Introduction: Southerners love to eat northern rice, while northerners love to eat southern rice. Netizens: Is there good rice in the south?
As the saying goes, one place is the soil and soil to nourish the other people. Due to regional differences, there are also obvious differences in diet among people in different regions. Nowadays, the most commonly used general terms we distinguish between regions are the South and the North. Affected by the climate, the south has good weather and relatively humid year by year. Coupled with some dietary differences among the locals, it forms a significant difference from the drought in the north.
Even the rice we usually eat is affected by the north and south regions, each with its own characteristics. After understanding, the editor has roughly understood the main characteristics of rice from the north and south, as well as the various ways to eat rice that people from different regions prefer, which will surely open your eyes.
Start with the south. Due to factors such as climate, there is sufficient rainfall in the south. In terms of varieties, it is mainly indica rice, and the biggest feature of this species is that it has a very rich starch content. This also limits the way to eat indica rice. Because it has a hard taste, it is not suitable for ordinary dry rice.
So in order to adapt to the characteristics of this rice, for southerners, the most common food is to cook porridge. Therefore, southerners mainly focus on porridge, and common porridges are also diverse. The most representative one is the common skin egg lean meat porridge we usually use. Pay attention to these points and you can also make porridge comparable to a porridge house.
The first point we need to pay attention to is the rice washing process. This part seems simple, but it is very knowledgeable. This is because the grease of the rice itself is the key to whether the rice porridge can be fresh, fragrant, and soft in the later stages, so just wash it gently.
Second point, after washing, we put the lean meat strips and the peeled eggs in water. The key to whether a porridge can be fresh is sesame oil. Many people do not like to add sesame oil when making porridge. The main function of sesame oil is to keep the porridge fresh. Note that these two points plus low heat and boil them slowly, the porridge you cook will definitely not be bad.
After talking about the south, let’s talk about the north again. In the north, due to the arid climate, rice is mainly based on japonica rice. It is exactly the opposite of the south. The starch in this rice is very low, which creates a soft and glutinous texture, which shows that this rice is very suitable for the rice we usually eat.
Because the taste of japonica rice is very soft and glutinous and very full, the rice is also very wide-ranging. It can not only be used to make various fried rice, but even the sushi and other delicacies we usually see, this rice is fully qualified. Do you know the key to making a good sushi? Why do other people make sushi so delicious, but it is not satisfactory when it comes to making it yourself?
The reason is to master the state of rice. As we all know, the rice used for sushi is relatively soft and glutinous, so when we make sushi rice, we should choose the japonica rice produced in the north. Maybe you are not as good as the rice variety. After talking about the characteristics of the north and south rice, the editor will introduce to you a few popular rice that have been recently. They each have their own characteristics, and you can choose them according to your preferences.
The first "Yunnan Zhabian Rice"
Yunnan Zhabian Rice has the title of Yunnan's first meter. With the blessing of the American reputation, this rice quickly stood out in the rice circle with its own advantages. We all know that the most feared thing about steaming rice is the rice. Because when it comes to a rice, steaming will cause the cooked rice to become inactive. However, if it is not steamed properly, a small part of the rice cannot be eaten. Therefore, the difference between the quality of a rice depends on whether this rice is mixed with or not.
In terms of taste, Yunnan Zhabian rice is more fragrant, soft and glutinous, and its fragrance not only smells fragrant, but also tastes more fragrant. And the rice grains are full and crystal clear. It makes people feel very appetizing after watching it. If you cook this rice at home, it is no exaggeration to say that you can smell the aroma of rice in just a few miles.
The second "Jiangxi Selenium General Selenium-rich Rice"
This high-quality rice from Yichun, Jiangxi is already ahead of the same type of rice in terms of growth environment. It is understood that this rice mainly uses mountain spring irrigation, which also completely integrates the trace elements and minerals in the mountain spring with the rice to combine taste and nutrition. In terms of taste, the rice itself is very sweet and fragrant. The steamed rice is not only soft, glutinous and delicious, but also has clear grains of rice. Even if eaten dry, you can feel the sweetness of rice. This sweetness is the most original taste of rice itself and a natural fragrance.
The third "Jiangxi Wannian Gongji"
It is not difficult to see from the name that the quality of this rice is also very excellent. It was previously used as Gongji . It is also produced in the humid climate of Jiangxi Province, and this rice is also very special in taste. Unlike Jiangxi Selenium-rich rice, this rice has a tougher taste and is very saturated. And the particles are full, making people very chewy. Even at the entrance, you can clearly feel every grain of rice in your stomach. Because of its tough texture, I would like to call it a blessing for those who love to eat hard rice.
The fourth "Hunan Dongting Lake Rice"
It is understood that this Dongting Lake Rice, a famous scenic spot in my country, has very shiny rice grains and a very rich fragrance. Due to the environmental influence of the region, rice contains rich dry matter elements, which makes the nutritional value of rice more abundant. In terms of taste, the rice grains of this rice are tighter and stickier and very close. In addition, the grease on the surface of the rice grains is also very instructed, which makes this rice soft and has a fresh taste after steaming and cooking. Whenever the rice is ripe, it is also the time when the house is full of fragrance.
After introducing so many varieties of rice, you must have your favorite style in your mind. The quality of a rice directly affects the quality of your mood. After all, no one will refuse the temptation to eat an extra bowl of rice every day.
