1, farmyard manure stew
The fat of this dish refers to pigskin. Expand the pigskin, make it into the shape of a swim bladder, and then simmer in the broth until it is crisp but not rotten, soft and palatable. At the wedding banquet of old Yancheng people, there must be fat meat, which is also an old tradition in Yancheng.
2. Braised glutinous rice balls
Tangyuan, also called Zi Yuan by Yancheng people, is refined from glutinous rice flour and pork. Round jiaozi is soaked in thick soup, half floating and half sinking, like a brown ball. When placed on chopsticks, they are flexible and elastic. Eating it in your mouth is tender and delicious, and it doesn't feel greasy at all.
3, radish roasted mussels
This dish looks very simple. The main ingredients are radish and mussels, and mussels represent seafood. The biggest significance of this dish is to tell everyone that there is seafood on the table. Little seafood with common radish and mussels is more delicious than delicacies.
4, big chicken holding chicken
Big chicken refers to chicken, which is basically presented by shredded chicken, and chicken is not an egg, but a quail egg. A bite of shredded chicken and a quail egg make the soup delicious and nutritious.
Step 5 lift the cake
In Yancheng, every household will cook this kind of local food with Yancheng characteristics: cakes. Beat the eggs into a bowl, stir them evenly, pour them into a pot with medium fire, cover them with low fire, stew them into round cakes, cut them into diamond-shaped pieces, put the onion and ginger into the pot, put the egg pieces into the pot, boil them with high fire, sprinkle with leeks, and sprinkle with a little pepper and sesame oil after boiling.
6, taro and shrimp soup
Pour oil into the pan, heat it, and add diced taro, diced cooked meat, shrimp skin, etc. Stir fry, add thick soup and cook for 20 minutes. Finally, add seasoning and serve. The soup is thick and smooth and very delicious.
7. Home-cooked braised pork
Braised pork is very popular not only in Yancheng, but also in many parts of the country. Its production is basically a routine practice, so I won't elaborate here.
8. Braised fish
Generally, it is made of crucian carp, which is a common practice, but I can eat two bowls of rice in this fish soup.
The above eight dishes are the eight bowls in Yancheng people's hearts. There may be some places slightly different from the above. Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
I am a lonely dust, a grain of sand. I am committed to recommending local food to everyone. Pay attention to me if you like me. Your concern is the driving force for my continuous creation!
