"What about Wuwei smoked duck and steamed preserved meat? These two dishes have a strong taste!"

Wu Lan looked at the two dishes near him.

Xu Weiguo smiled slightly and introduced, "The taste of Wuwei smoked duck is not strong at all. It is a traditional delicacy, belonging to the Anhui cuisine. It was created in the Qing Dynasty. It uses Chaohu shelduck as raw material, with star anise, pepper, cloves, and squid.

About 30 kinds of traditional Chinese medicines and condiments including fennel are smoked and then brine."

"Wuwei salted duck carefully selects ingredients, and the first choice is high-quality shelduck. It is made with exquisite craftsmanship and is smoked first and then braised, giving it a natural smoky aroma. The finished duck is golden and shiny, with thick sebum, fresh and tender meat, a mellow flavor, and the aroma of bJ roast duck.

And the freshness of Nanjing salted duck."

When Wu Lan heard this, his eyes lit up, "So, this Wuwei smoked duck is a roast duck that is more delicious than bJ roast duck?"

Xu Weiguo shook his head, "You can't give this definition. Whether it's BJ roast duck, Nanjing salted duck or Wuwei smoked duck, they all have their own characteristics and tastes. After everyone tastes it, they give different conclusions, so there is no distinction.

We are the same, we can only say that each has its own characteristics! Since our family has already had bJ roast duck before, I chose to make Wuwei smoked duck this time."

At this time, Xu Xiaoya raised her little hand and asked curiously: "Dad, why is it called Wuwei smoked duck?"

Xu Weiguo explained with a smile: "Because this Wuwei smoked duck is produced in a city called Wuwei City, it is called Wuwei smoked duck!"

"Oh, I understand, it's like bJ roast duck!" Xu Xiaoya's smiling face revealed a sudden smile.

"That's right! Xiaoya is really smart!" Xu Weiguo extended his thumb to Xu Xiaoya.

"Weiguo, what else is special about this Wuwei smoked duck?" Lou Xiao'e looked at the duck on the table, "It looks similar!"

Xu Weiguo said with a smile: "The fatty acids in duck meat have a low melting point and are easy to digest. It contains more B vitamins and vitamin E than other meats. It can effectively resist beriberi, neuritis and various inflammations, and can also resist aging. Duck meat

Meat is rich in niacin, which is one of the two important coenzymes in the human body and has a protective effect on patients with heart diseases such as myocardial infarction. Of course, bJ roast duck and other duck-based foods have this

Effect!"

"However, this Wuwei smoked duck is blended with many kinds of traditional Chinese medicine, so in addition to its excellent taste, it is also a medicinal dish!"

"The method is quite simple. The main thing is to control the heat, clean the duck, rub the duck body with salt, marinate it in a vat for 4 hours, turning it once in the middle. Blanch the duck in boiling water until the skin shrinks, hang it in the air vent, and rub it

Peel the skin. Place 4 on the middle rack of the smoker.

Use a thin iron rod, place the duck back down, smoke for 5 minutes, then turn over and smoke for another 5 minutes. Add spices, soy sauce, green onions and ginger cubes to a large pot, bring to a boil, add the duck and simmer for 45 minutes, remove.

Chop the duck into pieces and serve on a plate."

After listening to what Xu Weiguo said, Ran Qiu swallowed his saliva and said with a smile: "Listening to Brother Xu's description, I couldn't help but want to swallow my saliva."

Xu Weiguo: "Everyone, please do something fast, don't just listen to me!"

Lou Xiao'e was the first to pick up the kuaizi, "That's right, we can listen to Wei Guo's lectures and eat at the same time, so that we can taste the best taste of these dishes!"

Wu Lan nodded, "That's the truth. I remember that many restaurants like to hire a storyteller. The diners listen to the book while eating and drinking. It's so happy!"

Xu Weiguo said angrily: "You think of me as a storyteller about love! How about I sing two more songs for you?"

"Weiguo...you can also sing?!" Lou Xiao'e was shocked!

Wu Lan hurriedly raised her hand and said: "I don't know if my brother can sing, but my brother is very good at singing!"

Xu Weiguo knew that Wu Lan was referring to the "The Moon Represents My Heart" he wrote last time, and quickly waved his hand, "It was just a coincidence that time!"

"Do you still want to listen to me continue talking about the dishes? If you don't want to listen, I will start eating!"

When Xu Weiguo stopped talking, everyone became anxious.

"Brother, I was wrong, just keep saying it and I won't interrupt!" Wu Lan said quickly.

"Weiguo, please continue talking. Every time I hear what you say, my appetite is inexplicably good!" Lou Xiao'e picked up a piece of fish and put it into her mouth, with a look of happiness on her face.

"Okay, let me continue. There are really two stories about this Wuwei smoked duck!" Xu Weiguo nodded, and then started talking, "It is said that during the Qing Dynasty, the local people absorbed the practices of many cuisines and improved them.

with drum

The salted duck operated by Lin Hongxing in Loukou was the most famous. The method at that time was: use about 2 kilograms of shelduck, slaughter and wash it, remove the internal organs under the wings, wash them with water, add salt, pour in nitrate water and shake it, then put it in the tank

Marinate, marinate the duck first

After two hours, put the duck head down, marinate for another two hours, and hang it on the air vent to dry the water. Then use a thin iron rod as a rack, place the duck on top, and slowly burn the duck with sawdust on the bottom, and smoke it every five minutes.

Once, wait until the duck is golden in color and smell

To smell, add star anise and other spices into a cloth bag and tie the mouth, put it into a water-filled pot, add incense and other auxiliary ingredients, after boiling, add the smoked duck blank, simmer over low heat for about ten minutes, then use firewood ash

Just simmer over high heat for thirty minutes!"

"According to legend, Zhu Yuanzhang's family was poor when he was a child. He herded cows for others, but his boss would not feed him, so when a group of cowherd boys got together, they caught wild ducks. They did not dare to take them home to eat.

Just cut some in the wild

Thatch, set up a fire and smoke it. Sometimes it is not cooked enough, so it is buried in the ashes of the fire. When it is pulled out the next day, the duck meat is fragrant, rotten and delicious. This is the predecessor of Wuwei smoked duck! But I think

This is a bit unreliable!"

"Another legend is that a long time ago, near Wuwei Drum Tower, there lived an orphan named Zhang Ren, who was good at making salted duck. He and his neighbor's daughter He Quan were childhood sweethearts, but they had no money to send a betrothal gift to propose marriage. This year another

On the occasion of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhang Ren plucked up the courage and came to He's house with a salted duck carefully made by himself to propose marriage. He Quan's mother knew that Zhang Ren was smart and diligent, so she was not interested in the marriage.

He did not object, but when he saw that the so-called betrothal gift brought by Zhang Ren was only a salted duck, he was afraid that the world would laugh at him, so he hinted to He Quan, comforted him, and sent Zhang Ren out of the house together with the salted duck. Zhang Ren returned

At home, the porridge had been stewed on the stew stove, but he was unhappy and had no intention of eating it. He hung the salted duck on the iron hook above the stew stove, added a few handfuls of sawdust to the stew stove where there was still fire, and put it with his clothes.

bed

I went to bed and went to sleep. The wood chips were slowly burning half-extinguished, and there was a fine smoke, and the birds rose up and smoked the salted duck. After about three or four quarters of an hour, a smooth salted duck turned into a

The duck was golden in color and smelled of fragrant game. The tangy aroma woke up Zhang Ren. When he saw the salted duck, he was overjoyed and braised the salted duck for a short time. Suddenly, the meat of the salted duck became even more tender and beautiful. When Zhang Ren put the duck into

Only

When the salted duck was delivered to the He family again, the whole family couldn't help but be overjoyed. He's mother solemnly said: "Zhang Ren, this special salted duck is your special betrothal gift. You and Aquan will get married soon!" Zhang Renhe and

After He Quan got married, he carefully developed and distributed salted duck, which won praise from people. He renamed the salted duck as smoked duck and also used it as a token of love. Although this story is a coincidence, it is the most likely!"

"Many classic things are often made unintentionally."

Xu Xiaoya asked very simply: "Then the love tokens of parents are also Wuwei smoked duck?"

Hearing Xu Xiaoya's words, everyone in the room burst out laughing.

Du Yue couldn't help laughing and touched Xu Xiaoya's head, "Little girl, your parents' love tokens are not smoked ducks!"

Lou Xiao'e smiled and said: "Xiaoya, Wuwei City is quite far from Sijiu City, your parents' love token should be bJ roast duck! Haha!"

Others also continued to laugh.

"Sister Xiao'e, I don't want you to be like this because you are a bad child!" Xu Weiguo said angrily.

"Then tell me, what is the token of love you gave to Du Yue? It shouldn't be nothing!" Lou Xiao'e continued.

"He gave it as a gift!" Du Yue said quickly: "It's a bracelet!"

After hearing what Du Yue said, everyone gave up.

However, Xu Weiguo was a little confused. He traveled into Xu Weiguo's body and inherited part of his memory, but he couldn't remember that he gave Du Yue a bracelet as a token of love.

I was grateful to Du Yue for rescuing me. Maybe he really gave it away, but he just lost that part of his memory.

After finishing these thoughts, Xu Weiguo continued to introduce the remaining two dishes.

"Steamed cured meat is a traditional local dish in Hunan. It belongs to the Hunan cuisine. It is steamed in a pot with cured pork, cured chicken, cured fish, chicken soup and seasonings. It is simple to make, has a strong aroma of wax, is salty and sweet, and is not flexible.

Tired!"

"Hunan is a low-lying area with a warm and humid climate. Fresh meat is not suitable for storage, but smoked bacon can be preserved and stored. Gradually, people also developed a eating habit of eating bacon. As early as the Han Dynasty,

, the ancestors of Hunan used bacon to make delicacies. By the Qing Dynasty, such dishes were already very famous, and "steamed bacon" is one of many cured dishes."

"This dish does have a heavy flavor compared to the price, but it has a strong waxy aroma, is salty and sweet, is bright red in color, is soft and not greasy, is slightly juicy, and has complementary flavors. Each has its own unique flavor."

"Bacon is rich in phosphorus, potassium, and sodium, and also contains fat, protein, carbohydrates and other elements. It has the effects of appetizing, dispelling cold, and digestion. Chicken has high protein content and high digestibility. It is easily absorbed and utilized by the human body and has the effect of strengthening the body.

It has the function of strengthening physical strength and strengthening the body. Chicken contains substances that are important for human growth and development.

The phospholipids that play an important role are one of the important sources of fat and phospholipids in the dietary structure of the Chinese people. Fish meat contains folic acid, vitamin b2, vitamin b12, vitamin A, iron, calcium, phosphorus and other nutrients. The meat is fresh and tender, similar to poultry and livestock meat.

Compared with other foods, it tastes softer and more tender, and is easier to digest and absorb."

"However, it is not advisable to drink a lot of tea after eating pork. This is because the tannic acid in tea will synthesize astringent tannic acid protein with protein, which will slow down intestinal peristalsis, easily cause constipation, and increase the absorption of toxic substances and carcinogens. Bacon nutrition

There are many losses. During the production process, the meat contains many vitamins and trace elements.

Vegetables and other nutrients are almost lost, so don’t eat too much. Bacon has a high salt content. The sodium content of 100 grams of bacon is nearly 800 mg, which is more than ten times the average amount of ordinary pork. Eating large amounts of bacon for a long time will inadvertently cause salt

Excessive intake may aggravate or cause blood pressure to increase or fluctuate."

"In short, this dish tastes very good, but you shouldn't eat too much!"

When Xu Weiguo talked about steaming bacon, Lou Xiaoe and the others all picked up a piece of bacon from Kuai Zi. After eating, they still looked like they were enjoying themselves, and then they started to express their opinions.

"Hmm, I like this taste very much!" Du Yue nodded repeatedly after finishing a piece.

Xu Weiguo smiled and said: "Daughter-in-law, you run around in the workshop all day long and sweat a lot, so you would like the taste to be stronger!"

Du Yue was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly said: "So there is still such a saying!"
