually many other Beijing dishes and snacks, including Beijing roast duck, shredded pork with Beijing sauce, roasted pork belly, fried tripe, shabu-shabu, pea yellow, mustard pile, milk The fried cakes will make me salivate again.
