What local cuisines are worth eating in Hulunbeier?

I believe everyone is familiar with Hulunbeier, but when it comes to food, it is estimated that not many people know it. Is there any local food here? This small series will tell you carefully, come and have a look.

In China's diet, there are many foods from Mongols, such as barbecue and mutton hotpot. It seems that whenever Mongolia is mentioned, there is a feeling that Mongolia loves meat too much.

In fact, the Mongolian diet is divided into two seasons, summer and winter. Summer is April-10, and the main food is dairy products. During this period, I ate less meat. Mainly in winter, we need to eat meat to gain weight and keep out the cold.

Hohhot is located in the hinterland of China's northern fortress. Ancient times were the way for nomadic people in the north to migrate. Nomadic people have no concept of farming, live by water, have a single diet, often eat meat and dairy products, and are full of energy.

It still affects the diet of Shanxi people and Hui people living here. Muslim cuisine, Mongolian cuisine and Shanxi cuisine have become the most distinctive catering types here.

Legend has it that Kublai Khan, commander-in-chief of Yuan Shizu, was sent to the south. Kublai Khan was hungry and waiting to eat mutton. He ordered the troops to advance and shouted, "Mutton! Mutton! "

Knowing that he had a bad temper, the chef used his quick wits to cut off more than ten pieces of thin meat with a flying knife and put them in boiling water to stir a few times. When the color of the meat changed, he immediately fished it out and put it in a bowl and sprinkled it with fine salt. This is the original origin of instant-boiled mutton.
