In "Green Snake", Li Bihua wrote that men did not understand the style, and she said that she was really discouraged when she met such a person, "He was simply a bowl of unqualified osmanthus sugar lotus powder that was disgraced in Hangzhou - too little sugar, too little water, thick taxes, thick with taxes, and half a point is not crystal clear." Ren is no longer sympathetic to the southerners to see here also have to understand, this is to say that he is stupid! At the threshold of the birth of milky white powder into a bag of nephrite, all kinds of spirits and beauty leaked into the air, so that the remaining sacs and bubbles were knotted in the porcelain bowl, but contained a hazy sweetness, and although the eaters complained, they also implied pity and expectation - maybe the next time it was finally my turn to be good, this bowl of lotus powder was really rushed.
Li Bihua was proficient in the wind and moon, and the southerners were proficient in the starch that came from the water. In the landscape of the 9.6 million square kilometers of geopolitical wind and materials, Mongolian candidates have to ride and shoot, Yunnan candidates have to identify fungi and direct elephants to return home, and every southern child will lose at least one point in the pre-test simulation in the chong lotus powder, and even many people almost fail to pass the double first-class and 985. Isn't there a legend like that? On the night of the time node of growth, my father would light a torch and deliver the skills passed down from generation to generation to the next generation, and I also had such a summer evening, my mother looked at me who was playing muddy and wet at the water's edge, sighed, and said, "You are also a big child, you should not play like this, you have to teach you something serious." On that day, I learned to make lotus powder and became a more beginner southerner.
A series of complex steps such as digging lotus roots, washing lotus roots, cutting lotus roots, grinding, filtering, dehydrating, drying, etc., can be processed into lotus powder that we eat. © google
Nothing is necessary to use to wash the lotus powder, nothing more than bowls and spoons and water, and the elements are completely condensed in the technique itself. You have to go through a small amount of cold water to stir up the original granular powder, and no matter how you look at the bottom of the bowl at this time, you can only honestly and practically evaluate "a puddle of suspension". But the most magical magic tricks often like to take a performance step that wants to be suppressed first, the old-fashioned is old-fashioned, better than the use, the sense of suspense is tightened and hung in the air, and the dissolved lotus powder particles are a joke baggage that they throw in front of people, like a magician wants to take out an endless poker from his sleeve, but only awkwardly touches one first. I was confident, and then added boiling water into the bowl and opened, and then the steaming, the lights were radiant, the lotus powder immediately became clear and smooth, crystal clear in the bowl, just look at it to cool down, eat sweet and slag-free, let people think that it is something from the Dragon Palace.
The goodness of lotus flour lies in the fact that it has both the qualitative change effect of turning stones into gold, and all the virtues that fast food convenience food should have - good quality and low price, according to local conditions. It is extraordinary to be able to do these two things, not to mention that its punching process is so talkative, it is a playful magic show that everyone has the opportunity to carry out, delicious and fun, it is simply a small fun lottery ticket given to us on land by the River Boy Pie who takes care of Mizusawa, similar to the two dollars a piece of primary school science experiment material package at the school gate of the student era, after completing this course, you can smoothly advance to the next stage of the southern starch stage, such as throwing away the second-hand refining process and personally picking a diamond corner.
When brewing lotus powder, if the water is not boiling enough and the stirring is not timely enough, it will not become a bowl of clear "nephrite jade" in the end, but a bowl of turbid water. © google.com
Because the lotus is buried in the mud of the pond all year round, most people's imagination is always concentrated on the table, and the lack of a vivid, full of plant sense of observation, the diamond horn is very different, the flowers and leaves and fruits are on the water, clearly exposed to the river and the sun. Who hasn't fished a child born at the water's edge? The size of the wild diamond horn is small, thin and verdant, but the taste is crisp and tender, the taste is even sweeter, when catching fish and picking snails at the water's edge, if you look at the thin sticky sparse diamond leaves on the water, it is really a great joy, you have to go up to the embankment immediately, transport your legs and feet, shoot yourself home, turn over the long water scoop that Grandma used to water vegetables and return to catch The Diamond.
Those wild fruits attached to the leaves are the love of southern children in the summer season, unlike snails or shrimp and crabs that need to be handled by adults, and do not have to be sent into those pyrotechnic hearths, and do not need to make two cents to exchange for a mimi sweetness, I am completely spontaneous and spontaneous, advocating a happy adventure in the afternoon when the whole world is asleep. Poplar leaves sift the hot sunlight on people's faces, and the overly long penny is attached to a round rumbling water scoop, telling me to work the furry dirt road in the country - I really don't know how Grandma, who is obviously not tall, can operate it freely. The rice basket that was used to catch small fish overnight was placed in the small river not far in front of it, full of grass leaves of tender green wild fruits, wrapped in refreshing sweet juice, rippled in the ripples of the water, and I calculated as I walked, ready to only pick the diamond horns to taste fresh, and the stems and leaves had to be returned to the water intact, waiting for such a sweet day in the coming year.
"It looks like a boat, with its horns upturned, bones on the outside, and meat on the inside." This riddle is the best description of the diamond horn. © google.com
You feel it too, right? The joy of eating wild diamond horns is so rich that it is attached to the front of the word "wild", which implies a summer day with all the above elements, you carry a penny or drag a wooden bath bucket that is used as a boat, walking on the way to pick wild diamond horns, as if walking inside a huge dream with the sound of cicadas.
Jialing's markets are scattered along the wider streets. At the end of the summer, the farmers picked up the harvest in the fields and began to go into the city to carry out some scattered transactions, such as selling ling. The diamonds on this stall were basically ripe, large, with their coat turned bluish brown and four corners, hidden under two layers of snow-white cotton gauze. Some are crisper, biting open to reveal the red and white flesh, and the sweet water is also gushing in the palm of the hand, while others are more noodles, more powdery, and eat closer to the sweet starch. Stall owners often sit on small stools to peel ling rice to sell, occasionally stuffing a few into their mouths to eat, while beckoning customers to taste and choose their favorite purchases.
But there are also sellers who eat diamond horns to forget themselves. Once I met a very strange diamond horn stall on the side of the bridge, there were three people around the stall, all three people were peeling ling to eat, peeling endlessly, peeling out of the heart, the diamond horn shell was piled high at the foot - "Mom, this diamond is really not ugly" "That's for sure!" It must be delicious when it comes out at home!" It turned out that none of the three people were customers, and the family could not take care of the business, and the small stool that was vacated was hung on the mobile phone screen specially used for collection, and even a two-dimensional code on the interface was not, it was a change bar. The eldest daughter only slapped her legs and laughed at this time, and even said that she had forgotten to eat and forgot. So what can I do, I can only say on the spot that a pocket of fire line has joined, after all, this is the Diamond that has just been fired at home!
Because the leaves of chicken head rice are prickly on the outside and need to be peeled by hand, the price has always been high. © google.com
And Ling's front and back feet should also be in the city of chicken head rice (芡實), both of which come out of the water at the end of the summer, as Wang Zengqi said, "Chicken head rice is old, new walnuts are coming down, summer is coming to an end", soon they can catch the cool breeze of the Mid-Autumn Festival, together with fresh lotus, moon cake, lotus, vast, watery, placed on our offering table to pay homage to the moon. I always feel that this move is extremely romantic, although the moon is a good year to thank God, but take the good things from the water to offer to the moon, it is inevitable to think of "mirror flower water moon", "willing to go month by month", revealing a kind of willingness and compassion for the fulfillment, the real reunion of the moon.
However, fresh chicken head rice is often unstoppable, almost soon after the moon rises in the middle of the day, it will quietly retreat from the offering table, and then turn into a bowl of sugar water decorated with silver ear fungus at night, and stuff it into the hands of the family members who are talking about sex. Such a monkey urgent, all because of its high price and delicate, newly peeled chicken head rice is often in the market to ask for a hundred yuan a pound, although the unhulled is cheaper, but on the one hand is not easy to store, on the one hand, it is really difficult to peel, can only be early. I've tried it a few times too. After the flowering period, once the chicken head rice is closed and mature, the exposed head is pure with some fierce burrs, hard peeling is not possible, you have to use a wooden stick to roll out, squeeze out the fruit inside, and then patiently remove the hard skin outside the rice, so as to expose the snow white and tender rice flesh. Take it and boil it in boiling water, eat it in the mouth, play sticky to the extreme, it is a natural pearl ball, and it is white and smooth, with a porcelain bowl, moonlight, a soup with old rock sugar slightly yellowing, just sitting in the night with a bowl to look at it also feels deeply beautiful, difficult to pretend to be exquisite, the essence is starch And how, this is the logo that our human beings give it, the moon is on it, it must know what kind of natural and noble this should be.
