"Chengjin, eat golden cicadas, but they will live forever. Walking on the way to the field, Hua Junyao quipped.
"Immortality, isn't that Tang monk meat. Hua Chengye's eyes lit up.
"Yes! The golden cicada is known as the meat of Tang monks. In "Journey to the West", the "Tang monk" who went to the west to learn scriptures was originally the second apprentice of Shakyamuni Buddha, "Golden Cicada", also known as the reincarnation of Elder Jin Cicada, Tang Sanzang was reincarnated by Jin Chanzi as a true spirit of the Tang Dynasty monk in Dongtu, which means "golden cicada shedding its shell", so people take the cicada transformed into a symbol of immortality and regeneration, therefore, in "Journey to the West", there is also a saying that eating "Tang monk meat" can be immortal. ”
"Oh, then when I eat, I'm going to eat more and live forever. Hua Chengze said seriously.
"Little fool!" Hua Junyao said to him, "Although it is not Tang monk meat, it is nutritious and delicious." ”
The rarest natural pollution-free high-grade nutritious food. In particular, nymphs are not only nutritious and delicious, but also have high medicinal value, making them the best for medicinal diets.
"It's a pity that Chengzhi didn't come, otherwise we could have caught it together. Hua Chengjin said regretfully.
Hua Chengzhi went to his grandmother's house during the summer vacation, Hua Junyao touched his head and said, "I only went for more than a week, and your second uncle said that he would pick up people in two days and send them over." ”
"Hmm!"
"Let's go, I've caught the monkey, I see a lot of people. The monk urged.
After eating the May rice dumplings and the steamed dumplings with new wheat, the cuckoo screamed hoarsely in the sky: "The grain should be a hoe! The grain should be a hoe! The peasants were busy in the fields, and on the branches of the trees in the forks of the rivers and ravines, there were sparse cicadas chirping.
Frog drums, cicadas, crickets, children's laughter, the most beautiful sounds in the countryside!
A timely rain will continue to rain lightly, autumn soybeans will arch out of the tender yellow and soft body, small corn seedlings will be in full bloom, when sweet potato seedlings grow wildly, and the cries of cicadas will become denser and denser.
It's summer vacation, and there are really a lot of children who come to catch monkeys.
Outside the dark village, you will see either brightly lit villages or sparse lights in the woods and orchards. Some of the golden cicadas are taken home to eat, and some are fed to chickens or pigs.
Of course, most of the children carried horse lanterns, kerosene lamps to protect against wind and rain.
Hua Junyao flashed a flashlight under the tree, and there were a lot of small eyes under the plane tree, "This is guaranteed." Dig it!"
"I'll come. Hearing this, Hua Chengjin squatted down and pulled down, took a small bamboo shovel and took action. When the shovel is opened, the hole will become larger, and there will usually be monkeys in it that have not yet crawled out. Catch one and throw it into the fish basket.
Hua Chengye looked at the harvest of his eldest brother and saw a hole, so he was eager to try, "Then I'll dig this." ”
"Don't. Hua Junyao pressed Hua Chengye's arm and hurriedly said, "That's the nest." ”
"Huh?" Hua Chengye immediately stood up.
"Be careful, some are the nests of the shell Langzi, digging and digging, the shell Langzi will roll out, and the little hands will become stinky. Hua Junyao looked at them with a smile and said.
"Huh?" the three little ones immediately shook their heads in disgust.
"Be careful, some small eyes can have long worms living in them. Hua Junyao scared them.
"Ahh
"What's it called? It's a cauliflower snake, and it's not poisonous. Hua Chengjin said in a small adult manner.
"It's a cauliflower snake, and it's delicious to make snake soup. "Monks are not taboo about meat.
Hua Junyao is even more ferocious, she has done everything she eats raw, otherwise it is a last resort, and she has no intention of provoking it now. Besides, they are all small long worms, which are not enough to stuff the teeth.
Hua Junyao knows the habits of monkeys well, and she doesn't have to work in vain, so she has gained a lot.
Compared with other children, Hua Junyao is very fast and accurate, and when they catch the monkey army, they are smiling, and those who are not caught are depressed. Catch the monkey and relive the feeling of childhood. Hard work is also fun!
Hua Junyao returned home with a full load, and soaked the captured monkey in salt water for one night. In addition to cleaning, there is also to prevent it from molting into a cicada.
In addition to deliciousness, the monkey is also very nutritious, and the monkey is rich in protein, which is three times that of ordinary beef and mutton.
As for how to eat, Hua Junyao has two simple methods in her mind: frying, salt and pepper. Before frying the monkey, put the washed monkey into boiling water and scald to death. Steam in a pot for 5 minutes to steam out the water. Put oil in the pot, when the oil is boiled to 4 hot, put in the chopped green onions, ginger and garlic, stir-fry to bring out the fragrance, pour in the monkey, keep stir-frying, fry until crispy, when you see the shell becomes crispy, the color becomes golden, it means that it is cooked, add fine salt, 'five-spice powder' out of the pot.
The method of salt and pepper is similar to that of frying, except that the fine salt is replaced with salt and pepper before it comes out of the pot, so that the taste is more fragrant, crispy and tender. The method of barbecue is to clean the monkey, skewer it with a bamboo skewer, put it on the charcoal fire and sprinkle cumin after it is cooked, and then you can start eating, which is simple and easy to do.
There is also a method that mixes fine cornmeal and rolls out coarse dough. Wash the monkey and put it on the pan and burn it. The tweezers were hot at the right time, and after a few minutes, the monkey rose up and swelled up. She pressed the monkey with a shovel and made a "zizi" sound. The swollen turtle deflated, its body elongated, the juice splashed, and the fragrance wafted out.
When the charred and crisp monkey was served, her father Hua Laoshi and Hua Henian, as well as the master's family, Hua Laofu and Hua Jianguo, took the good wine Wuliangye brought by the master, and drank it while eating and drinking.
The women drank monkey wine, and the gods did not change this delicious little day.
The men in the family ate a monkey in one bite, while Hua Junyao ate very finely, peeling and claws, starting from the stomach of the monkey, the stomach is protein, and it is soft to bite into. I ate it on my back and found the feeling. A hint of lean meat, like chicken but not like chicken. The skin is delicious, crunchy, and the eyes are bright when eaten.

Good things naturally have to be shared, and it can be regarded as a reward for Xiao Chubei and the two of them for their hard training these days.
After the fried monkey and the monkey wine, let the six ears carry the basket and hand it to Xiao Chubei, which is considered a supper.
When Xiao Chubei and the two of them got it, the wind narrowed from Hu Le's eyes to slits, "Sister Yao is interesting, I haven't eaten it for a long time." "Eating and drinking monkey wine," company commander, I feel old, and I actually begin to miss the scene of climbing trees and catching knowledge when I was a child. I'm only twenty-four. ”
"If you are old, am I not even older? Xiao Chubei squinted his eyes and said, holding the monkey and putting it in his mouth and chewing it carefully, "I feel that my life has just begun." After taking a sip of fruit wine, I felt warm all over my body, and the corners of my mouth were slightly upturned, revealing a sunny smile, full of energy. (To be continued.) )
