Why are the "four bad goods" in Suzhou so popular? It looks ugly, but it tastes delicious.

In Suzhou, a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, a dish of rotten edamame, a dish of rotten goose and a bottle of beer ..... set up a small table, sit around the yard with your family at night, chat leisurely and enjoy delicious food, which is very bourgeois in the old Suzhou style.

Perhaps in today's society, there are many high-rise buildings, traffic jams, and the pace of life is accelerating ... The life that once existed can only be remembered as a beautiful existence, but Suzhou people's love for junk goods can be said to be deeply rooted in the bone marrow and cannot be changed.

Although the junk in Suzhou looks as good as its name, it doesn't look so good. Even a big pot, or a lot of it, can't be associated with food. But I have to say, the taste is really charming.

Many people say that the bad goods in Suzhou are actually halogen goods. Indeed, at first glance, they are very similar. And the production process is also very similar, all of which are marinated sauces.

But it is often the small differences in details that make the taste of food different, which is precisely the charm of bad goods.

The rotten goods in Suzhou can be divided into two parts, one is "rotten" and the other is "goods". "Bad" refers to a method of making cold dishes with distiller's grains, and "goods" refers to all cold dishes made with distiller's grains.

From this point of view, Suzhou's "rotten goods" are always cooked and cooked, but they are always made into cold dishes. Besides, there must be a good smell of wine.

Today, Lao Yu selected four kinds of Suzhou's "rotten goods" and introduced them to you.

Rotten goose is the most representative of all "rotten goods" and the favorite of the old Suzhou generation. In A Dream of Red Mansions, there is a description of Jia Baoyu eating bad goose's feet.

The most authentic and delicious rotten goose must be Taihu goose. Taihu goose doesn't have huge sarcoma like lion-headed goose. It has no sarcoma all over its body, and its meat is tight, tender and small.

And because its frontal bone is softer than other kinds of geese, it is also a pleasure for us to chew the goose bone while enjoying the goose meat. It tastes delicious, and the more you chew it, the more fragrant it is. It is very delicious.

It is said that the bad soup of the bad goose must be made of old bad. Even more exaggerated, it is best to use the old one from three years ago.

We are also particular about eating bad geese. You can't spend the night! Once the night is over, the delicious taste of the bad goose is gone.

It seems that every kind of food that can be called delicious food can't just look at the appearance, but also dig deep, which is very particular. Perhaps, this is the characteristic of food!

The rotten chicken in Suzhou is very similar to the boiled chicken in Guangdong, which is characterized by freshness and tenderness. However, the boiled chicken is made of "three soaks and three extractions", while the bad chicken is first boiled in boiling water for five minutes, and then boiled in water for twenty minutes.

Therefore, the famous "red bone and blood" in Guangdong white-cut chicken does not exist in white-cut chicken. Generally speaking, bad chicken is completely cooked on the basis of ensuring the crispy taste of chicken.

Because the bad soup of Suzhou bad chicken used 50% of bad shochu and Shaoxing's fragrant bad wine, the bad chicken has a special kind of wine aroma. And because it is soaked in rotten soup for a long time, the taste is more intense, which is different from the light of white-cut chicken.

In fact, regarding the third kind of bad goods, Lao Yu originally wanted to talk about bad ducks. But the method of making bad duck and bad chicken is basically the same, nothing special. So, I thought of "bad edamame".

After all, we also eat edamame on weekdays, so what's the difference between edamame on weekdays and "bad edamame" that Suzhou people like to eat?

The edamame we eat on weekdays is basically boiled with water and salt, star anise and other spices. The rotten edamame that Suzhou people like to eat is cooked with rotten soup. Therefore, the most direct difference in taste is that the bad edamame contains a bouquet that we usually eat.

Because the "bad goods" of bad edamame are more suitable for home production, we might as well try it at home according to the tutorial:

1, soak the cleaned edamame in clean water for about 30 minutes.

2. Open a big fire to cook edamame.

3. Take the cooked edamame out of the pot immediately and soak it in cold water until it is completely cooled.

4. Prepare rotten soup.

Seasoning spices: salt, sugar, star anise, cinnamon, yellow wine, etc. As for the specific dosage, it can be determined according to personal taste.

5. Soak the edamame in the prepared rotten soup for about 0/2 hours.

Mixing noodles with bad goods is what we are going to talk about today. There are actually two kinds of bad sides. One is cold noodles, and the other is Yangchun noodles.

Cold noodles are actually "cold noodles with fans" that locals often say. Boil in water, blow dry with a fan, and then add the dried noodles mixed with Taicang bad oil.

It is characterized by chewiness, distinct roots, delicate fragrance and elegance, and the more you eat it, the more fragrant it becomes.

Yangchun noodles should actually be called "Su-style Yangchun noodles". Cook the noodles, soak the soup, and serve with all kinds of junk. Bad chicken, bad duck, bad goose, etc.

This kind of noodles, besides the delicate noodle soup, is not the ordinary noodles we eat on weekdays, or Lamian Noodles. This kind of noodles is mixed with duck eggs, and its biggest feature is toughness, chewiness and good taste. Moreover, the cooked noodles are not easy to agglomerate, which can make the rotten soup more delicious.

Although the "rotten goods" in Suzhou are delicious, there are obvious seasonal restrictions. Generally, it is the most popular in summer, and maybe the next month or two will be the last time "bad goods" appear.

Therefore, if there is an opportunity, you might as well accompany the "autumn tiger" and eat more quickly to relieve your hunger. Don't dislike "rotten goods" just because their value is not high. It is really a very sought-after delicacy in Suzhou people's hearts!
