I miss a dish cooked by my mother, that is, stewed beans with ribs. Every time I come home from a different place, my mother will help me cook this dish. Every time I eat this dish, I feel that I am back to my childhood and that unrestrained era.
However, every time I go home now, I can't hide my parents' gray sideburns, and my heart will be inexplicably sad. Parents have worked hard for their children all their lives, but children can't always be with them to honor their parents. I really feel my weakness and powerlessness.
When I was young, I had a warm home, with my father, mother, sister and me. It is not easy for a family of four to worry because they can't eat, because dad's work is enough for our family to live. At that time, because I was the age of growth and development, my mother would help me cook that stewed pork ribs and beans every week after coming home from middle school. She said that bone soup can supplement many trace elements and make me grow tall and strong, so as to safeguard my parents' future.
I have to admit, my mother's ribs stewed with beans are really delicious. Once I took my classmates to our house for dinner. After dinner, my classmates said to me: Your mother's cooking is great, especially this ribs stewed with beans, which is really delicious. The stewed bones are soft and delicious. Even the big bone soup has a bad smell. I really want to eat such delicious food next time. I naturally agreed with him and asked my mother to cook this dish for him next time.
After going to college, it will be too far from home. Our home is in the south, but the colleges I choose are all in the northernmost area, and I usually go home once every six months. It's easy to eat stewed beans with ribs on campus, but it's hard to eat the taste cooked by my mother, because the meals cooked in colleges and universities are really hard to swallow.
I often call my mother on campus to complain about the terrible food in the university cafeteria. My mother always smiles and says to me on the phone: If it's hard to swallow, you should eat more. Don't starve my dear son. When the child comes home from college, mom will let you cook your favorite stewed beans with ribs. Every time I hear my mother say this, I will be happy, because I really miss my mother's lobster sauce ribs.
Although I have finished the stewed pork ribs and beans cooked by my mother for many years, I will never get tired of it, just like I can eat jiaozi wrapped by my mother for more than a week, which is my heartfelt love. If I eat more, I will be more supportive, but I will never be tired.
Now that I'm engaged in my work, I have less time to go home. Every time I go home, my mother will definitely cook my favorite ribs and stewed beans. I really miss that dish and the smell of my mother.
