From the beginning of my memory, our staple food has been small rice. And since I was a child, I have thought that the whole of China is based on millet as a staple food. For most people in the north and south who eat rice as the main food, I feel that our Hebei Ningjin County is very different. Isn't it a little bit of inexplicable comedy? hehe
I was born in 85 years, that would be a dime is a huge amount of money for us, I feel that we can buy a lot of things, including white rabbit milk candy, sugar melon, melon seeds, is all the "delicious head".
Of course, this is a situation of money, and most of them are replaced by small rice, probably most people will ask me how to replace "delicious head" with millet?
In the days of daily life with steamed buns, millet rice, and Chinese cabbage, we are all making a fuss about small rice, when the radish is cooked, the mother will put carrots in the boiled millet, yellow, red, drink rice and eat a piece of radish, sweet and silky and fragrant and sweet, and can nourish the liver and eyes.
When the fire is not happy, get some sweet potatoes, that will be a lot of sweet potatoes, firewood is the same as the white silk line, eat a piece of sweet potato vomit for half a day, then you will think that sweet potatoes are so delicious if there is no such firewood.
When the "north melon" comes down, we will also add pieces of north melon to the rice, and the sticky millet of the north melon is mixed together to have a different flavor.
The only thing that is the other is peanuts, the peanuts collected at home are dried and put away, and I want to eat fried, fried, and save trouble or put them in the small rice. This is the most eaten in the four seasons of the year, and I heard that there is a beauty and blood nourishment effect.
At that time, our northern carrots, sweet potatoes, squash, and peanuts were all grown locally by us, and there was no foreign one at all. So it's all natural, and the taste is very pure.
In that era of monotonous life, all the electrical appliances were not in our place, eating every day, going to school, walking the streets and alleys after school, we were an endless plain, no mountains and no water... Think about it, there is nothing to play, but when I was a child, every day was so happy, but in just a dozen years, houses, clothes, cars, food, TV and mobile phones... Everything has changed dramatically, and the only constant is still the small rice I like to eat, a variety of flavors. Although the variety changes does not change my love for it. Because it has been with me for more than thirty years....
Do you have such a "food" that you have liked since you were a child? Everyone is welcome to talk about it.
