Notes on Jianli Folk (1)

From the beginning of writing, every moment of my life, I have been carefully observing the records, even on business trips.

These days, I took a business trip with several colleagues by special bus and went to Jianli Court in Hubei Province for business trip.

At noon, I found a place in Jianli County to arrange lunch for everyone.

Finally, I chose Tujia restaurant for dinner, and the local products are good.

Below, the signs of good local shops.

There is a pair of couplets on the left and right in the store:

Is it rustic enough? You already know the smell of the earth!

Look again, these rows of wall bricks are all unique blue mud bricks in Hubei. The blue mud comes from the mud at the bottom of the pond.

I chose this store. According to my observation, the typical decoration of his family members with Hubei characteristics and local flavor is the style of rural houses. I like this kind of environmental atmosphere that blends into folk culture.

The decorations on the interior walls of local products shops are all bamboo and wood products, and the old rural objects are collected and displayed, such as bamboo baskets, bamboo baskets, bamboo boxes, wooden windows, bamboo abacus, all kinds of pottery pots and all kinds of drinking porcelain ...

See antique decoration, the in the mind of the poem came out again:

The wooden tables, benches and cabinets in the hall are simple and heavy, and they are pure Chinese fir products in the water town. Here, I feel back to nature, smelling the unique fragrance of Metasequoia glyptostroboides, which makes people feel comfortable and relaxed.

Bamboo weaving is a three-dimensional modeling process made of bamboo filaments and bamboo strips, and it is the essence of China folk craft inheritance.

There are all kinds of local bamboo products in the local specialty museum.

Bamboo is a common plant in Hubei Province. I have seen the most beautiful bamboo, in the bamboo sea of Yichang Three Gorges. There are also many bamboo forests in the gardens and forests of Jingzhou, Gongan, Shishou and Jianli counties.

There are many bamboo forests, and the products related to bamboo are very rich.

Hometown is rich in bamboo, thin bamboo strips, which can be used too much.

What can bamboo sticks in my hometown do?

I understand that there are three uses:

1. Household appliances:

Bamboo door curtain, bamboo art lamp, bamboo basket, bamboo basket, bamboo box, bamboo chair, bamboo stool, bamboo table, bamboo cabinet, bamboo chopping board, bamboo pulp toilet paper (yellow), bamboo grate …

2. Production tools:

Bamboo basket, bamboo dustpan, bamboo sieve, bamboo dustpan, bamboo broom …

3. Artwork:

Bamboo curtain, bamboo art lamp, bamboo screen, bamboo painting, bamboo pen, bamboo slips, bamboo bookmarks, bamboo decorations …

Zhuzi Jumiere

Bamboo strips are bamboo skins cut into certain specifications; Bamboo strips.

bamboo screen/curtain

The picture below shows the quaint bamboo curtain hanging in the hall. Bamboo curtain is a practical handicraft made by hand with bamboo strips and strings.

Zhu Yi light-decoration

The bamboo strips on the roof are illuminated by hand, all made by hand. The skeleton is a bamboo stick and the shell is a hand-woven lampshade. This kind of artistic lamp woven with thin bamboo strips is beautiful and practical, and the strips are extremely fine and delicate, which is deeply loved by consumers in hometown. Reminds me of the meaning of "a good craftsman teaches others".

Shop calligraphy works that introduce the names of dishes.

Stir-fried Honghu water chestnut, stewed lotus root soup, fried rice balls, fried lotus root clips, tender Liu Hu, loach and tofu,

Fu henian m:

On Modern Chinese Dictionary;

1. Fu is a dish made of rice flour, flour and other seasonings.

Can be stored, such as "eggplant" and "lentils".

2.？ Fish salted with salt and red yeast.

"Jiangnan people are good at cooking and eating, and they are famous and buried in rice."

Some dictionaries call "catfish" fish pickled with salt and red yeast, which is wrong, because not all catfish are made of fish.

Fu allusions

Huang Tingjian, a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, wrote "Catching Yellow Birds", which tells us that birds in the ancient Song Dynasty can also be used to make catfish, and it is also a delicious food.

For example, Zhang Gong sent fish from Puyang (now Anlu County, Hebei Province), and he was very happy to have this kind of fish to cook noodles. He said that if the fish were sent to Beijing, the emperor would also regard it as a treasure.

Song Dynasty was the period when Fu prevailed.

The dream of the Northern Song Dynasty is that there are fresh geese, big fish and inch goldfish in Liang Lu.

The Secret of Eating Fairy Red in Qing Dynasty contains bamboo shoots, chicken and willow, so it is widely used as raw materials.

Manufacturing technology of swim bladder

How did the ancients do fu? Read Qi Yao Min Shu to know:

Slice carp, sprinkle with salt, take it out and drain it, spread it in an urn, put rice (mixed with Cornus officinalis, orange peel and wine) on it, and seal it with a layer of fish rice, which will not go bad for a long time.

Xie Xuan, a famous player in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, made the fish he caught into catfish and gave it to his beloved wife. The reason why it can be sent to a far place is related to its inability to keep it for a long time.

Squeezing is very important when making catfish. No matter whether it is pressed stone or twisted stone (twisted in cloth), it is to remove moisture and smell, so "Tai" is named according to this feature.

"Fu" is similar to "preserved", and it is easy to preserve after dehydration.

Bacon, focusing on the meat of livestock, is mostly dry.

Squid, mainly fish, mostly dry.

Fu was once a tribute to the imperial court.

In the Sui Dynasty, Fu was a tribute, and Wu Jun paid tribute to Fu, a carp, 40 clay pots at a time. Catfish was a common food in the Tang Dynasty, and Tang Zhaozong fled to Fengxiang to avoid chaos. Without good food, he ate catfish cooked by local pond fish.

The story of "Tao Kan delivers catfish"

There is a story in Liu Yiqing's Shi Shuo Xin Yu:

Tao Kan, an official of Yu Liang (a device to build a weir for fishing in water), filled an altar of fish and gave it to his mother. Her mother was afraid it was an "official gift", so she returned it and wrote a book to refute the rumor.

Are there any fish today?

Today, we can see this kind of Jianli folk food in local food.

An old couple in Yancheng opened a sauce vinegar factory, and his wife developed a pickle called eggplant. Cut eggplant into pinky strips, air-dry for several days to evaporate water, and then steam it in a cage. Stir-fry the washed rice and add a small amount of star anise, tsaoko and fennel seeds. Stir-fry and grind into powder. Mix dried tomato strips and rice flour with shredded red pepper, salt, wine and brown sugar, knead thoroughly, and can.

There is "Fu Ba Meat" in Taoyuan, Hunan;

Sichuan has meat, fish, pumpkin and chicory;

There are sour fish in Sandu county, southern Guizhou, which is fish; Dong people's pickled fish is also a kind of fish. The sour taste of rice mainly comes from the fermentation of rice. The Dong people are acidophilic, which is related to eating fish for generations.

China fliers spread to Japan.

There are horseshoe crabs in Japan, too. They call them horseshoe crabs.

Chinese characters are pronounced as "Qi", which can be found in Erya, an ancient book before Qin Dynasty.

In "Six Chapters of Erya Shi Qi", it is introduced: "Those who ice are fat. Meat is called soup, and fish calls it. "

The dictionary Jiyun in the Northern Song Dynasty interprets the word "Li" as "Li".

Obviously, catfish was introduced to Japan from China.

A professor of Nanjing Medical College ate Japanese fish during his visit to Japan and thought it was a famous dish.

Folk foods such as Fu have been handed down to this day, but they have not been lost, which shows that these foods are very popular.

? Dishes: Misgurnus anguillicaudatus drilling tofu.

Misgurnus anguillicaudatus drilled tofu, also known as Misgurnus anguillicaudatus drilled tofu, is a famous dish with folk flavor.

The main raw materials are loach fish and tofu.

Jianli special flavor snack "Fish Drilled Tofu Brain", before making, you should take a pot of cold water, put the fresh small fish in, beat the egg white, and wait for the internal organs of the small fish to be discharged and washed one day later.

Then use a casserole, put it on a small fire, and add the broth. Put the whole piece of old tofu and live loach into the pot at the same time. When the soup is hot, the loach drills into the tofu.

After stewing the broth for 30 minutes, add fresh shredded ginger, fresh winter bamboo shoots, carrots and other ingredients. After a while, remove the casserole from the fire and serve.

At this point, I saw the soup in the pot as clear as a mirror, tofu and fish intertwined, delicious and mouth-watering.
