It is said that Cantonese people stand at the top of the meat food chain, and even "Hu Jianren" eats;
And Yunnan people are standing at the top of the vegetarian food chain, even eating other people's potted plants;
Someone else's potted plant is mint, which is a green "vegetable" that can be seen in the four seasons of Yunnan vegetable farms. If you bring a handful of mint leaves to a Yunnan person who is wandering outside, he can take you as his dearest relative; even the uncles and aunts who follow their children to the city to live in the villa will certainly not forget to plant a nest of mint in their yard.
How to distinguish whether this person in Yunnan is a Yunnan person who is eight hundred or not is also very simple, you let him read the word "mint", the pronunciation is "bò he" must be Yunnan people, pronounced "báo hé", must be foreigners.
The climate of Yunnan basically belongs to the subtropical plateau monsoon type, and the three-dimensional climate characteristics are remarkable, so the diet is more important. As an ingredient of the same origin as medicine and food, Chinese medicine believes that peppermint tastes spicy, cool, into the lungs, has the effect of evacuating wind and heat, clearing the head of the liturgy, and thinning the liver. Speaking of which, Yunnan people are really little geniuses in the field of dietary therapy.
Yunnan has very high-quality beef and mutton, you can see a beef and mutton rice noodle shop on the street, the soup carefully boiled with large bones, add blanched rice noodles, put a few mint leaves, the temperature of the soup makes the mint leaves in a semi-broken state, which can remove the fishy smell of the meat and also have a special fragrance.
And beef also has a fairy way to eat, that is, to make beef with sauce, cut into thick slices wrapped in mint leaves rolled up, with a sour and spicy dipping sauce, immediately reborn, fragrant and sour and appetizing.
Of course, in the restaurant of Yunnan cuisine, there is also a "raw fried pork ribs", which is to be fried twice, the first time with a small fire, after becoming soft, you can fish out and spare. The ribs are marinated and refrigerated overnight, and when fried until they change color, add the fried mint once until the ribs turn golden brown and fish out. With the blessing of mint, the ribs taste more tender and refreshing, and the fried mint leaves are as crisp as seaweed, and the bite is clicking and clicking, and the fragrance is amazing!
