Guangxi is located on the border. In addition to the Zhuang people, there are more than a dozen ethnic minorities. Therefore, Guangxi flavor has a charming ethnic minority style. Although Guangxi cuisine has not entered the "Eight Major Cuisines". But Guangxi's rice noodles should be the best in the world. There are 46 kinds of well-known specialty rice noodles, and they are full of unique charm, enough to make foodies intoxicated.

Guilin Horse Meat Rice Noodles

When I was very young, I read Liang Yusheng's "Guangling Sword" and learned about Guilin Horse Meat Rice Noodles for the first time. Later, when I got older, I read about Bai Chongxi's "Guangling Sword". In the novel "Sister Yuqing" written by his son Bai Xianyong, although Brother Rong in it is a child, he can eat more than a dozen dishes at a time. I can’t help but yearn for horse meat rice noodles.

It wasn’t until I went to Guilin that I discovered that the dozen or so plates of horse meat rice noodles were long gone. There was only a large bowl served with a few slices of horse meat and horse offal as toppings. This kind of horse meat is said to be delicious. It is a local pony in Guilin. The meat is firm and tender. Sprinkle a few oily peanuts, mix with Guilin hot sauce, and serve with Sanhua wine. It is delicious and delicious!

Nanning Raw Pressed Noodles

The most famous Nanning is Laoyou Noodles, which has a long history. But I think raw pressed powder is more delicious, and of course its price is cheaper than Laoyou powder. A bowl of raw pressed rice noodles is only 10 yuan, which is generally 7-8 yuan in Nanning.

Raw pressed rice noodles, also known as pressed rice noodles and raw pressed rice noodles, are soft, smooth and fragrant, and are famous for their distinctive slightly sour taste, which is what people call the "sour" taste. Some people may not be used to this smell. I had a hard time swallowing it when I first ate it, but then I got used to it. Occasionally I ate raw rice noodles that didn’t have the strong rancid smell, but I felt that they were not authentic. Raw pressed rice noodles. Maybe I'm the only one who likes the smell. Friends who are not used to it should try Laoyou Fen when they go to Nanning.

Liuzhou Snail Noodles

I have stayed in Liuzhou for half a month. This city is "the most beautiful landscape among industrial cities, and the strongest industry among landscape cities." Not only does the industrial level rank first in Guangxi, but the city's planning is also very beautiful.

The earliest rumor about snail noodles was that one late night in the 1980s, a small shop ran out of bone broth for cooking noodles, so they boiled the noodles into the snail soup and dealt with the customers hastily. As a result, the customers After eating it, I praised it as delicious. So the shop owner kept it in mind and gradually improved the ingredients, forming today's Internet-famous fusilli powder.

Although the history of snail noodles is not clearly recorded. However, in 2020, with a sales revenue of 11 billion a year, it has to be said that Liuzhou people are smart and hardworking. The smell of snail noodles is just that many people are not used to the smell of sour bamboo shoots. In fact, in the streets and alleys of Liuzhou, you will never smell the smell. After getting used to the taste of sour bamboo shoots, it still tastes unique. It’s unclear when this bowl of snail rice noodles will be able to apply for world-class intangible cultural heritage. It is said that Liuzhou officials are actively preparing for this matter.

Fangchenggang Seafood Noodles

Fangchenggang City is located in Qinzhou Bay, which is one of the world's famous fishing grounds. Everyone who has gone to Fangcheng has eaten seafood. Naturally, the rice noodles in Fangcheng are indispensable for the taste of seafood. You can eat seafood with good quality and low price. Why not?

I had a bowl of seafood rice noodles in Fangchenggang, which I will never forget. There are crabs, shrimps, snail meat, rice intestines, pig offal and mudworms.

The most important ones are the rice intestine head and the mud worm. The rice intestine head is the thicker section of the head of the rice intestine. It has a firmer and more elastic texture and is the best among rice intestines. The mud worm is a seafood similar to sand worms, shaped like an earthworm and packed with protein. The content is high and it lurks in the beach, requiring experienced seafarers to dig it out.

Qinzhou is also a coastal city, so it is naturally famous for its seafood. But Qinzhou’s rice noodles are most famous for their pig’s trotters noodles. As the saying goes: Qinzhou pig's feet powder makes the gods roll. This dish is Qinzhou’s signature delicacy.

Qinzhou pig trotters noodles like to use local fine rice noodles. Boil the river noodles in clear soup for 10 seconds, take it out and put it into a bowl, add the clear soup, and then scoop out a large piece of pig's feet to cover the noodles. , pour a spoonful of pig trotter marinated soup. A bowl of Qinzhou pig's trotters noodle soup is slightly yellow in color, the rice noodles are soft and waxy, and the pig's trotters are bright in color, twisty, fat but not greasy, crisp but not hard. Pig's feet are rich in collagen, which can beautify and nourish the skin, and are deeply loved by women. People who are not fond of meat can enjoy a bowl of pig's trotters noodles and a large piece of pig's trotters to satisfy their craving.

Beihai Rolled Noodles

Beihai also has seafood noodles, but I think the most distinctive one is Beihai’s rolled noodles. There are many overseas Chinese living in Vietnam in Beihai. Therefore, the roll noodles here have many characteristics of Indochina, especially the Qiaogang roll noodles here. The Qiaogang roll noodles have a thin skin and good toughness. The filling is usually pork martini, and the taste is also bland. Generally, it is not served with soup, and more light rice vinegar is added. , lettuce, mint, sour lemon flavoring, very Southeast Asian characteristics.

There are many types of rolled noodles in Beihai, including Laojie rolled noodles, Nankang Ye Brothers rolled noodles, Qiaogang rolled noodles, Hepu sprout rolled noodles and so on. The dough of the rolled noodles is very thin, even so thin that it is a little transparent, and the fillings of this kind of rolled noodles are very rich and abundant. You can vaguely see the rich and full ingredients inside through the thin noodles!

Wuzhou Rice Noodles

Before I have been to Wuzhou, I only know that the Guiling paste here is quite famous. After going there, I found that the rice noodles here are also good. It is said that the Tongxin Village rice noodles here are made with well water and ground with stone mills. Wuzhou's beef brisket noodles have been rated as one of the top 10 rice noodle production standards by the Guangxi Cuisine Association. The rice noodle soup is made from pork bones, beef bones, ginger, spice packets, etc. The rice noodles have a thin, white, transparent and refreshing texture.

The rice noodles used are flat and wide, with an appearance like river noodles.

The authentic Donglong sour rice noodles must be paired with the unique secret seasoning of the Donglong region. It tastes sour, sweet, delicious and fragrant, which is far different from the flavor of noodles in other regions.

Yulin Raw Rice Noodles

Actually, I wanted to introduce dog meat noodles, but I was worried that the article would not pass the review. All I have to say is that the raw materials in Yulin are so powdered. After all, this raw material powder has a long history and was very famous before liberation.

As the name suggests, raw rice noodles are rice noodles cooked with raw ingredients. Common raw ingredients used in traditional raw rice noodles include pork slices, fish fillets, pork liver, and pork rice noodles. These all need to be marinated separately with seasonings in advance. The essential one is rice wine. The rice wine here is white and translucent. It is not as pure as the Sanhua rice wine in Guilin, and the degree is not as high as that, but it is transparent. It has a pure rice aroma and a sweet taste. Use it to remove the fishy smell of meat and eliminate the need to use sugar to enhance the freshness.

Cooking a bowl of raw flour requires many preparation steps and ingredients in advance. Pork bone soup, various raw ingredients, and side dishes are essential.

It is precisely because of such complicated production that Yulin raw material powder is rich in fragrance, delicious in soup, moderately salty and very delicious.

Baise Roast Duck Noodles
