How to cut the donkey meat before it is tender?

As the old saying goes, "Dragon meat in the sky, donkey meat on the ground." Regarding the delicacy of donkey meat, since ancient times, people who love to eat have never lacked praise for donkey meat.

The spiced donkey meat in Luohe, Henan Province is very famous. The processing technology of spiced donkey meat has a long history. Since the late Qing Dynasty, there has been a processing technology of pickled donkey meat here, which has been passed down and developed to this day. I was lucky enough to taste spiced donkey meat once, probably because my taste is weak. I feel that donkey meat is a little salty, but it is full of flavor after being marinated with spiced meat such as aniseed, fennel and clove.

Qingzhou, Shandong Province is also rich in donkey meat, and the production technology of Jiahe donkey meat here has a history of hundreds of years. It is said that the donkey meat here is delicious because the Qinglong River in Jiahe is good. The local people wash donkey meat here for many years, and the water for stewing donkey meat is probably taken from here, so the taste of donkey meat cooked here is different from other places.

Bacon donkey is very popular in Shaanxi, and the best Guanzhong donkey is selected for it. Cut the donkey meat into small pieces, put it in an urn in layers and marinate it with salt. After curing, cook it, then take it out and dry it until a thin layer of hoarfrost is produced on the surface of the meat, which proves that the cured donkey meat is made successfully and the color is bright red. Moreover, the local people made preserved Shaanxi donkey meat with unique flavor according to the traditional method of making preserved donkey meat.

In addition to the donkey meat above, there are many classic methods of donkey meat. In many places in the north, there are donkey meat shops everywhere. Most of these donkey meat shops sell roast donkey meat, three pieces of donkey meat and jiaozi donkey meat. When I was young, I always wondered, why can't the south eat donkey meat? Now we know that the country expressly stipulates that fresh meat such as donkeys, horses and mules cannot be sold directly, and cooked donkey meat will taste much worse if it is transported from the north to the south. So, if you have a yearning for donkey meat, go to the donkey meat shop in the north and have a taste for yourself.
