There are bamboo shoots all over the mountains before and after Tomb-Sweeping Day. I went to the Woods to find Brecon. On the first day, I saw that the bamboo shoots just showed a tip like a brush head from the ground. Go there every one or two days, and you will see how high it is. Light green and pink clothes are scattered on the ground. At that time, the food market was full of people selling bamboo shoots, pulling cars with walking tractors and falling to the ground like shells. As soon as people in the town buy a scooter, they cook dried bamboo shoots or clothes when they go back. I have a colleague, and his wife often cooks a dish in southern Anhui for him, marinating it with dried bamboo shoots and soybeans, and adding some peppers and sesame seeds to make it taste better. He eats sparingly, holding a small chopstick head every time and then eating a bowl of rice. I often bring his bottle and pour it down, but he can't say anything. Now that I think about it, he must cherish it in his heart. Fortunately, his wife comes once every half a month and can make up for it soon. He shared a room with me, and when his wife came, she discussed with me and said, "Hey, can you find a place to stay for two days at night?" As he spoke, he handed me the pickled bamboo shoots and tofu bottles brought by his wife. He is very generous at this time!
Tourists can't buy good dried bamboo shoots and clothes, so good people keep them for themselves. Only those who can't bite can be sold outside. The local people don't like to eat the thick and big bamboo shoots, saying that it costs oil and can't be eaten without meat. They like to eat those small whip bamboo shoots and thunder bamboo shoots, which are also called tea bamboo shoots in some places. This small bamboo shoot is cooked, and it can be fried with cabbage without astringent water. It is very delicious. Our canteen has money. When we bought it, it was half a pig, and it was salty. This dish is very simple. Peel off the bamboo shoots, but not too clean. Then cut into pieces and drain. Just put the pork belly and bacon in the pot for stew. The fragrance will come out soon, and people upstairs and downstairs say it smells good!
Another method is fish-flavored shredded pork, which should be cooked four or five times a week. Shred bamboo shoots, green peppers and Jiang Ye. Stir the shredded fat in the pan and set it aside. Then wash the pan and drain the oil. When the oil is hot, add shredded bamboo shoots, green peppers and shredded ginger. Finally, put the fried shredded pork into the mouth, and finally pour some sauce and vinegar. The master knocked on the edge of the pot with a spoon, and we outside, the "pig" he often said, were already screaming. He was watching us eat as a breeder when he started his inspection with a cigarette in his mouth: "Is it delicious?" "Well, well-not bad." "Is it so hard for you to say hello?" "Well-good-good." "tripterygium wilfordii doesn't fight for food", and finally got rid of this cook who asked for a pseudonym.
When the bamboo shoots are dry, the safflower in the field is almost soaked, and the seedlings will be planted. Birds are singing day and night in front of and behind the house. The bamboo shoots that have not been eaten on the mountain have grown into tall bamboo with a layer of white powder on it.
The best dried bamboo shoots I have ever eaten were given to me by peach blossoms. In particular, she wrote down the specific method in the bean mail: first soak the dried bamboo shoots and then tear them into filaments by hand. Don't ask why you can't cut it with a knife. Just cut it with a knife. Bamboo shoots will be stained with "iron gas". Bamboo shoots are especially easy to get the taste of other ingredients. "Menu with Garden" says that cooking is nothing more than: "What tastes comes out and what doesn't taste comes in." It seems that bamboo shoots will only be "the golden wind meets the dew and wins countless people." The torn dried bamboo shoots are drained there, and then the dried Wucheng tea is cut into filaments for later use. Finally, soak sweet potato fans. After the vermicelli is soaked, cut into sections. Then cut the green pepper into shreds. After the oil pan is heated, add the shredded pork and stir-fry the oil. Then add yellow wine and soy sauce. Then add shredded bamboo shoots and dried 50% tea, and finally add shredded green pepper and vermicelli. Stir fry a few times. Vermicelli can't be fried for a long time, and it's easy to paste. It's really amazing to taste it after cooking, and the taste is quite complicated. Eat and drink well.
There is no other recipe for cooking this dish. The first thing is to dry the bamboo shoots. The taste of bamboo shoots in southern Anhui is very different from that in western Anhui, which is a little hemp and bitter. Among the bamboo shoots in southern Anhui, the best one is "Wenshan Zheng Bamboo Shoot". Wenshan Zheng, behind Shexian County, has red sand. Last year, I went to eat an issue of Gourmet with Sanlian Weekly. Winter bamboo shoots were newly planted by their reporters from the mountains with the villagers. Stripped like a tube of ivory, there are many bamboo shoots scattered beside it. I asked the chef, "Do you want this bamboo shoot?" He said, "Yes! Don't peel the bamboo shoots too clean. It's so clean and fresh. I put the bamboo clothes in after I cut the bamboo shoots. " On that day, there was not much difference between bamboo shoots and pickled fresh bamboo shoots: bamboo shoots were simmering on the brazier and ham legs were bent inside. Because the photographer wanted to take pictures, he was not allowed to eat immediately after serving them. The plate should be padded with batik cloth and decorated with red fruits of Tianzhu. When I eat it, the temperature is already very low, and then I heat it up. In a word, I don't think it's as delicious as my own cooking.
Last spring, I went to Shexian and bought a short bamboo shoot in the vegetable market. According to the villagers who sell vegetables, they swear that they are authentic bamboo shoots. I gave it to Uncle Tian when I was in Hangzhou. Later, I asked Uncle Tian how it tasted. Uncle Tian said to eat it all at once. Enough to prove that the taste is ok. Come back from Shexian, take a taxi from the county seat to high-speed railway station. The driver's master is also a foodie, so I asked him how to identify the bamboo shoots in Zhengshan. He cocked his head and thought for a moment and said, "Ask the bamboo shoots seller in Zhengshan. There are words on the pole. For example, there are several groups of villagers asking Zhengshan. " However, he quickly denied this: "There are imitations of writing on poles now. Some shameless people came up from the mountain behind us with bamboo shoots and told people that they came to ask about the bamboo shoots in Zhengshan. Some people paste bamboo shoots with red mud from the mountains. How do you know? "
"This can only be separated when eating, and it is meaningless to separate when eating." Later, he asked me how much do you buy a catty? I said seven dollars. He said that's more like it. Get some sand and bury the bamboo shoots when you go back. Take as much as you want before the new year. After that, he gulped it down and said, "We locals have to buy dozens of kilograms a year and bury them in the sand until the New Year. After the Chinese New Year, bamboo shoots came up, and then they were eaten. " As I said this, my voice let out a loud "glug". I smiled and said, "You didn't eat in the morning, did you?" He said, "Oh, dear! I get greedy as soon as I speak. "
This year, a friend went back to southern Anhui to worship his ancestors. After the ancestor worship, he and an uncle went up the mountain to dig bamboo shoots in their room. The big bamboo shoots he brought me are also very good. One of them accidentally fell to the ground and immediately cracked. He stood by and watched while his uncle was digging bamboo shoots. His uncle sighed and said, "Oh, dear! You can't even eat food now. " He asked his uncle how he knew there were bamboo shoots here. His uncle said, you see this land is different from other places. He leaned in and took a look. It feels no different from other places. His uncle said there was a big bamboo shoot here. Please try it. He broke it in the middle with a hoe. After digging bamboo shoots, his uncle dug a few shovels of soil and poured them into woven bags and said, "Put some soil to keep fresh. This bamboo shoot is so delicate that it grows old at the sight of light. You put some soil on it, and the taste is still the same. "
People in China don't know when to start eating bamboo shoots. Anyway, Wen was a famous bamboo painter in Song Dynasty, who was famous for painting bamboo and eating bamboo shoots. Su Dongpo wrote in "The Story of Valley Literature and Paintable Bamboo": "At first, bamboo and paintable bamboo were worthless, and everyone invited them came to the door. He threw himself on the ground in disgust and scolded,' I'll take socks as if they were made.' . It can be seen from the article that throwing silk sent by others on the ground curses: "I will miss socks", which proves that the painting materials in Song Dynasty are mainly painted on silk fabrics. Later, Wen Heke went to Yangzhou as an official, where there were many bamboos. There are many natural bamboo shoots. Su Dongpo once wrote a letter to make fun of him and said, "Bamboo planting in Hanchuan is as cheap as Peng, and the axe and shovel don't forgive dragons." The material is poor and greedy, and Weibin has a thousand acres in his chest. " Coincidentally, when this letter reached Wen Heke, Wen Heke happened to burn bamboo shoots for dinner with his wife. Seeing this poem, I burst out laughing. I was not in Chen Zhou on the 20th day of the first month in the second year of Yuanfeng. On July 7th of the same year, Su Dongpo exposed calligraphy and painting in Huzhou, and saw this painting. Su Dongpo squatted down and wept bitterly.
