In this yellow land of Shaanxi, due to the influence of climate, landform, economy, culture and other reasons. Shaanxi people have formed some unique ways in food, clothing, housing, transportation and entertainment. Outsiders are very curious about this, and they are called "Top Ten Monsters in Shaanxi" after collection.
First of all, noodles are like belts
Guanzhong, commonly known as "eight hundred Li Qinchuan", is rich in wheat. Wheat has become one of the main foods of Guanzhong people. Noodles are the main diet of Guanzhong people. People in Guanzhong eat noodles and like to knead them hard, roll them thick and cut them wide, which is called "biangbiang noodles". After this kind of noodles is cooked, whether it is poured with meat or pepper, it tastes smooth, soft, spicy and strong in a bowl. Delicious and hungry.
Second, a pot helmet is like a pot cover.
Guo kui is a kind of cake made of wheat flour and baked in an iron pot. It is not only the staple food of Shaanxi people, but also the dry food that people carry with them when they go out. There are always different opinions about the origin of Guo Kui. Some people say that Guo Kui was invented by Zhuge Liang after he was young and set fire to Bowangpo to help Guan Yu stabilize his army. Some people say that when Ganling was built in the Tang Dynasty, the construction progress was often delayed and punished because of the excessive number of soldiers and craftsmen serving. So, a soldier anxiously put the dough into his helmet and baked it into a cake in the fire. Because it is made of a helmet, it is called a pot helmet. Guo Kui has been in Shaanxi for thousands of years anyway. Shaanxi people can't even pinch a pot helmet with their hands. They can only rub it with a wooden barbell and all the strength. After being pressed into round cakes, they put them in an iron pot, roast them slowly with wheat straw and simmer them with a small fire. The pot helmet branded in this way is crispy on the outside and fragrant on the inside, and it won't be bad if it is put on for more than ten or eight days. The iron pots in rural Shaanxi are very large, and the diameter is generally more than two feet, so the branded pot helmet is big and thick, much like a pot cover. This is probably also the performance of Shaanxi people's simple personality and tolerance.
Third, pepper is a dish.
Shaanxi is rich in peppers. Pepper in Shaanxi is red, with a long head and spicy taste. Locals commonly call it "pepper" or "red pepper". It is exported to foreign countries and is called "Qin Spicy". It is generally believed that people in Hunan and Sichuan can eat Chili. In fact, people in Shaanxi eat Chili much more delicious than people in Sichuan, Hunan. People in Hunan and Sichuan only use pepper as seasoning, while people in Shaanxi actually eat pepper as a dish. People in Shaanxi eat peppers, first remove the stalks of peppers, dry them with a warm kang, then pound them into powder with a ladle, sieve them, add fine salt, and finally pour more boiling oil, which becomes the famous "oil chili pepper" in the local area. This kind of pepper looks red, smells sweet and tastes spicy. It can be used to mix noodles and eat steamed buns. This pepper is rich in fat, protein and inorganic salts, and has the functions of appetizing, eating and stimulating appetite.
Fourth, paomo is sold in big bowls.
Winter in Shaanxi is long and cold. Therefore, people have to eat some hot rice with soup. So beef and mutton paomo came into being. Gourd head paomo, big meat boiled paomo, sheep blood paomo and other popular types of paomo. This kind of soup dumpling is dry, hot and fragrant, which is very appetizing. So most people can eat a lot. In order to meet the customer's requirements, each paomo museum has chosen a large porcelain bowl made in Yaozhou to hold paomo. As a result, "selling buns in big bowls" came into being.
Fifth, the bowl is difficult to divide.
Shaanxi people like to eat with a white porcelain blue and white bowl with a diameter of about one foot. The locals call it the "old bowl". This kind of old bowl is even bigger than the small one, so it is often difficult to distinguish the bowl from the basin. In Guanzhong rural areas, almost every village has a place where people get together to eat, either under the big locust tree or at the end of the village house. Every time when eating, men will squat together with big old bowls, eat with relish, talk with relish, and even taste different meals. This is the famous "old bowl party". Shaanxi people have a strong labor intensity, work hard and eat a lot. It is enough to go out with old bowls instead of going home, which saves a lot of trouble.
Six, dad put it on his head.
Shaanxi Guanzhong is rich in cotton, and the local countryside has long had the habit of spinning cotton. The local people like to weave this kind of homespun made of cotton into black. Therefore, in the rural areas of Guanzhong, most of the clothes owned by middle-aged and elderly people are black. This is probably related to Qin Shihuang's legacy of taking water as virtue and subliming black. Almost all the elderly women in Guanzhong rural areas wear a black or white handkerchief on their heads. Outsiders don't understand why. In fact, this kind of Pappa is very practical, which can prevent wind, dust, rain, sun, sweat and hands, and can also be used to wrap things temporarily.

These are the top ten monsters in Shaanxi.
Seven, the house is half covered.
Due to the vast territory of China, houses in different places have different styles. But this half-house architectural style in Shaanxi is really rare. What is the reason? It turns out that during the slow development of agriculture in Shaanxi in the past hundred years, the population has increased rapidly. Due to the limited land area, large population and tight housing, families living together in rural areas have produced a freak in the architectural history of China-a "half-built" house. This kind of "half-covered and half-covered" house looks strange, but it is actually a dangerous signal of population expansion. I think, with the in-depth development of family planning work in China, this kind of "half-covered and half-covered" houses may be reduced until they disappear.
Eight, the girl is not foreign.
Guanzhong plain has fertile land and convenient irrigation. As long as there are seeds in the field, you can basically eat them. So few people go to other places to survive. There has long been a saying in Guanzhong area that "an old man will never leave Tongguan (Tongguan) or Sichuan". Over time, not only men don't travel far, but even girls don't marry far away. The main reason why girls don't marry far away is that they can take care of each other with their parents' families, and both of them are relatives and easy to move around.
Don't sit up.
Because Guanzhong men have to squat together for three meals a day to have an old bowl meeting, and they have to squat for more than an hour. In addition, in winter, people like to squat in the leeward and sunny places to "bask in the sun" or "lose the edge" to play chess. As a result, Guanzhong people formed the habit of squatting. Outsiders say this is "squatting up and not sitting on the bench."
X. Singing and Shouting
Shaanxi folk customs are simple, Guanzhong people are hardworking, eat in a big bowl and naturally sing loudly. Shaanxi opera is the main local opera in Guanzhong area, which is characterized by strong agitation and fast pace. In particular, the singing of the painted face is even more screaming, and the locals call it "earning a broken head." Outsiders joked: "singing Shaanxi opera requires three indispensable conditions." First, the stage should be firm so as not to collapse; " Second, actors should be healthy and avoid getting sick; Third, the audience should be bold so as not to be scared. Although this statement is excessive, for Guanzhong people, both singers and listeners are very happy. Working in the field, tired, roar a few words of Shaanxi opera, roar strong, listen to more people; I was lonely on the way to catch the carriage. I shouted a few words of Shaanxi opera, and the roaring people were full of energy and happy. During the slack season, or on holidays, opera lovers always like to get together and shout a few paragraphs. At this time, as long as you pull the strings (commonly known as flutes, huqin and other stringed instruments) and beat gongs and drums, the nearby men, women and children will gather immediately when they hear the sound, or they will be actors or listeners. This is a "self-study class" that costs neither money nor trouble, but also is very lively. Those who love singing and can sing will shout a few brave words on the recommendation of the "township party" or on their own initiative. This kind of shouting is compulsory and there is no reward. As long as the audience can shout "Yes", the comedian is as happy as winning some grand prize. People who yell, blushing and thick neck, yell "possessed"; Those who listen to it are fascinated by it in a quiet voice. Guanzhong people think that this is the real Shaanxi opera, which sounds very enjoyable, satisfying and beautiful.
