Yunnan Special Food 1: Crossing the Bridge Rice Noodles
I believe everyone doesn't need me to introduce how famous Yunnan Crossing the Bridge Rice Noodles are. No matter when we go to the supermarket at ordinary times, we will always see a large shelf full of various brands of Yunnan Crossing the Bridge Rice Noodles. Or when we go to some noodle restaurants to eat noodles, we can also see the name of Yunnan crossing the bridge rice noodles on the menu.
But unfortunately, the most authentic flavor can only be enjoyed in many local specialties, and so can Yunnan rice noodles crossing the bridge. The essence of a good bowl of rice noodles crossing the bridge lies in the perfect integration of its soup, rice noodles and ingredients.
The materials used for crossing the bridge rice noodles may be a little thicker than the rice noodles we usually eat, but this does not affect its taste at all. Many people may worry that such a thick rice noodle will not taste good. Actually, it is not, because the shops selling Yunnan rice noodle crossing the bridge will use special methods to make its soup base, so we will see that besides rice noodle, there will be very rich ingredients in a bowl of Yunnan rice noodle crossing the bridge, such as tenderloin, pork, etc. There are a few chopped green onions floating on the soup, which looks really appetizing.
rice noodles are covered with the oil in the soup, but they feel refreshing when eaten. I suggest that after you go to Yunnan, you must order this rice noodle crossing the bridge in the local noodle restaurant and have a good mouth addiction. I believe you will be impressed by it after eating it once.
Yunnan Special Cuisine II: Bait Block
Compared with Yunnan Crossing the Bridge Rice Noodles, this kind of food is relatively rare, because it is a specialty of Yunnan, and it is hard to eat in other places. Most people may have never heard of its name.
The way to make a bait block is to steam the rice in a steamer, and then put it in a mold, so that it will become the bait needed by the bait block. Perhaps some stores will not use artificial materials to simmer bait blocks for convenience and trouble, but will use machines to cook them, but they must steam the rice before putting it into the machines.
Generally speaking, the bait block is what people eat most. The bait block is made into a cake shape, and then baked on a smokeless charcoal fire. When it is baked until the surface is golden yellow, it can almost be taken out to eat. At this time, coating your favorite sauce on its surface, such as Chili sauce, ketchup, etc., has become the most common bait block for everyone.
In addition to eating the roast bait block alone, you can also add some ingredients such as beef and mutton or fried dough sticks to make it taste richer. Another way is to fry the bait block, cut it into small pieces, and then fry it with ham, eggs or vegetables, which has become a delicious delicacy.
Yunnan Special Cuisine III: Milk Fan
Milk fan is also one of the unique cuisines in Dali, Yunnan Province. Before go to dali, I had no idea what such things were. In fact, the practice of milk fans is relatively simple. Local women like to make goat's milk or milk look like kraft paper you see, and then fry it in an oil pan.
in less than a moment, the thrown "brown paper" instantly turned into a golden roll with many bubbles on it, which looked very appetizing. Before making it, the store will sprinkle a layer of white sugar on it, which tastes a little like grilled cheese, fragrant and crisp. It is a delicious food that I recommend everyone to taste after going to Dali together.
The most spectacular scene is that when we visited the Bai farmyard, we saw that their yard was covered with such breast fans, and they were all very beautiful milky white, which contrasted with the sky blue sky, just like clouds falling into the world one after another. At that time, you will sigh that human beings can still make a fairyland-like beauty on the ground. Even if you don't taste this snack, just looking at it will be very pleasing to the eye.
Yunnan Special Cuisine 4: Huopiao Beef
The name Huopiao Beef originated from the fact that a very large copper ladle was used as its pot when eating this dish, so Huopiao Beef got its name.
When we go to eat Huopiao beef, we will find another phenomenon. Now everyone may eat hot pot with an induction cooker or a soup pot, but in this Huopiao beef shop in Yongchang, Baoshan, you will find that the hot pot used by the store is the old-fashioned hot pot that burns charcoal, which has a very retro taste.
Their beef is fat and thin, very tender, smooth and refreshing. It won't make you feel greasy when you eat it, but it can also make you feel the tenderness and delicacy of beef. It can be regarded as a very low-key food. In this pot of Huopiao beef, you can not only eat delicious beef, but also find that the store has put very fresh seasonal vegetables in the soup, so even if you feel a little faint when tasting beef, you can immediately take out a piece of Chinese cabbage to refresh your mouth.
Of course, when tasting this dish, we can also choose the soup base according to our usual eating habits, which includes spicy soup base and clear soup pot base. In addition to eating their roast beef, we can also ask the store to add some beef offal and other side dishes when ordering. Generally speaking, eating roast beef is not much different from eating hot pot in restaurants. All we can do is to bring our stomachs and mouths to enjoy a good meal.
