Zhaoxing Dong Village Food

The delicacies of Zhaoxing Dong Village.

Auntie Green Scarf barbecues.
In a small corner of the main street, there was a dark-skinned auntie wearing a green headscarf. He speaks Chinese not very fluently and is not good at chatting. But the smile is very healing, with the simplicity of the Dong people. That kind of simplicity will make you inexplicably moved.
The Dongjia fragrant pork barbecue costs 10 yuan for 6 skewers, but we ordered the 30 yuan one. I also ordered a 10 yuan serving of glutinous rice wrapped in barbecue.

The pork is black pork raised by the Dong people here.
The meat skewers were grilled to a crisp with a little bit of pork skin, and the barbecue sauce sprinkled on them was not complicated. It looked spectacular in the paper bag, but when I put it in my mouth, I was shocked, it was so delicious that I wanted to cry - the chili sprinkled on it was not spicy and was fragrant, and there was no condiment to steal the taste when I put it in my mouth, only the fragrance of pork and a slight fragrance of chili. The taste buds were filled with the original and natural flavor of the ingredients themselves, not gorgeous, but delicious.
A skewer of grilled meat. A glass of rice wine. Bathed in moonlight. The evening breeze is blowing. Under a sky full of stars. Such delicious meat. Life is enough.

Glutinous rice wrapped in barbecue.
I think the green-head scarf aunt is too real.
The steamed glutinous rice, with its fragrant aroma, is spread out on the chopping board while still hot. Some homemade vegetables and meat mixed ingredients are placed on it. Then the roasted fragrant pork is cut into small pieces and placed on the ingredients. The glutinous rice is wrapped and rolled into a ball - it is really a big ball.
Ask Auntie to cut it in half. The aroma of vegetables, meat and glutinous rice instantly captured our appetite as soon as we took a bite.
My sister and I finished eating the glutinous rice wrapped with meat and we were full.
This ten dollar meal is really spectacular. The point is, we really didn’t expect it to be so cheap, yet so delicious that it makes us question life.
Sure enough, the experts are among the people.

The Dongjia restaurant opposite the green headscarf aunt.
The environment is very good.
Random entry. I ordered their signature dish - wild mushroom and chicken hotpot. A plate of Houttuynia cordata. A bottle of their own rice wine.
The chickens in his family are free-range chickens raised by the local Dong people in the mountains.
Ingredients are the soul of fireworks. If what you cook can retain the original flavor of the ingredients, does not change the mainstream direction of a dish, but can add icing on the cake, then you are a true cooking master.
The moment I ate the free-range chicken, my eyes narrowed involuntarily. It’s really nice. The local chicken stewed in clear soup has no extra taste, and the mushrooms are mixed in the soup, making the light chicken soup extremely fresh. The pot contains small mountain ginger that they grow themselves, as well as floating chives.
Not too oily, but just the right amount of delicious flavor.
The meat is tender and soft, different from the chicken you usually eat in the city. They are all rookies. Those raised in the mountains are wild and strong. Those raised in the plains are lazy. Therefore, the difference in meat quality is also very large. The local water and soil nurture the local people, and the local people eat the local water and soil. Different diets, different cultures, and different flavors all exist in the world in their own unique ways. And will fall in love.

Houttuynia cordata is the soul of the Miao and Dong peoples.
I like people very much. Discard the people you don't like. I can't resist the taste.
I'm the type that thieves like. Wash and cut the watercress, add chives, ginger, garlic, pickled chili peppers, salt, vinegar, soy sauce and a little sugar. Mix and serve cold, not too tasty.
After one plate, I still want more.
The Zheergen from Guizhou is so authentic.

I drank a bottle of rice wine with my sister. Celebrating our wonderful weekend. The rice wine is sweet, just like our immense happiness at this moment.

Farmer's house. Recommended by the photographer.
​The proprietress is very lively, has high emotional intelligence and an excellent memory.
The sour soup fish in her house is the soul.
The real sour soup fish is not the sourness of vinegar or sauerkraut.
The sour soup fish in her family is made by mixing the sourness of fermented rice washing water, tomato sauce, and pickled chili peppers together to stew rice field fish.
When all ingredients are handmade. I grow my own vegetables. The fish are raised in our own rice fields. The sauce is made by myself. There won't be any landmines. It will even surprise your taste buds.
A pot of fish in sour soup. A plate of stir-fried Chinese cabbage. A bucket of white rice.
My sister and I couldn't help but eat several more bowls of rice. It was really appetizing and went well with rice. The fish is tender and the sour soup is just the right amount of sour. It is soaked in rice and you can have bowl after bowl of it. We ate too much.

​While strolling.
I saw a tea shop - a cup of tea created for Zhaoxing - Longxun Dong Village, Qingmo Fushan.
​I went there for the fame. I thought, since this tea drink has such a meaningful name, I might as well try it.
When we reached the entrance, we realized that this was another surprising encounter.
It is light, with a strong flavor. The tea aroma carries just a hint of milk flavor, and the neutralized taste has a wonderful sense of fusion, which makes you feel light yet memorable. It is comparable to Xuzhou’s Yunlong tea.
Sitting on the promenade by the river. Listen to the laughter of the stream. Looking at the people coming and going in groups of two or three.
A cup of green foam Fushan. There is an indescribable comfort, so comfortable that it feels like a dream.

Chen Beibei's handmade yogurt.
The price is very reasonable. 9.9 per cup. We want honey yogurt.
The yogurt is thick. Not sweet. Not greasy. Honey neutralizes the slight sourness of yogurt and makes it delicious.
There are a lot of messages posted on the wall.
On a whim, my sister and I each wrote one.

Measure the world, come to Zhaoxing.
I am here. hapiness.
