0 1. Sauted duck In Changde, no duck can swim across Dongting Lake alive. Besides the valley duck bowl mentioned above, there are salted ducks and duck overlord? It really makes the duck head bigger.
As a symbolic product of chinese national geography, Changde salted duck is famous far and wide, and there are many brands in the local area, such as then, child fat, Yang dwarf and so on. However, if you want to eat the old-fashioned salted duck, the locals will still recommend the elixir and kindly remind you that it should be slightly spicy.
When I came to the head office on Ziyuan Road, it was as if I had returned to the state-owned store decades ago. In the transparent glass window, all kinds of sauced foods are arranged neatly, and the head of the room is covered with shiny sauced ducks. Aunties in white hats and jackets are busy packing in a vacuum. When they see someone coming to the window, they will go forward and weigh it.
Eating salted duck is addictive, the meat is not dry or firewood, and it is full of sauce flavor when chewed, which is followed by compound spicy taste and full of stamina. But even if it is "hot enough to roll", I still can't help but keep eating.
Changde people are definitely the top three in Hunan's ability to eat spicy food. Many people can eat moderate spicy food and special spicy food.
On this trip, people usually take several bags home. Six yuan of bean skin is cheap and delicious, as well as lotus root, duck feet, duck wings, beef, fish and so on. In order to keep it convenient, I also bought duck feet and wings with soy sauce in bags. The result is completely different from that of bulk weighing. There is no soy sauce and spicy taste, and the taste is as light as boiling water.
02. Dubawang Dubawang means all of a duck, including duck neck, duck head, duck tongue, duck wings, duck feet, duck rack, duck liver, duck gizzard and duck intestines. From head to toe, from the inside out, there is no waste at all.
Changde Duck Overlord is like a Hunan version of Shaxian snack. You can see it wherever you go. Everyone is familiar with the smell. And many Changde people are familiar with the taste of duck overlord from Gaoshan Street, which has been open for more than ten years.
The meat of Dubawang marinated in salt water is wet and tastes slightly Chinese herbal medicine. Duck neck, duck wing and duck head are so spicy that they want to be gentle, while duck intestines completely soaked in oil juice are so spicy that they want to eat after they are ready. This is really sadistic.
There is also snail meat, which is also a surprise. It is big, firm and has a compound flavor of pepper and perilla. This is a must for wine.
There are two Tengji stores in Gaoshan Street. Some people say that the old is true. I asked the cashier aunts in two stores, and they explained that it was the same boss. At present, Tengji has only four stores, and the other two are in Jinzuan and Ziqiao.
03. trotters Changde people also like to eat trotters. From the size of rice noodles in the morning to snacks at night, pig's trotters can be seen everywhere.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, I came to the old Dequan pig's foot shop in Xiyuan community. I didn't expect to be rejected. I don't want to call the number on the signboard. As a result, the boss said that I didn't open the door until after four o'clock. "Do you want to buy it now? I'll open the door for you first. "
I followed my boss into the shop and saw a big pot of stewed pig's trotters on the table, which was glowing with attractive red and bright luster.
After being heated in salt water, pig's trotters really smell good. With a gentle bite, the bones are peeled off, the meat is soft and rotten, and the spicy degree is moderate. In addition, the juice mixed with balsamic vinegar is very greasy.
04. Betty spicy meat spicy meat is not meat, but tofu skin.
When I was at school, I always bought spicy meat around the small workshop in Beidi Lane on my way home. If I catch up with the pot, the spicy meat is really fragrant and crisp.
▲ Changde spicy meat can be seen everywhere and can also be bought in small workshops.
Now Bedi spicy meat has moved into the industrial park, where there is a big factory building, leaving only a small shop for retail in an alley opposite the middle school. People often come here specially to get closer to this childhood memory.
Spicy meat is very spicy and tastes very special. Another yellow package of Beidi-style dried bean curd is also delicious. Chewing is silky, sour and juicy, refreshing and appetizing.
05. Betty mung bean paste
I bought spicy meat, and then went deep into the alley. I arrived at Beidi Lane. When I grew up, I drank green bean paste many times outside, but I couldn't help frowning. I miss the mung bean paste in the north dike here.
When I was a child, spicy meat in the north was a daily snack. If there is still money, it will be perfect with a cup of Bedie mung bean paste.
This shop is less than 10 square meter, with only a table and three things:
Mung bean paste, jujube tea, lotus seed soup.
The green bean paste is as delicious as before. Mung beans are peeled and ground into fine sand. It slides into the throat when it is sucked through a straw, and it is especially cool after being chilled.
In Changde, from morning till night, you will find that most of them have been circulating for several years. Maybe some of them are not beautiful and can't seduce the appearance party instantly. But you have to believe that for thousands of years, Changde people have never treated their tongues badly in eating this matter.

It's best to book tickets one week in advance, otherwise you can only stand there.
Be sure to go to the old west gate in the city center. This old block, which covers an area of 100 mu, won the 20 18 British National Landscape Award. Taking the moat as the axis, Laoximen uses various techniques such as flat bridge, pavilion bridge, covered bridge, arch bridge and pavilion step, and combines the pavilion houses, ancient city walls, blockhouses and other cultural relics in Changde, which is worth pondering. In the evening, you can also go to the Old West Gate Theatre to see a play. There are also poetic city walls, large and small river streets and other landscapes worth visiting.
