Hello everyone, I am Axing Axing is now in Luoyang, Henan When you come to Luoyang, you must try the water banquet There are actually two types of local water banquets One is home-made water banquet Another option is this restaurant behind me It’s Zhenbutong restaurant’s water banquet In fact, the locals eat more home-cooked water banquets If a foreigner chooses they would choose Zhenbutong But if local people invite outsiders to treat them to dinner It will also be arranged here why It’s because this restaurant has so much history It’s hard to get around it if you want to eat water banquet This restaurant has been around since the late Qing Dynasty But this restautant is also quite controversial locally Basically there are two views One is to say Not coming to this Zhenbutong restaurant is equivalent to not visiting Luoyang City What does it mean When you come to Luoyang, you must try the Zhenbutong water banquets Another way to say it is to say the Zhenbutong water banquet is actually not about the taste What you eat is culture What’s so different about this Zhenbutong restaurant? Let’s try it in today’s video Come What you eat here is really cultural Like a small water banquet museum Look this is Wu Zetian There is a big radish in the middle Radish for making peony and bird’s nest There are also various tableware from the past this Dear Prime Minister Treating foreign guests in Zhenbutong Three people are tired enough I don’t know how many years they have been holding the cup These are eight cold dishes, imitation dishes It looks real Blessing, etiquette, strategy, desire, art, politics, Zen, culture It’s just culture The old Luoyang people eat water banquet, which is called eating table traditional name Where did the name of this water banquet come from? Just because every dish here is soupy and watery And the way the food is served is smooth and smooth The previous one and the next one That’s why it’s called water banquet This water banquet also comes in different specifications There are 24 dishes for all seats After listening to these 24 What a big table dish Very rich Divided into eight appetizers four main dishes there are also eight medium dishes there are four ending dishes A total of 24 dishes This is the time for the big banquet especially getting married It must be this full banquet In addition to full banquet, there are also smaller ones For example, there are 16 dishes of eight cold and eight hot dishes There are also six cool and eight hot There are also four cool and eight hot In short, eight hot dishes are indispensable What shall we eat today? We definitely won’t be able to finish all the 24 dishes We have to support the wall in and out This still needs to be packed So today we will eat the middle one six cool and eight hot Have to pack too Okay, let’s eat now are you curious Why eat watermelon first? For such a big banquet, we must eat in order Serve the fruit plate or melon seeds first people chat first Then serve cold dishes and drink wine After drinking, serve hot dishes After finishing the hot dishes, there will be some pasta Let’s eat this process slowly This feast is not for nothing It also has culture and etiquette The most important thing is the seats Look, this is the entrance The door is facing the innermost part This is a highly respected position Elders usually sit here This position is the lowest level Usually they are juniors Because he is responsible for greeting and serving food Remove plates Including toasting and other things My position belongs to the middle level After everyone is seated according to their own seating arrangements they started eating fruit plate and melon seeds You can talk now Hey, Laowang Has your child gone to college? not yet Senior year of high school Does your child have a girlfriend?

Look at this color, it’s white Looks like a strip That’s why it’s called white bar This is white bar That’s why it’s called silver bars Anyway, they call it silver bars But it’s white This is actually the rhizome of the plant Many people mistakenly think it is the rhizome of peanuts Actually not The scientific name of this vegetable is Diling or Screw It’s the root of this vegetable too delicious Super crispy listen to this sound Not only crispy but also very moist The first time I ate this dish, I loved it We no longer pay attention to etiquette when eating Anyway, I’m the only one Eat Delicious The taste is crispy And it has a refreshing fragrance sour, mixed with vinegar This is definitely good with wine Very chewy in the mouth look It always feels crunchy as you chew it tasty This dish is amazing I can say that 90% of your have never eaten it why It’s because this dish is a specialty of Yanshi, Luoyang Only available in Yanshi And how exaggerated is it? Because this vegetable has particularly high requirements on soil In Yanshi, for example, there is one in East Village There is none in the West Village next door That’s it Ninety-five percent of the silver bars on the market are produced in Yanshi A meal is indispensable without legends There is also a legend about this dish Great background It is said that Master Xuanzang brought this vegetable back from India Successfully planted here It is also said that this vegetable was cultivated by the cooking god Yi Yin Qianlong said this at this time And I It seems that nothing happened without Qianlong Just these two legends Try Luoyang’s specialty smoked fish This dish is spicy This smoked fish feels like canned fish Sweet in the mouth The taste is very strong Then a smell of oil This dish is a typical dish to go with drinks A trace of meat texture When it comes to drinking, roast chicken is indispensable Henan’s roast chicken is also a specialty Zhenbutong restaurant’s roast chicken meaty and salty flavor in the mouth This rating is too high This roast chicken is really good Such a delicious cold dish Can’t we have some drinks?

Go away, go away Have some skin jelly listen to me Does it feel like I’m sitting at a table every day?

It made me embarrassed Sending Wu Zetian away Let’s talk about peony and bird’s nest next yellow egg skin This is daylily crab willow This should be ham sausage Egg shreds What is this, it should be ham or something this This is shredded radish This dish has soup Let’s pour it ourselves Originally, the waiter poured it chicken soup pork bone and chicken soup beautiful Who studied this dish? This is not a dish, is it a bonsai? nice This hot soup also has chopped scallion and coriander Get some bird’s nest from the bottom This is called bird’s nest Sour peppery flavor And this acid is that light acid And it’s sour but sweet at the same time delicious Really delicious I didn’t expect it to taste like this Try this bird’s nest Actually it’s a radish But look at this texture A bit like a bird’s nest That’s why it’s called bird’s nest This bully Axing has never eaten bird’s nest, right? We have eaten too It’s just like a bird’s nest Not a thing Just this feeling This dish is very particular it has a history History will talk about Wu Zetian Wu Zetian’s reign In the farmland on the outskirts of Luoyang City Suddenly a big radish appeared How big is it Just that big Just the statue when we entered the door Such a big radish The farmers are very happy So he gave the radish as tribute to Wu Zetian Wu Zetian was also very happy when she saw this radish why Because people in ancient times were superstitious Especially those in power They always thought If during my administration Rare treasures appear among the people It proves that I govern the country well good weather She was very happy when she saw this radish She then ordered the imperial dining room Make this radish into a delicious dish for me This chef is holding this radish Seeing such a big radish How to do this This problem is difficult Because no matter how well it is done, it is still a radish, right? Just want to think about it thinking After three months of thinking The radishes are smelly no After thinking about it for three hours suddenly thought of it he cut the radish into shreds and boiled it in water first After blanching, mix in flour then steam again After steaming, dry it Let it dry before pouring the soup That’s what it became At that time, Wu Zetian ate she think it tastes good said in great shock How can this radish taste like bird’s nest? Even more delicious than bird’s nest From then on, this dish was called better than bird’s nest Also called bird’s nest Why is this dish called peony and bird’s nest now? It’s because of the Prime Minister The Prime Minister came to Zhenbutong entertain foreign guests It was just to look good they made a peony flower shape out of eggs and put it here The Prime Minister saw this dish This dish is quite beautiful Quite unique Peonies can also grow in the dish From then on, the name of this dish was changed called peony and bird’s nest This dish is indeed very particular And suitable for all ages Not spicy or salty Tastes slightly sour In fact, the whole water banquet smells like Mainly pepper and sour flavor This is why locals sometimes joke Just say it with self-mockery Our water banquet in Luoyang is actually hot and spicy soup Try the fried meatballs It is also a famous dish in water banquets Looks like meatballs Actually it is vermicelli Vermicelli minced and fried into balls good Hot and sour flavor Although this dish is vegetarian But it makes you feel like meat dish This is a typical vegetarian and meat dish This dish also has historical legends This is about Qianlong Emperor Qianlong appeared Qianlong once came to the temple to burn incense It’s time for lunch He wants to have a meal in the temple At this time, the abbot asked the official next to him Just tell me what kind of food the emperor likes to eat What is his usual taste? Let’s arrange appropriate meals At this time the official said That would be difficult Because the emperor particularly loved eating lychee meat Lychee meat is a meat dish, how to make it? The abbot had an idea and thought We can make it vegetarian and meat dishes Just did this It tastes a bit like lychee meat Because it’s also fried Qianlong was also very happy after eating Qianlong said Then can I appear again in the next dish? Vegetarian and meat dishes and another dish This is the dish Luoyang sea cucumber Also called fake sea cucumber Why is it called fake sea cucumber? Just because it’s not a real sea cucumber It’s made from sweet potato starch There are also some chopped fungus in it It feels a bit like the thorns of a sea cucumber Don’t you say This really doesn’t taste like seafood at all Isn’t that nonsense? It also has a slightly sour taste But the taste is still pretty good And when he did this There should be some oil mixed in It tastes a little oily You see, although every soup is hot and sour But everyone is different The soups have different levels of sourness and spiciness This one has some ginger flavor in it delicious Across the country, when it comes to soup everyone think Cantonese people are very powerful But when you come to Luoyang, you find Luoyang people are very good at soup How do I say this? Think about it, everyone Who was the best at playing soup in ancient times? Chef God Yi Yin Also called soup god Yi Yin Where is soup god Yiyin from? This is the person here In ancient times, Yi Yin taught everyone to use a cauldron to make soup and mix the five flavors evenly Think about it So there is still a history of drinking soup in Luoyang Raw meatballs This meatball Looks pretty This meatball feels a bit like coming to Fujian It’s not sour, it’s just delicious This dish is called Luoyang Pork Slices, also called Liantang Pork Slices This dish is also very representative Because in the water banquet this is actually the most popular dish eaten locally It’s not this big dish, peony and bird’s nest There are many restaurants that make this dish separately They are famous for making this dish There are slices of meat and green beans And tomatoes and scallion have some soup This is tenderloin slice Looks smooth and tender coated in starch very dense tasty You see, this is also sour But it’s the acidity of this tomato Like drinking tomato soup You can eat all the scallion in it Special small bowl of soup There are pieces of crispy meat here Yuba, tofu and peanuts looks very sticky This dish is derived from the cook’s dish during the Republic of China Actually, it means stew Because it is served in a small bowl, it is called small bowl soup This dish is a special delicacy in the Gushui area of ​​Luoyang It’s like a soup made from simmering vegetables and meat like a stew Belongs to salty flavor This is also small crispy pork There is also some crispy pork here These two little crispy meats are different The crispy pork is so fragrant Eat a round if you feel it’s too salty and sour There is also the children’s favorite honey eight treasures Honey juice on the outside and rice pudding in the middle Finished all the dishes There are also staple foods at this time steamed stuffed bun Steaming hot buns In fact, after the buns are finished, there is another dish It’s also soup What soup? Just egg soup Locally known as rolling egg soup Once this dish is served, it proves that it is really over After eating, get out of here But when you finish eating and get out At this time, there is also culture and skills What do you want to pay attention to? Can’t rise sharply For example, after eating You stand up suddenly Here comes another old man He fell down immediately why In the past, they used to eat water banquet in rural areas All the people sitting on are benches You saw the uncle sitting on the edge When you stand up suddenly, you have to tell him Uncle, go inside Towards the middle Then you stand up Otherwise, the old man will be thrown down Incredible Why is Luoyang water banquet famous? Not only the culture but also the taste Even the appearance All very high It’s really good but I want to say This water banquet is not necessarily handed down from the Tang Dynasty These things are not necessarily from the Tang Dynasty Of course this is my personal opinion Why, let’s give evidence For example, this sweet potato vermicelli And this tomato There’s also chili in it Things like sweet potato, tomato, and chili They only existed in China after the Ming Dynasty Maybe it’s because these delicacies are constantly evolving The water banquet in the past are different from the water banquet now but I want to say This water mat gives people the feeling of It is a yearning of folk cuisine for palace cuisine for palace dish an imitation Because these ingredients are really too ordinary It’s like the emperor’s golden hoe Farmers working in the fields Just feel it This emperor works in a day maybe this hoe is made of gold He will think so For example, Queen Wu Zetian She can’t finish the real bird’s nests so why would she eat shredded radish? She can’t finish the real sea cucumbers so why would she eat fake sea cucumber? Wu Zetian also came just now She saw it too But true, false, false, true You don’t care about this Doesn’t affect anyone, doesn’t hinder everyone Enjoy Luoyang water banquet Taste Luoyang water banquet So when you came to Luoyang You still have to try this water banquet tasty
