Anti-epidemic green olives

The epidemic eased slightly, a friend came to the home as a guest, poured a cup of olive juice for her, after drinking it, commented that its taste was quiet, far away and long, and asked me where I bought it.

Of course...... It was adjusted by myself.

Very bitter, a little mellow: this is the life I have tasted from olive juice

▲ I don't have good utensils here, and I didn't look so good when I tuned it out, so I borrowed the picture and the taste should be the same

Olive juice is popular among Chinese drinks, and I always feel that it is a matter of time. This is a kind of evocative, but also with a little oriental good, its aroma is rich and no kitsch taste, unique and no lonely taste, especially, you tune it yourself, the taste naturally does not have to be rigid, each family has its own taste, just as the life of each family has its own taste.

▲ Olives, in my impression, have a little extraordinary meaning

I remember reading the Iliad, and one of Troy's generals used a tomahawk with an olive wood handle, and at that time there was a sense of longing and mystery for this plant. At that time, the olives I saw were all pickled, and I didn't know what it looked like when it was fresh. Talking to a teacher, the gentleman opened the cup, pointed inside, and said, "Oh, this is it." ”

Mr. Water Cup is that kind of large glass bottle, because of the attention to health, from time to time to add fat sea, goji berries, American ginseng, etc., that day is a green fruit, just can answer my question.

It turns out that green fruit is olive.

Indeed, in the Compendium of Materia Medica, olives are a medicine that clears the heat and protects the throat. It's just that our teacher's kind of drinking method Shanghai friends can't look at - in the eyes of Shanghainese, the middle drum between the two tips of the olive is the image of the yuanbao, and you make the yuanbao tea, isn't it equivalent to throwing money into the water? This is not a good mouthful.

During the anti-epidemic period, Lao Sa decided to talk about this olive, which is very simple, since it is medicine, there is an obligation to fight the epidemic, so writing this "Anti-epidemic Green Olive" is of course a correct topic.

And this thing once made Lao Sa play off, thinking that if he didn't write it, he couldn't pass it in his heart.

How could it be played off?

This has to start with Fuzhou.

That year, when I went to Fuzhou to shoot a film, I saw that the streets were full of olives, with a wide variety of varieties, salted candy and different tastes, but each one was quite delicious. The witch of the old Sa family was a good snack, so I bought some for her, and of course I ate it myself to relieve my hunger.

Then when I arrived at the outskirts of Fuzhou, I found that the village was full of olive trees, and the locals directly sold green fruits, called sandalwood olives, which were fragrant.

Only then did we know that our country is also rich in olives, and it is not the same thing as Troy's olives. The Olives of european origin are olives, which are used for oil pressing, and there is no taste when eaten (which is often found in Western food). It is also because of the high oil content, olive wood oil and fine texture, hard and elastic is not easy to be cut, so it will be taken into a weapon, the status is equivalent to China's ash rod. Our olives are only fragrant.

Regarding this olive, there is also a local joke, saying that the daughter-in-law of Fuzhou married in Shanghai, and the people in small places tied their hands and feet when they went to the big places, and only dared to take a few olives to eat when eating. As a result, when the mother-in-law played mahjong, she still said that the daughter-in-law's was not - the countrymen's mouth was sharp, there was everything on the table, and she just picked an olive to eat.

The daughter-in-law felt aggrieved and told her father that she had been bullied. The father was a delicate person, and after inquiring about it, he suddenly realized that he invited his mother to come to the house as a guest. When my mother got out of the car and looked at it, she was full of olives at the mouth of the village, and she couldn't help but be stunned.

▲ At that time, olives were good things in Shanghai, put on the dinner plate for embellishment, who thought that Fuzhou was so much here that it was almost used to feed pigs?

Green olives smell fragrant, the taste is somewhat bitter, directly eat I am not very absorbable, local friends can also understand, so they switched to drink olive juice, the raindrops outside the window on the bluestone slab clanging, ice cold olive juice in Fuzhou's rain, is an indelible impression.

In this way, when I returned home, I had some thoughts, especially when I wrote until late at night, and I thought that there was a glass of olive juice in my hand, and the taste of the world was clear.

Taste,Soul.

So I bought a little from the Internet, drank it, and bought a little more. It's just that at that time, I bought it in bottles, and I always felt that it was almost a feeling.

▲ Just like the peeled mangosteen always has to be packed with a porcelain plate, the taste in a plastic bag is said to be the same, always a point worse

On this day, I suddenly found that in addition to selling Fujian olive juice on the Internet, there are also olive juice sellers in Yunnan, that is, the so-called "Yunnan olive juice" is also. Lao Sa was curious, and bought two bottles as soon as he raised his hand, thinking that it would be good to change the taste and taste it. However, it seems that because of the distance, this Dian olive was delivered to the home in a week.

This temper of Lao Sa had caused him a lot of trouble. Taking olives as an example, once found that the largest olive in China is "Chaozhou black olive", he decided to set a bottle on his own initiative, ready to experience the feeling similar to the lychee king. I didn't expect to send it to my home to find that this olive was used to make pickles, and I really couldn't get used to this taste, and I was accused by my family for a long time.

Only afterwards did I know that this kind of large black olive was not for the purpose of eating meat, but for the purpose of taking the core to make micro-carvings.

▲ "Nuclear Boat" is made from this olive core

However, the country is easy to change, the nature is difficult to move, and on the issue of Yunnan olives, Lao Sa once again made the mistake of making decisions in the head.

Unlike the olive juice in Fujian, yunnan olive juice is packed in a flat green bottle (in order to avoid being advertised, it is not posted photos), and the first feeling is that it is not like a drink, but like something studied by a scientific research institute. In particular, the inside is still layered, the upper part is turquoise juice, and the lower part is gray-green powder.

Later, I learned that the Yunnan olive juice was actually ground throughout the olive, and the olive core would not be taken out.

Also, how to do packaging this year? Selling is not important, maybe friends in Yunnan just like to play a little performance art.

So, I poured a small cup and took a sip to taste. I also thought that the taste might be like Chinese medicine.

Oh, this stuff isn't like Chinese medicine.

Where is Chinese medicine so tasteless?

Just touching my tongue, the bitterness filled my mouth at once, and the surface of my tongue was almost instantly numb. To be sure, I had never drunk such an unfriendly drink before, including Laoshan White Flower Snake Grass Water. No matter how hot it is, this Yunnan olive juice is really not a normal drink, perhaps, people are selling it as medicine?

▲ Olives are originally a kind of medicine

However, just when I was about to give up, a very beautiful taste appeared in my mouth - as if there was suddenly a pool of glycol under the base of the tongue and a clear spring that instantly filled the entire mouth, which was a little intoxicating.

I couldn't help but drink a little more.

It was shock bitterness and repulsion again, and then it was still clear.

The feeling of bitterness and sweetness is about ten to one, but the only one makes you want to stop, just like those little boys in the love season, giving people bags to take back, sending flowers to bring allergies, being abused again and again, but will be happy to sleep for a moment after a thousand baidu.

I often hear people say that olives are bitter first and then sweet, but this time I finally realized it.

Talking to a friend who had returned from Yunnan, he squinted his eyes and smiled and nodded, saying that I had realized.

However, when he took a sip, he immediately changed his face, stuck out his tongue, and looked at me suspiciously—a feeling that seemed strange.

At this time, I remembered to take a good look at the packaging and instructions, and noticed the sentence: "Add water N times diluted to drink." ”

Well, it turns out that this is condensed.

▲ The national army said, this TMD is a misunderstanding

Very bitter, a little mellow: this is the life I have tasted from olive juice

▲ Well, now that I have finally touched the temper of this thing, I should first pour a little original juice and then add some sugar

▲ The key is to put a certain amount of honey, and then stir in cold water to mix well

Very bitter, a little mellow: this is the life I have tasted from olive juice

▲ Anti-epidemic green olive juice is mixed in this way

Very bitter, a little mellow: this is the life I have tasted from olive juice

▲ The stagnant drop at the mouth of the cup adds clarity

Interested friends can make a little, drink it themselves, ask others to drink, are very good.

It's just that Lao Sa has a problem, and he will still take a sip of the original juice from time to time to experience the backlash of that bitter sweetness - after all, this is a unique taste that Yunnan people have never felt.

Lo and behold, people are such a.
