Many people compare Xinjiang to a paradise for dry rice people. On the one hand, there are a lot of delicious food in Xinjiang, and on the other hand, there is enough food there, which can attract dry rice people to be fascinated.

Xinjiang cuisine can be divided into several categories, including fruits and vegetables, meat and snacks.

I. Fruits and vegetables

Because of the long sunshine time in Xinjiang, the taste of fruits and vegetables is also very surprising.

(1) Turpan grapes. This is also one of the first fruits in Xinjiang to open its popularity. Because of the high temperature in Turpan and the high temperature day and night, it is very suitable for planting grapes, especially seedless white grapes, which are soft, sweet and sour, and absolutely the best among grapes. Of course, there are other varieties of grapes, which benefit from abundant sunshine and taste good.

(2) Xinjiang cantaloupe. Xinjiang cantaloupe is a kind of fruit in supermarkets and fruit stores, which is affordable and delicious, and is deeply loved by consumers. In addition to high sweetness, it also has the characteristics of thin skin, firm pulp and high nutritional value.

(3) Aksu sugar apple. The fruit shape of the sugar-heart apple located at the southern foot of Tomur Peak in Tianshan Mountain is flat, with an average fruit weight of150g. The fruit surface is very smooth, with natural color, thin skin and thick flesh, dense texture, rich sweet juice and high sugar content.

Of course, there are many fruits in Xinjiang, so no matter what season you go to Xinjiang, you can have a delicious and fresh fruit feast.

Second, meat

The famous meats in Xinjiang are:

(1) Barbecue, which is called "Kawapu" in Uighur. There are many cattle and sheep in Xinjiang, so the meat is also delicious. As the originator of barbecue, Xinjiang barbecue has its own unique production method, whether it is cured or baked. Then, although barbecue can be eaten all over the country, the barbecue in Xinjiang is really unique in flavor. Moreover, the barbecue in Xinjiang is not as delicate as mutton kebabs, and the second is the kind of large barbecue that can make people eat.

(2) saute spicy chicken, also called Shawan saute spicy chicken. The combination of chicken and potatoes, plus unique spices, saute spicy chicken is delicious whether it is served with rice or noodles. Although the saute spicy chicken in Xinjiang now has stores all over the country, the local saute spicy chicken in Xinjiang is definitely more authentic and solid. Delicious and weighty food is naturally popular.

(3) Naokeng meat, also known as spitting Nurkka Wapu. It is a delicious food baked with fresh fat and tender mutton. It belongs to the "family" with the baked buns, and both come out of the pit. After the mutton is cured, it is roasted slowly with a small fire. The roasted meat is fragrant, fresh and delicious! This kind of food is rare in other places, so the most authentic Naokeng meat can be found in Xinjiang.

Third, snacks

I think there should be many people, like me, who like to eat local snacks everywhere and often have surprises. There are many snacks in Xinjiang, for example, the following are especially recommended:

(1) Sliced noodles, which are very similar to ordinary mixed noodles, but have the regional characteristics of Xinjiang. According to different tastes and ingredients, there are many combinations of mixed noodles, but each one is really delicious and tender.

(2) Baked steamed stuffed buns, which are baked in Naokeng. The skin color is Huang Liang, and the skin at the entrance is crisp and tender. You can bite the rich mutton flavor and wrap it in the skin. Don't have a flavor, it is one of the snacks that must be recommended when you go to Xinjiang.

(3) Dried fruits and nuts of various colors. Xinjiang is a place rich in natural products, and the sunshine is long and windy, so its dried fruits and nuts taste very good, such as raisins, which are well known to all. These are delicious and can be used as a gift, which is something that almost people who travel to Xinjiang will buy.

(4) pilaf. Different from foreign pilaf, Xinjiang pilaf mainly consists of mutton, radish and rice, which are fried and then stewed. The pilaf is delicious and nutritious, and it is also an important special food for Xinjiang people to entertain guests.

There are many delicious things in Xinjiang, so if you have the chance, you must try their special food.
