First, grab the meat.

Hand-grabbed mutton is the representative dish of Linxia. There is a saying: "Speaking of robbing, I think of Linxia", "When guests come, it is a waste of time to come to Linxia without robbing". Grasping mutton by hand has almost become a masterpiece of Linxia food culture. According to research, Linxia was called "Pahan" in ancient times, and Hezhou sheep was also called "robe sheep". It used to be a tribute of the imperial court, and "Hank Red Mutton" has always been famous. Dongxiang mutton, in particular, is tender in fat, little and delicate in fiber, rich in protein and various trace elements. Long-term consumption can enhance human body's resistance and immune function, and has the functions of warming kidney and strengthening culvert, strengthening body constitution and refreshing mind, strengthening spleen and stomach, beauty beauty and prolonging life. It is said that Linxia girl's skin is delicate, beautiful and colorful, and her face is watery, which is related to snack mutton. Hand-grabbed mutton generally has bones, which are mostly cut into strips or blocks, so it is named after grasping food directly with hands. Most sheep used to make mutton by hand choose Jie sheep, and Jie sheep is the best. There are many ways to eat mutton by hand, each with its own characteristics and different flavors. The most famous are Dongxiang finger food, barreled meat, preserved mutton and so on. When entertaining distinguished guests, we usually use a bunch of hands to grasp them. If serving on a single dish, we usually use lamb ribs. Hand-grabbed meat is delicious, fresh and tender in color, moderate in fiber fat content, tasteless, fat but not greasy, and extremely delicious. It is a pollution-free green food. It is said that people who are exhausted after a long illness will suddenly regain their vitality after eating "Dongxiang Hand-grabbed Rice".

That is, people born in the southeast coast who can't get used to mutton will never forget the delicious food once they eat Linxia finger food.

Second, equal partners.

Eating "Pinggang" is the custom of friends and relatives gathering for dinner in Linxia. In the slack season or rainy and snowy days, friends with similar temperament get together, * * * equally pay for sheep, and choose a master to do it in his house. Generally, the owner does not pay for sheep, but is responsible for processing, but there is still a portion of meat. After the meat is cooked, the owner will move it to all the participants and divide the whole sheep into equal parts according to the head. When cutting, cut each part into pieces, one for each person. Each piece has seven parts: front piece, back piece, rib, chest fork, back piece, neck and tail, and then everyone can eat his own piece. If you can't finish it, you can take it away. After eating the meat, pull the noodle soup and have dinner together. From slaughtering sheep, making, sharing meat and eating noodles, it was all shrouded in a warm atmosphere, talking and laughing, joking with each other, and it was very lively. Of course, "scraping bowls", "eating melon seeds" and "eating hair" are inevitable, and finally the head and feet fall into the water. Eating equal partners is a typical portrayal of Dongxiang people's collective spirit of equality, mutual assistance, unity and harmony. Equal partners, equal partners. First of all, equal meat is divided into "portions", no matter rich or poor, it is equal, one person has one portion and the same weight; Secondly, after dividing the money, you can pay cash or put an "August account", that is, when the grain harvest is good, you can use grain to pay for the meat. Dongxiang people's generous and open-minded character is fully reflected in the customs and habits of eating equal partners. (
