? The word "yak" literally means "shit" in Guiliu. ...... So cow yak hot pot is actually cow shit hot pot, but this cow shit is not the same as the other cow shit.
? Before taking the "cow yak", the first cattle and sheep hungry empty stomach, to feed the cattle Shouwu, Pueraria lobata, ginseng, angelica, buckwheat, fresh grass, mung beans and other herbs, and then let the cattle digest half an hour after the slaughter. As we all know, the cow's digestive mode is ruminant, half an hour time these herbs are only in half-digested state stored in the cow's stomach. The slaughtered cow is then taken out of the stomach and intestines, and the semi-digested mixture inside is removed and squeezed out of the liquid, which is known as bovine defecation.
The squeezed out liquid is filtered and added to the cow's bile, along with peppercorns, ginger, tangerine peel, herbs, and other spices, and put into a pot to simmer slowly, skimming off the surface froth during the process. Then back to the pot, add salt, onion, ginger, garlic, chili, add beef, and you have this beef yakiniku hot pot.

Dong doctor called yak-yak "Hundred Herbs Soup", because cows and goats will choose non-toxic, harmless and nutritious plants to eat, and the countryside of Qiandongnan is rich in medicinal herbs, and people believe that these "Hundred Herbs" will be stronger and more medicinal and nutritious after digested by cows and goats. It is believed that after digestion by the sheep and cows, the medicinal properties of these herbs will be stronger and have the effect of nourishing the stomach and protecting the intestines. Shen Min, a scholar at the Guizhou Provincial Museum, told me that the Dong people ate yak, the real need is actually mixed in the gastrointestinal remnants of the digestive juices, which has the effect of strengthening the stomach and eliminating food.
