Zhang Zhupo called "The Golden Vase Plum" the first strange book.
Its strangeness lies not only in the boundless desire of spring, but also in the creation of a strong and scorching fireworks in the world.
The ancients said: Chromophobia also.
In addition to the bold descriptions of sexual affairs, the depictions of food in the book are also brilliant.
It is full of clouds and paper, listing delicacies, and full of color and fragrance.
There are fragrant, crispy and delicious big crabs, and some people sigh after eating: I have lived fifty-two years in vain, and I don't know how to make crabs, how spicy and delicious!
There are also fragrant tea and mulberry cakes, candied golden oranges to make tea, grapes, flowing red plums and ......I can't help but eat my fingers.
Perhaps, the meaning of life is to eat and drink.
Eating well, drinking well, and living a good life are the fulfillment of merit.
In winter, it is not as delicious as dumplings, dumplings are also known as water horns, which have the same origin as wontons, and can be steamed and boiled. Let's take a look at three stories about a dumpling.
In "Golden Vase Plum", the dumplings are even more wrapped in Pan Jinlian's lovesick ...... for Ximenqing
1. Pan Jinlian's dumplings: lovesickness of lovers
Ximen Qing was busy with his daughter's marriage, and snubbed Pan Jinlian for more than a month.
Pan Jinlian leans on the door every day and sees through it.
I don't know who said, "The way to a man's heart is through the stomach." ”
Pan Jinlian used two red embroidered shoes to make a lovesick hexagram, and also made a cage of stuffed meat horns, waiting for Ximen Qing to eat.
Once, Pan Jinlian and his wife Wu Yueniang got angry, and when they saw Ximenqing, they fell into his arms, whimpering, and the pear blossoms brought rain, which softened his heart.
Ximenqing hugged and persuaded on the one hand, and finally the clouds disappeared.
He instructed Yahuan: "Dismantle the fresh meat and add a few strands of chicken, add sour bamboo shoots and leeks, and make a big bowl of fragrant wonton soup." "Put down the table and set it up, and serve the meal at the same time. Another box of flan was baked. Ximen Qing and Jin Lian sat side by side and ate together.
In winter, Ximen Qing visited Lichun Courtyard at night when he stepped on the snow, took off his mink fur, and sat with the powder head around the hearth, and the aroma in the room hit people. I also eat three ou'er yellow sprouts and leek meat buns, and an inch-sized water horn.
A cage of meat horns is Pan Jinlian's lovesickness for her lover Ximen Qing, and the wontons are also Ximen Qing's supper to coax Pan Jinlian.
The eyes are full of green mountains and empty thoughts, it is better to take pity on the people in front of you.
A dumpling, couples who support their parents, raise their parents, and work hard for their careers eat you and me.
2. Cai Lan's meat dumplings: the friendship of monks
Cai Lan, one of the four great talents in Hong Kong, is known as the "God of Food". He told a story about dumplings.
Cai Lan didn't know how to make dumplings, when he was young in Japan, his classmates were so poor that they couldn't afford to eat meat, and everyone said "meat, meat, how good meat is".
He ran to the department store and asked the pork seller to throw the side meat in the trash.
Cai Lan took it back like a baby, chopped the stuffing with a large number of leeks and meat, and then beat one or two eggs and mixed well.
The classmates all gathered around, learning to make dumplings, and keeping the ugly ones.
Cai Lan's stomach was growling with hunger, searching for the residual impression of his parents' dumplings, and he learned in this way.
Boil the pot under water to cook, and that meal of dumplings was the most satisfying for them.
Later, one of Cai Lan's classmates went to the United States and became a monk.
One day, this classmate came to Hong Kong to find Cai Lan, and Cai Lan said I have a treat, what do you want to eat?
The classmate said that he wanted to eat the dumplings made by Cai Lan.
Cai Lan exclaimed, you are crazy, that's meat!
The classmate replied, "I eat feelings and memories, and it has nothing to do with meat." ”
It's rare to have like-minded friends in life.
Li Bai sent a poem to Du Fu "Sijun Ruowen Water, Mighty Southern Expedition".
Lu Xun wrote a couplet to Qu Qiubai: "It is enough to have a confidant in life, and the world should treat it with the same mind."
When the parents' green silk unconsciously changed into white hair, although there were children and partners on the side.
Perhaps, we are always afraid of our family members worrying, and often report good news but not bad news. Unwilling to expose vulnerability and sadness.
We stumble alone in the fog of the unknown of life.
At this time, we need the company of friends, and eating dumplings with friends, that is friendship.
3. Wang Zengqi's vegetarian dumplings: grandmother's affection
Writer Wang Zengqi recalled his grandmother, saying that one year his grandfather had a serious illness, she made a wish in front of the Buddha, and since then she has eaten a long fast.
When she celebrates her birthday, she always has to eat a vegetarian meal at Guanyin Nunnery. The best thing to eat in vegetarian food is mushroom dumplings.
Mushroom (i.e. mushroom) soup, shepherd's cabbage, fragrant dried powder as filling, wrapped into thin skin dumplings, fried through crispy, poured into the boiling mushroom soup, snorting sound, scooped with a spoon, fragrant and beautiful.
The most unforgettable things for the donors who eat Changzhai are all mushroom dumplings.
After they had eaten, they called the head of the house and asked, "How is this done?"Why is it so fresh?Didn't you put shrimp roe?”
The owner replied: "No, no, how can you put shrimp roe!."It's mushrooms!- Soup of soybean sprouts. ”
Cai Lan said: "Sometimes, what we eat is not food, it is a habit and a kind of nostalgia. ”
We are swept up in the tide of urbanization. At this moment, are you sitting with your family in your hometown, or do you have to wander in another country?
What's the best thing to eat?Of course, it's my mother's cooking!
It's always the best, and it's never going to get back.
Does a dumpling make you miss the taste of your childhood or hometown?
A dumpling is the glue that connects people's emotions and makes love, friendship, and family exude warmth in winter.
It seems that my happiness in winter is the words in "Golden Vase Plum" on a snowy night, the eyes of the wood, and the heart of the field - you!The second is to eat steaming dumplings.
