When it comes to mutton kebabs, many people say that it has played a role in the black soil in Northeast China. How about the northeast kebab? You won't know until you eat it, but everyone who has eaten it doesn't say it's delicious. It is true that anything can be made into barbecue. For dinner, I like to eat roasted sesame seeds, white rice and steamed bread. Vegetarians like to eat roasted corn, roasted leeks and roasted mushrooms, and I like to eat something that is not available in other places. Roasted real eggs and grilled fish can be amazing.

In some northeast kebab shops, in addition to giving kebab ingredients, they will continue to provide wonderful barbecue dipping sauce. This dip looks unremarkable, as detailed as wheat flour, and even the same color as wheat flour, which makes people have to suspect that it is probably just a barbecue dipped in wheat flour.

But after eating the skewers dipped in white crystals, you will find that this kind of "wheat flour" tastes particularly delicious, especially with meat. As long as a little, it can greatly increase people's appetite and smell good. In that case, what are the white crystals in this barbecue shop and why are they so attractive?

In fact, this pure white powder is composed of two parts, one of which is nicknamed ethyl maltol. Although it sounds academic, it is a common dietary additive in our daily life. What can ethyl maltol do? It can enhance the flavor and freshness of braised pork and mask the smell of the meat itself. Therefore, the northeast people call him "cannon powder", which means that when eating sheep in water, a little powder can improve the taste.

In addition to ethyl maltol, the owner of the barbecue shop will continue to add a little chicken essence, which can improve the taste itself. Phosphoric acid separated from kelp gives people a feeling of "fresh fragrance". When phosphoric acid and ethyl maltol are mixed together, of course, the actual effect of flavor multiplication will be achieved, and at the same time, the fishy smell, bitterness and odor of drainage viscera can be suppressed, so the more you eat, the more unforgettable it will be.

Ethyl maltol, although the name has the word "maltose", is not a natural extract. It is a fully synthetic chemical product and must be used in a standardized way. Although it tastes good, add some powder when eating mutton skewers. It tastes good, but you can't eat more. Eating too much ethyl maltol will have an impact on human health, especially on human bones and liver.

In fact, this ingredient can be seen in many places in China. In addition to barbecue stalls, small restaurants, beverage stores and beverage stores may add this ingredient. It is said that "one drop of incense" only needs a few drops to make the whole pot of vegetables more fragrant and delicious, because ethyl maltol is added.

Although it is not scientific and reasonable to talk about damage without metrological verification, it is not good to eat too much ethyl maltol. When eating kebabs, a little bit can make kebabs more and more delicious, but the harm caused by eating too much is irreversible. Having said that, I firmly believe that mutton string lovers in Northeast China can't let go. I can only say that you must control when eating, and don't eat too much.
