In last night's class, the teacher commented on the food homework.
As I was talking, a picture suddenly popped up with my name written in big letters on it.
I was shocked when I first read it. Later, when I discovered that it was not a negative teaching material, I felt secretly happy: Hehe, someone finally appreciates it (cough, please bear with me for a while). As a foodie, although I am not qualified to eat all the delicacies from all over the world, delicious food
, always brings me a good mood.
But I am a very strange person. The more magnificent the hotel, the richer and more luxurious the meal, the less full I feel.
Just looking at the big fish and meat, and the eye-catching presentation, I felt full for a long time. Then, I drank a few mouthfuls of soup with various seasonings, ate a few green vegetables, and touched the meat a little, and I was full.
Eight points.
Then put down the chopsticks, or count the rice grains slowly and leisurely.
So, if you see me eating out, please don’t wonder why I am so thin.
However, I’ll tell you quietly, I’m not in a bad mood when I’m eating alone at home.
In fact, I am a lazy person.
And as a lazy person who has to cook and eat by himself every day, wash the dishes after eating, and be responsible for taking out the garbage after eating, it is not easy to eat well.
When I'm depressed, I often regard eating as a troublesome thing, disgusting and resisting. I don't want to touch the chopsticks when others have prepared them in front of me, let alone do it myself.
However, when I have to brace myself up, cook a meal for myself, and put it on the dining table, ready to enjoy it, I feel surprisingly helpless and irritable about the food I cooked with my own hands.
The ground became calm.
Therefore, I often complain to my friends, such as why people need to eat, and is there a medicine that can prevent me from eating forever after taking one pill?
By that time, the nagging just now disappeared.
Therefore, I always feel that maybe cooking a meal quietly can help relax my mood.
For example, when cooking rice, you have to consider how much rice and water to put in. In order to balance nutrition, or to look good and increase appetite, you may add some miscellaneous grains, such as black rice, cut sweet potatoes, potato cubes, etc. on top, think
For health preservation, you can add wolfberry, Codonopsis pilosula, etc.
Such a bowl of steamed rice is brightly colored and your appetite will come up immediately.
Another example: green vegetables.
Should it be stir-fried or served in soup, minced with garlic, or chopped into pieces and stir-fried with meat, while the leaves are used to make soup?
Or even dice it all into porridge?
With a handful of green vegetables in hand, you will have countless imaginations.
Finally, make it the way you want based on the materials you have on hand, your appetite that day, and your mood.
As you eat, you will feel satisfied that you are capable.
Of course, there is also fish and meat.
This is the most important dish in home cooking. You must update the recipe frequently and practice more methods. Otherwise, you will easily get bored and eat the same dish every day.
So if I want something greasy, I'll make pork trotters with ginger, braised pork, sometimes ginger duck, if I want something light, I'll make tomato pork ribs, or steamed fish.
Even if you are simply making instant noodles, the process of tearing open the box, unpacking the ingredients, pouring in boiling water, sealing the lid, sitting down and waiting, still feels like a sacred thing.
.
At this moment, what you feel is awe for life, gratitude to the Creator, and a sense of satisfaction in life.
However, as someone who still has certain requirements for food, instant noodles are usually my last resort.
As a Cantonese girl, I am actually used to making myself a bowl of soup most of the time.
Then, in the fragrant kitchen, pick up the meat and bones, pour it into a hot pot, add salt, soy sauce, vinegar, chili garlic, stir-fry over high heat for a while, then reduce the juice over low heat, put it on the plate, and blanch a few vegetables, like this,
Meat, vegetables, soup and rice are all there.
? There will always be unsatisfactory things in life, whether you like it, be sad, eat, drink or have diarrhea, it is inevitable.
Maybe we can't control our destiny, but no matter how bad the situation is, no matter how bad the mood is, or even if we are just one person, please remember to eat well.
