What snacks and specialties can you recommend in Hunan?

I am a foodie in Hunan. I have lived in Hunan for 30 years, and I know and like the delicious snacks in Hunan.

I recommend: grilled fish, Mao Mao fish, salted duck, orchid radish, Pingjiang Chili sauce, Pingjiang qianzi, longevity sauce, sweet potato slices and fennel slices, which will definitely be liked.

1, grilled fish, Mao Mao fish

Grilled fish is a traditional dish in Hunan and belongs to Hunan cuisine. Take out the internal organs of small fish, put them in a pot, bake them, let them cool, and smoke them with chaff, peanut shell, orange peel, sawdust, etc. This kind of fish is not only delicious, but also easy to carry and collect. Fired fish can be seen everywhere in Hunan, but the burned fish in Guanzhuang reservoir area of Liling, Hunan Province is the most classic. By improving the processing technology, the fish tastes more fragrant and the fish meat is more chewy. The grilled fish in Guanzhuang Reservoir is the most distinctive local agricultural product. It has a unique flavor, is sweet and delicious, stimulates appetite and is deeply loved. It is the best among grilled fish.

The water system in Hunan is particularly developed, with rivers and streams everywhere. In the past, wild river fish were generally used as ingredients, but now they have to be kept in captivity. In the past, it was dried with firewood and then fried, which is very representative of Hunan cuisine.

I usually just eat it as a snack. I used to eat grilled fish when I watched food programs like "The Tip of the Tongue" in the middle of the night. I don't envy anything on TV at all. . .

2, salted duck

Hunan spicy duck is a famous dish in Hunan province. It is made of more than 30 kinds of precious Chinese herbal medicines, 10 kinds of spices, soaking, air drying, baking and other 15 processes. The finished product is deep red in color, crisp in meat, rich in sauce flavor and long in aftertaste. It has the functions of promoting blood circulation, invigorating spleen, nourishing stomach and beauty beauty, and is a kind of flavor food popular in the north and south of the country. The product is fragrant, spicy, sweet, hemp, salty, crisp and soft, and has the characteristics of mellow and delicious taste, good color and flavor, low fat but not greasy, endless aftertaste and convenient eating.

I only recognize one brand of salted duck, Jiu Ge salted duck. I can eat other things, but I won't buy them. Jiuge is so popular in the local area that basically only this brand is recognized. Although it's cheap, the packaging is old-fashioned, and you'll know when you eat it.

I usually eat it as a snack, and I can eat it as soon as it is steamed. It tastes better than nothing. Jiuge has been done for decades, but it has been doing local business and has not been widely promoted. Oh, I'm dying. I post on this topic in the middle of the night. There are still two bags in stock at home. I'll go through a bag first to relieve my hunger.

3, orchid radish

Blue radish, also known as hemp fiber radish, is a thin, tender and fresh radish rich in Dongting Lake area in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, supplemented by Chili powder and salt. After improvement, the radish is still a whole after being cut several times. Mention it, like an orchid in full bloom, and like the rain gear and hemp fiber of farmers in the past, hence the name. It retains the traditional spicy taste and has a crisp, tender and fragrant aftertaste. At the same time, it also helps digestion and increases appetite, and has been selling well in the northern Hunan market.

Yes, you're right. Ten bags are 28.8 yuan. This is still a price increase. Eating and making snacks are great. Still the taste in memory, refreshing, crispy and spicy. When I was at school, I had no money. Orchids and radishes were served with white rice, rice porridge and instant noodles. . . .

4. Dried Chili sauce in Pingjiang, qianzi in Pingjiang and dried longevity sauce.

Dried Pingjiang sauce is a delicious traditional snack, belonging to Hunan cuisine. Originated from Longevity Street, Pingjiang County, Yueyang City, an important town on the border of Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi, also known as Changshou Dry Sauce, it was initiated by He Weifeng, a centenarian in Xianfeng period of Qing Dynasty (1847- 1947). The dried bean curd made by traditional pickling and baking methods in Longevity Street is square inch in size, thick in copper coins, black and shiny, and full of fragrance, so it is named "Duozhen Dry Sauce". Every ten roots use a circle of cotton thread, which is called a tube. The taste is mellow, chewy and refreshing. By the time of the Republic of China, Changshou dry sauce had spread all over the border area of Hunan, Hubei and Jiangxi, and became a major specialty of Pingjiang.

Spicy qianzi, the following one is very spicy and fragrant, super appetizing.

Dry sauce, originally black, is very pure, so you can savor the taste of dry incense.

5, sweet potato slices, fennel slices

Sweet potatoes come from nature and are made by the most traditional methods. The finished product is soft sweet potato chips, which are chewy and chewy. You can taste the natural sweetness in your mouth after chewing, which is very comfortable. Do not add any natural snacks suitable for all ages.

Another kind is fried, which is softer and more delicious than the top one, but the bottom one. I cann't believe I didn't find an online store. It's very thin and crisp, and you can still eat the natural sweetness of sweet potatoes. I found a company to provide similar products for your reference. I ate while writing, and accidentally ate half of it. . .
