The first thousand two hundred and ninety-two chapters five flavors of life

At about nine o'clock in the morning, Zhao Chaogang and his group arrived at Liu Jingjing's home. Soon, there were sounds of firecrackers at the door of the Liu family. Zhao Chaogang and his group carried a large number of betrothal gifts and entered the Liu Mansion with the welcome of firecrackers.

Like in Pingping's house, after Zhao Chaogang came to Liu Mansion, he first went to the lobby to thank Liu Mingxin and his wife, kowtowed to Liu Mingxin and his wife, and then came to Liu Jingjing's room.

Of course, this time Zhao Chaogang was also embarrassed by Cai Chanjuan. Compared with the difficulties encountered at Pingping's house, the problems Cai Chanjuan had posed for Zhao Chaogang even more trouble.

After all, Huang Tingting and the others are ordinary people and do not understand Zhao Chaogang's true identity. Therefore, even if some problems are asked, it is very simple. It is not difficult for Zhao Chaogang to deal with it. However, Cai Chanjuan is different. Although she does not thoroughly understand the identity of Zhao Chaogang's cultivator, she clearly knows the identity of Zhao Chaogang's warrior. Therefore, the problems that Cai Chanjuan has posed for Zhao Chaogang are really very difficult.

The first level of the problem made Zhao Chaogang's mouth lose consciousness. Cai Chanjuan took out five large cups in the first level, and then asked Zhao Chaogang to carefully taste the specific taste of the "drinks" in the cup, and had to drink them all.

However, this was not caused by Cai Chanjuan's spoof of Zhao Chaogang, but she had some thoughts on it.

Because these "beverages" are all "beverages" made by Cai Chanjuan using some of the kitchen condiments: vinegar, sugar, salt, chili, and bitter melon juice. These five condiments represent the five flavors of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty. They also represent the five flavors of life.

In fact, many people don’t know what this seasoning is in the kitchen. Bitter is one of the five traditional Chinese flavors (soup, sweet, salty, bitter, and spicy), and belongs to the basic flavor.

Bitter taste is generally not popular. It must be combined with other flavorings to make a composite condiment, and the proportion of it is mixed is very small.

If the bitter flavor ingredients are properly matched with the dishes, they have a unique fragrance, which can stimulate appetite and help digestion. For example, bitter melon, the original taste is bitter, but because the bitter taste is slightly sweet, it is loved by people. The bitter ingredients mainly come from Chinese herbs and spices, such as tangerine peel, betel nut, almonds, etc.

In nature, bitter substances are much more than sweet substances. For example, alkaloids, glycosides, lipids and peptides distributed in plants, many of them are bitter; the bile in animals also has a strong bitter taste.

Bitter seasonings include: tea, coffee, chrysanthemum, almonds, tangerine peel, etc. After cooking, these bitter seasonings not only give the dish a unique flavor, but also remove heat and eliminate odor.

Tangerine peel is a dry peel obtained by drying the peel of fruits such as citrus and other fruits. Because it can be left to dry for a long time, it is called "tangerine peel".

Tangerine peel has a bitter taste and is fragrant. Its bitter substance is the "lemonoid" represented by lemon glycoside and bitter. This kind of lemonoid is mild in taste and is easily dissolved in water. It helps the digestion of food. Therefore, when tangerine peel is used to cook dishes, it can be seasoned and removes odor.

Add some orange peel when stewing meat, which not only relieves greasy and removes fishy fishy, ​​but also makes the meat have a fruity aroma; when steaming buns, add some orange peel or powder. After steaming, it is fragrant and delicious, and has a unique flavor; wash the orange peel and cut into small diced diced rice dumplings. Marinate with sugar for 10 days, and can be used to make dumplings fillings, sugar cake fillings, etc., which has a fresh flavor; when cooking porridge, put a few pieces of orange peel in the pot before the water boils, and the cooked porridge is fragrant and delicious; when making peanut sugar, add some chopped orange peels to enhance the flavor and color.

Blanch the orange peel in light salt water and taste astringent, cut into shreds or diced rice, soak it in honey. After 10 days, it will become sweet and delicious orange peel candied fruit.

Wash the orange peel and boil it in water for a few minutes, pour out the water, add clean water and boil it again, repeat several times, remove the bitter taste and squeeze the water dry, cut it into pieces and put it in a pot, add appropriate amount of sugar and a little water, and cook it into a paste, and then it becomes a fresh sweet orange peel jam;

Wash the orange peel and dry it and soak it in white wine. After 3 weeks, it will become orange peel wine. It not only tastes sour, but also clears the lungs and eliminates phlegm. Wash the orange peel and cuts it into shreds, and then rinse it with the tea leaves to make orange peel tea. It has a fragrant taste and can refresh the spirit and enhance the appetite. Put the dried orange peel into the refrigerator to remove the odor; drink orange peel and radish slices to water to cure constipation.

Bitter almonds are a type of almond, which is the seed of mountain apricot. The bitter taste of bitter almonds is mainly provided by bitter apricot glycoside, which is a bitter seasoning. In cooking, the bitter taste of this bitter apricot glycoside is mainly used.

When used for cooking, bitter almonds are often soaked in water to remove the bitterness of some bitter almonds. Then stir-fry or mix with vegetables such as celery, carrots, soybeans and other vegetables.

When using bitter almonds as bitter seasoning, you should pay attention to: bitter almonds should not be eaten too much at one time. If you eat too much bitter almonds, it can reduce the human tissues or lose the function of transporting oxygen, and can even inhibit the central nervous system of breathing. In severe cases, life-threatening.

Therefore, when using bitter almonds during cooking, you must first soak them in water so that most of the bitter almonds in them are dissolved in water. This can not only reduce the bitter taste, but also ensure safety. Dishes such as: colorful almonds, almond chicken diced chicken, and three almonds.

Chrysanthemum is a head-shaped inflorescence of the Asteraceae plant. It is sweet in nature, bitter and cool in taste. It contains volatile oils, choline, adenine, chrysanthemum, amino acids, flavonoids, vitamin B1 and other ingredients. It can be used to make chrysanthemum wine, chrysanthemum green tea drinks, chrysanthemum meat slices, chrysanthemum fish fillets, etc.

Tea is an important cooking seasoning. There are many dishes made by using tea as a seasoning with special flavors, and some have become famous dishes in my country. For example, from the original "five-spice tea eggs", "tea braised beef", "dried tea beans" gradually developed to being cooked into "Longjing fish fillets", "Biluochun dumplings", "New tea fried steak", "Chicken shredded Biluochun", etc.

The bitterness of tea is mainly formed by caffeine, theophylline, and cocoamin. These three bitter substances also have a certain effect on human physiological functions, such as it can stimulate the nerve center, promote metabolism, relieve greasiness, and help digestion.

Tea also contains many other ingredients, such as inorganic salts, amino acids, vitamins, ergosterol, etc. These ingredients have certain functions in the human body to prevent diseases, resist diseases, nutritional and health care. Dishes such as: Longjing shrimp, Yunwu shrimp, and Huahua Chicken Fillet.

It can be said that bitter taste is actually very common in the kitchen. However, everyone is prone to ignore this bitter taste. I believe everyone has eaten tea eggs and meat stewed with dried tangerine peel. Therefore, the bitter taste seasoning is actually very familiar to everyone.

Cai Chanjuan took out five cups of "beverage" that tastes sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty, and let Zhao Chaogang taste it, and distinguished which cup of "beverage" tastes which one, actually wanted to let Zhao Chaogang know in this way. The five flavors of life.

Life is a seasoning bottle. Sour represents the bitterness and hard work in life; sweet represents your feeling of happiness; bitter represents the pain and hardships you encounter; spicy represents the accidents you encounter and the past that excites you; salt represents the taste of life you always taste. In your life, every taste is your experience!

"Soy, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty" is collectively called "Five Flavors", (There is another saying that "Five Flavors" are: sweet, bitter, sour, spicy, and salty.) These are actually five different taste feelings that people feel stimulating to the outside world.

The same is true in life. Everyone will have their own unique feelings. It is the most accurate to describe various experiences in life by using "sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty".

Some people have also used "five flavors" to describe life, calling it "five flavors of life".

Suffer makes us understand that life is a kind of luck and people who can live a hard life are immune to suffering. They can tolerate adversity in life and are more likely to succeed.

Salty is the driving force of life. With salt, our lives have power.

Sourness is a trace of regret in life. Sourness plays a warning role in our life, but it should not be the main flavor of our life.

Spicy is the stimulation of life, spicy is a temptation, and spicy is also a challenge.

Sweet is a good taste in life. However, sweetness is too abundant and can easily breed toxins.

In Chinese, "sour" is often used by people to describe sadness and sadness, and also to express the meaning of shabbyness and pedanticity. "There are absurd words on the paper, and a handful of bitter tears. It is said that the author is crazy, who can understand the taste of it?"

Cao Xueqin made such a judgment in the first chapter of "Dream of Red Mansions". If Cao Xueqin had not had the "hard" experience of Cao Xueqin, there would have been no such birth as "Dream of Red Mansions".

In "Ask the Duke to choose a drink on the day of the strong wind", Su Dongpo sighed that "You should eat the Duke for 800 miles, and be proud of yourself to wash away the sourness of Confucian scholars" and expressed his heroic spirit to wipe out all the sourness and corruption.

If a person has a poor life and a tragic fate (Wang Bo's "Preface to Farewell to Prince Teng Pavilion"), then his fate will inevitably be "hard"; if a person lives a poor life of "the quilt is as cold as iron for many years, and his sweet son is lying in a trance" (Du Fu's "Song of the Thatched Hut by the Autumn Wind"), then he will definitely be exposed to "sweetness".

Sourness is a trace of regret in life. When you look back on your life path, be discouraged and reflect on it, you find that you have taken the wrong path and made a mistake, and you can't regret it. But after all, people who like sourness are a minority, and pregnant women are in special circumstances.

Generally speaking, bad and spoiled foods show a sour taste. Sour tastes a warning to our lives, but should not be the main taste of our lives.

A person's destiny may be elusive, but bitterness may be difficult to avoid; a person's life must not be poor, because hard work can make you rich, so shabby can be overcome.

"Sweet", "Shangshu? Hongfan" says: "Jiafeng is sweet." It also says: "Sweet taste grows in hundreds of grains." "Hundred grains" are food, which is the basic need for human survival. Later generations often refer to "sweetness" as a combination of delicious food, and is used to describe happiness and happiness.

The "sweetness" that people often say "sweetness comes after suffering" means happiness and happiness.

Speaking of happiness and happiness in life, there is no happier than in childhood. In childhood, with the protection of parents, you can be worry-free and worry-free. The sky falls, and someone supports it; when the ground cracks, someone goes to make up for it. No wonder the poet Xin Qiji of the Song Dynasty sighed that "the young man does not know the taste of sorrow."

In addition to being a teenager, as long as you are a person who loves life and is good at experiencing it carefully, life will also have a lot of happiness and joy.

The ancients believed that life has "four joys": long-term drought, encountering sweet dew, meeting old friends in foreign land, blooming on the wedding night, and nominations on the gold list.

As for the "Four Joys" of the ancients, we can actually understand it in this way: "After a long drought, I met a dew" is the fulfillment of the will of heaven after waiting patiently; "Meeting an old friend in a foreign land" is the chance meeting after making good friends; "Bridal night" is the good knot after striving for hard work; "Notification at the Golden List" is the success and fame after ten years of hard work.

From this point of view, in order to find happiness and joy in life, you must "wait patiently", "make good friends", "pursuing hard" and "ten years of hard work".

Sweetness is a good taste in life. Everyone hopes that their lives will be sweet, but if you eat too much sweets, people will easily gain weight. Similarly, if you are too rich in sweetness, it will easily breed toxins.

Bitter, as one of the "five flavors", is exactly opposite to sweetness. In ancient times, "bitter" was a herb. "The Book of Songs? Tang Feng" wrote: "Cooking bitterness and picking bitterness. Under Shouyang", which describes the scene of collecting bitter grass at the foot of Shouyang Mountain.

As a taste feeling, bitterness is difficult to accept, and even a taste reversal. Similarly, when "pain" is mentioned, people think of more words about discomfort and pain.

The hardship of work is called "hard work"; the hardship of life is called "hard work"; the hardship of fate is called "hard work"; the expression is "sad face"; the language is "hard work"; the behavior is "hard work"; the psychology is "good intention".

Of course, no matter how hard it is, it cannot resist the four major sorrows of life: losing parents in a young age, losing spouse in middle age, losing only son in old age, and having no good teacher in young age.

No one likes to live a bitter life. Bitterness is just a conditioning. Just like some people eat bitter melon in summer, praising the deliciousness and efficacy of bitter melon, but not everyone is used to this bitter taste. Bitterness can be popular for a while, but it cannot become the main taste of everyone.

Spicy is the stimulation of life. After staying in a calm day like water for a long time, we always long for fresh and exciting things to break the calm water surface. Spicy is such a seasoning. It spares no effort to stimulate your taste buds, allowing you to fully experience the stimulation and blood circulation.

Spicy is a kind of temptation - confusion, and spicy is also a challenge. For most people, they are always tempted - confusing. Anyone who can bravely accept challenges in life is a strong man.

Some people are used to the unchanging life, the places where they live and the routes they walk every day, the places and environments where they work... But when a better job is placed in front of them, they may not be able to accept changes and challenges.

"Salty", the main source of salt is salt. The sodium ingredient in salt is an indispensable chemical element in the human body, so it is indispensable. Among the delicious dishes in various countries around the world, salty ingredient is the basic taste and is indispensable.

Although salty is an ordinary taste, its proper adjustment can bring out the beauty of all foods to the extreme. Salt is like love in life, and just the right love is the most ideal.

If you love your children more, you become "spoiled"; if you love your women more, you become "ugly"; if you love your money more, you become "stingy".

My mother said that life cannot be without salt for a day, and eating without salt will not grow strength. Salt is the most primitive and important seasoning. Eating the salt of life, your wings will grow hard day by day and be able to soar in the blue sky.

In short, in a person's life, you don't like "sour", sometimes you can't refuse; you like "sweet", sometimes you will be poured out by honey; you are afraid of "bitter", sometimes you have to bear it; you are worried about "spicy", sometimes you come here; you are indispensable for "salty", sometimes you are pickled to death.

Therefore, in general, only a life with mixed flavors of "sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty" is the real life!

At this time, Cai Chanjuan let Zhao Chaogang taste the five flavors of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy and salty. In fact, she wanted to tell Zhao Chaogang that not all the tastes of life are sweet. In the taste of life, sweetness accounts for at most one-fifth, and the other tastes are not good. I hope that Zhao Chaogang will live more rare in life in the future and love Jingjing more!

A best friend like Cai Chanjuan is the real best friend. It is rare for Liu Jingjing to have such a close friend who is sincere to her. Cai Chanjuan did not disappoint Liu Jingjing's trust in her. (After practicing martial arts, Liu Jingjing quickly obtained the consent of Zhao Chaogang to teach Cai Chanjuan martial arts. At that time, the secret realm of the martial arts world had not yet been opened!)

The test of Cai Chanjuan's five flavors of life made Zhao Chaogang a headache colleague, and he also completely agreed with Cai Chanjuan in his heart.

In the previous incident of the US violence against Sunflower Kindergarten, Cai Chanjuan's performance had already made Zhao Chaogang look at him with admiration. Now, with Cai Chanjuan's sincere consideration for Jingjing, Cai Chanjuan has truly gained Zhao Chaogang's recognition. In the future, Cai Chanjuan will no longer be treated as Jingjing's best friend, but as a real friend.

If Cai Chanjuan knew that it was because of her test against Zhao Chaogang today that she was completely recognized by Zhao Chaogang, I believe she would be shocked.

Of course, Cai Chanjuan said that he would make things difficult for Zhao Chaogang. Therefore, letting Zhao Chaogang taste the tastelessness of life is just the beginning. After making Zhao Chaogang lose consciousness (the five flavors prepared by Cai Chanjuan are very heavy in weight and taste), Cai Chanjuan took many methods to make things difficult for Zhao Chaogang.

Fortunately, Cai Chanjuan's next method was very average, and Zhao Chaogang could easily take it down, which made Zhao Chaogang feel relieved.

Zhao Chaogang spent 40 minutes to deal with Cai Chanjuan's problem. In the meantime, Wen Hai wanted to break through like in Pingping's house, but Cai Chanjuan directly defeated him. Therefore, Zhao Chaogang, who was "single and lonely", had no choice but to accept Cai Chanjuan's embarrassment.

At about ten o'clock, Zhao Chaogang took Liu Jingjing into the wedding car, and the group embarked on the way home, and the wedding ceremony officially began! (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better, updated and faster!
