Although mutton soup has many advantages, not all local people like to drink mutton soup, especially in the north and south of China. Attitudes towards mutton soup vary greatly. For most northerners, mutton soup is a rare delicacy, and many places in the north have the habit of drinking mutton soup from winter to Sunday. However, in the south, delicious mutton soup is almost ignored and few people like to drink it. In the south, mutton soup is only the favorite of a few people, and compared with other ways of eating mutton, mutton soup is only a minority cooking method in the south. Just like the four famous mutton soups in China, almost all of them are mainly northern mutton soups. Why is the mutton soup regarded as delicious by northerners almost neglected in the south?
In fact, there are many reasons. First of all, because the north has been dominated by nomadic people since ancient times, there are many kinds of sheep, which are more suitable for breeding sheep. There are many sheep, and the price is very affordable. So mutton is a common meat in the north, but because the south is not suitable for raising sheep, the number of sheep is very small. In contrast, mutton is less common and more expensive than other meats. Moreover, mutton has a unique smell, and mutton soup has a stronger smell than other ways of eating mutton. It is difficult for southerners to accept this taste, but for northerners, the taste of mutton is processed, but the stew is unique and delicious.
In addition, because of the climate difference between north and south, because mutton has a warming effect. The south, which leads to spring-like seasons, does not need to drink mutton soup for nourishment, while the climate in the north is cold, so mutton soup is a rare tonic. Of course, with the gradual narrowing of the differences in eating habits nowadays. Nowadays, many southerners like mutton soup more and more, but there is still a big difference between north and south. And unlike northerners who can't live without mutton soup all year round, mutton soup is only occasionally drunk by southerners. Moreover, the way of eating is ever-changing, and it is particularly important to know when and where. Eating can also be a way, and eating habits are ever-changing. Different regions have different eating habits. So even the same ingredients are very different in different places, but in any case, mutton soup is really a very good taste.
