Maliandao in Beijing is a huge tea distribution center (or will be relieved), and the Nanqiao Temple in Chongqing has a similar function. The Mingyu Hengkang community in this area was built in the 90s, this kind of old buildings are more common in Chongqing, not as dilapidated as the Soviet-style mansions in the north of Chengdu, but the atmosphere of life is equally strong. Chengdu 82 mailbox dried sea pepper copy hands firmly occupy the first place in the list of well-known small shop recommendations, Chongqing Mingyu Hengkang has the same name store to produce the same dishes, opened less than 1 year to become famous, to a group of gourmets.
Chongqing's "Dried Sea Pepper Copying" Museum was founded by Dong Xiaoping around 2017. The owner has been in the noodle business for more than 30 years in Gangbei Chengyuanmen, and is best at making spicy ingredients. His skills are so great that he instructs intuition on details that are difficult to quantify and cannot be imitated by others.
These advantages are evident in spicy mixes and toppings. People in the spicy area generally believe that the "spicy and fragrant" flavor is the one that is excellent, and the small shop rarely disappoints, even if you are sensitive to spicy, diners can easily taste the special and rich aroma of sea pepper. The sea pepper mixture contributes the most to the flavor, and its production process is very different from that of ordinary handicraft shops, the chef uses a simmer to stir-fry slowly, and the aldehydes and alcohols will not be excessively volatile, so the fragrance is full. With deep experience in the catering industry, the store can often rely on intuition to quickly screen out fragrant but not spicy dried sea peppers, which is more difficult to replicate.
Chongqing dried sea pepper copying hand is suspected of imitation of the capital store, its dishes are almost identical, the same free "secret side dishes", even the "self-selected seats, handwritten orders" scheme is exactly the same as the Chengdu store, the store even claims to be "Chengdu headquarters relatives run a branch", but Chongqing's dried sea pepper has nothing to do with the Chengdu store. This kind of copycat behavior is often not appreciated in public opinion, but humanistic stories do not affect the score of this list, and the biggest shortcoming of Chongqing's dried sea pepper is the dish itself.
According to the difference in fillings, the store can be divided into two categories: traditional pork, shrimp and crab roe, and then with different soups and seasonings, a total of 21 types. The highest-end style uses chicken soup with fresh shrimp and crab roe, and there are ingredients such as bamboo sunflower, matsutake mushroom, and cordyceps in the soup, which has a high score in the Chengdu list, but Chongqing's dried sea pepper hand-taking shop is not, its soup body umami floats on the surface, the freshness of the crab roe is not good, the color is dark, there is no sense of bursting, and the flavor is obviously not as good as Chengdu.
The traditional pork stuffing has performed well, and many diners have a high evaluation of its ingredients, generally believing that the meat has obvious aroma and solid taste. Considering the ingredients, if you go to the store, it is best to choose the pork stuffing with sea pepper.
In addition to the sea pepper, it is also sprinkled with sesame seeds, diced green onions, and poured hot oil toppings to make various flavors bloom, this process is similar to the preparation method of oil splashed noodles, bringing a strong and slightly spicy taste, the store does not pay attention to the plating, but its appearance is extremely attractive, it is completely worth taking pictures to show, it is really valuable. In addition, cold salad and dried sea pepper are also sea pepper and pork types, so you may wish to pay attention to it.
The popularity of the small shop is slight, although the popularity is strong, but it has not reached the point where it is difficult to find, even if it does not take too long to wait for a table, you can visit according to the normal dining time.
