After leaving the hotel, the temperature in Huzhou was a little higher than that in Yangcheng and Xiangjiang, so Ye Gui put on a coat.
It's time to go to work now, and there are pedestrians everywhere on the street.
Pedestrians who slept late held two buns in their hands and hurried towards the bus.
They also hoped that the bus driver would run all the way to help them save the fifty yuan deducted for being late.
There are also people who are not in a hurry and sit down and eat slowly.
You can tell at a glance that you are already numb to being late. Anyway, being late for a second is considered late, and being late for an hour is also late.
It's better to be an hour late and have a big one!
Ye Gui found a shop selling meat swallows and ordered a piece of meat swallows. After looking around, he found a place to sit down.
"In fact, Hu Jian's breakfast is also very rich, including laohua, pot side, tofu brain, soy milk, flatbread and fried dough sticks, peanut soup, shrimp cakes, oyster cakes, dried noodles, tea eggs..."
“It’s just that there are so many varieties, there are always people who like to make breakfast that is unique to their seniority!”
"But this is normal, just like fighting for favor in the harem. Those who have been in the palace for a long time and have seniority will look down on those with background, those with background will look down on young and favored ones, and those who are favored will look down on new ones...
"
"It's just that in the minds of most Huzhou people, the best food is the laohua and pot-side paste downstairs!"
"Guobianpao" is simply called "Dingbianpao" or "Maojie". Legend has it that in ancient times, a housewife ground rice paste and prepared to steam Jiu Chong Kueh. A guest came unexpectedly and the rice cooked at home was not enough. The housewife had an idea and cooked rice beside the pot where the vegetables were burning.
The rice paste was baked around, and it was both a dish and a meal. The guests were very satisfied with the meal and praised it, so the paste on the side of the pot spread!"
"Huzhou's pot side paste uses clam juice as the soup. It is boiled in the pot to get the fresh flavor. Then the ground rice milk is poured around the edge of the pot. The rice milk is boiled into a dry skin on the edge of the pot.
Then scrape it into the soup with a spatula, add celery, green onions, dried shrimps, cooked dried fish, small intestines, clams, mushrooms, cabbage, etc. as seasonings. After it boils, you will have a pot of boiling hot pot with mushy sides."
"Gutian hotpot paste has a unique flavor. The soup is made from pork ribs, pig intestines, small intestines, etc. When eating, you can add pig intestines and small intestines, and serve it with meat buns, spring rolls, pancakes and other snacks!"
"Zhangzhou pot side paste is made with red oil braised soup. The soup contains delicious oysters, pink meat tendons, meat cakes, small intestines, large intestines, shelled fresh shrimps, etc., plus vinegar, diced coriander, fried minced garlic
, and Zhangzhou’s unique spicy oil! This is also very good!”
When Ye Gui was talking, he didn't pay any attention to the boss next to him.
The boss had a dark face: Boy, you are very brave!
Let’s talk about other delicacies in our store that specializes in selling meatballs.
Are you trying to ruin things?
But Ye Gui didn't notice it yet and continued: "In addition to the paste on the edge of the pot, it is also the same as laohua!"
"The so-called Laohua actually means Laohua rice noodles. The rice noodles are made from Xinghua rice flour originating from Putian, which has a fine texture and is cooked as soon as it is scooped. Therefore, it is commonly known as Lao Xinghua, and is later referred to as Laohua."
Seeing that Ye Gui wanted to continue talking, the boss couldn't help it anymore:
"Handsome guy, we don't sell pot paste here!"
"We don't sell laohua here, would you like me to go next door and buy one for you?"
Ye Gui: "..."
"Ah hahahaha, boss, I'm sorry, I want a piece of meat swallow. If the taste meets my requirements, I will promote your store in the live broadcast room, it's free!"
Ye Gui laughed.
If not for being handsome and lucky, the boss's resentment disappeared when he saw Ye Gui smiling so happily.
"Okay, then you've come to the right place. Among the communities around here, my house makes the best meatballs. Would you like a large portion or a small portion?"
"Small portion, and save some room for the hot pot paste!"
The boss's relaxed face fell down again.
This kid!
He walked into the kitchen, and Ye Gui said: "At first glance, the meat is wrapped in skin and the meat is similar to the wonton wontons we eat. In fact, its skin is very particular. It is carefully selected lean pork. It is hammered with a wooden stick.
After hammering it into minced meat, add high-quality sweet potato flour and stir evenly to make it. It is paper-like in shape, white, smooth and moist, and exudes the aroma of meat. It has a bird's nest flavor when eaten, and is very refreshing, so it is known as meat swallow skin."
"According to legend, as early as the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, there was a royal censor in Pucheng County, Hu Jian, who retired from old age and returned to his hometown. He lived in a mountainous area. After eating too many mountain delicacies, he felt that he was dull. So his chef took the lean meat from the pork leg and cooked it.
Use a wooden stick to beat the meat into a puree, mix in an appropriate amount of sweet potato flour, roll it into paper-thin sheets, cut it into three-inch square pieces, wrap it with meat filling, make it into a flat dish, cook it and eat it with soup."
"Master Yushi felt smooth, crispy, and refreshing after eating it in his mouth. He kept exclaiming that it was wonderful. He asked what kind of snack it was. The chef said flat meat swallow because it looked like a flying swallow. Later, the flat pork swallow was combined with
The duck eggs are boiled together, because in Huzhou dialect, duck eggs are homophones for "pressing chaos" and "pressing waves", which means peace, and there is also the saying of "Taiping Yan".
"But I think a lot of food and buildings in ancient times were based on 'If you don't do it well, you'll lose your head.' I think this should be promoted. For example, if you don't play football well, you'll lose your head!"
At this time, a buddy next to him said: "Handsome guy, don't mention football so early in the morning, it's too exciting!"
Ye Gui: "..."
Everyone: "..."
After Ye Gui finished speaking, the boss had already served this meat swallow.
Sprinkle a handful of chopped green onion, shrimp, coriander and seaweed on top!
Below is a meatball as big as half a baby's fist.
The skin of pork swallow is made of pork, and after cooking it is not as soft as flour skin.
Still staying strong!
And the inside is tender and pink, which is also very beautiful!
This piece of skinny pork looks appetizing!
Ye Gui scooped out a meat swallow with a spoon!
The extra skin of the meat swallow is still shaking!
Not only is it delicious, it’s also fun!
Ye Gui bit off half of the pork swallow in one bite: "The crispy swallow skin scratched between the teeth, and the fresh and sweet juice of the meat filling burst out in the mouth. Moreover, the sweet potato starch added did not take over the main role, but only served to cushion the light freshness.
sweet!"
“Very delicious meatball!”
He ate the remaining half and sighed: "Wrap the meat with meat, and it will moisturize everything silently!"
