The local custom is to celebrate the wedding.
During the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, due to the development of the "Man-Han Banquet" in the catering industry, it was divided into the "Shang Bazhen", "Middle Bazhen" and "Lower Bazhen". Among them, the eight large bowls were included in the "Lower Bazhen" Jane". Since the ingredients in the eight bowls vary from place to place, the dishes are also different. However, the same thing is that the eight bowls from all over the country are carefully made, naturally delicious, and are very popular among locals and tourists.
Tianshui Eight Bowls is one of them. Not only are the ingredients well-chosen, but the workmanship is also very particular. It is mainly composed of four meat and four vegetables. Among them, the four vegetarian dishes generally use vermicelli, radish, kelp, and tofu as ingredients. First cook the selected pork in a large pot. After it is cooked, spread a layer of honey on the skin of the meat while it is hot, then put it into the oil pan and fry until the skin of the meat turns yellow-red and comes out of the pan. After the meat has cooled, cut it into pieces according to the requirements of the four-meat bowl and put it into bowls.
It is said that the four bowls of meat are selected from the front breast meat, middle rib meat, rear hip meat, and elbow meat. The meat materials used in these four bowls of meat are different, and each bowl of meat has its own name. Elbow, crispy pork, button pork, square pork. Therefore, the eight bowls of meat and vegetables are evenly matched, which is not only delicious, but also beneficial to the balanced intake of nutrients. It is a delicacy worth trying.
If I have the chance, I really want to try this eight bowls.
