Taste and Taste (3) (1)

Five years have passed in the blink of an eye-from the last article.

What have I been doing for the past five years? -I'm going to build my baking theory.

Through the roaster made by myself, the appearance that I think coffee should have is gradually clear.

Many people say that coffee is foreign, so what we see now is to learn foreign coffee culture, coffee knowledge, including coffee tasting and tasting, to visit foreign masters, and to be complacent.

The so-called foreign country is actually the United States, a country with extremely poor food, an imperialist who uses the economy as a force, a strong market and cold-blooded management to unify the global power. Unscrupulous and greedy promotion of American-style democracy-- hiding huge interests in American-- and tiny Taiwan Pick up the trash that fell from the giant's mouth behind the giant.

There is no denying that those bastards have also created Taiwan's economic miracle, and we have also relied on them to nourish them for those years.

Just thought of the associated also ruined the root of the culture, but also unjustly murmured-

Speaking of the word "coffee", in the final analysis, it is not a product of Taiwan. Although it has experienced Portugal, Spain, England, Japan and American aid, it has always been a symbol of nobility for 400 years-the power and nobility shown by foreigners entering and leaving Taiwan.

This is not to say culture, but coffee is swallowed through the mouth, this short distance of less than ten centimeters, but it is the cultural distinction between different races.

Food is the most important thing for the people, and if they want to live, they must first have enough to eat. How do you eat it? Have you ever thought about it?

In all folk customs, the first gods are probably the gods of fertility, and the next gods should be gods related to food, mountain gods, sea gods, river gods, lake gods, land, and many foods. even a lot of food has gods that belong to this food. what is the main task of these gods? -the supply of food-almost all rituals are inseparable from [food]. Good-bye asks the gods to protect the prosperity of the country and the people. The reason behind this is that they hope to have the manpower and material resources to plant and produce food.

What would you like to eat? Rely on the mountain to eat the mountain, rely on the sea to eat the sea Where there is water, there are plants, where there are plants, there are animals-where there are animals, there are people. People can't create food-can only choose food-- where food is where people are. In many places, only a small variety of food can be produced-- you see, places all over the world that produce a large amount of food are probably concentrated in a few areas, not if you want to grow it, but you can raise it if you want to raise it Or it should be said that it is the distinction between the cultures of different regions.

Because different foods lead to different cultures-- of course, different foods also make people in each region eat and handle food differently. People in each region have their own food culture and taste that are unique to other regions-before the means of transportation were so developed in ancient times, this distinction was very clear. It is clear that if you don't eat the food of your own culture, you may die.

This clear distinction gives rise to [specialty], which means that there are no other places here, so people travel and always bring back a few [specialties] in order to prove that they are here. Since it is a specialty, it is necessary to follow the mountain! Water! Season, how to plant it? How to catch it? How do you cook it? Wait a minute. There is even a special way to eat it.

So now many regions have to stipulate that from the beginning of origin, the food in their own area must be prepared in one way or another in order to represent their region. Because it's their tradition, their culture.

Where does this regulation and insistence on food come from? It comes from the sense of taste they produce from the long-term consumption of food in this area.

Every race in his region has an inseparable connection between the land, water and air of the region and the food bred from it, which he has established for a long time. This connection cannot be erased even if it leaves the region for countless generations.

Even if this leaves the region for countless generations, it cannot be separated from the indelible relevance of the food in the region-I call it the taste system.

Each race has its own taste system that originated in the region of its own ethnic origin.

Will this [taste system] change?

Will

When you think your food culture is lower than other people's food culture, you will give up your taste system-

Taste and Taste (III)

Have you given up your taste system?

In fact, you don't care to give up or not to give up!

Because you are ignorant of the so-called taste system, because you are ignorant of the taste system, you can easily accept the taste system of other races and regions.

How long has it been since your parents haven't cooked a good meal? How long has it been since your parents didn't go to the vegetable market properly? How long has it been since your parents didn't prepare a meal properly and carefully?

Of course, [your parents] can also be changed to [you], but I believe that nowadays people, especially young people, should not have the ability to arrange a table of food. Perhaps your elders will have this ability?

In ancient times, almost all people had this ability, and there was often a table of people coming to eat at home, do you know? Eating at home is a very important thing in maintaining relationships. [dinner] in many cases, this matter is very political. You may have to be honest, or you may have to open your heart, or you may have to meet people from ear to ear, but most of the time it is the ultimate expression of friendship. Coming to dinner at home is a very important thing-because you show your sincerity by spreading out your most private side in front of your colleagues and friends.

However, when the economy takes off and wealth increases, there are fewer and fewer opportunities to eat at home, and there are more and more opportunities to eat in restaurants. The ostensible reason is that people are getting busier and busier, and there is no time to arrange a meal any more. In fact, it is because the human heart is becoming more and more false and does not want people to see the real side.

The ability to arrange a table of food!

Do you have?

If not, then I'm pretty sure you don't have a [taste system]-- I'm afraid you don't even have a basic taste ability.

The number of people at a table is about 8-10 people. Today you have invited 10 people to eat at home. These 10 people must be people you know or know well, otherwise you will not invite them to dinner. You should prepare the menu according to their preferences. 10 people should have at least 10 courses, plus two soups, plus appetizers, desserts and drinks.

You're going to buy some food--

Where would you buy it?

People who don't have a taste system will go to the supermarket to buy, to the mall to buy, to buy processed ones, to buy packaged ones, to use a lot of seasonings.

But people who can run a table of food and wine will go to the traditional market to buy vegetables, pick out fresh vegetables in season, pick fish from fishmongers, discuss which piece of meat they want with meat stalls, and see what the fish is like today and the color of the meat. every time the vegetable market is a war, you never know what kind of food today's market will have-- a lot of seasonal food, only for a few days! You need to be familiar with the source and timing of the purchase of vegetables, fish and meat vendors. If the goods he provides cannot satisfy you, you have to have a more upstream supply, or you need to know who can supply what you want in other vegetable markets. If not, you may have to go to the place of origin to buy it.

The food has been bought back. If you want to cook, who will cook it? Of course, I made it myself. When I was a child, around my house, almost every family had the ability to cook meals for 1 to 20 people. Many of them were big families, and they had to eat by turns. Everyone's preferences were different. If you don't do well, you will be scolded at any time. If you do a good job, you can retain a lot of people-- in those days, many people actually had few job opportunities and income, and almost all the stores had to provide food and accommodation, and whether the food was good or not sometimes had a decisive impact.

Throughout the year, you have to be familiar with the products of each season and solar terms. If you want to be able to pick the most timely food, you will never buy frozen food. Of course, the frozen and refrigerated technology was not developed at that time, but you must buy what is in season, kill and fish now, and even more powerful people will order meat from someone in a certain place with a butcher.

At that time, there were no seasonings, they were all natural. The soup was boiled with big bones and chicken bones for 5-6 hours. Stewed soup was stewed at least once a day, and ingredients should be added at any time. Whenever you cook a meal, Steamed Rice with Red-Cooked Pork can eat.

And the situation I'm talking about above is not that chefs in hotels and restaurants are buying. It was something that most families with more than five to six people could and must do before 1949, when many people were still alive

Today, if you do not have the ability to go to the market to buy a table of dishes, you tell me how good your sense of taste, I will say that you are farting -!

Don't lie to people. You can't even tell Chinese cabbage, Chinese cabbage, Penghu cabbage, Yantai cabbage, what kind of taste you're talking about.

I'm not describing the good times that are gone-- I just want to tell you that if you don't have such direct purchasing experience, you directly know the source of the food you eat, have the ability to test the food, and have the ability to cook and prepare the food. where does your basic taste come from? You can't smell a few bottles of essence and say you know the sense of taste, right?

Taste and Taste (III)

Why go to the vegetable market? Because it's a living taste, not those bottles that are already dead-why do you want to cook a meal, because what you ate in those days, especially at home, was the real taste?

What is the real smell?

You can buy the food produced around the mountain in the hillside market. You can buy the food produced by the sea in the seaside market. Of course, the food bred around the river can be bought by the river.

Think about where human culture begins.

River--

Why do most cultures come from rivers? Because rivers go from high mountains to low seas-and the energy of the planet is released directly from the energy of the planet. As Rain Water slowly releases down the river, different mountains contain different energies, different soils contain different energies, different rivers contain different energies, and these energies eventually flow to the sea, so different seas have different energies, which return to the planet itself due to the pulsation of ocean currents.

Different regions have different foods, and the food chain that extends from this food, so people in the mountains will not eat the same food as people by the sea, because different foods are handled and eaten differently, because this is different, so people in the mountains and people by the sea have different eating systems from the very beginning. The diet system later evolved into a taste system.

What's the difference between the diet system and the taste system? To put it simply, the diet system is the food chain, which refers to the causal relationship between the food sources of the region and the food. The taste system, on the other hand, refers to how to determine the value of each food in the food chain.

The people on the mountain, the people by the sea, along the river, where they crossed the river, exchanged their surplus food for other people's surplus food, thus resulting in the bazaar. This [bazaar] has led to the intersection of food from different places. The [bazaar] itself does not produce food, the [bazaar] is produced by the gathering and exchange of food, because this [bazaar] has given rise to a variety of industries. At the beginning of its formation, [bazaar] [barter], trade mine for yours. But this gives rise to problems such as disproportionate value and disproportionate demand. One is the question of consideration, and the other is the demand of intermediaries, which gives rise to [currency] and [comprador]. After these two problems are solved, more and more food is shipped to the bazaar, of course, the problems of clothing, housing, transportation, education, pleasure and so on are also included.

People on the mountain, people by the sea, the original inherent taste system is integrated in the riverside bazaar. This integration strengthens the [bazaar]'s decision-making power over food choices.

So you will find that all taste systems have something to do with [rivers].
