Cold hoof yellow
Alashan is known as the hometown of camels in China. The cold hoof yellow is a local specialty food, which is two fibrous tissues about the size of goose eggs in the palm of a camel's hand. Because camel's hoof is the most active tissue on a camel's body, its meat quality is extremely delicate and elastic, like tendons but softer than tendons, like humps and richer in fibrous tissues than humps. The cold hoof yellow made from it is crisp and delicious, smooth and tender, and it is a rare top-grade cooking.
Hand the meat
Handmade meat is a traditional food of Mongolian people for thousands of years. It means eating meat with your hands. The meat of sheep, cattle, horses, camels and other livestock and wild animals can be cooked with hand-held meat, but the hand-held meat usually refers to mutton. Handmade meat is the favorite and most commonly used traditional food of Mongolian people for thousands of years. This traditional eating method of herdsmen in grassland and pastoral areas can be traced back to ancient times. Slaughtered sheep with bones are decomposed into several small pieces and put in a clear water pot. Without salt and other seasonings, they are cooked with strong fire. When the water boils, they are immediately taken out of the pot and served on the table, dipped in salt and eaten. Their meat is tender and original.
Huaziyu
Lake Darinol in Mongolia has beautiful scenery, good water and better fish. The lake can only enter, which is especially suitable for the growth of Chinese fish. Chinese roe fish is a freshwater migratory fish. In spring, it goes upstream and upstream, spawns in the river, and then grows back in the lake. Due to its pure wild growth, the flower scales of Dali Lake are rich in fine meat, and the meat quality is tight and tough. The local specialty of Inner Mongolia is dry frying, and besides, it can be fried, roasted and braised in brown sauce. It is delicious and fresh, and it is the first-class delicacy for enthusiastic Mongolians to entertain guests.
Mongolian milk tea
Mongolian friends can't live without tea, and they can't live without tea for three meals a day. They drank milk tea instead of tea brewed from southern tea. Milk tea is called "Wugutacuo" in Mongolian. Take out the tea leaves with a cloth bag, pour the tea and fresh milk in the bucket into the pot for boiling, and air them repeatedly with a spoon, and then they can be drunk after melting. What is the most important thing in Mongolian daily diet? The answer must be tea. Mongolian people are hospitable. Guests come to the house, and the table is set. A large plate of fried rice is placed in the center of the table, surrounded by butter, milk tofu, brown sugar and various cakes in porcelain plates, and then steaming milk tea is offered. There are many kinds of milk tea.

Air-dried beef is a special product of Inner Mongolia grassland. Dried beef originated from the war grain of ancient Mongolian fighters, which is convenient to carry and rich in nutrition. The practice is also very distinctive. The selected beef is stripped of fascia and cut into large strips with a blade. Use chopped onion, ginger, salt, sugar, etc. to blend in a small bowl and marinate the meat. Hang the meat on an iron shelf and put it in a ventilated place. It can be eaten in a few days according to the air dryness in different regions and seasons. Remove the meat strips and cut them into pieces of four or five centimeters. Put the wok on the fire, pour peanut oil into the hot pot, and when it is 40% hot, add dry beef and fry it, remove it and drain it. When it is cool, it can be served on a plate.
