Soon the waiter brought the dishes, a large table full of ten dishes, and a plate of marijuana flowers on the 18th Street of Tianjin, and the dog ignored the buns.

Qingyan said, "Waiter, let's introduce all ten dishes." ”

The waiter said: "This first dish is braised oxtail, which is made with oxtail as the main ingredient, and the cooking technique of braised oxtail is mainly braised and the taste is home-cooked." Taste: The color is oily, the meat is juicy, and the flavor is mellow. "Braised oxtail" is a traditional famous dish in Shaanxi, and it was the main meat of Guanzhong people as early as the Zhou Dynasty. Legend has it that after Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, he felt empty on a patrol and walked into a restaurant. Coincidentally, the beef in the store had been sold out on this day, and there was only one oxtail, which the owner stewed in the pot and prepared to eat by himself, so he had to bring it out and offer it to Qin Shi Huang in fear. Who knew that Qin Shi Huang had never eaten such a delicious oxtail, not only did he not blame the shopkeeper, but gave him a heavy reward. This dish has been continuously improved from generation to generation and has been passed down to this day.

Qingyan said: "Introduce the hemp flowers on Tianjin Eighteenth Street, the fried cake with ears and eyes, and the buns from Goubuli, including the origin, why is it called this name?"

Ding Yuefeng said to the waiter: "You go down, I know these three things, I'll introduce them." ”

After the waiter went out, Ding Yuefeng said: "Tianjian Eighteenth Street hemp flower to count Gui Faxiang eighteenth Street twist flower is the most authentic, how is it authentic? Gui Faxiang eighteenth street twist is to meet the requirements of different people for twist flowers, after a long time of repeated trials and development, each twist has a hidden mystery, this mystery is made of sesame, walnuts, melon seeds, osmanthus, orange peel sugar and other raw materials made of crisp strips. First sandwich the puff pastry in the middle, then twist the other noodles into the shape of twist flowers, and then put them in hot peanut oil and fry them slowly over low heat until the twist flowers are completely cooked, and then sprinkle some sweet and delicious small ingredients on the ripe twist flowers, and the famous Chinese stuffed twist flowers can be eaten.

The real name of the shop that operates twist is "Gui Fa Sample", but because the old store is on the 18th Street of Tianjin, people usually only remember the sale of twist for the convenience of buying, so they are used to calling it "Twist on the 18th Street". Later, Tianjin Eighteenth Street was renovated, and Gui Faxiang also moved some locations. At that time, this alley called Eighteenth Street was also an extremely lively place in Tianjin, and the nickname Liu Laoba in order to take advantage of this lively energy to attract business, he sold a small shop and sold twist flowers, named "Gui Faxiang".

Liu Laoba is smart and diligent, and proficient in the technique of frying twist flowers, the noodles are selected from the best fine noodles, and the oil in the human pot is also the best clear oil. He opened the shop early every day, a pot of twist flowers, and the fragrance spread throughout the eighteenth street, Liu Laoba did not have much money, so there was no money to publicize, and the customers who came to the store to buy twist flowers could be said to smell the smell. The people who came to buy twist flowers every day lined up in a long line, and the business was good, and Liu Laoba also opened a small shop for his Gui Faxiang, but the small store was still crowded with people who came to buy twist flowers every day. There are not many people in Tianjin, and no one can eat twist flowers every day, and slowly, people are tired of twist flowers, and the small shops are becoming deserted.

Seeing that the business was in his own hands from prosperity to decline, Liu Laoba began to worry. In Gui Faxiang, there is also a young shopkeeper who runs with Liu Laoba. Once the shopkeeper went out and came home, trying to find a few pieces of dim sum to eat, but the dim sum box was empty, and there were some scum left inside, and there were only these dim sum dregs left in the house except for twist noodles. This shopkeeper has been selling twist flowers with Liu Laoba for so long, and he is already tired of twist flowers, but he can't bear the hunger, so he can't use them to pad his stomach first. So he put the dim sum residue in the noodles and made twist flowers, and found that the twist flowers made by this method were particularly crispy and had a unique taste.

He brought some back for Liu Laoba to taste, and it was really different. Liu Laoba painstakingly developed for his own business, and added a dim sum crisp mixed with a variety of raw materials to the twist flower, and the effect was extraordinary. As we said before, Liu Laoba is an honest businessman, so he makes twist flowers with exquisite materials, specializing in the origin of the most sophisticated raw materials, the twist made is not only delicious, but also can be placed for a long time, will not change the original fragrance and taste.

After repeated research and practice, Liu Laoba finally made the twist that we can eat now, which can be preserved for a long time, crispy and delicious Guifaxiang 18th Street twist. It is precisely because of the advent of this twist that Gui Faxiang's twist is among the ranks of Tianjin's three uniques. ”

Qingyan said: "Sister, what are the three uniques of Tianjin that you are talking about?"

Ding Yuefeng said: "There are three uniques in Tianjin, that is, the hemp flower on the 18th street, the fried cake with the buns and ears and eyes, and the third absolute is the fragrant and crispy fried cake." There are many kinds of Tianjin fried cakes, but the only one that can be called "unique" is this ear and eye fried cake. Ear and eye fried cake has also existed in Tianjin for more than 100 years, and its founder is Liu Wanchun, who is known as "fried cake Liu". Liu Wanchun was originally a trader who made a living by selling fried cakes, but he was honest and hardworking, and knew how to study carefully, and finally achieved a fried cake businessThe fried cakes made by Liu are sweet and soft, mainly because of the affordable price, so he can stand out among many fried cakes.

Fried cake Liu is famous not only because of the kung fu of fried cakes, but also because he has a good insight into the market. When he began to choose a location, he opened the shop next to Yiyi Street, Bamboo Pole Lane and Needle Market Street, and the neighborhood was full of large and small shops, and most of the people who came here to visit the store had their own purposes, some were married to make new clothes, and some were to buy gifts for birthdays, but no matter who it was, they would always buy a few fried cakes, because in the minds of the Chinese, "cake" and "high", asking for the auspicious meaning of step by step, the more people who buy, the business will be on fire. Not far from the fried cake shop, there is an ear and eye alley, according to the habit of people remembering the name of the place to buy things, the people who come to eat the fried cake jokingly call this fried cake "ear eye fried cake". Fried cake Liu wanted to leave a well-known name for his shop, and after the business was good, the store originally called "Liu Ji" was renamed "Zengshengcheng", but the people recognized the fried cake with their ears and eyes, and they had to follow the will of the people. The method of making the filling also follows the traditional process, and selects high-quality vegetable oil to ensure that the taste of each piece of fried cake is crisp but not sticky, and the taste is sweet but not greasy, and it has become a delicacy that Tianjin people are proud to make. ”

Qingyan said: "You said the origin of Tianjin hemp flowers and ear and eye fried cakes, so why don't Tianjin dogs ignore buns, why don't dogs ignore them?"

Ding Yuefeng smiled and said: "Goubuli buns were founded in the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty and are the first of the "Tianjin Three Uniques". The buns that have just come out of the cage are fresh but not greasy, fragrant and delicious. It is precisely because of its deliciousness that Goubuli buns have become one of the must-try snacks for Chinese and foreign tourists when they come to Tianjin. So, why did the famous Goubuli bun come up with such a strange name? There are two folk theories about the origin of the name Goubuli bun.

The first statement. At that time, there was a farming family in the suburbs of Tianjin, who was 40 years old and had a noble son, and named it "Gouzi" for peace. When the dog was 14 years old, he came to Tianjin to learn the craft and worked as a young man in a steamed food shop. Later, the dog was unwilling to send people under the fence, so he set up a bun stall by himself. He invented the process of water filling and semi-dough, and made the people taste soft, fresh and fragrant and not greasy, the appearance of the bun is like a blooming white chrysanthemum, the color, fragrance, taste, and shape are unique, attracting people from ten miles and hundreds of miles to come to eat steamed buns, the business is very prosperous, the dog is busy with business and does not care about talking, people say: "The dog sells steamed buns and ignores people", so for a long time, people call him the dog ignores.

The second statement. A fourteen-year-old child named Gao Guiyou came to Tianjin from his hometown in Yangcun, Wuqing County, and became a young man in Liu's steamed food shop. The shop specializes in assorted steamed food and meat buns, and its customers are mostly boatmen, porters and small traders who come and go to the canal docks. Gao Guiyou was in charge of making steamed buns in the store, because he had a strong personality when he was young, and his parents gave him the nickname "Gou Buli". The buns made by others are delicious and sell quickly, and are praised by people. When he was sixteen or seventeen years old, he used the money he had saved to open a steamed bun shop nearby, and people were used to calling him "Gou Buli", and over time, he called the steamed buns he operated "Gou Buli" buns. ”

Qingyan said: It turned out to be a person's name? I thought it was a dog who ignored it, I knew that Tianjin's Goubuli buns were very famous, and at that time I thought, how delicious can the steamed buns that even the dogs ignore and don't eat, and why do so many people still say that it is a famous food in Tianjin? Now I finally figured it out.
