crispy gourd chicken

source:           editor:张悦

唐代就被誉为天下第一味的葫芦鸡在如今依然是一道经典且热门的陕菜,一提起来可谓是无人不知。

the gourd chicken, or hu lu ji in chinese, known as the "no. 1 taste" early back to the tang dynasty, is still a classic and popular shaanxi dish that everyone knows it.

那为什么这种鸡得名葫芦鸡呢?

why is it called the gourd chicken?

这背后有两种说法:一种说葫芦鸡是“囫囵鸡”(一整只鸡)的转音;另一种是因为这鸡经过烹饪,形似葫芦。或许这两种说法都对,因为吃的确实是这样一整只形似葫芦的鸡。

there are two versions of story behind the name. one says that the name hu lu ji derives from the chinese hu lun ji, meaning a whole chicken. another version goes that the chicken looks like a gourd after being cooked. perhaps both statements are correct, because it is indeed such a whole gourd-shaped chicken.  

葫芦鸡的每道工序都很严格,鸡、料、汤的品质缺一不可。鸡呢用的是本地两斤左右的倭倭鸡,处理后浸入由多种香料熬成的优质高汤中蒸制。蒸完后放在油锅中炸透后立即捞出,再用沸腾的油一遍遍地浇淋鸡身,直到鸡皮金黄起酥。

the gourd chicken follows strict production process. the chicken is local wowo chicken which is about two catties. after processing, immerse it in a quality broth made of various spices and then steam it. after that, put it in a frying pan and then remove it immediately.  the last process is pouring the chicken body over and over again with boiling oil until the chicken skin is golden and crisp.

葫芦鸡最大的特点就是皮酥肉嫩,用筷子轻轻一划拉鸡肉和骨头就分离了,蘸着辣椒面或者孜然吃,味道更让人回味不止(小编都要流口水了)。

here comes the most important quality of the gourd chicken. the skin is crispy and the meat is so tender that meat is separated from the bone with a stroke. dip it with chili or cumin, and it will taste better.  

那么问题来了,

去哪儿才能吃到这么好吃的葫芦鸡呢?

小编这里给大家推荐几个地方↓
