Reading "Bean Juice" written by Mr. Wang Zengqi last night, I couldn't help but think of this topic today.
There is a verse cloud in the "Yandu Small Food Miscellaneous": "The dregs can actually be made into porridge, the flavor of the old pulp is thin, no distinction between men and women sit together, and the palatable salt is one Ou" is talking about this bean juice.
Speaking of this bean juice, it is also a strange flower in the diet. Old Beijingers say that life is inseparable from bean juice, but outsiders describe it as swill water, only because this bean juice "sour with a strange taste of rotten", in short, people who like to drink it as their favorite, people who are not used to drinking it immediately vomit when they mention it.

Speaking of bean juice, let's first talk about its "past life and this life".
According to historical records, bean juice first appeared in the Liao Dynasty. Liao is the Establishment of the Khitan people, the Khitan people are a nation on horseback, eat a large amount of meat, and like milk and grease, so the eating habits are not conducive to digestion, they will also drink tea to relieve grease, but the tea trade is restricted by the Central Plains, once there is a war, it will immediately break the file, and bean juice came into being in this environment. In the Song Dynasty, it became a popular food for the people. In the Qing Dynasty, he entered the court. According to records, every year from September to the following summer of the old calendar, the two dining rooms of the Qing Palace Imperial Life made bean juice, and the empress drank bean juice to relieve the grease.

Bean juice is actually a food made with mung bean starch or pink scraps.
After scalding and grinding beans, the mung beans are beaten into a pulp, and then, poured into the container to ferment, the precipitated is starch, the middle part is the pulp, and the floating bean juice is.
This work is generally done by a teacher, because only the fermented bean juice will have that sour and rotten taste, on the contrary, if the fermentation is not good, there is a smell of raw beans.
<h1 class= "pgc-h-arrow-right" > the boiling process of bean juice</h1>
Boiling bean juice must be mixed with old pulp, mixed with good bean juice with water to boil, and when the bean juice is almost ripe, then add a little raw bean juice, after such a "smashing", the taste of bean juice will really come out.
The boiled bean juice is dull in color, green in the gray, and there is a little foam on the surface.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > how to drink bean juice</h1>
Ordinary people drink bean juice, whether hot or cold, and drink it when they are served. In fact, the entrance of cold bean juice is swill flavor, hot bean juice is very different, sweet in the sour, sour with astringency, other flavor. The bubbling heat is just right. Paired with two crispy charred rings and a plate of small pickles, it is called a five-flavor complete.
Bean juice is rich in protein, vitamin C, crude fiber and sugar, the most suitable for winter and spring, has the effect of dispelling heat, clearing heat, warming the sun, strengthening the spleen and so on.

The coke circle is commonly known as the "little oil ghost". The scorching ring of the top product is dark yellow in color, the oil is shiny and smooth, the size of the bowl mouth, shaped like a bracelet, and the taste is crispy and oily. Su Dongpo once wrote a poem praising: "The thin hands are rubbed into jade trees, the green oil is fried to make tender yellow and deep, the night comes and the spring sleep is not light or heavy, and the beautiful people wrap their arms around gold."
Don't look big, but the production is very cumbersome, so generally everyone goes to the store to buy. The famous Beijing scorch circle is the Jiaoquan Junwang, the master of Nanlaishun. His fried charred rings are well-proportioned, crispy and crumbling when touched.
Spicy pickle shredded is made by chopping mustard greens in a sauce and pouring chili oil.
The fireworks in the world are the most soothing to the hearts of mortals. In late autumn, a bowl of bean juice, two scorched rings, and a plate of spicy pickles, sour, sweet, spicy and salty, only the bitter taste is missing, how can it not make people feel warm?
