Why do you like stews?
Dear, when we talk about stews, stews, and iron pot stews, we may first think of the Northeast. Yes, the stews in the Northeast can be said to be famous in the country. Recently, some platforms in Shanghai have made a wave of Northeastern iron pot stews.
video, so why does Northeast China have the habit of eating stew? Let’s learn about it from many aspects.
Why do Northeastern people like to eat stew?
In fact, there is no historical basis for this matter, but we can draw conclusions by looking at the region and environment of Northeast China and the character of Northeastern people.
The winter in the Northeast is particularly long, lasting nearly 6 months, and rural people basically do farm work in the summer. Most of the time in winter, they are idle at home, and the winter in the Northeast is extremely cold.
The thought of ordering hot stew makes you feel comfortable.
Northeastern people are outgoing and hospitable. Northeastern people are quite carefree in character. The Northeastern people I have met are very generous and pay attention to the cards. For example, most of them will have one or two stews when entertaining guests at home.
The two stews are basically hard vegetables, such as big bones and stewed goose. The arrangements for the guests are clearly arranged. There is not enough food left in the pot. I am not afraid of the guests having a big belly, but I am afraid of the guests.
Not having enough to eat is how Northeastern people treat guests, and it’s also a sign of Northeastern people’s fear of being embarrassed.
Northeastern people have a sentiment, just like cooking. Each dish contains their character and boldness. Take the Northeastern stew out of a pot as an example. Both Northeastern men and women are "rough and fine"
, there are chicken mushrooms stewed in the pot, and a circle of fragrant pancakes is stuck to the side of the pot. The alluring aroma of chicken stewed mushrooms is irresistible when you think about it. A circle of coarse grain pancakes against the background of chicken mushrooms is like a Northeastern person.
Personality, under the rough appearance, there is also a gentle and delicate heart belonging to the Northeastern people.
In the Northeast, winters are severely cold and the frost-free period is short. Basically, the heating season comes after summer.
In the past, it was even worse in the Northeast.
In the cold season, a group of people gather around a steaming cauldron, which can not only satisfy the appetite but also ward off the cold. Moreover, a group of people eating around the pot also makes the food more delicious.
Another point is that the diet of northerners is more tolerant, and the difference between the diet of northerners and southerners is still very obvious. Southerners pay attention to exquisite food, while all the ingredients of northerners' diet can be put together to make different stews.
Combination can create different flavors in stew.
In the north, we don’t pay much attention to the presentation. All the ingredients are stewed in one pot. The ingredients are matched very well. The delicious food is served in one pot. The steaming color, aroma and flavor make people drool just by looking at it.
And different regions have different customs and eating habits, but now due to the integration of northern and southern people, the eating habits are constantly merging, and we are also influencing each other. Southerners also think that hoarding vegetables tastes good, and northerners also try it occasionally
The exquisite side dishes of the south, especially Sichuan culture, have become popular in various parts of China in recent years, which has caused the eating habits of the north and the south to continue to influence each other, and the differences have gradually decreased.
Speaking of Northeastern stews, many foreign friends may first think of Northeastern stews in iron pots. This is why iron pot stew videos have become quite popular on some platforms recently.
Many delicacies in Gada in the Northeast retain traditional Chinese food production techniques. There are no artificial seasonings, and the mellow taste of the food comes from nature.
There are also many kinds of Northeastern stews, such as pork stewed with vermicelli, sauerkraut stewed with big bones, pork ribs stewed with beans, chicken stewed with mushrooms, etc. They are all great for rice, but the one that ranks first in my mind is the iron pot stewed goose.
Friends who haven't tried it recommend giving it a try. It's really delicious.
Having said so much, we should also understand why the Northeast is accustomed to eating various stews. When writing about the various stews in the Northeast, the editor really kept drooling. I have never tried the Northeast stews.
Friends, I really recommend giving it a try. Maybe you will suddenly fall in love with it after trying it once.
wish you a happy life!
