The ‘Big Pocket’ on the Sichuan-Tibet Highway Cut Open Reveals a Lot of Stones, 1200 Worth
Hello, dear friends, everyone. Many people like to travel to the Sichuan-Tibet Highway. The road you must take when going to Tibet is the Sichuan-Tibet Highway. In recent years, many backpackers, self-drivers, or cyclists, or even people who hike, have come to the Sichuan-Tibet Highway in various ways for a soul-stirring journey. If you have been to the Sichuan-Tibet Highway, you will find all kinds of people traveling in different ways on the road. The scenery along the road is particularly beautiful, making people feel very happy, and here you can almost not find any food, what is it?
The Tibetan area is rich in yak. Yak beef is very delicious. Tibet has a lot of yak beef, which is also very expensive. However, the purity of yak beef is different. Some yak beef is mixed with a lot of flour, while some is very little. If the yak beef is very pure, it will taste very hard. So many people made yak beef into dried beef, which is also very delicious and easier to store. In Tibet, dried beef is a particularly delicious snack.
We ordered a 'cow pouch' in a restaurant run by local herders. Many friends have never eaten cow pouch. The price of this dish is as high as 1200 yuan, but when we saw the real thing, we didn't think it was particularly expensive because the portion was so large. The boss said that it was as much as 20+ kilograms, so the cost per kilogram of meat was about 60 yuan, which was quite cost-effective, considering that the ordinary beef we eat is 60-70 yuan per kilogram. The local boss said that the meat was very cost-effective and was a wild meat from Tibet, which was very tender, and was completely different from the beef we usually eat.
Yaks live on the grassland from a young age, eating all kinds of grass. In the Tibetan area, there are some Chinese medicines such as winter aconite and summer grasses. Yaks eat these after, their bodies become stronger, and the beef we eat after will absorb these nutrients, so the calorie content of yak beef is a little lower, and the protein content is much higher than ordinary meat.
When this dish came up, a fragrant aroma immediately hit our nostrils, instantly stimulating our appetite. When we opened it, there were all kinds of rich ingredients inside, but what surprised us was that there were stones inside. The boss said that they would put hot stones in the meat and steam it for a while. That's a little cheaper, because there were 20+ kilograms of meat inside. But the taste was really good, and the boss was quite hardworking.
If friends want to travel on the Sichuan-Tibet Highway, they must be in good physical condition, and it is best to choose self-driving. When self-driving, it is best to choose off-road vehicles because the roads here are not easy to walk. At the same time, it is important to bring a little food, because the food here is expensive, and sometimes there are no places to buy it. It's really difficult. But the journey is the process of our growth, and we should learn more and discover our potential in this journey. What do you think? Welcome to leave comments below!
