What's delicious in winter?

China is a gourmet country, and there are countless cuisines all over the world. I'm from the northeast. Today, I will talk to you about the northern winter food. Tell the truth ~ these foods have influenced many northerners since childhood ~

I'll pull out the list first so that everyone can find it:

Baked sweet potatoes, candied haws, frozen persimmons/frozen pears, fried chestnuts and fried chicken racks, roasted sweet potatoes.

Baked sweet potato is a food I grew up eating. At that time, my dad baked sweet potatoes with coal fire. To tell the truth, you haven't eaten it, and you've experienced it. It's really sweet and has a special baking taste. Now I need to buy baked sweet potatoes in the street, or I can cook them myself in an air fryer, but I always feel a little tasteless.

I occasionally buy one or two sweet potatoes in the street after work. Walking in the cold street, gently peeling off the skin of sweet potatoes and eating hot baked sweet potatoes, don't mention how happy you are ~

Tomatoes on sticks

If there is any delicious specialty in Northeast China, sugar-coated haws definitely rank first. People all over the country know that the famous food in Northeast China is Sugar-Coated Berry. At least eat sugar-coated haws, all of which are hawthorn skewers, chewing crisp rock candy pieces, beautiful ~

Sugar-coated haws are not as monotonous as before. You can see many kinds in the street, such as yam, kiwi, orange, cherry, walnut, banana, jujube and so on. These patterns are naturally more expensive because of the high cost of fruits, but they are still delicious.

Now in winter, street vendors can be seen everywhere in rural areas of Northeast China. In fact, this snack originated from "Beijing", the full name of which is "Old Beijing Sugar Hulu", and later developed to major cities in northern China.

Frozen persimmon/pear

Yes, you are right, it is persimmon jelly, which is a special food in winter in Northeast China.

Persimmon is a kind of nutritious and delicious fruit, but in the northeast, people have innovated its eating method, that is, freezing it by freezing. After the frozen persimmon is eaten in the mouth, the sweet taste is refreshing, really sweet to the bones, and with the cold juice, you can know how delicious it is with your eyes closed.

Frozen persimmons include frozen pears, frozen apples, frozen begonia and so on, all of which are local specialties in Northeast China. Winter in the northeast is like a big natural refrigerator. The outdoor temperature is low, and many fruits can be eaten frozen. Under this condition, many delicious things are born, and frozen food is one of them.

Frozen pears are usually frozen with Pak Lei, and the surface of frozen pears is black, that is, black. Maybe many people who haven't eaten dare not say anything (squinting for 2 seconds). But if you bite it open, you will know how cool it is ~

sugar stir-fried chestnut

There is also a special food in the northeast, that is, sugar-fried chestnuts, which is also my favorite. I remember when I was very young, I started eating sugar-fried chestnuts. My mother will take me to the queue to buy. They are warm, sweet, sticky and very delicious.

It's fried in a large iron pot and iron ore with sugar. You can smell the sweet taste from afar, and it is also our seasonal snack in winter.

It's different now. In the big cities in the northeast, there will be many shops selling "sugar-fried chestnuts" on the street. Of course, now they have more categories, not only "sugar-fried chestnuts", but also dried fruits such as "sugar snowballs (sugar-fried hawthorn) or" dried sweet potatoes ".

Fried chicken rack

Have you ever eaten a fried chicken rack? This is a special food sought after by everyone in Northeast China. Some stalls specializing in fried chicken racks line up every day.

Although there are fried chicken racks in the south, the fried chicken racks in the north are really unique, with spicy barbecue and a layer of skin, which is very crisp to eat. Whether eating white wine, fruit wine or beer, watching snowflakes floating outside, drinking small wine and eating fried chicken rack in a warm room are all common scenes in Northeast China.

As a pure northeast person, I often eat these delicious foods. At this point, everyone should be drooling. Welcome to the northeast to taste them ~
