"Dream of the Red Chamber" 87th time to write that Dai Yu because Shi Xiangyun said the words of the south, touched the nostalgia, and could not help but think of their own sending people under the fence of loneliness, so one person returned to Xiao Xiang Hall, and then wrote Purple Crane let The Snow Goose tell the kitchen to make a bowl of fire meat cabbage soup, and also added shrimp and rice, with green shoots and seaweed, the whole northeast stew is similar, and then writes that Dai Yu drinks rice porridge, and eats spiced kohlrabi mixed with sesame oil and vinegar. In the end, Daiyu's evaluation was actually "the taste is good, and it is clean."
This description after eighty times is really incomprehensible, not to mention the bowl of greasy smorgasbord soup, just Xiaoxiang Hall, which has always been a poetic and immortal residence, actually pickled a pot of spiced kohlrabi that can be eaten and fished, and there is a rich sesame oil vinegar sour smell floating all over the house, which is really enough to spoil the scenery. Where is the Xiaoxiang Pavilion, it is clearly the kitchen of Liu Sister-in-law.
Let's first look at this fire meat cabbage soup, not to say that it is not good, Yuan Ming of the Qing Dynasty also praised the fire meat cabbage soup in the "Suiyuan Food List":
"Fire meat is ham, preferably produced in Jinhua, Zhejiang, Beijing cabbage is also famous in the sea, cabbage stir-fried or bamboo shoots can also be simmered, ham slices simmered, chicken soup can also be simmered."
The "Qingbei Banknote" also says:
"Cabbage is best simmered in sliced ham and chicken soup."
It was just that Daiyu's spleen and stomach were weak, and such a big meat and greasy thing was obviously inappropriate for her depressed state of mind and sick and weak body at that time.
The 38th time in the novel writes about the crab feast, Dai Yu only "ate a little crab", he "felt a slight pain in his heart"; the 49th time the author directly said through the mouth of Bao Chao that Dai Yu was not suitable for big fish and big meat:
Your sister Lin is weak, eating (venison) does not digest, otherwise he also loves to eat.
However, after eighty times, Dai Yu did not refuse to be meatless and unhappy when he came to ham meat and shrimp meat, and he did not mind a pot of chaotic stew. For her weak sick body, whether it was herself or the purple crane who had always been as delicate as a hair, they ignored it, and drank soup and ate meat in a big bowl.
This is not only a subversion and destruction of the image of the sentimental and sickly Lin sister carefully created by the author in the first eighty times, but also does not meet the minimum dietary requirements of the patient, that is, the diet should be light during the disease.
Looking at this spiced kohlrabi, it is enough to listen to this tacky name without beauty. Of course, when we say this here, we do not mean to disparage the spiced kohlrabi in the slightest, but only to say that she is not suitable for Daiyu.
Spiced kohlrabi is a traditional dish in Suqian, Jiangsu Province, which originated in the early years of the Ming Dynasty. It also has two nice names, one is Zhengde coriander and the other is Qianlong coriander. The scientific name of kohlrabi is also good, called mustard greens, which were introduced to the mainland from the western region during the Han Dynasty, because the head of the dish is large and round, so it is called by the common name of kohlrabi.
Five spices refers to the five spices added during the pickling process of kohlrabi, namely peppercorns, peppercorns, star anise, cinnamon, and fennel. The method of marinating kohlrabi is to mix the fine salt with the powdered mixture of these five spices and vinegar, and then put a layer of spices and a layer of kohlrabi into the altar and seal it, and it can be eaten after one month. The marinade is golden in color and crisp in taste.
In the novel, it is written that Dai Yu eats five-spice kohlrabi, and actually eats it with vinegar, which is obviously unreasonable, because this spiced kohlrabi itself has vinegar, and then there are various seasonings, Dai Yu actually has to mix sesame oil and vinegar, and the taste of this Dai Yu must be heavy. Moreover, such a spicy, heavy salt, and greasy thing, even Baoyu couldn't stand it, and Yu Daiyu's delicate body was of course even more unsuitable.
Second Master Bao said: The vegetarian dishes for dinner should be the same cool and sour things, just don't put on the sesame oil to get tired. (60th)
Not to mention Daiyu, as far as we ordinary people are concerned, we have seen eating dumplings dipped in vinegar, but this pickle is also vinegar, and we have never seen it before. Therefore, this time it is written that Dai Yu eats five-spice kohlrabi, and the real scribble is a pass, and it is a tang and abrupt beauty.
In addition, this time, the front has already explained that because Xiangyun said the words in the south, touching Daiyu's homesickness, the result is that the following actually wrote that the snow goose also specifically asked Daiyu "and our five-spiced kohlrabi from the south", how this snow goose should be how blind it is.
In fact, the masters of Jia Fu also drank soup and ate porridge on pickles, Wang Xifeng ate bird's nest porridge, accompanied by two plates of exquisite side dishes; Baoyu was beaten and wanted to eat lotus leaf small lotus soup; the 75th time jia mu ate red rice porridge, mentioning small dishes such as pepper oil and lettuce sauce, chicken marrow shoots, and wind pickled civets.
Who would have thought that after eighty times, Dai Yu would only be able to drink a bowl of rice porridge, and she would have to boil it herself, and then chew on the spiced kohlrabi brought from her home.
Where is the diet of the godlike Lin Daiyu, which is clearly a true portrayal of the daily diet of Grandma Liu of the Zhuang family.
Of course, the reason why the sequel author Gao Hu appeared in such a ridiculous and generous description is really because of the luxurious and exquisite diet of the ancient noble houses, and it is really difficult to write the true colors without experiencing it.
The family has thin land property, lives in the outskirts of Beijing, has been named Sun Shan for many scientific expeditions, and once fell to the high osprey who maintains the family's livelihood for Mr. Private School, and knows very little about the lifestyle of the real rich family, so it is natural to write a layman's words.
For example, those of us living at the bottom of society today have no way of knowing the way of life of the rich, and can only be like gao osprey, combined with our own limited life experience, random imagination and arbitrary fabrication. Woe to you!
