4 per capita
Recommended reason: It has been an old shop for decades. From a few cents at the beginning to now, it's more than one piece or two pieces, and the taste hasn't changed. Every time I go, there are many people waiting in line. Tourists see the recommended area and taste it. Most old customers go to find memories, that's the taste.
After serving as a soldier on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau for 14 years, there are dozens of kinds of snacks in Xining, Qinghai, and the following three kinds of food on the tip of my tongue are the most unforgettable.
Qinghai belongs to an animal husbandry-oriented ethnic group, and there are hundreds of cows and sheep in every family in grassland and pastoral areas. The most important feature of Qinghai's sheep is that they grow up on the grassland for a long time, unlike sheep in other areas who grow up in captivity for a long time.
The main feature of hand-grabbed mutton made from sheep that have been grazing on the grassland for a long time is that it is fat but not greasy, and it has no smell.
It's often said that eating meat without garlic will reduce the nutrition by half, which is really delicious.
For Chinese and foreign tourists visiting Xining in summer, grabbing mutton is a necessary special snack on the table.
people in the north are mainly pasta, and the special snacks in Xining, Qinghai can't be separated from noodles. There are several noodle restaurants in Renmin Street, Xining, which are very popular with the public.
I remember when I was studying in Xining, my colleagues and I often went to several noodle restaurants in Renmin Street just to eat the special snack noodles in Xining.
The most important feature of fried noodles in Renmin Street in Xining is that it is very strong. The fried noodles are oily but not greasy. When chewed in the mouth, the taste is very good, which is in line with the taste of noodles eaten by northerners.
I remember those restaurants had to wait in line for noodles on Saturday and Sunday. There is an endless stream of people eating noodles.
Niangpi in Xining, Qinghai Province and cold rice noodles in Xi 'an, Shaanxi Province are two kinds of cold rice noodles with completely different flavors, both of which are very delicious and have different tastes.
Although I have been away from Xining for almost ten years, the stuffed skin, a special snack in Xining, has remained in my stomach forever.
Every time relatives and friends in Xining visit Xi 'an, they know that we like to eat stuffed skin from Huimin Street best, so when they come to Xi 'an, my family and I can always eat stuffed skin, our favorite snack in Xining.
As a native of Qinghai, the status of Qinghai cuisine is irreplaceable in our hearts. The most famous food street in Qinghai is Mojia Street and Shuijing Lane. In fact, the small circle wants to tell everyone that there is another place where food will make you want to stop-Xinghai Road.
Baijia Nianpi
As an old street, there is no special snack in Xining-Baijia Nianpi. Time-honored brands always have their own unique taste. They are spicy and refreshing, and the taste is flexible and delicate. They not only make the skin strong, but also have a long aftertaste. No matter spring, summer, autumn and winter, there are always people waiting in line at their home, which shows that the eyes of foodies are discerning.
Muqiao Beef Noodle
Muqiao Beef Noodle is also a famous snack in Qinghai, and the store is full of medals, large and small. Beef noodles are clear soup beef Lamian Noodles, large pieces of beef, and then poured with a spoonful of chili pepper. The noodles are strong, spicy but not dry. Dry Lamian Noodles is dry beef Lamian Noodles, and oil chili pepper wraps every noodle. The color is red and bright, and the noodles can be round and flat. The tea picked in the store is Lamian Noodles's soup head, which is very delicious and necessary for dry pulling.
Yangjia Hulutou
Hulutou is named after its thick fat and gourd-like shape in the large intestine of pigs. The basic raw materials of Yangjia gourd head are pig's large intestine and pig's belly, which are white, bright, soft, smooth and tough, tender and tender, fat but not greasy, and fragrant. Try not to put oil and spicy seeds when eating, which will better highlight the taste of the original soup. The soup head is fragrant and mellow, and it is accompanied by strong steamed buns. It's great!

There are many kinds of rice noodles. It is recommended to use red oil beef rice noodles. The fried beef granules with red oil rice noodles are absolutely excellent!

Laoma's family eats beef noodles with meat and bones
Laoma's family is famous for eating meat and bones, and the most distinctive thing is that there are no chopsticks to eat! Only knives! The boneless beef is weighed before serving, and the bones are easy to pick. After eating, the bones are weighed, which is still very cost-effective, with fresh meat and reasonable price. If nothing else, the unlimited beef soup is very delicious, and a cake will make you full.
Daoxiao Noodles
Although Daoxiao Noodles is not a local specialty food, Xiao Ai still wants to recommend it to foodies. Not because of the characteristics, just because it's delicious! Making Daoxiao Noodles is a technical job. If it is thinned, it will be easy to soften, and if it is thickened, it will affect the taste. It is also necessary to pay attention to the consistency of length and uniformity of thickness, so as to make delicious food.
Mawan mutton sausage noodles

I feel too greasy after dinner. Try the special "dessert" in Xining. Candied grains are sold on the roadside of Xinghai Road. You are lucky to meet them. It doesn't matter if you can't. You can taste authentic handmade yogurt. Yogurt shops are easy to find on the street.
The source of eating food in Xining
As the capital of Qinghai, Xining has gathered almost all kinds of delicious food in the whole province. Due to the influence of altitude, the taste of delicious food in Xining is relatively heavy, and many of them are related to beef and mutton. However, the three special snacks in Xining that I counted with you today are not only light and refreshing, but also suitable for men, women and children. Eating them will make you memorable and impressive today. Qinghai stuffed skin
stuffed skin (also called steamed skin) is a popular snack in the whole northwest. It can be used as a snack, a staple food, and a cold dish at a critical time. It is omnipotent. Moreover, the stuffed skin can appear in star-rated hotels, and it can appear in street markets. It can be said that it is a very grounded food for the public and a snack for all ages.
There are two kinds of stuffed skins in Qinghai, white and black. Personally, I prefer white. The practice of making stuffed skin is still complicated. If you want to make the taste of stuffed skin shop, you really need to study hard. So generally I don't recommend doing it myself. If you really want to do it, you can learn about making videos.
Nianpi is a great love of Qinghai people. It is very easy to find in the streets and alleys of Xining, and many Nianpi are recognized by many people. Here, I would like to tell you a few people who think it is better, such as Baijia Nianpi, Xiaowu Nianpi, Qingshan Nianpi and Black Shop Nianpi. The price of stuffed skin is 8 yuan, and occasionally 7 yuan, but if you come to Qinghai, you must taste it, and don't miss it. Qinghai Yogurt
Yogurt can be said to be found all over the country, but wherever milk is produced, there may be yogurt, but I want to introduce Qinghai Yogurt to you, because I think that after eating our Qinghai Yogurt, yogurt in many places can't serve noodles at all.
Like stuffed skin, yogurt can be bought everywhere on the streets of Xining, basically in supermarkets, restaurants and snack bars, but different yoghurts have different tastes. Generally speaking, yogurt in small bottles bought in supermarkets costs only 3-5 yuan, but it is for drinking, so I don't recommend it. There is also a plastic bowl in the supermarket, which tastes good, and the price is about 4 5 yuan dollars, which is better than the bottled one.
Let's focus on yogurt in porcelain bowls. This kind of yogurt is not for drinking, because it is very thick and can be eaten with a small spoon. So in Qinghai, we don't drink yogurt, but eat yogurt. This kind of porcelain bowl yogurt is generally available in special yogurt shops or restaurants, which can't be bought in supermarkets, and most of them are made by the stores themselves. The price generally ranges from 4 yuan to 8 yuan. The famous one is Delu yogurt in Huangguang, but it is too expensive. Actually, in my opinion, as long as it is in this bowl, the taste is generally not bad.
Yak yogurt from Zhouxian County is the highest purity, and now it can be bought in Xining. This kind of yogurt is very thick and sour, and needs a lot of sugar, but it tastes the best. Sweet candied fruit
is a snack with northwest characteristics. To be precise, it is a snack in Qinghai, Gansu and Ningxia, and is usually made of highland barley or oats.
In Xining, most of the candied fruits are made from highland barley, and this process is complicated, and distiller's yeast is also needed. Therefore, the candied fruits have a certain alcohol content. After eating a bowl of candied fruits, the sweet juice is thick, soft and delicious, and the taste remains fragrant after eating.
In fact, candied fruit can be said to serve as a thirst-quenching drink more often, especially in the hottest summer, many Xining people choose either yogurt or candied fruit to quench their thirst, and occasionally they will have a stuffed skin, which is simply delicious. Conclusion
In fact, there are all kinds of special foods made from beef and mutton in Qinghai, such as hand-grabbed, chop suey, sausage noodles, and highland barley cakes made from highland barley. As long as you come to Qinghai, many foods in Xining will not let you down. Moreover, if you really want to eat Xining food, personally, it is not recommended to go to Mojia Street. You can choose Xinghai Road, and the cost performance and taste are absolutely guaranteed.
Xining * * * and Luxiaoquan chop suey shop is open from 5: to sold out (8-9 o'clock). A bowl of 3 pieces of high-quality beef chop suey must be filled with beef intestines, beef intestines and beef intestines! ! Tip ~ It's a fly house, and the fountain head on the side is beautifully decorated, but it's not as delicious as this one. This shop is local. When I arrived at the store at 7:3 today, there were less than three portions of tripe left. If you want to enjoy it, you must get up early.
I have traveled to Xining five times. Xining is the only place where the Qinghai-Tibet Line enters Tibet. It is known as the "cool capital" of China, a plateau city with an altitude of more than 2,3 meters, and the annual average temperature is only 3 degrees. Xining and Islam are rich in ethnic customs, with large-scale mosques and famous ethnic food. [yi tooth] [yi tooth] [yi tooth]
my wife is not used to the "delicate flavor" of western mutton, but that is my most "love". It's also good that I can order a small bowl of haggis, and I always eat the ugly haggis in a bowl. If I don't pay attention to it, I can fill it without washing it.
Are you going to eat in Xining or buy it home? There is a big difference between the two. Simply talking about mutton, Qinghai's sheep want Qinghai's water, and Qinghai's salt is the best, so it's the best to eat Qinghai mutton in Qinghai. If you want to go home, it's recommended that Qinghai old yogurt and menyuan milk skin are easy to carry and ready to eat!
Xining, located in the northeast of Qinghai Province, is mainly composed of Hui, Tibetan and Salar ethnic groups, with distinctive food flavor, such as hand-grabbed mutton, yogurt, stuffed skin, dog-watered urine cake, wadded noodles, crispy rice cake, mutton offal soup, etc., which are hard to eat in other places, and there are many kinds of snacks in Xining, the most representative of which is Yin Liangpi.
1. Hand-grabbed mutton
Hand-grabbed mutton is also called hand-grabbed white stripes, which is a unique way for herders in Qinghai Plateau to eat mutton.
