Braised boiled fire is a traditional specialty snack in Beijing, which originated from Nanheng Street in the south of Beijing. It is said that during the Guangxu period, because the pork belly cooked with pork belly was expensive, people replaced it with pig head meat and pig water. Boiled and boiled fire is to cook the boiled and stewed pig intestines and pig lungs together, supplemented with fried tofu slices, marinade, garlic juice, soy tofu juice, coriander and other accessories, so that the fire will not burn through. Sticky, the meat is rotten but not bad, and it is very popular with people.
Historical Origin
The original stew came from the court’s “Su Zhuo Meat.” It is said that during the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, a man surnamed Zhao in Sanhe County, Hebei and Chen Zhaoen, the grandfather of Chen Yutian, the originator of today’s “small intestine Chen”, sold Su Zhuo meat together. Because the pork cooked with pork belly is expensive, and ordinary people can’t afford it, so they use pig head meat and pig water instead. After the spread of folk cooking masters, over time, the stewed boiled fire has been created. It is estimated that there are not many authentic Beijingers who do not like braised boiled fire.

Throw in the fried tofu and noodles, try to let the water press down on the noodles, and then cover and cook over low heat. You can eat it in 20 minutes, and you can keep the fire on while you eat.
