Beijing Cuisine - tanghulu-RITAMA

Tanghulu


  • Description
Tanghulu, also called bingtanghulu, is a traditional Chinese snack of candied fruit. It is commonly available in many Chinese cities. It consists of candied fruits on bamboo skewers that are approximately 20cm long. This snack can be found widely along the Beijing snack street Wangfujing and also there are street vendors who travel from place to place selling it.
The two common names literally means "sugar bottle gourd" and "rock sugar bottle gourd" respectively. The "sugar" or "rock sugar" regers to the sugar coating, while the "bottle gourd" refers to the slight resemblance of the snack to the shape of that fruit. 

  • Details
Tanghulu typically has a hardened sugar coating that comes from dipping the skewer in sugar syrup, but versions can also be found with a second chocolate coating, or seasame sprinkles. Traditionally, the fruit used has been Chinese hawthorn, but in recent times vendors have also used various other fruits, such as cherry tomatosm, mandarin oranges, strawberries, blueberries, pineapples, kiwifruit, bananas, or grapes.

Chinese cuisine - zha jiang noodles - RITAMA

Zha Jiang Noodles


  • Description

Zha jiang noodles(Literally "fried sauce noodles") is a Chinese dish consisting of thick wheat noodles topped with a mixture of ground pork stir-fried with zhajiang, which is salty fermented soybean paste. It is said that it tastes better with hand pulled noodles.
In Beijing cuisine, yellow soybean paste is used, while in Tianjin and other parts of China tianmianjiang, hoisin sauce, or broad (fava) bean sauce may be used in place of the yellow soybean paste. Soy sauce can also be used instead of the soybean paste. Simplified Chinese also means fried sauce, as the sauce itself is fried, although this homonym does not carry over into the Tratitional Chinese term which describes the actual bean paste. 


  • Details

Here is a rough sketch of making zhajiang noodles.

  1. Dice scallions and, if desired, garlic;
  2. Stir-fry the spring onions and garlic until they are slightly brown;
  3. Add meat to the wok. Stir fry the ground meat until it is slightly brown;
  4. Add the yellow soybean sauce, sweet bean sauce, broad bean paste, soy sauce or hoisin sauce to the mixture with some water and simmer;
  5. Serve this meat sauce over noodles. If desired, add condiments like shredded carrots, shredded cucumbers, bean sprouts, cilantro, scrambled eggs, shredded Chinese cabbage, fresh soybeans/edamame, vinegar and hot sauce.

Chinese cuisine - peking duck - RITAMA

Peking Duck


                         

  • Description:


Peking duck is a famous duck dish from Beijing that has been prepared since the imperial era, and is now considered a national dish of China. Duck has been roasted in China since the Southern and Northern Dynasties. A variation of toast duck was prepared for the Emperor of China in the Yuan Dynasty. The dish, originally named "Shaoyazi", was mentioned in the Complete Recipes for Dishes and Beverages manual in 1330 by Hu Sihui, an inspector of the imperial kitchen. The Peking Roast Duck that came to be associated with the term was fully developed during the later Ming Dynasty, ans by then, Peking Duck was one of the main dishes on imperial court menus.


  • Details:






The dish is prized for the thin, crisp skin, with authentic versions of the dish serving mostly the skin and little meat, sliced in front of the diners by the cook. Ducks bred specially for the dish are slaughtered after 65 days and seasoned before being roasted in a closed or hung oven. The meat is eaten with pancakes, scallion, and hoisin sauce or sweet bean sauce. Two notable restaurants in Beijing which serve this dish are Quanjude and Bianyifang, two centuries-old establishments which have become household names.

Beijing Cuisine - RITAMA

Beijing Cuisine



  • Description:

Beijing cuisine, also known as Jing cuisine and Mandarin cuisine, is the traditional food of Beijing.As the capital city of China for centuries, its cuisine is influenced by culinary traditions from all over China. Another tradition that influenced Beijing cuisine is the Chinese imperial cuisine that originated from the "Emperor's Kitchen", which referred to the cooking facilities inside the Forbidden City, where thousands of cooks from different parts of China showed their best culinary skills to please the imperial family and officials. Therefore, it is sometimes difficult to determine the actual origin of a dish as the term "Mandarin" is generalised and refers not only to Beijing, but other provinces as well.However, some generalisation of Beijing cuisine can be characterised as follows: Foods that originated in Beijing are often snacks rather than main courses, and they are typically sold by small shops or street vendors.

  • Details:

But as a native Beijing people, I like Beijing food more. I'd therefore recommend three my favourite Beijing food to you:

  1. Peking Duck
  2. Zha Jiang Noodles
  3. Tanghulu

The worse smelling Tofu!!--JINGJU HE



Stinky tofu

Stinky tofu or chòu dòufu is a form of fermented tofu that has a strong odour . It is a snack that is usually sold at night markets or roadside stands or as a side dish in lunch bars rather than in restaurants.
It smells worse than it looks and it actually tastes better than it smells or looks! Stinky tofu is often the culprit when entire sidewalks full of people are choked out as they are engulfed in a thick haze of stench. With enough of the right seasoning (you can see they use a lot), this traditional dish actually ain’t half bad.

  • History

According to folk stories, stinky tofu was invented by a person named Wang Zhi He (王致和) in the Qing dynasty. However the versions of the exact story are quite varied.

  • Different Types of Stinky tofu


Stinky tofu is made and consumed in different ways in various areas of China. For example, the types of dried stinky tofu made in Changsha and Shaoxing are made with different methods, and the resulting flavours are very different. Huo Gong Dian (a stinky tofu shop in Changsha) makes the tofu with yellow soybeans marinated in seasoning. The stinky tofu sold in Tianjin is mostly made in the Nanjing style, with a mild aroma. In Shanghai, stinky tofu is fried and sold on streets, typically served with a spicy or sweet sauce. It is also served as a condiment to Congee often as a part of a regular breakfast meal. In Chongqing, stinky tofu on the streets is usually fried and dipped in a mixture of, typically, coriander (cilantro) leaves, scallions, chili powder, Sichuan pepper and oil. Stinky tofu is also sometimes dipped in Sichuan spicy hot pots.

Buddha Jumps Over the Wall---JINGJU HE


Buddha Jumps Over the Wall


Buddha Jumps Over the Wall is a famous Fujianese dish most often served at lavish banquets. Preparing the dish is difficult and time-consuming, for it brings together many different ingredients.

The earliest mention of the phrase “Buddha Jumps over the Wall” appears in a book from the Song dynasty (960-1279). Stories abound as to the origin of the dish’s colorful name. According to one version, the fragrant smell of the dish was so powerful that it induced a Buddhist monk to climb over the monastery wall to get a taste of it. Another version says that a monk prepared the dish one day, adding many nonvegetarian ingredients to his stew, and that when he was caught eating it he had to leap over his monastery walls to escape. But it is impossible to prove or disprove either of these versions.

The Wonton Soup--JINGJU HE







Wonton Soup (馄饨汤)

As a sort of traditional food in China, wonton  originated in North China. A wonton (also spelled wantan, wanton, or wuntun in transcription from Cantonese; Mandarin: húntun [xwə̌n.dwə̌n]) is a type of dumpling commonly found in a number of Chinese cuisines。
Wonton has a long history. There existed numerous wonton restaurants in cities in the Tang and Song Dynasties. Wonton was featured by clear soup and delicate stuffing at that time. Its fineness was ever appraised by poets and was hard to achieve by common people. In ancient times, it was a custom in some regions to eat wonton on the midwinter day, which is said to has bearing on a famous doctor — Zhang Zhongjing. He ever stuffed wonton with medicinal materials on the midwinter day to cure villagers who suffered frostbite. Wonton’s function as a medicinal dish was also recorded in the Compendium of Materia Medica.

  • Detail of making the Wrapper

Wontons are made by spreading a square wrapper (a dough skin made of flour, egg, water, and salt)flat in the palm of one's hand, placing a small amount of filling in the center, and sealing the wonton into the desired shape by compressing the wrapper's edges together with the fingers. Adhesion may be improved by moistening the wrapper's inner edges, typically by dipping a fingertip into water and running it across the dry dough to dissolve the extra flour. As part of the sealing process, air is pressed out of the interior to avoid rupturing the wonton from internal pressure when cooked.


  • Ingredients:




















½ pound pork 
1 Tablespoon scallions(chopped green onion), finely chopped
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon salt
1 Tablespoon cooking wine
1 Tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon sesame oil (optional)
1 Tablespoon water
2 packages wonton paper
3 cans (15 ounces each) chicken or other broth (about 6 cups)



  • Procedure:













Mix ground pork , scallions, egg, salt, cooking wine, sugar, sesame oil, and water in a bowl.
Place 1 teaspoon of meat mixture in the center of a wonton skin.
Moisten the edges of wonton skin with water and fold it to form a triangle. Press the edges together to seal.
Fill and fold the rest of the wonton skins.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil to cook the wontons.
In another pot, heat the broth. (Wontons will be cooked first in the boiling water and then added to the broth.)
Add a few wontons at a time to the boiling water, giving them room to float freely. Cook over medium heat 8 to 10 minutes.
Add the cooked wontons to hot broth. Use about 3 dozen wontons for 6 cups of broth.
