the description of the original food of the Water Margin

In the law of eating, flavor is more important than everything. China people have never tied themselves to a boring list of spices. With the understanding of food, people are constantly trying to find inspiration for seasoning.

the 8-mile water margin in the southwest of Shandong province was called Liangshan in ancient times. It is a place where heroes live, and the mixing of various people has formed a unique atmosphere and pattern, which also provides opportunities for all kinds of hotels that cook, kill and set fire to take root.

The Zhugui Hotel, located near Shui Bo, is one of the best. The water margin was formed in the breach of the Yellow River in the Five Dynasties, with a huge water potential, and the sky is high and the emperor is far away. China people believe that water can nourish people's spirituality and consciousness. This is like the shaping of tofu by water. There is an indescribable connection between the two. Zhu Gui, the owner of the hotel, specializes in this kind of spicy fried tofu.

In protein, soybean food is the only plant food that can compete with meat. This is quite perfect for the evil monk who often casts spells and needs to be vegetarian.

The ancients in China praised tofu for its harmony and virtue. People who eat tofu can willingly give their own baggage and gold and silver, while people who make tofu also know how to "let nature take its course" when going downhill.

however, the secret of this spicy fried tofu in Zhugui Hotel lies not in tofu, but in the addition. In Zhu Gui's memory, to make tofu, it is essential that it is hot and spicy. There were no peppers in the Song Dynasty, but we had our own local seasoning, cornus. The whole Liangshan people, like cornus, are tenacious, resolute, ruthless and terminating.

the presence of spicy food is enough to confuse the taste of guests. This gives Zhu Gui room to add materials.

Every time a guest orders, before serving, Mr. Zhu Gui always dives into the back kitchen alone, screens around, carefully pours the ancestral secret seasoning-antiperspirant-hidden in his arms into the tofu, and then carefully mixes it.

this spicy fried tofu can not only satisfy the appetite of the guests, but also gain an extra dark and sweet sleep. Dai Zong, a famous vegetarian in the Song Dynasty, once passed Liangshan, and he was full of praise for it.
