I have been to many so-called "ancient towns", cotton shops, blacksmith shops, shaved hair shops are almost standard, but pickle shops, ham workshops are rare, dark and stale ham workshops can feel the condensation of time ah?
The local people know ham, must be called "Jinhua ham", but Yiwu people are not happy, because according to the genealogy of the news, it was invented by Zong Ze, a famous general of the Southern Song Dynasty. Although it is "anti-gold famous legs", it is better to call "golden legs" than to call "righteous legs", besides, it depends on how you yiwu cattle, but since ancient times, it has always been under the management of Jinhua Province, and there are more things that cannot be justified. In addition, Dongyang people are also very frustrated, because the best Jinhua ham is produced in Dongyang Shangjiang Village, which is known as "Jiang Leg" in ancient times.
Grandma gave me a joke that a person was doing business in the capital and missed ham in his hometown, so he sent a letter to ask for it, because he could not write, he drew a ham pattern, and as a result, he sent a rice scoop. This is what Grandma said more than thirty years ago when she was cooling off on a summer night, and the intention was to tell me to write correctly. Grandma is a Dongyang native, an old intellectual who does not smile, but when it comes to her hometown, she is still full of pride and happiness.
Speaking of ham, there is also Yunnan's "Xuanwei ham", which was carried forward by Deng Gong's father-in-law in modern times, and was also made into canned food and exported to Southeast Asia. I have eaten Xuan leg, the shape is very strong, not as hard as gold legs, the taste is between gold legs and bacon, but the aroma is far less than golden legs. In addition, famous legs such as Jiangsu's such as Jiangsu's Ruyao ham and Jiangxi's Anfu ham, I still have no chance to taste, a few years ago, "China on the tip of the tongue" won the red Noden ham, is the use of salt or pork good, I did not understand, tomorrow online shopping taste. And the north of the Huai River does not seem to produce ham, is it a dry climate? Otherwise, when the good han of Liangshan robbed the law field, Li Kui would grab the two hams and cut melons and cut vegetables.
However, the color and flavor of the ham are absolutely consistent, in line with the aesthetic of the ingredients, the color is golden, the flakes are like red clouds, the smell is fragrant, and the two cheeks of the chew are fragrant. The ham is usually placed like a beautiful jade body, and when it is placed vertically, it is like a hot fire-breathing girl splitting her legs, and when it is hung, it is a bloody "sadomasochism".
Although the ham is beautiful, it can only be used as a supporting role in the food field, rarely eaten alone, and only used for seasoning and freshness. It is really troublesome to deal with, and the taste of a little clam is greatly reduced, so the north eats sauce meat, and the south is popular for bacon. Liang Shiqiu's "steamed ham" (ham cut into half an inch, poured with flower carving Shao wine, steamed violently on fire), Hunan famous dish "honey juice fire party" (smeared with honey, often 24 hours of fire and fierce fire) are considered to be ham as the protagonist, but even if it is as hungry as me, I have no patience to try. However, I still want to hang an old ham on the beam, and when I am idle, I will slash it, the smell of strange fragrance will fill the room, the so-called smoke of the years, and the taste of life will come. Throwing a ham claw in a radish and simmering it into milk is a breeze.
Europe and the United States also have ham, known as ham, bacon, there are also called "salami", but most of them are mixed with starch, additives of ham sausage role, do not eat it. The Italian Parma team, with strong leg skills, also produces the famous "Parma ham", with a year and a grade of origin. It is a kind of fermented ham that is eaten raw, the claws and inner bone have been removed, and it is eaten with shavings and bread, or eaten with cantaloupe, that is, sweet and salty and wet. Served with red wine or cheese, fermentation and oxidation reaction, stale to stale, the taste is bursting. There are also imitations of "yi leg" in China, and the taste color is a little lighter.
Italian legs are actually sold in hue, but also more as a side dish, the most gorgeous is the top Spanish Iberian ham, packed in a black guitar bag, with a silver ring snake-like rope tied, with a 5J label. It is said that the use of a certain place of black pigs, is strictly eaten acorns to grow up, the flesh has an acorn aroma, pickled and preserved for more than five years. This leg is actually not pickled, with less salt, relying on natural fermentation, and it is eaten raw, ensuring that it is not corrupt and delicious.
Iberian ham is extremely expensive, twenty times that of golden legs, the difference is far beyond the national football and west foot, the wife once bought one, providing long blades and wooden fixing frames for you to eat. I tried the pig knife for the first time, and I couldn't wait, the thickness was uneven, the rotten meat was not clean, and the waste was a lot.
Iberian ham is the best food I have ever eaten, fat and thin black and white with marbling, chewy, fragrant and full of grease, wind into the bone (bones are also brown), let me want to stop, in the winter will also get up downstairs to masturbate.
This actually gave me a problem, I can't reach the highest level at once, I should eat other ham first, or for the sake of ceremony, go buy wine glasses, western tableware, caviar, foie gras, stinky cheese... and find a happy day with friends. Ha! National fortune, stock luck, financial luck, peach blossom luck... Is there an end to life?
People talk about love, love talk about the year, I shake my wife, buy another one, I will certainly not eat, in the future open a bottle of twenty years old red wine, nibble a piece of ten years old ham, with your sixty years old old woman, she actually agreed.
I was overjoyed.
