The poet Yu Guangzhong once said: "If I travel, I will never be with Li Bai, because he is unrealistic and irresponsible;" I won't be with Du Fu, he is too bitter, haha, I'm afraid he is too serious; If you choose one, it will be good to be with Su Shi. He can be a good friend. He is a very interesting person. " ? Su Shi is not only an interesting "traveling companion", but also a gourmet.
? In the diet of Song Dynasty, mutton was expensive, pork was cheap, and fish was cheaper than pork. Su Dongpo was an official in Beijing and had free mutton, but after being exiled to Huangzhou, he was poor and had to eat fish to satisfy his hunger.
Su Shi is not only good at tasting delicious food, but also good at making delicious food. Today he sent us a dish, Dongpo fish soup. He is very proud of the skill of this dish.
When I was in Huangzhou, I ate his fish soup, and all the guests didn't praise him for his delicious food. But this praise may be because I was too poor and hungry.
Now he is the mayor of Hangzhou. Invite a group of guests who have eaten all the delicious food in the world to taste it. Everyone still unanimously praised his fish soup for its excellent taste, which was not made by ordinary chefs.
Today, many of us like Dongpo, not only because of his wonderful poems, but also because of his positive and optimistic attitude towards life. Perhaps it is the original intention of "playing alone is better than playing with others". Every time Su Dongpo tastes delicious food or creates a delicious food, he will write down an article.
Lin Yutang described Su Shi's cooking method of Dongpo fish in Su Dongpo Biography. "Choose a carp first, wash it with cold water, put some salt on it, and stuff it into cabbage heart. Then put it in a frying pan, put a few chopped green onion, and fry it all the time without turning it over. When it is half cooked, put a few slices of ginger, and then pour in a little salty radish juice and a little wine. When it is almost cooked, put a few pieces of orange peel and serve it while it is hot. "
This weekend, we might as well follow Su Dongpo's recipe and try to make a Dongpo fish soup to share with our families!
