The mysterious folk custom of Sangzhi

1. Ethnic flavor

There are also slag, three pots, Tujia bacon, thousand-layer tofu, rock bar fish, bean paste, wild Ge Fen and so on

Tujia bacon

Tujia people in western Hunan have a special hobby for pickled products. Every winter solstice, every household will kill Nian pig and make bacon. Fresh pork, pig's head and pig's foot are all used to make bacon. Tujia bacon practice, first cut the fresh meat into strips of five or six pounds, then put it in a vat (never wash it with water), sprinkle with salt, pour some wine, add some spices such as star anise, pepper and pepper, and finally press it with a big stone for pickling. In order to make the meat taste even, turn the noodles every one or two days. After a week, the salty taste and fragrance have penetrated into the meat, and then the meat is taken out for smoking.

In the middle of the farmhouse hall in the Tujia mountainous area of western Hunan, every family has a big fire pond that never goes out in winter. There are big stumps or stumps burning in the fireplace at any time. There is a lifting hook on the fireplace, and a cauldron or kettle is hung for cooking and boiling water. The cured dried meat strips are hung on the high roof beam above the fire pit, and naturally smoked with the smoke rising from the fire pit. Because the smoking process is long, slow and full, and many burning stumps or stumps have special fragrance, the smoked bacon is really delicious!

(Note: There are generally two kinds of bacon sold in Zhangjiajie market: one is smoked by a special smoking shop, and the other is bacon made by farmers. The above two kinds of bacon, the former is beautifully packaged, and the latter is unpacked, but the taste is particularly fragrant. )

Sanxiaguo

Tujia's "three pots" have a unique flavor. According to legend, during the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court recruited Tusi soldiers from Xiangxi and Hubei to fight against the Japanese aggressors, just in time for the end of the year. In order not to miss the military plane, the toast king ordered the Chinese New Year one day earlier, so bacon, tofu and bamboo baskets were cooked in one pot, which was called "combined dishes" and later evolved into "three pots". Dear passengers, when you arrive in Zhangjiajie, I suggest you try the "three-mouth pot" in a small restaurant, which will never be forgotten.

Sangzhiyan dried tofu

Mulberry salted dried bean curd is a famous local specialty.
