The language of Nu people means wine cook the meat. Generally, local chicken and good shochu are used as raw materials. When making chives, first chop the meat into small pieces or chop it, then put it in a pot and fry it with lacquer oil (a local plant edible oil) until it is crisp and Huang Shi, then anneal it a little, then pour in soju, cover the pot and cook until the wine rises, and serve.

It is a top-grade nutrition and medicine for nourishing the body, strengthening bones and muscles and treating rheumatism and gynecological diseases in Nujiang Canyon. Women in Nujiang Canyon can go to work in the fields for three days as long as they eat Xiala. "Xiala" is also a good food for ethnic hospitality in Nujiang Canyon. If you have a chance to taste it, you must have more.

second, the chicken with lacquer oil

The scent of chicken and lacquer oil is mixed together, and the fragrance comes to the nose in an instant. The chicken rolled in boiling water and the soup became yellow. At this time, scoop up chicken soup, first use thick chicken soup to appetize, and then eat a bite of chicken, which is a enjoyment on the tip of the tongue. If you use freshly squeezed lacquer oil to make lacquer-fried chicken, the taste will be more mellow. Lacquered chicken can improve immunity, warm stomach, replenish blood and qi, and has good health care effects on restoring physical fitness, removing blood stasis, refreshing brain and rheumatism.

Slate Baba is made of buckwheat flour and brown sugar as raw materials, added with clear water and made into paste, with slate as a pot, the buckwheat noodle paste is scooped in the pot and spread flat to make it even in thickness and cooked. The baked Baba is very thin, sweet and palatable, with unique flavor and rich nutrition.

when a slate is placed on a fire, it will change from soft and cuttable to solid and hard after being heated, and it will not be damaged by fire or cracked by water. Sprinkle a thin layer of furnace ash, which is an ancient method of non-stick pan handed down from ancestors. Pour the paste made of wild buckwheat flour on the slate and start to cook. During the baking of fire, the slate gradually became warm, and the burnt incense overflowed from the pores at the edge of buckwheat Baba. When Baba was cooked, it was dipped with a little honey, which was the wild honey from Nujiang Gorge, and everything was in one mountain, which made the honey full of sweetness, and the burnt incense of buckwheat and the sweet and moist mixture of wild honey. On the tip of the tongue, there is the taste of Nujiang.
