Video of Big Sister Hebei making traditional snacks

Enema is a very popular snack in northern China, which is mainly made of pig fat intestines and pig blood. Blood sausage in the northeast and yellow water enema in Henan are both famous snacks, including pig fat sausage and pig blood. People who like it are not tired of eating it every day, while people who don't like it smell disgusting ingredients, so the enema made is also loved and hated by some people. I don't know if you like it.

Eating enema is very popular in Henan and Hebei. Besides enema shops, there are more stalls on the street. It looks simple, but it tastes authentic. This snack was found in a roadside stall in Weixian County, Handan, Hebei Province. It has the flavor of childhood. Wei county is located at the junction of Hebei, Shandong and Henan provinces, and its food culture can be described as a hundred rivers. As long as it is delicious, it can be accepted, so it has the characteristics of Hebei and some food characteristics of other regions. Nanguan Tongluo, Shiwangji fried dough sticks, Yuanbao Jiji white flour biscuits and so on are all famous here, and they are also exported to Henan, Shandong and Shanxi.

This enema stall is a roadside stall, the boss is a big sister, an old iron pot is the essence of the stall, and the bottom of the pot is completely covered with slurry, which shows a long history. The elder sister said that his grandfather and father both do enemas. At first, grandpa was peddling on the roadside with a wooden shelf. At that time, it was not allowed to sell, so we had to do it secretly and support our families by frying and enema.

The eldest sister was poor when she was a child and dropped out of school at the age of twelve. She came out to cook enema with her father. At that time, she was not as high as the stove, so she had to stand on a small bench. She has been doing this for 30 years. The earliest enema was 50 cents each, but now it has risen to 5 yuan and 10 yuan each. The price has been changing, but the taste has not changed.

Big sister still continues the practice of grandpa and dad, using firewood as enema. This iron pot is very heavy. It is not fried with vegetable oil and peanuts, but boiled with meat knots. This meat knot is actually the fat part of pork, which is specially used to boil lard. Cut a few pieces and put them on both sides of the pot, and the lard will slowly flow out. It looks attractive and smells good. Then cut the cooked enema into small pieces and fry them black on both sides.

This black one is not burnt, but the color of pig blood after heating. Actually, it's still tender, very refreshing and smooth. Sister said that the current water enema and stew enema were later. At first, people in Hebei and Henan liked to eat original fried enema. At that time, the ingredients were not bad, the pig blood was salty and moderate, and it was delicious to fry. There is no need to put garlic sauce and pepper, and there is no smell. Hot food is delicious. Unfortunately, the composition has changed now.

But the taste of big sister's house is still very good. Pig blood is freshly purchased in rural areas and is safe to eat. A five-dollar fried enema and a sesame enema are crispy outside and tender inside, with rich taste. I don't know if you dare to eat one early in the morning, and you will be full of energy all day. There are no tables and chairs, and you are squatting on the side of the road and stuttering.
