When I was a child, I always ate the food from the firewood stove. Later, I gradually used the gas stove and rice cooker. Now I occasionally go to my relatives' house to eat rice cooked in a firewood stove and iron pot. The yellow-brown rice cooker is particularly fragrant and chewy, and the rice cooker can't cook it. It should be the material of the pot and the way of cooking, so that the rice cooked in the firewood stove iron pot is more fragrant. It is especially warm to add firewood to the firewood stove in winter.
In recent years, there are indeed many special restaurants in the city, among which cooking with wood stoves is very popular all over the world. Why do the dishes cooked by firewood stoves taste better? Is it really because our mouths have changed? Some people say that there are two reasons why the food cooked by rural firewood stoves is delicious. First, the pot is different, and second, the firewood is more prosperous. First of all, the firewood stoves in rural areas are obviously different from the pots in cities. They are basically made of pig iron. These pots are bigger and deeper. Secondly, there is more space under the firewood stove, and the fire burning wood will fill most of the bottom of the pot, so that the pot can be heated evenly. Moreover, the firewood is relatively prosperous, and the fried dishes do not need to be over-fried, which fixes the original flavor of the dishes. In addition, there is no hood in the wood stove, which will not take away the original flavor of the food and make it feel more natural.
Of course, some people say that cooking with firewood stoves is delicious mainly because we are tired of eating the delicacies in the city, but suddenly we are going to the countryside to eat the dishes cooked with firewood stoves, and it feels very fresh. Plus I eat less, so I feel delicious. In addition, some people explained that the dishes cooked by rural firewood stoves are delicious because they are used to eating since childhood and have an exclusive memory of the dishes cooked by firewood stoves. Because living conditions are getting better and better now, no matter how we cook or cook, we use electrical appliances or natural gas. Even in rural areas, the food cooked by firewood stoves is very unpalatable, so some people praise it for its delicious taste, just because of a memory of the past.
people are nostalgic, and what is lost always feels precious. Now that there is no earthen stove, I always think that the food cooked by earthen stove is more fragrant. Just say cooking. We all know that the rice pressed by pressure cooker is more fragrant, because the aroma of rice is gathered in the pot and does not escape, so the rice is fragrant. However, the rural earthen stoves cook rice, open the pot and boil, and the fragrance of the rice has already dispersed. Will it be more fragrant? It's just that people at that time were satisfied with having a full meal. Unlike people nowadays, they are full of greasy food, which is not delicious, and that is not delicious.
