When it comes to Kaifeng's delicious food, the first thing that comes to mind is Kaifeng dishes, but what are Kaifeng dishes? Of course you don't know. Besides Kaifeng food, are there any delicious snacks to eat? Let me, a foodie, answer your question.
Let's start with Kaifeng cuisine: Kaifeng, as the capital of seven dynasties and the Northern Song Dynasty, has a long history of food culture. Kaifeng is the birthplace of Henan cuisine and Kaifeng cuisine is the representative of Henan cuisine. It is characterized by harmonious five flavors, moderate quality and taste, wide selection of materials, exquisite knife work, good at making soup and dozens of cooking techniques. Picking vegetables is the most distinctive, especially good at soaking hair.
The first thing Kaifeng has to mention is soup packets. There are soup packets or soup packets shops in the streets and alleys of Kaifeng. So which is better? Haha, I'm not sure which is the best. I can only recommend a few that suit my taste. I think it's not bad, and I hope it will suit everyone's taste.
Kaifeng snacks are very famous. At night, there are night markets at the intersections of many streets and lanes. It is suggested that the landlord go to Xisi Square Night Market or Gulou Night Market. The former has complete varieties and moderate prices, while the latter is well-known but expensive, which is suspected of deceiving customers. In addition, Nanmen Night Market, Yishan Night Market and Laodong Road Night Market are also very good, and the landlord can choose freely. Suggested varieties: steamed buns, peanut cakes, braised fish, Huimian Noodles, Lamian Noodles, almond tea, fried bean jelly, Xingshengde peanuts, cockfighting, etc. In the morning, you can drink beef, sheep and donkey broth, all of which are delicious.
The first floor of Kaifeng
On the first floor of Kaifeng, the first thing to do is to fill soup packets. The soup is good and the skin is thin.
The most famous soup-filling bag is 25 a cage, and there is also a carp roast noodle 58. These two feelings are the signs of the store.
Huangjia steamed bun
Huangjia steamed stuffed bun tastes thin and rich in soup, and there is also a lot of sesame oil in it. Price 18 a cage
Royal steamed stuffed bun, it feels like meat, but its vegetarian stuffing is really delicious. Leek, eggs, shrimp, vermicelli, fungus and carrots, seemingly simple ingredients, taste unusual, feel juicy, but not greasy, just like drinking soup.
And what I recommend is: mashed sweet potatoes, although it doesn't look good, but it tastes really good, which is great for people like me who like desserts.
Sweet potato paste has a high sugar content, which makes it feel delicate in your mouth, but it will not be greasy or soft.
The following are meat eaters' favorite foods: mutton kang steamed stuffed bun, which is a unique halal food in Kaifeng and the most popular food in Kaifeng night market. This is the representative of food. It's really not too late to taste such authentic things after Kaifeng. There are only chopped Chinese cabbage and fresh mutton in the mutton kang bun, plus some peppers and sheep oil, which are sandwiched in a cake and delicious.
Cockfighting is also a famous dish in Kaifeng. I went to Pang Ji Yishengzhai, and Kaifeng people knew it best. There is more than one company called Yishengzhai, which is said to have been bought and sold by ancestors. Ma Yuxing's situation is similar. As for which direct branch to join, which direct branch does not need to be too clear. Just eat with the locals. Don't hide from some urban tourism.
The taste has the shadow of salted duck and boiled chicken, which is very useful and I am more willing to accept it.
Tofu fried dumpling: a strange and familiar name, which has a chemical reaction together. It looks like pot stickers, but it's actually tofu, which is novel in collocation. "Potted flower tofu" is a famous dish in Minle Pavilion restaurant in Kaifeng, which was widely known in Kaifeng as early as 1930s. Over the past decades, with the continuous improvement of chefs, it has evolved from a conventional "pot paste" to a half-cooked half-cooked one dipped in egg white paste. The finished product is light yellow and crisp, and melts in the mouth. Eating with pepper and salt has a unique flavor and is especially suitable for the elderly.
