What are the local specialties of Tianjin?

It's a waste of time to come to Tianjin without eating Tianjin's special snacks. As a native of Tianjin, I will take you to see the local cuisine in Tianjin today.

Pancake guozier

Guobacai

Ear hole fried cake

Ripe pear cake

Shuixian steamed bun

Sugar-sweetened rice flour (used as a substitute for milk powder)

Millet, flour and sugar porridge

There are many snacks in Tianjin, but it's a pity that few can get out of Tianjin, and it's hard to eat in other places. Friends who come to Tianjin should not wake up naturally in the morning. If you want to taste Tianjin cuisine, you must remember to get up early and start with breakfast, otherwise you will miss all the delicious food.

First, pancakes and chicken gizzards.

Pancake fruit is an essential part of breakfast in Tianjin. There are two kinds of fried dough sticks and shortbread. When we arrive in Tianjin, we can eat with an open stomach. Unlike Shandong pancake fruit, you can choose big mung beans. The pancake spread out is elastic, smooth and delicious, and then it can be called the soul of pancake fruit-a stick or a fruit grate. Brush with fried Tianjin sweet noodle sauce, fermented milk, spicy sauce and spicy oil, sesame seeds and chopped green onion, and your mouth will water when you think about it. Of course, Tianjin people will bring one or two eggs when they go shopping, and they should eat both soft and delicious.

Second, crispy rice dishes

Locally known as "Gaba cuisine" and "Gaba cuisine", it actually means "crispy rice". Tianjin people are reluctant to throw pancakes, so they pile them up, but they are too dry to eat, so they learn from Shandong people to eat pancake soup and make their own gravy. When pancakes are broken and soaked in gravy, a "new world" is created and Gaba cuisine is born. Gaba food tastes salty and fragrant. Cut the fried mung bean cake into wickers, soak it in a large pot of marinade, then put it in a bowl, add a few spoonfuls of sesame sauce, fermented milk, spicy oil and other small ingredients, and finally sprinkle with a handful of coriander. This is a bowl of Gaba food, which Tianjin people eat 300 days a year.

Third, fried cakes have ears and eyes.

Tianjin fried cake, also known as ear-eye fried cake, is one of the top ten special snacks in Tianjin and a traditional specialty of Tianjin. Tianjin Fried Cake was founded in Guangxu period of Qing Dynasty (1900). In the old days, it was called Erduoyan fried cake by diners because its shop was close to Erduoyan Hutong and had a unique style. It is made of red beans and white sugar fried glutinous rice. This kind of fried cake is oblate in appearance, light golden in color and dark red in filling.

Tianjin people love fried cakes, whether they are fried cakes with ears or not. As long as the fried cake is golden and crisp, the filling is full and sweet, and it tastes crisp outside and tender inside, even if it is cold, it can also be called a good fried cake shop. When friends from other places arrive in Tianjin, they don't have to punch in to eat real fried cakes. When they see an oil cake shop lined up by local people, they don't have to think about just waiting in line to buy it, and make sure they don't roll over or step on thunder.

Fourth, ripe pear crisp

Tianjin traditional folk snacks. Grinding glutinous rice and rice into powder, steaming in a wooden steamer, and adding jam. The old flavor is white sugar+black sesame jujube powder. This cake tastes loose and not too sweet.

Walking in the street of Tianjin, I suddenly heard the sound of "hum, hum, hum". It must be selling "cooked pear crisp", from snacks to Tianjin.

Pears in ripe pear crisp are not real fruit pears. This "pear" means "ripe". Grind rice into powder residue, put it in a steamer and steam it with a special steamer mouth. In less than a minute, the cooked pear crisp can be steamed out and coated with acid foam paste, that is, jujube paste, or red bean paste, sugar, red fruit and other sauces.
