Chapter 378 Northeast Sesame Sauce Northeast Hot Pot (for subscription)

Buying their sesame sauce will naturally give you a lot of peace of mind.

Li Yuan scooped out two large spoonfuls with a spoon and put them into a bowl prepared aside.

Then gradually add warm water to the sesame paste, take out chopsticks and start stirring continuously. This, also called Jiemajiang, is to add water to prevent the sesame sauce from being too thick and greasy when eating.

"To untie the sesame paste, you must put warm water to untie it, and add water little by little, so as not to water too much and make it thin."

Li Yuan's hand strength is very strong, so the speed of Jiemajiang is much faster.

After unwrapping the sesame paste, put the sugar and salt aside, as well as the chopped garlic, coriander, and green onion.They were placed among the little butterflies on the side.

Then take out the leek flower and fermented bean curd bottles, these are the must-have seasonings for hot pot.

But whether to add these two kinds, if you add more, these are just a matter of personal preference.

After all, everyone's taste is different, so Li Yuan didn't make the decision to mix all the seasonings and serve them up. Instead, he prepared plates for everyone to add by themselves.

However, according to Li Yuan's own taste, he likes to eat sesame paste, fermented bean curd juice and chive flowers together, and the ratio is roughly five to one to one.

Then add some homemade chili oil, a little sugar to enhance freshness, and a small amount of sesame oil.

Take a bite of fat beef... the taste is called a praise!

Sesame paste is actually a nutritious seasoning in Chinese medicine. In addition to a large amount of calcium, it also contains many minerals such as potassium, magnesium, iron, and zinc.

There are also vitamin E, vitamin B1, niacin, plus some protein and monounsaturated fatty acids, and it also contains a powerful antioxidant ingredient, sesamol.

And a pure sesame paste is not only full of flavor, but also a good source of calcium in our diet. According to scientific research, if you can guarantee to eat 30 grams of sesame paste every day, you can supplement about 330 mg of calcium!

It is enough to see the rich minerals in sesame paste.

In fact, the traditional hot pot in Northeast China is very similar to the old BJ hot pot.

It’s just that the hot pot in the Northeast may be due to the regional character, so the way of eating is far less exquisite than the authentic old BJ hot pot.

The hot pot in Northeast China is more like a combination of boiled pot bottom and pickled vegetable hot pot.

Boiling the bottom of the pot is to save trouble. Of course, there were not so many ingredients to boil in that era.Like the most old-fashioned hot pot, some sea food such as golden hook dried shrimps, frozen crabs, and shrimp skins are used as the bottom of the pot.

There are very few varieties to eat, only some mutton, sauerkraut and other foods, just like the sauerkraut pot that Li Yuan ate before, it is the oldest Northeast hot pot.

Just put all these things into the bottom of the pot, and after the pot is opened, everyone can serve it on the table.

And because people from the Northeast have a bold personality, the food they eat is not so refined.The previous hot pot is not an exaggeration in terms of stewed meat.

It's just that the dipping sauce has always been sticking to the end. It has always been a three-piece set of sesame sauce, leek flower, and fermented bean curd.

Naturally, the amount of sesame sauce for dipping depends on the individual. If you like sesame sauce, you can add more.If you like the aroma of meat and vegetables, you should put less.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan couldn't help but said: "We Northeast people actually like to eat hot pot very much, and all the hot pot restaurants are full of sesame sauce dipping sauce."

"Especially in recent years, there are more and more hot pot restaurants on the snack street, and the varieties are becoming more and more abundant."

"Like the old-fashioned copper hot pot at home, there are also Sichuan and Chongqing spicy hot pots, fat beef hot pots with clear soup, Japanese-style small hot pots, and Thai Tom Yum Goong hot pots."

"And the most popular among them is actually this kind of teacher's copper pot, sauerkraut, seafood, fresh mutton, plus a little mutton slices and pork belly, served with a lot of sesame sauce, fermented bean curd, and chive flowers, the taste is not to mention how good it is .”

Studio.

"The hot pot in the northeast seems to be very different from our southern one."

"No, the food is different, and the dipping sauce is also different."

"Our dipping sauce here is made of fat beef juice and seafood sauce, with millet spicy and chili oil. Sesame sauce... I have never tried it before."

"I have eaten hot pot with sesame sauce, but I am not used to it."

"I'm from the south, but I like sesame sauce from the Northeast very much. It tastes very strong and fragrant! It's much more fragrant than fat beef juice."

"Haha, I'm different. As a northerner, I like to eat southern hot pot, especially grouper hot pot. It's my favorite!"

"Grouper hot pot? What kind of hot pot is this? I've never tried it before."

Li Yuan: "The so-called spotted fish hot pot can actually be understood as a side dish in the south. It is similar to the seasoning of the fat beef small hot pot. It makes sense to eat it. Some people like seafood sauce, and some like a little garlic and spicy sauce. Now all kinds of fish are cut into thin slices without thorns, so it is easy to rinse.”

"There is also pork belly and chicken hotpot, which has also become popular in recent years. In this kind of hotpot, chicken and pork belly are first eaten, and then dipped in garlic and ginger sauce."

"This kind of dipping sauce is basically made in secret. There are two plates in total. One is for dipping chicken and the other is for dipping pork belly."

Studio.

"I have never heard of these hot pots."

"Our grouper fish hotpot is so famous, how could I never have heard of it!"

"Yes, the grouper fish hotpot is delicious!"

"I don't know if the grouper fish hot pot is delicious or not, but...the anchor's hot pot today must be delicious!"

"Try our clear soup beef hot pot! The taste is quite good."

The so-called clear soup beef hot pot, in fact, Li Yuan has also tasted it.

This kind of hot pot generally chooses sand tea sauce and seafood sauce as seasonings, but few people eat it with sesame sauce.

Of course, among them, there are also some people with strong tastes who like to eat with chili sauce and mushroom sauce, which is a bit like Chaoshan Fresh Beef Hot Pot.

When it comes to hot pot, Li Yuan does have a certain right to speak.

A hot pot meal, whether it's meat or vegetables, can be eaten in one pot, which is naturally satisfying, plus a bowl of special sesame sauce, the taste...don't mention how delicious it is!
For example, when Li Yuan ate in other places when he was in school, there were various types of hot pot.

What Sichuan and Chongqing hot pot, Sichuan hot pot, the more famous Chengdu hot pot.

There is also Chuan Chuan Xiang, which is modified from hot pot, and the taste is quite good.It's just that the taste of this string of fragrant seasoning is slightly stronger. Every time I go home after eating, my body is full of the smell of hot pot seasoning.

For example, the seasoning of Sichuan-Chongqing hot pot is mainly garlic paste, sesame oil and oyster sauce. It is very simple, and there are no other redundant combinations.

Naturally, when Li Yuan went to eat Sichuan and Chongqing hot pot, he still habitually added sesame sauce to eat.

The twisted head of Sichuan-Chongqing hot pot does not need to be marinated at all, just put it in the bottom of the pot with chopsticks and rinse it for a few seconds.What you eat is the original beef taste.
