I'll take you from Chongdugou Station of Luoluan Expressway, and walk around Luanchuan from east to north to west to south to search for Luanchuan cuisine, so that you can get a deeper understanding of Luanchuan's simple and enthusiastic folk customs from the acquisition of cuisine.
The most local feature: chicken feast
Beicun is 4 kilometers away from Chongdugou Xiazhan, and the Xiadun of Chongdugou Yihe River drifting is also in this village. Convenient transportation and abundant water resources make Beicun a famous rural tourism experience. At this time, the Chinese rose flowers in the northern countryside are in full bloom, like a fairy tale world; The village is surrounded by terraces and orchards, which has become a unique landscape of this village.
This village not only has beautiful scenery, but also has great farmhouse meals, especially the local chicken banquet. The native chicken that can be seen everywhere in Luanchuan belongs to the kind of cute guy who looks for food all over the hillside. It's pure MengMeng. It may not be very fat, but it's really delicious. In Luanchuan countryside, it is easy to eat authentic fried chicken and stewed chicken.
The most ecological: bamboo rice, bamboo skewers
Go south to the "Zhuxiang Water Street" food street in Chongdugou Scenic Area, which is mainly famous snacks and is the largest characteristic food city in western Henan Scenic Area.
With the business philosophy of "tourists first, service first, famous food, excellent production, beautiful environment and pure taste", Bamboo XiangShui Jie welcomes visitors from all directions. You can taste all kinds of delicious snacks, especially bamboo rice, bamboo skewers, crayfish and so on.
Most affectionate: handmade noodles
Out of the Chongdugou Scenic Area, further north is Boyunling Village. As the name implies, "seeing the sun through the clouds" is a mountain. This is a quaint village hidden in the hinterland of Funiu Mountain. The villages are very small, scattered between ravines and ridges at an altitude of 600- 1000 meters. Standing on the mountain and looking from a distance, surrounded by green trees and green hills, the Yi River winds through the village, and the characteristic houses in western Henan are patchwork, which is a beautiful picture of natural landscape.
As the saying goes, "Get on the bus and get off at Jiaozi", you must make a bowl of handmade noodles for the peasant woman to taste. You may not know that these mountains have blocked the villagers' way out, but they can't stop the hard-working and kind heart of the peasant mother.
Mothers have to make dough by hand, roll out a big dough cake over and over again with the longest rolling pin, skillfully cut a huge dough cake into strips with uniform thickness, then pull some leeks, shallots and peppers from the field in front of the house, pick some peppers from the trees next to them along the path, and then take out some freshly laid earth eggs from the chicken coop at home and make a bowl of handmade noodles with crackling firewood. I don't know why, this bowl of noodles is particularly fragrant.
The most ingenious: stove sesame seed cake
Not far from Boyunling is Qiuba Township, but this remote mountain city retains Luanchuan's most primitive ecological nature and pure local culture.
No one expected that there were ten thousand mu of lotus ponds in this deep mountain! Graceful flowers, majestic mountains, combining rigidity with softness, are just right, which also forms the biggest feature of Hà Thu-lotus flowers in the mountains. Today, Hexiang Town has become the most distinctive rural tourism destination in Luanchuan.
The sesame seed cake on the street of the Millennium ancient town in Qiuba Township, Luanchuan has a long history and is a small shop on the street. It looks unremarkable, but it is basically decades old. People who grew up eating roasted sesame seeds in town have a special liking for it.
This baked cake is slow and "stupid", but it embodies a persistent desire to do things seriously. The craftsman skillfully drew some patterns on the bread with a knife, just for the baked cake to be ripe and tender.
The healthiest: trout feast
From Qiuba Township to the west, I came to Gaoshan Fishing Village in Lion Temple Town, Luanchuan. The small houses on the blue tile horse head wall are dotted among the green mountains and green waters, which are quiet and peaceful. It is a good place to taste delicious food, have fun and spend the summer in midsummer.
Rainbow trout in the mountains here is very famous. Because of the low temperature, it is very suitable for the cultivation of cold-water fish. In addition, the natural mountain stream flows through the trout pond, and the growth period of trout is very long, so the meat quality is very good.
The spicy trout slices, fish head tofu soup, Luanchuan tofu and wild vegetables here are all local specialties with good color, flavor and taste. Many gourmets come here to taste fresh trout.
The purest: mutton soup
At the peak of summer tourism, I don't want to join in the fun at the scenic spots. I will have unexpected surprises when I take a walk in Luanchuan countryside. From Shizimiao Town to the southwest, passing through Sanchuan Town, Luanchuan, the mutton soup on the street is also not to be missed. There are many shops in the street, but some don't even have signs, because there is no need for signs at all. Everyone in Sanchuan is a moving sign. Anyone who asks will take you to the store.
Every time I go to dinner, I can always see a lively and happy scene. While chatting, everyone blew hot air and drank soup. This bowl of soup is also a feature of Sanchuan Town. The altitude here is high, the temperature is low all the year round, and a bowl of hot soup is warm, which is very suitable for drinking in spring, summer, autumn and winter.
Most farmers: baked taro+farmers braised vegetables
Go south from Sanchuan Street to Yang Kang Town of Wan Tao Town. There are four natural villages in this town of Yang Kang, where farmers can cook many dishes, among which roasted taro and braised vegetables are the best.
The ingredients are fresh vegetables from the village and local pork. The side dishes change with the season, and the taste changes with the season, but they are all equally delicious.
No matter where you go, maybe "hometown flavor" always haunts your mind. When the farmer's mother in Luanchuan served the bowl of stewed vegetables just out of the pot, in the warm words and rising heat, love overflowed and the taste was more delicious.
The most amorous feelings: one fish and two meals+wild vegetables.
When you leave Wan Tao Town and head east for the county seat, you can stop at Da 'nangou Manchu village in the southwest of the county seat. Walking along the river, you can see the painted wall of Manchu culture in Fengqing Village and the buildings with Manchu characteristics. You can not only eat delicious food, but also experience Manchu culture.
Try the typical food there: eat two fish and all kinds of seasonal wild vegetables. The food these farmers eat is absolutely healthy "local" ingredients, such as wild vegetables, Luanchuan tofu, potatoes, native chicken and eggs. These "earth" ingredients and the taste of "earth" come from mountains, so don't drool!
The most authentic: eight bowls
Junshan Hotel, located next to Junshan Avenue and Junshan Square in Luanchuan, allows every Luanchuan person and tourists from afar to feel the deep nostalgia contained in the eight special bowls in Luanchuan.
Most of the eight traditional bowls in Luanchuan are cooked with green and organic ingredients, such as seasonal vegetables, grains and wild delicacies (fungus, mushrooms, Chinese cabbage, day lily, etc.). ) and raising pigs.
