Fuzhou is one of the cradles of Fujian cuisine. It brings unique ingredients into dishes and pays attention to the original flavor. Eating by sea also makes seafood an important part of Fuzhou cuisine. Someone once used the words "sour and sweet, soup and water" to describe the characteristics of Fuzhou cuisine, but this is far from enough. In fact, Fuzhou cuisine pays great attention to the choice and collocation of ingredients. It likes to use the local red distiller's grains as food, and is good at refreshing with soup, which is sweet and sour. To achieve these points, there are several dishes that must be tasted.

This dish selects more than a dozen kinds of delicacies, puts them into the original soup that has been boiled for 2 to 3 days, and then simmers slowly. The order in which the ingredients are put in is exquisite, otherwise the taste will be a thousand miles worse.
Fuzhou people like to make wine with red yeast, and later they invented cooking with leftover distiller's grains. When ordering cold dishes, please choose red distiller's grains chicken (fish) first. Its color is reddish, it has a fresh bouquet, and the entrance has a slightly sweet and sour aftertaste, which has a very special taste. As for the representative of sweet and sour taste, just order litchi meat.
There is no litchi in the dish, only pork and water chestnuts are used, but the knife for cutting meat must be exquisite, so that the cut meat can be fried like litchi. Secondly, you can mix seasonings to balance the proportion of sweet and sour. Whether litchi meat is delicious or not is also the basic standard to consider whether Fuzhou restaurants are authentic.
Chicken soup and sea clam can best reflect the delicacy of Fuzhou vegetable soup. You know, sea clams have the reputation of "Xi Shi Tongue". The chicken is steamed first and then stewed. Stewed chicken meatball soup with chicken breast is fresher. The mussels should be crisp, fragrant and crisp when put into the soup.
