Pig blood cake, a specialty of my hometown.
Every time someone says it's a specialty of Shaoyang, I always have to correct it: I brought it to Shaoyang because of Wugang pig blood cake.
Needless to say, Wugang people in Shaoyang pay attention to food and clothing. It is said that it is the second, and it is estimated that no one dares to be the first. Shaoyang people? Is the food cooked by Shaoyang people as delicious as that cooked by Wugang people? Cut and rest.
When I was a child, I ate many flavors of pig blood cake: the economic conditions were similar, and most of them were seasoned with Chili powder and orange peel. This kind of food tastes extremely rough, but it is very spicy and delicious. When the economic conditions are good, cut all the fat and mix with pig blood and tofu salt. This oil is smooth and shiny, and the fat oil drips straight down the mouth. More exquisite is to take the whole boiled egg as the core, and then take the stirred pig blood tofu and pork belly. After cutting, there are white and yellow pistils in the black and red, which not only looks good, but also tastes more Q.
No, just after the winter solstice, my mother kept saying that she would make a pig blood cake. She used to make only half a pot, but this year she asked to make one. I like this thing.
Someone wants to ask, can you eat the whole piece of such a big pot, almost hundreds of pig blood cakes?
Don't worry, whether it's steamed, boiled, stewed or used for hot pot, there are many kinds. For example, in winter, the days are short and the nights are long. We eat at 4 o'clock and get dark at 5 o'clock. How to spend the long night? The family sat on the fire cupboard, watching TV and chattering. After 9 o'clock, they were hungry and couldn't eat dinner. If they don't eat, they can't. Now, dad will order them to steam some pig blood cakes. The three of us washed and washed, changed the fire, steamed and cut, and the whole family took a bite of oil and went to bed contentedly.
In the first month, guests come, whether they eat or not, they cook a pot of sweet wine and steam bacon at home: pig blood cake, sausage, small intestine, bacon and bacon liver. ...................................................................................................................
The main ingredient of pig blood cake is tofu, which needs to be smoked when it is made, and it needs to be put away when it is smoked, otherwise it is easy to get moldy. So my mother will cook it again in a few days, and it will naturally be older and harder.
Outsiders see pig blood cake as ugly: black and hard. If you meet someone who doesn't know the goods, take a knife to cut it, which is a big mistake. You can't cut it, and you can't cut it well. How?
It's actually quite simple. No matter what kind of bacon it is, it needs to be washed before cooking. Water boils and boils for a few minutes before it becomes "dominant". At this moment, you can cut as you like, and cut as round as you want. Like cutting tofu ... stop, stop, pig blood cake is tofu.
The most classic way: boiling, cutting, frying in oil, dripping Chili powder, frying garlic seedlings, in one word: fragrant! Two words: it smells good! Three words: it smells good.
On several occasions, the old man worked hard to bring pig blood cakes to friends from other places, and the result was a mess. From then on, I will never do such a thankless thing again.
In recent years, many people in the world are advocating the beauty of the soul, and don't judge a book by its cover. Gradually, this kind of pig blood cake with great connotation had the first "crab eater" from other places, and then it was widely circulated and hot.
This also proves that gold will shine, will be delicious, and will be carried forward one day. ......
Forget it, don't mention it, let's eat pig blood cake today!
