You can't make a salted fish, because even if you turn over, it is still a salted fish. This phrase, which was once popular on the Internet, actually means that we are born as human beings, we have to work hard and struggle unceasingly, and we can't lie on the chopping board like a salted fish, waiting for the sword of destiny to be slashed. But an discovery by archaeologists has made the salted fish really "turn over" and turn into a cultural relic. Let me reveal the secrets to you.
After the rescue excavation and detailed assessment of the expert group, it was determined that the underground was indeed an ancient tomb, the time was in the middle and late period of the Warring States, about 2,400 years ago, and it is of immeasurable significance to have such an ancient tomb for many years. In the cemetery, there are not only large main coffins, but also painted wooden figurines, although they are only forty centimeters high, but they are depicted in exquisite portraits, and even earrings.
However, the most attractive cultural relic is that inside the Nanmu rafter board, there are actually four dried fish, and later, nine dried fish were found in the coffin, a total of thirteen dried fish, they look like salted fish, but they span thousands of spring and autumn. Experts carefully put these dried fish, placed in a special box for sealing fragile products, immediately brought back to the research room, began a serious study, after cleaning up the dust, extracted part of the tissue for observation, they found that these dried fish have been pickled, after the initial determination of the name of the dried fish, the next job is to study the species of the fish, at this time, an old expert held up the glasses and said: "Isn't this the Yang dried fish?" ”
Yang dried fish, is a common special cuisine in Jingzhou, Hubei and other places, the most important step, is the natural drying, of course, before this need to use salt and other materials to penetrate the fish salt, the water is completely forced out. Whether the dried fish is done well enough, the most important way to evaluate is whether the fishy smell can be completely removed, and a perfect dried fish can make people who do not eat fish and hate the fishy smell also eat.
After listening to the introduction of the old experts, the experts began to study the thirteen dried fish more comprehensively and deeply, and people were surprised to find that although the knife work of these dried fish was not the same when making, but the appearance was very beautiful, some were cut open from the belly of the fish, some were pulled up from the back of the fish, and even from the mouth of the fish to start the knife directly, it can be seen that the people at that time knife work was already very powerful, as for the degree of air drying, there is no need to study, but more than two thousand years have not been corrupted, you know that their production process must be very precise, The natural air drying process is also perfect. During the Warring States period, people's treatment of fish and meat was not much different from that of modern people thousands of years later, which shows that some of the skills of the ancients may not be inferior to that of modern people today.
Through the study of these dried fish, experts not only know the Warring States period, the general diet of human beings, and the way of handling ingredients, but also from the perspective of tombs, let us have a deeper understanding of that period of history, provide physical proof of the living conditions of human beings at that time, and let us have a more comprehensive understanding and understanding of history.
