Chapter 96: Ebony Scar
"You......"
Ling Yuxin couldn't help but smile after hearing this, and after hearing a joke, she relaxed towards eating frogs. The whole plate of meat is put into the pot and tossed in the red oil soup, which is full of aroma and very tempting.
"Delicious!"
Wen Yiming picked up a piece of stone chicken, just put it in his mouth, immediately turned into a rich and delicious soup, the taste buds were jubilant, and the ears seemed to sound bursts of frog calls, crisp and pleasant, a group of natural harmony and fun.
"Frogs are so delicious!"
Ling Yuxin picked up a small piece, took a bite gently, and was instantly conquered by the deliciousness, and couldn't help but sigh: "Extremely tender, extremely delicious!"
Everyone laughed and continued to feast, and soon the whole plate of stone chickens was also wiped out, everyone was sweating profusely, and the fatigue was swept away, which was very enjoyable.
"Come, try the bamboo shoots we just picked in the mountains!"
Ah Feng brought two large plates of milky white bamboo shoot slices, and said with a smile: "It is estimated that everyone is a little spicy, it's okay, the bamboo shoots will know what is called fresh when they are eaten!"
Smelling a loud nose, the crisp and delicious spring bamboo shoots in front of him took advantage of the moistness of the spring rain to break through the soil and become a good dish on the plate. Because it belongs to spring, it smells on the tip of the nose and is full of the taste of spring.
"One night of spring rain, bamboo shoots and eaves, it means that spring bamboo shoots are vigorous and grow very fast, so spring bamboo shoots must be eaten at the right time. When we mountain people pick spring bamboo shoots, we must pick those bamboo shoots that have just been drilled out of the soil layer and the shells are tender and yellow, which are particularly delicious. The tighter the knots of the bamboo shoots, the more tender and refreshing the flesh will be. ”
Ah Feng introduced: "The mountains here do not produce bamboo, there are more water bamboo, oil bamboo, and the spotted bamboo known as Xiangfei bamboo. The first two kinds of bamboo, the bamboo shoots are all delicious, only the shell is covered with pockmarked bamboo shoots, the Miao people shout to make hemp bamboo shoots or bitter bamboo shoots, bitter and inedible. ”
"When it rains, the mist in the bamboo forest is misty, and the tips of the bamboo shoots that have just broken through the soil are hung with crystal water droplets, which are extremely fresh. This is the mushrooms after the rain, fresh and elegant. ”
"When picking bamboo shoots, aiming at the new bamboo shoots five or six inches high, kicking slightly, snapping the roots are crisp and crisp, although it is trouble-free, but it is a pity to leave a white and tender section in the soil. ”
"We usually stick a small shovel to the root of the bamboo shoot diagonally and insert it under the soil, and then lift the bamboo shoot lightly. When peeling bamboo shoots, cut a hole vertically into the bamboo shoots, about to the bamboo shoot flesh, and completely remove the shell from bottom to top, the bamboo shoots will not break, and the cut out is a complete strip. ”
Ling Yuxin usually eats a vegetarian diet and likes bamboo shoots the most, so she answered: "Actually, I think the best thing to eat is the kind of green wild bamboo shoots! The leaves of the small wild bamboo are thin and tough, and they mostly grow in desolate and uninhabited places, such as polders and grave beaches, mixed with wild grasses and thorns. ”
"Its bamboo shoots are a little late, about the beginning of April in the middle of spring to drill out of the ground, like a green hosta, peel off the shell, a small strip of fine Lingling, that peerless unstained fine dust temperament and elegant slim body, will make you look at it moving. ”
"I especially like the small bamboo shoots cut into pieces and stir-fried pickles with shredded pork, and if you add some green broad bean craffes or round pea grains, it is really fresh. ”
"The Yangtze River surrounds Guo Zhiyu is beautiful, and the bamboo and mountains are fragrant!"
Wen Yiming and Ling Yuxin glanced at each other, and said with a smile: "A few years ago, I was fortunate to go to Jiuhua Mountain, where I lived for two or three days, catering mountain delicacies, and having no food or bamboo shoots. The bamboo shoots are hairy bamboo shoots, fat and strong, and there is juice oozing from the cut at the bottom, which is very fresh. ”
"Peel off the thick shell of the chestnut bamboo shoots, a little white with a faint layer of green, cut into thick hob pieces and blanched, braised with meat, or bring small ribs and add bacon to cook together, without any seasoning, the meat is rotten and eaten, a large bowl is served on the table, and the room is full of gluttonous aroma. ”
"We went down to the steep slope of the Longchi Grand Canyon to see the wild tea trees, and found that the kind of small wild bamboo you mentioned was everywhere, but it was more lush among the cliffs and rocks. The spring breeze is blowing, the azaleas are blooming, and the small bamboo shoots are poking their heads out of the bushes and thorns all over the mountains, and they are all over the eyes. ”
"The B&B we stayed in, during the day, the adults picked tea, the children pulled bamboo shoots, leaving an old grandmother to sit on the bamboo chair at the door and peel the bamboo shoot shells. ”
"First tear out a little skin of the bamboo shoots, wrap them around the index finger, three times and two times, and it will become a slender and tender white bamboo shoot that has taken off its coat. Peel off a basket of baskets, boil the pot with boiling water, and catch the sun to dry it. In the forest surrounded by bamboo trees, the birdsong is quiet. ”
Ling Yuxin clamped the tip of the most tender bamboo shoot, put it in her mouth, and chuckled: "The higher the spring bamboo shoots, the more tender the meat, and when it comes to the tip of the bamboo shoots, even the shell is so tender that it will break when touched, and it is the most beautiful to eat raw!"
"Although the bamboo shoots are delicious, in most cases they are in a supporting role, like a fresh little jasper, although they live in a corner, they are peaceful and quiet, but they make you unforgettable. is not publicized, it is the kind of artistic conception that is indifferent to the dust, and it has a little bit of literati bitter temperament. ”
Ah Feng's wife served a bowl of white rice, full of grains, snow-white as jade, soft in the mouth, with bamboo shoots, fragrant and elegant, greasy and exhausted, this meal is very satisfying.
After cleaning up, Ah Feng said: "There is a market in the village in the afternoon, many people will set up stalls to sell mountain goods, today we can no longer enter the mountain, we can only wait for tomorrow, you can go around if you are interested." ”
Wen Yiming nodded, full of wine and food, just yo-yo food, a few people went to book accommodation first, and then came directly to the market in the middle of the village, sure enough, there were a lot of people, not only Miao people, but also many foreign businessmen.
A few people walked around, selling everything, bamboo shoots, wild fungus, and all kinds of mountain delicacies. The further you go, the more wood gradually appears, and some people begin to sell huanghuali, which are basically small materials, branches, roots, and tree head materials.
Wen Yiming habitually used the sense of smell to hunt for treasure, walked around and did not harvest, Huanghuali has a few good ingredients, but the price is not low, there are many buyers, are hot goods.
"Huh, this is ......."
Just as he was about to give up, a strange smell suddenly came, attracting him to an inconspicuous stall, the stall owner was a middle-aged man, a piece of red cloth was placed on the ground, seven, seven, eight, eight, everything.
"This brother, is this ebony?"
Wen Yiming squatted down, picked up the root in front of him, his hands were cold and heavy, and his whole body was pitch black, and an unprecedented smell came into his nose.
"It's ebony, three hundred thousand!"
The middle-aged man looked up at Wen Yiming, and said casually: "Baby is baby, no one knows the goods, and now they all play red sandalwood and yellow pear, who still remembers the truth that there is ebony at home, and ten thousand dollars are not exchanged?"
"300,000?" Wen Yiming rubbed the root of the tree with his hand and said, "I want 200,000!"
"No, a fixed price, 300,000!"
The middle-aged man slowly stood up and said firmly: "The baby has been in my hands for more than two years, and it has dropped from one million at the beginning to 300,000 now, which is already the bottom line!
"Okay, deal!"
Wen Yiming grabbed the root of the tree tightly, hurriedly agreed, and the direct transfer was successful, and he turned around and left with the root. Secretly excited: "300,000, I won't change it for 5 million!"
"Ten thousand years of ebony scars, my God, this time is really picking up a big treasure!"
