Guangzhou roasted meat rice VS Chaoshan brine rice, which is the favorite box lunch of Guangzhou people?

Speaking of Guangzhou's food culture, I believe many friends immediately think of all kinds of morning tea snacks or delicious Cantonese cuisine. These are the characteristics of Guangzhou cuisine, but they don't mean that they will be eaten every day in Guangzhou. In the final analysis, to understand the food culture of a region, we have to look at what the daily diet is like here.

So what is the delicious food you eat almost every day in Guangzhou? Besides breakfast in rice rolls, Brother Mao thinks that everyone who works and lives in Guangzhou will often eat a box of rice with rich and convenient ingredients. So today, Brother Mao will take you to learn more about Guangzhou's bento culture!

Lunch box is actually the local name for lunch box in Guangzhou. At first, the box lunch in Guangzhou was mainly Cantonese-style roasted meat, which is also known as roast duck, sliced chicken, barbecued chicken, shredded chicken and roasted meat (far more than what Brother Mao said);

In recent years, with the increase of personnel flow and cultural exchanges between different cities in the province, Chaoshan braised rice has gradually begun to emerge in the box lunch market in Guangzhou, mainly consisting of Chaoshan pig's feet, braised geese and various brines. Up to now, it can be said that the number of stores is not even lost in barbecue shops, and even most of the box restaurants are sold together.

So today, Brother Mao will tell you about Cantonese roasted meat rice and Chaoshan bittern rice.

Usually, Cantonese cuisine gives people a light and original taste, but Cantonese roasted meat is completely different. Cantonese roast meat includes two cooking methods, roast and wax, but now people are used to calling it continuously. The main foods they often eat are barbecued pork, barbecue, roast goose, roast duck, roast suckling pig and squab, all of which are pickled and baked with sauce. They are fast and delicious, and they are loved by old people.

Next, let's take a look at the indispensable role of Cantonese barbecue!

Cantonese roast pork

This can be said to be a classic in Cantonese roast meat! As long as people living in Guangzhou have never eaten barbecued pork, this kind of plum blossom meat marinated with sauce is delicious, soft and juicy, and fragrant, which can be said to be the first choice for most people.

To cook barbecued pork, you must choose plump and suitable plum meat, so that barbecued pork will not taste more fragrant!

roast duck

Many people say that roast duck ranks second, but roast goose disagrees! Haha, although Brother Mao also knows that roast goose is a representative and delicious representative, due to the convenience and cost of purchasing ingredients, most of the box lunches sold on the street are mainly roast duck, and there are many friends who eat roast duck.

A good roast duck tastes crisp and juicy and delicious, especially a roast duck leg.

Fried chicken with soy sauce

Usually, Laoguang is directly called "oil chicken", which is also a very popular roasted meat dish. Cooked with sweet soy sauce, it is sweet and delicious.

Brother Mao's favorite thing is to dip a chicken leg in soy sauce. Sweet soy sauce has penetrated into the fresh chicken leg meat, and the feeling of stuttering is really not too cool!

Crispy barbecue

Barbecue is also very popular. The overlapping taste of crispy skin and tender meat always makes diners feast, and the order rate in the box lunch is also very high.

However, if you eat barbecue alone, it will generally be a little dry. Brother Mao still likes to eat fried chicken with bean paste or other barbecue together, which is refreshing!

Boiled chicken in sauce

How can old Guangzhou people who love chicken eat boiled chicken? A chicken with more d onions and more d ginger! The purest taste of chicken is more delicious under the infiltration of onion and ginger, and the saliva is almost flowing out!

Braised ribs with honey sauce

This is also a very delicious barbecue. The ribs themselves are delicious. Under the infiltration of honey, they are more sweet and delicious.

chicken shred

It is also a classic of chicken box lunch, because the chicken is torn into small pieces, so it is more tender and tasty, and the chicken flavor is easier to dissolve in rice, especially when eating!

The enjoyment of barbecue.

Having said so many kinds of roasted meat dishes, the reason why roasted meat can become the most popular box lunch is not only the delicious taste of each dish, but also the convenience and quickness of roasted meat rice. You can make it yourself in a variety of choices! Double fight, triple fight will do, as long as you like!

Barbecued pork, fried chicken, roast duck!

If you want to eat more, no problem. Roast duck, chicken gizzard, fried chicken with sauce, barbecued pork!

Nothing, if there is not enough to eat, we will each cut a box and take it home to eat slowly!

After eating Cantonese roast meat, let's take a look at Chaoshan brine. In recent years, with the popularity of Chaoshan cuisine in Guangzhou, Chaoshan brine fast food has become more and more popular in Guangzhou, among which pork knuckle rice and braised goose rice are the most popular.

Chaoshan pork knuckle fan

Let's talk about pork knuckle rice first. I dare say that many friends who have just come to Guangzhou are not used to the taste here. When they eat pig's feet for the first time, they are all delicious. I can't help it This Chaoshan braised pork knuckle is really delicious! A delicious pig's trotters restaurant is definitely lined up at noon.

Pig's foot rice is so popular because it tastes so good. Usually people's impression of pig's feet is greasy, but after the practice of Chaoshan brine, pig's feet really taste fragrant but not greasy, and they melt in the mouth, leaving their lips and teeth fragrant!

The essence lies in pig's hoof skin. Under the infiltration of mellow marinade, the collagen in that bite is soft and rich, which is very delicious!

Pork knuckle pinchaoshan bittern

Brother Mao's favorite way to eat is to add pig's feet to the large intestine, Chaoshan meat rolls and brine! Brine large intestine is also the signboard of Chaoshan brine. The large intestine is soft and waxy under the infiltration of brine, and the more you eat, the more fragrant it is. Plus pig's feet, it's so cool.

Moreover, more and more stores now sell Cantonese-style roasted meat and Chaoshan brine together, making it more convenient for diners to choose. Another pig's foot boiled chicken in large intestine is really not delicious!

Chaoshanlu goose fan

After talking about trotters, let's take a look at the red roast goose! In recent years, the popularity of Chaoshan red roast goose in Guangzhou is really very fast. It feels like a moment that red roast goose shops are all over the street and shopping malls. As the most representative dish of Chaoshan brine, braised goose has won the favor of Laoguang because of its delicious and unique taste.

Compared with roast goose, the biggest feature of red roast goose is that it is not so greasy and spicy. The taste of brine permeates the fiber of goose very well, and every bite is delicious.

Besides goose meat, stewed goose gizzard, goose blood, tofu and stewed eggs are all delicious! Especially the braised rice, it tastes delicious!

Of course, Mao Ge thinks that the most delicious foie gras is not bittern, which is different from the fat foie gras in western food. Chaoshan brine foie gras is fresh and tender, and it melts at the entrance. A mouthful of fragrant rice soaked in brine, this working meal is quite satisfying!

Well, it took me so long to know that it was really Brother Mao himself!

In fact, no matter what kind of lunch box is, it is one of the rich and colorful food cultures in Guangzhou, and even lunch box is a fast food for work, which is very enjoyable in Guangzhou!

So in the end, Brother Mao still wants to do a small investigation. Which box of rice do you like best, Cantonese roast meat or Chaoshan brine? Tell Brother Mao when you vote!
