Skewers

Sichuan people are very fond of putting all kinds of ingredients into the spice pot to cook, which gives rise to various practices, such as hot pot, string of incense, cold pot of string of incense, bowl chicken, steamed vegetables, spicy tang and so on. In fact, their ingredients are almost the same, there are no less than 100 kinds of poultry meat, animal offal, vegetables, pasta, soy products, etc., which is dazzling, but many people can't tell how they are different. Especially all kinds of strings, enthusiastic netizens have tried their best to explain their differences, and tables, coordinate axes, and flowcharts are all on the battlefield. Generally speaking, the difference between various skewers lies in the way of eating and seasoning, which determines the taste, convenience and dining atmosphere of skewers.

Billing is a major feature of the string, when checking out, the number of signatures is directly signed, generally 5 cents to 1 yuan a string, and there are more trouble-free, with the weight of the last bamboo skewer to settle the account, so that there is no need to count the signature. The price of the skewers determines that each skewer only has a little bit of ingredients, which is not stingy, but to meet the needs of people to spend less money to eat more diverse food, if there are fewer people, it is much more cost-effective than eating hot pot. In addition, foodies often hover between over-mouthing and gaining weight, and a small amount of skewers reduces their anxiety to a certain extent.

Strings of incense

Chuanchuan incense is a skewer version of hot pot, the side dishes of the hot pot are skewered one by one, and the guests eat it by themselves, which can be regarded as the originator of Sichuan skewers. Chuanchuan incense restaurants are generally smaller than chain hot pot restaurants, and heating devices are installed on the dining table to put the bottom of the pot to heat, so the table spacing is quite large, and the dining area is more spacious and comfortable. In terms of taste, the bottom of the pot is no different from the bottom of the hot pot, and the seasonings such as chili noodles, coriander, and peanuts are also richer. But after all, due to the limitation of the form of skewers, ingredients such as brain flowers, duck blood, and shrimp slips in the hot pot restaurant cannot be supplied. Stretching all the way from the Shuinianhe community to the U37 creative factory, the skewers are so dazzling that the smell of butter fills the air at night.

Cold pan skewers

In the matter of eating, there are always people who want to be lazy, so there is a lazy version of the skewers - cold pot skewers, that is, they are cooked in the store and served on the table, you only need to choose the skewers, and you can sit back and wait for the big meal. The skewers cooked in the kitchen have no taste, and they should be served in an iron basin with the bottom of the hot red oil pot, so the cold pot skewers are hot food, but the "pot" is cold. Generally, the store will choose a stainless steel basin with a thick wall and a deep basin, which is conducive to heat preservation, and it is not cold to eat for a long time, and there is no worry about the ingredients becoming firewood after a long time. The big difference between cold pot skewers and skewers is that there are no rich seasonings, such as hot peppers, some better shops will provide sesame oil dishes, and the ingredients on the bamboo skewers will be taken off and passed through the oil dish, and then eaten with chopsticks, the fragrance will be doubled.

Bowl chicken

The name is a bit of a novelty, "bowl" means clay pot, and the outer wall of the bowl depicts a red and yellow porcelain dragon pattern. The bowl is filled with spicy-based condiments, which are skewered after processing, and then soaked in various flavors of condiments after being cooked and cooled. Leshan, Sichuan is the birthplace of bowl chicken, and the earliest ingredients are chicken and various chicken offal, hence the name. Now the ingredients have become richer, and like the skewers of incense and cold pot skewers, there are basically ingredients that can be skewered on bamboo skewers. Bowl chicken is generally divided into three flavors: spicy, peppery, and spiced, and diners can eat it directly without dipping, but now many restaurants have dipping dishes, and each has different methods. Bowl chicken is generally eaten cold, so selling bowl chicken is not too restricted by the environment, a simple branch can be sold by a roadside stall, and it is best to choose the store to eat in winter, which can be heated.
