I really don't want high ratings for my documentaries!

Chapter 277 Spice Crossroads!

The day of vacation is getting closer.

The mood of the workers is getting more and more relaxed.

The urgent need for rest prevents everyone from working properly.

No matter how Duan Ya urged, Xu Wen's studio finally did not reply to Duan Ya before the holiday.

This made Duan Ya die without a problem in the end.

Thinking of waiting until after the holidays to deal with this matter.

Once it's time for vacation, work is put aside.

Everyone is fully committed to eating, drinking and playing, as well as crowded repetitive entertainment.

Obviously scolding every year, I must not come to the scenic spots when I am on vacation next time.

But every year when the holidays come, I still unconsciously repeat this sport.

At night, I basically collapsed on the bed from exhaustion.

Even the takeaway downstairs has to be delivered by robots.

Duan Ya took the whole family out of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

Came to Yunnan.

This province is a province with gourmet food, beautiful scenery and beautiful people.

Had a day of fun.

Especially with kids.

Duan Ya's vacation is like working overtime.

There is no relaxation at all.

At this moment, when the child fell asleep, she would have time to rest and sit in the hotel to watch TV for a while.

Lie on your side on the bed, holding the remote control in your hand.

Turn over one by one.

Didn't find anything I liked either.

Just as I was about to take out my phone to cast a movie that I had watched several times.

A TV with commercials playing in front of you.

The screen was switched suddenly.

Looking at the refreshing picture.

Duan Ya was taken aback for a moment, and only then noticed the small sign in the upper left corner.

Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV.

At this moment, the pictures of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Satellite TV are full of temptation.

Duan Ya didn't expect that she would be transferred to Xu Wen's "Bite of the Tongue 2" by mistake.

After thinking about it, watching several movies is worse than watching fresh documentaries.

Duan Ya put down the remote control in her hand and began to watch the new documentary of "A Bite of Tongue 2".

"It was originally a self-defense weapon for plants."

"But inadvertently, I made a colorful wedding dress for the food."

"Humanity's Quest for Spices."

"Create paths on the earth."

"Scents and colours."

"Fragrance flows, breath blends."

"Every encounter starts an adventure between people and food."

The picture begins with a green plant in the mountains.

This is a plant that produces small, red fruits.

It is obviously not edible raw, but it is still sought after by people.

The theme of this episode is a variety of colorful plants.

The food itself becomes a supporting role.

Various accessories from the past stood in front of the camera.

Green leaves, white rhizomes, red fruit and brown fine powder.

Take turns appearing in front of the camera.

It's like the last ounce of protection before going on stage.

Add a special layer of flavor to the taste of food.

It only takes a moment to switch from the hot pot red base to the lo-mei brown soup base.

It is also because of the excavation of this generation.

There are now a variety of delicacies.

Narration at the end.

The title of the episode appears.

【Spice Road】.

For spice.

Duan Ya was lying on the hotel bed.

I unconsciously thought of myself on my way back to the hotel.

The lo mei that I bought in a small street store.

The taste of the spices overwhelms the taste of the ingredients themselves.

But when you put your mouth down, you can taste the special deliciousness of the fusion of the ingredients themselves and the spices.

It's a pity that Duan Ya hasn't had time to eat the lo-mei food.

He was eaten by his own children.

Just when these thoughts flashed in Duan Ya's mind.

The camera has come to Sichuan Ya'an.

Among the rolling mountains.

Green isn't the only theme.

Among the staggered green, red is also occasionally embellished.

"Autumn has just entered, and the refreshing and sweet scent of oranges is wafting from the valley."

"Zanthoxylum bungeanum, oily naan with grains protruding from the peel."

"Aromatic essential oils fill it."

"Complex terpenes are the source of fresh aroma."

Sichuan peppercorn?

Duan Ya was taken aback.

People in China are no strangers to this kind of food.

The golden supporting role in Sichuan cuisine.

When it comes to spices, peppercorns are definitely a must.

Originally, Duan Ya thought that she would be familiar with this kind of thing.

not interested.

But under the lens of "Bite of Tongue 2".

Obviously, it can make you discover a different side of peppercorns.

Zanthoxylum bungeanum under the microscopic camera.

The whole body is round, with bumps on the surface.

At first glance, it looks like a strangely shaped planet in the universe.

As it goes deeper into the interior, there is a little dark purple substance in a red sac.

Through the narration, Duan Ya understands that this is the so-called terpene compound.

"The eastern part of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, from south to north."

"Prickly ash matures gradually."

"Half a month later, the Zanthoxylum bungeanum pepper has also entered the picking period in the Minjiang Gorge area."

In the mountains and plains, batches of pepper farmers took their tools and stepped into this pepper forest located in the Minjiang Gorge.

For An Sanwa, these 500 pepper trees are their livelihood for a year.

An Sanwa led the pepper farmers to pick vegetables and fruits under the pepper trees.

The sound of branches snapping came and went.

Duan Ya was a little surprised.

She thought that in modern society, picking crops no longer requires manual labor.

Unexpectedly, there are still some particularly stubborn crops that require manual operation.

At this moment, under the originally gloomy weather under the camera.

There was a sudden roar of thunder.

Then there was a sudden downpour.

Looking at the few pepper trees.

Duan Ya thought, if he hurry up, so many pepper farmers should be able to pick vegetables soon.

But unexpectedly.

All the pepper farmers in the picture seem to have made an agreement.

The collective hid in a canopy that had been built long ago.

Protect the prickly ash in the basket with the clothes on your body.

Don't let it get a drop of rain.

"The thunderstorm interrupted the actions of the pepper farmers."

"Ripe prickly ash fruit, once wet by rain."

"Pluck it and it will turn black and moldy."

"That's what pepper farmers worry about the most."

Hearing the narration's explanation, Duan Ya suddenly understood.

I didn't expect to learn a cold knowledge.

Zanthoxylum bungeanum is quite arrogant.

Because the rain has wet the peppercorns.

An Sanwa had no choice but to wait to take the pepper farmers down the mountain.

Fortunately, the next day, the weather cleared up.

Pepper farmers were able to continue picking.

The picked prickly ash was handed over to An Sanwa's father, An Dengjie.

An Dengjie put all the peppercorns on a special stove.

Dense red peppercorns are all over the stove.

Let the whole room is filled with a fragrance.

But An Dengjie was preoccupied.

Rough fingers carefully stroked the surface of the peppercorns.

The moist touch from the skin of his fingers made him a little worried.

Suddenly encountered rain, I don't know if these peppercorns can be successfully exploded in more than ten hours today.

appears to be particularly critical.

When the screen changed, An Dengjie had a rough face.

Sitting under the stove with a small bench, adding firewood in his hand.

Start heating up the hob.

During dozens of hours of baking.

The water vapor on the surface of the pepper begins to evaporate.

Immediately afterwards, small crackling sounds began to crackle.

Duan Ya, who was sitting in front of the TV, was taken aback.

what sound?
Before she came back to her senses.

The screen switched to a microscopic camera.

Bright red peppercorns, from which they begin to crack.

A black fruit slowly drilled out of it.

And with the black fruit drilled out.

A slight "pop" sound followed.

Duan Ya showed a clear look.

It turned out that the pepper was ripe.

All of a sudden, the prickly ash on the entire kang seemed to have matured prematurely.

They swelled open one after another, revealing the fruit inside.

Seeing this scene, Anden Jie had a smile on his face.

Separate the pepper husks from the fruit and stems through a sieve.

The pepper husk is the secret to the deliciousness of the food.

Grind the peppercorns into powder.

It was the earliest method of pickling before the advent of refrigeration technology.

But obviously people in Sichuan have a better way to store flavor.

After grinding the prickly ash husk into powder.

Spread evenly over ribs and pork belly.

Like ordinary farmers, the marinated meat is hung high on the beams of the house.

Smoke the roast over a pine charcoal fire.

It is different from the bacon practice of ordinary people.

An Dengjie would throw in the remaining pepper stalks as Chai Xin.

Intense citrus fragrance with fruity woody aromas.

Keep coloring the bacon.

Seeing this, Duan Ya was a little surprised.

Bacon with pepper stems?

What would this taste like?
Usually she'd only seen ones fired from pine.

This is the first time I have seen it made with pepper stalks.

At this moment, the curiosity in my heart is greater than the instinctive appetite.

Then the screen turned to winter.

"Winter is coming, and it's time to enjoy delicious food."

"Air-dried yak meat cooked with peppercorns is reawakened on the stove."

"Rich oil, wrapped in a peculiar oily aroma of pepper."

"Subtle and thick."

"This is a common practice in the area."

At this time, the bacon on the beams has been smoked.

An Dengjie took down a piece of bacon.

Under the blade, the black bacon sliced ​​open.

It is red flesh.

Unlike the blood red of fresh meat, it is a finely tuned color between dark red and light red.

Such a color will neither make people feel sick, but also make people curious about its taste.

But what's really great is.

When pieces of cut yak meat are put on the stove.

The high temperature causes the meat slices to bulge or dent rapidly.

The surface of the reddish meat is instantly covered by the oil and water squeezed out of the fat meat.

Sizzling on the iron plate of the stove.

The meat meets the sound of hot oil.

It's like opening a door to Duan Ya's Hunger Road.

The gurgling sound in the stomach and the oily sound in the TV formed an inexplicable ensemble.

Duan Ya swallowed dryly unconsciously.

But if "Bite of Tongue 2" just makes people swallow dryly, then "Bite of Tongue 2" won't have such a big reputation.

Then the screen turns.

A pot of boiling yak meat was set aside.

Fragrant and juicy!

The yak meat cooked in boiling water is put on the sticky board.

It is cut into strips of rectangular blocks under the blade.

When the water stains on the surface have not faded.

Drop directly into the hot oil and set aside.

The rapid oil temperature makes the surface shrink rapidly.

Wait until it is served on a plate.

Every piece of yak meat is crispy.

Collide with each other and bounce off.

Even out of hot oil.

There is also a slight oily sound to the surface.

Seeing this picture, a word appeared in Duan Ya's mind unconsciously.

crispy!

But that's not all.

The freshly beaten pepper noodles bring a wonderful feeling of tingling and numbness to the mouth.

Immediately afterwards, the addition of chili noodles and sesame seeds enriches the taste of yak meat.

After repeated collisions, every piece of yak meat is covered with a fresh coat.

See here.

Duan Ya's saliva began to secrete crazily.

The glutton in the stomach agitated the stomach.

Start playing the Symphony of Hunger.

Reason and instinct began to fight each other.

Just when there was a stalemate.

In the picture, a spoonful of hot oil is poured down.

All the yak meat is poured in this golden hot oil.

The flavor of spices on the surface penetrates directly to the inside.

Go deep into lean meat.

The flavor is sublimated at this moment.

The only reason left in Duan Ya's mind.

see this scene.

Just said two words in a daze.

It’s over.

next second.

Duan Ya's stomach was still rumbling.

A crazy desire to eat filled her mind.

Make her fidgety.

Just when she was looking for something to eat.

The picture on the TV changed.

A new screen appeared again.

Duan Ya felt very familiar with the terrain of the Hengduan Mountains.

When the introduction of "Yunbei Dehong" appeared on TV.

Duan Ya finally understood.

Isn't this the place where their family came to travel?
As soon as the screen changed, a middle-aged man named Yang Enxin led a little girl through the mountains.

All the wild fruits and vegetables along the road were ignored by them.

Eyes have been looking for something on the Internet.

Finally, Yang Enxin pointed to the height of the tree and shouted.

"Where!"

The camera poked over.

It was a wasp's nest hanging on a branch.

"Wasps are ferocious in nature and even attack people and livestock."

"Yunbei people at the top of the food chain have discovered its delicacy."

Seeing this, Duan Ya was taken aback.

Is it to eat bees?
She has seen before that people in some places like to eat these insects.

Although some people like it, some people can't accept it.

Like Duan Ya.

Yang Enxin took out the prepared machete.

Peel off the entire wasp nest.

No honey, no wasps.

Instead, he carefully removed a row of white eggs from the hive.

Then he took it home.

"My daughter is studying abroad and hasn't come home for several months."

"For a brief meeting, Yang Enxin wants to cook an authentic mountain delicacy for his daughter."

In the picture, Yang Enxin came back with bee eggs.

While chatting with her daughter, she quickly picked out the bee eggs with her hands.

Before and after the wasp pupates, it has not yet formed.

His whole body was white and motionless.

Kind of like a chic chocolate.

Place the wasp eggs on the steamer and cover it.

Wait for the steam to change it.

Yang Enxin came to the kitchen.

Take out a vegetable that Duan Ya can't name.

Start chopping.

"Chop coriander, cilantro, and wild chives."

"The most commonly used herbs by the locals, mixed with minced beef raw."

"To make dipping sauce, it's called Sapai in Dai language."

"Today, Yang Enxin is going to make a top-notch salsa."

Use steamed and chopped bee chrysalis, mix several kinds of herbs and make a dip and mix together.

The combination of green and creamy white makes the overall color appetizing.

The bright colors dilute the disgusting feeling of bee pupae.

Look at the changed bee pupae.

The discomfort in Duan Ya's heart gradually receded.

There is a hint of desire in my heart that I want to have a taste.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Enxin took out a sharp and plump pepper.

Cut off diagonally.

Then he made something unexpected to Duan Ya.

Yang Enxin smeared the bee chrysalis with a chili cut.

Neither minced nor added them.

There is no thought of eating it raw.

Duan Ya was a little puzzled by this action.

"Shabu Shabu spicy."

"One of the spiciest varieties in Huaguo."

"The burning sensation it brings to the mouth is a hundred times that of the chili we eat every day."

"Shabu-shabu spicy can't be eaten directly, just lightly shabu-shabu."

"The whole bowl of Sapai suddenly becomes extremely spicy."

"Capsaicin was originally a weapon against animals."

"Humans fall in love with the stimulating taste it brings."

Duan Ya couldn't help being curious about such a strange chili.

Facing the extremely dangerous pepper in the camera.

Duan Ya actually had the idea of ​​wanting to eat it raw.

Or that human beings are killed by curiosity.

"In addition to being spicy, Shabu Shabu also has a strange fragrance."

"This makes the dinner of Yang Enxin's family full of flavor."

"Bee chrysalis is rich in protein and has an oily aroma similar to eggs and nuts."

"The addition of shabu-shabu and spicy food further sets off the light sweetness of bee pupa melon and fruit."

A bowl of sapo is just a dip for dinner.

Surrounding ingredients are the staples of dinner.

But in front of this bowl of Sabo, all the staple foods are its supporting roles.

Dip rice noodles, bee chrysalis, etc. in turn.

The strange taste drilled out of the screen in an instant.

This has a well-known attraction to Duan Ya, who is obviously in Yunnan Province.

For Duan Ya.

Saba seems to be a place that makes her journey this time different.

Before she could figure it out.

The glutton in his stomach has already made a decision for him.

Duan Ya quickly took out her mobile phone.

Start looking on the map for shops that specialize in buying sapo.

It was really lucky that Duan Ya quickly found a family.

And it's not far from her.

Duan Ya glanced at her husband who was already asleep.

Then tiptoe to get dressed.

Take the key and send a message to your husband.

The cat strode out of the hotel.

Navigate along the way.

Duan Ya quickly found the store on the navigation.

There was joy on Duan Ya's face.

Even a growling stomach.

It also seems to be to reward her.

At the moment it has eased a little.

But it didn't take Duan Ya to be happy for a few seconds.

I was given emo by the long queue in front of me.

Duan Ya experienced a day of queuing.

The most annoying thing at the moment is queuing.

I wanted to go back to the hotel and order takeaway.

After a search, I found that there was no takeaway.

Under depression and desire, Duan Ya honestly lined up here.

Waited for half an hour.

Finally, it was Duan Ya.

Quickly order a bowl of Sapao.

Duan Ya happily sat on the table waiting for her meal.

Unexpectedly, I just sat down on my front foot.

A familiar face sat opposite him on the back foot.

Duan Ya looked at her husband and said in surprise.

"How did you come?"

"I woke up, and I was hungry when I saw "A Bite of Tongue 2" on TV, and then I noticed the message you sent me, so I came here."

The husband smiled honestly.

Duan Ya gave a wry smile.

"It's a pity that I came out to eat in order not to wake you up."

"Go and tell the boss to add another bowl."

The husband nodded happily.

"That's just right! I just saw the sprinkle on "A Bite of Tongue 2", so I want to eat it."

"Talk about it, let's just put "A Bite of Tongue 2" on at night."

"It's still aired on holiday nights, so many people can't sleep at night."

My husband said something casually.

After speaking, he ran to the ordering counter.

But Duan Ya who was sitting on the table was stunned.

It's like being opened to Ren Du's second channel.

A lot of things came to my mind instantly!

　Thanks: "The Wind, the Flower, the Snow and the Moon Don't Know You and Me" for the 100-point reward!
