Chapter 135: Winemaking

In short, he opened the cap of the bottle containing the rice wine, and in an instant, a sweet and mellow smell overflowed.

The smell is fragrant and a little weird.

Different from the taste of various aromatic liquors, the taste of fruit wine with different colors and good looks, and the taste of beer is not only strange but also strange.

In short, the wine I took out was not perceptible to the alcohol in my mouth, the taste was extremely fresh, the fragrance was not strong but extremely mellow, and it also had the notes of caramel, maltose, and osmanthus cake.

The mellow aroma and fresh taste are matched together, which not only achieves the fragrance in the empty cup, but also has a long aftertaste in the mouth.

Tang Zhen, who drank it for the first time, was immediately conquered by this fresh and mellow wine.

Feeling the afterglow in his mouth, Luoyang smashed his mouth and looked at Jian Yan, who was mixing the brewed water with boiled water, and said, "This is wine?" ”

It's a strange wine, but it's really delicious.

"Well, sake brewing, also known as rice wine."

Jian Yan put down the stirred rice wine, scooped a bowl of flour and poured it into the basin, picked up the rice wine again and slowly poured it into the flour, and continued to stir the flour with chopsticks, while saying, "Rice wine is a traditional specialty wine in China, and the main raw materials come from glutinous rice and koji. ”

"The glutinous rice you are talking about is a sticky glutinous rice that is very sticky whether it is boiled whole or crushed, and it has all the four colors of red, white, black and purple?"

Jian Yan's hand stirring the flour stiffened for a moment, and then his expression was natural, "Yes, it's that glutinous rice." ”

"This is the taste of sake made from glutinous rice?"

"No, the one I brew is white glutinous rice wine, which is mainly fresh in taste, mellow in flavor and long in aftertaste;

Black glutinous rice is mainly sweet, sweet but not greasy and without miscellaneous taste;

Red glutinous rice, also known as blood glutinous, is made of wine that is crystal clear, red and bright, with elegant and pleasant aroma, sweet and sour taste, mellow and luscious.

Red glutinous rice wine is suitable for women to drink, and has the effect of strengthening the stomach and spleen, and invigorating qi and blood.

Of course, drinking other glutinous rice wine is also good for the human body.

The ancestors of China have a saying that medicine and food are not separated, and those who know medicine may not necessarily cook, but those who can cook must know some medicine..."

"Why is that?"

"The ingredients of the food are different, and at the same time there will be a wonderful reaction.

It's like chicken and celery can't be eaten together, which hurts the vitality.

Crabs cannot be eaten with persimmons and will have diarrhea.

Peanuts and cucumbers cannot be eaten together, which hurts the body.

Chicken and glutinous rice are mutually reinforcing, and eating them will cause physical discomfort.

Chicken can't be eaten with sesame seeds, it can be fatal..."

In short, a series of inability to eat together provoked Tang Zhen, their faces changed greatly, and cold sweat soaked out of their foreheads.

"There are so many taboos about eating a meal, we didn't know before."

Jian Yan put down the chopsticks, took out all the flour stirred into a flocculent shape from the basin and put it on the board, and said while kneading the dough, "Illness (poison) comes from the mouth, and it is better to pay attention to it in the future." ”

"Okay, we'll pay attention to it later, you can tell us more."

Regarding Tang Zhen's attitude of taking the initiative to learn, Jian Yan said that he was very satisfied, and he would not be afraid, as long as he was willing to learn, he would not be a problem, and he was afraid of people who did not know how to pretend to understand and refused to learn.

The revival of Chinese food culture requires all chefs to work together, and it is not feasible for her to do it alone.

Without the memory of the original, she has no sense of belonging to the empire, but she has a deep sense of Chinese culture and affection.

She wants to carry forward Chinese cuisine in this era that is not known how far away from her original world.
