Chang Jiuchun looked at Fang Monan's cooking techniques, and smacked his tongue, "Good things are often eaten by the Dog Emperor. No wonder the poor people always rebel and want to eat delicious food. ”

"Huh! Look at what I'm doing! Again, I'm not wrong. Chang Jiuchun shrugged.

"Yes, yes!" Old Man Lin said with a smile. "That rebellion was not about survival, I can't survive."

As soon as the topic changed, the old man said, "But when Jin Shengsi, a famous genius of the Qing Dynasty, told his son when he was dying: 'Eating tofu and spinach together has the taste of roast goose.'" I'm afraid it's just a helpless expanse. ”

"Mr. Qu Qiubai wrote his last words in prison, 'Superfluous Words', and at the end of this long article, which caused great controversy, Mr. Qiubai wrote a puzzling sentence: 'Chinese tofu is also a very delicious thing, the world's first.'" A professional revolutionary suddenly thought of eating at the end of his life, which cannot but make people think and think. Even if it's to eat, there are many things to think about and write about, but Mr. Qiubai just wrote about tofu, maybe there is a deep meaning in this? Fang Menan remembered.

"Meaning? Of course, everyone loves tofu! Chang Jiuchun said casually.

"Poof......" "I don't laugh, you're right." Fang Monan raised his hand and winked playfully.

"Ajiu is right! Tofu can be said to be the quintessence of our country, Mr. Zhou Zuoren, a great writer of the May Fourth generation, has a soft spot for tofu, he likes to talk about food, and the most talked about is tofu. He often said that half of the side dishes that the Chinese people love to eat are cabbage radish and half of tofu products...... He also said: tofu, fried tofu, dried tofu, tofu skin, tofu dregs, in addition to tofu pulp and bean bread. The dishes have their own flavor and are not monotonous, such as making ten bowls of dishes from a tofu shop, which must be much better than the whole pig table in the casserole. ”

"A simple piece of tofu can make so many dishes." Chang Jiuchun sighed.

"Kung fu is in it." Old Man Lin said. He teased, "Nannan, are you like Yuan Mei!" ”

"Who is Yuan Mei!" Vera asked curiously.

Yuan Mei was a famous literary scholar in the Qing Dynasty, and his book "Suiyuan Food List" is a must-read book for gourmets. Old Man Yuan likes to eat, in addition to being delicious, he is also very lustful. He had a large group of wives and concubines. There are more than 50 female disciples. It is human nature to eat and drink.

So now many people like to watch Yuan Mei, saying, look at people. It's delicious and. That's nice! It's just going straight to the highest ideal of life. ”

"So! Life. Eat and drink. Fang Monan said with a smile, leaning lazily on the back of the chair, with a normal smile on the corner of his lips, and his expression was leisurely and lazy.

Said she was a foodie, she admitted. But lustful, Taoism pays attention to pure heart and few desires, and is quiet and inactive. It's just an appreciation of beautiful things.

"You!" Old Man Lin smiled dotingly, "Old Man Yuan has included nine kinds of tofu in the miscellaneous vegetarian menu of "Suiyuan Food List", and any delicious food can be included in tofu. The combination of tofu and various dishes is the most gregarious and casual, as light as clear water cabbage tofu, and as bright as Wang Taishou Babao tofu. It can be seen that he has a soft spot for tofu. ”

"So the tofu itself does not have any special taste, it is as plain as water, only its blandness, can be processed to produce a variety of dazzling tofu series.

There is a very philosophical saying that plain is true. I guess the same is true of the art of eating. It's really true, that is, it's real. Make delicious food in plain and real, so that everyone can also be gourmet.

A sentence of the Qing Dynasty poet Cha Shenxing: You must know that the life of the river is the longest. It is also in line with the highest level of tofu cuisine. As the so-called: a light seven-point water, the whole body is crystal light on all sides. The rich and the poor are all loved, and everyone calls him the king of dishes. Tofu is tasteless and tasteless, and useless is useful, and everything in the world is like this! ”

"Oh! This delicacy is more delicious if it has cultural heritage! Taste the food, taste the taste of life. That's nice! Chang Jiuchun also shook his head and said, looking like a master.

"Humph! As long as it's delicious. Vera said with a grin.

"The big truth!" Several people looked at each other and smiled.

"Hurry up and get to work, or you won't have to eat lunch!" Fang Menan urged.

Finally in time for the meal, the tofu feast.

Grandma, the fat man, and Dashan looked at the table full of tofu banquets in amazement, "This is all made of tofu." ”

"Uh-huh!" Fang Monan nodded with a smile.

"I know this mapo tofu that we often eat, known as a woman's dish!" The fat man said half-bent over.

The crowd took their seats.

"Why is it called a woman's dish?" Vicara asked curiously, sitting at the dining table.

"Authentic mapo tofu is numb, spicy, hot, crispy, fragrant, fresh and tender, and is called a typical symbol of women's dishes by the literati: white, tender, spicy and hot." Old Man Lin said with a smile.

"Oh ha! Reasonable. Guan Dashan smiled and said with a smile on his face, which shows that he feels the same way, he must be a 'strict wife' at home.

"What about the man's dish?" Everyone wondered.

"Matching it, the rai that symbolizes men is oyster sauce beef!" Fang Menan said with a smile.

The men's faces suddenly realized!

"Huh! What is this? The fat man pointed to a small saucer and said, there was only one white and chubby, like a big ball.

"Oh! This is called, wrapped tofu balls, a famous snack in southern Fujian. Fang Manan made a look, "Taste it." ”

"Hmm!" After tasting it, the fat man said, "The tofu balls after the filling are white and delicious, which makes people forget to return after eating." ”

"Fatty! If you coax Huixin with this, she will definitely be happy. Fang Menan quipped.

"Boss, what do you mean by that?" The fat man blinked and humbly begged for advice.

"Wrap the heart of the tofu balls, crush the tofu, finish wrapping the meat filling, facing the white and gentle tofu, some powder makeup, this is not a big fight, just blindly gorgeous turn, a mouth, soft tofu and meat fragrance intertwined, only to find: babble, under such a gentle appearance, there is such a sultry and charming child."

After eating, the fat man tasted it carefully and gave a thumbs up, "Haha...... Well said! ”

The wrapped tofu balls are tender on the outside and firm on the inside, with a double taste that makes people want to stop.

"As soon as I heard this laughter, I knew it was my fat man." A crisp and pleasant sound came from outside the door.

"Huixin, you're back." The fat man jumped out suddenly, and he didn't have time to put the spoon in his hand.

"Huixin, toot ......" the fat man shouted stupidly, and hugged his wife and children.

"Hey! What's the matter with just the two of you. The fat man said with a frown as he saw that there was no one behind her. Why did you come back, why didn't you notify me in advance! ”

"Come in first, don't stand at the door and it's cold!" Grandma waved her hand and said.

"Look, I'm glad I'm here." The fat man held the child and took Jian Huixin's hand and walked over, and Chang Jiuchun pulled out the chair. Aunt Lian got up and took out a set of chopsticks and put them in front of Jian Huixin.

"Thank you!" The fat man said, and the family of three sat down at the table.

"Tell me, how did you get back?" The fat man hugged his son, grabbed Jian Huixin's hand tightly, and asked anxiously. How can a woman with a child come back from Hong Kong so far away.

Jian Huixin looked at his nervous appearance, and her heart was indescribably sweet. "Don't worry, we came back from the train. Six of them came back with me from Hong Kong, but they got off in Rongcheng to look for Bai Qing. ”

"You're really, you won't let me know when you come back." The fat man smiled helplessly. It's okay, it's okay! It takes more than three hours to get here by train from Rongcheng.

"Hey...... I don't want to surprise you! Jian Huixin said playfully.

"Surprise, fright!" The fat man grabbed his son's flying hand. "Hungry! Hungry! Eat! ”

"Daddy,, don't talk, our family is hungry." Fang Monan reminded the two of them with a smile.

His black grape-like eyes stared at the delicious food on the table, his eyes were on fire, and he wanted to burn the food. "Eat, eat!" With his mouth wide open, his little hands were still scratching and grabbing, hoping that his mother could feed him.

"Son, I'm hungry!" The fat man held the spoon, Fang Monan handed over a small plate, he carefully scooped a little wrapped tofu balls and put them into Dudu's mouth.

"Eat! Fast! Fast! He took a bite of it, his hands fluttering and pointing at the little butterfly in front of him, and he couldn't wait to swallow it.

"Huixin! It's better to be in time than to be in a hurry, and the tofu feast made today is all eaten by the elderly and children. Let the fat man feed the doo! You hurry up and eat, and after a few days on the train, you can suffer from the old sin. Grandma said. As for the newcomers, they are introduced after eating. ”

"Hey! Aunt Mo, let's eat together. Jian Huixin picked up the chopsticks and said with a smile.

Everyone stopped talking and concentrated on eating, and the fat man fed his son happily, and his mouth kept introducing the dishes made of these tofu.

"Hmm! It's still delicious food at home! Jian Huixin put down the dishes and chopsticks and sat down on the chair, very unproductive, and ate well.

In fact, it was not only her, but everyone else was also well fed and lazily did not want to move. Even Xiao Dudu was fed too much by the fat man all at once.

Fang Monan got up and went out, and when he came back, he took some hawthorn pills to eliminate appetite. One per person, and the little doodoo is specially made.

The fat man introduced the newcomers Vera and Vikala to Jian Huixin, and several people exchanged a few words of greeting.

Grandma sat on the chair and leaned back, looking at the mess on the table, eating the bottom to the sky, putting her hand on her knee and knocking lightly, thinking about it.

Fang Monan smashed his elbow against his grandmother, and smiled meaningfully, "What does grandma think!" His eyes were shining, and he looked like he was obsessed with money. I want a tofu feast! ”

"You girl, haven't you already seen it." Grandma teased her, smiled and rubbed her head and smiled. "But don't panic now, I'm waiting for you to research out other dishes, especially the tofu dishes on the "Suiyuan Food List"."

"Oh! Grandma is so interested. Fang Menan raised his eyebrows and said playfully, don't look at the recipes, if you want to make a finished product, especially if it is so delicious as the legend, you have to ponder and ponder. (To be continued......)
