Today, two old classmates came to Lingbao. As soon as they arrived, they held out their hands and said, "Be sure to take us to Hanguguan Scenic Area and get us two boxes of apples from Siheshan and several bags of jujubes. If we don't want these in Lingbao, it means we didn't come, right? " This is easy to handle. However, another student knows a lot about food. Although he didn't speak, I think he must be thinking of something else. Sure enough, as soon as he opened his mouth, he said slowly, "I have nothing but sheep ears!" " "It really hit the nail on the head. I was overjoyed and even called "wonderful"
Actually, before I came to work in Lingbao, I didn't like mutton. The main reason is that the mutton is not cooked well and I can't stand the taste. However, Lingbao's mutton is authentic, attractive and has local characteristics. It is not only economical, convenient and fast, but also suitable for ordinary people to eat, with rich nutrition and good color, smell and taste. As the saying goes: "February sheep, over the wall." But Lingbao is not like this. The mutton restaurant here is extremely prosperous all year round.
I remember a summer a few years ago, a friend who studied Chinese medicine invited me to eat mutton. I was quite surprised at that time: "Can I eat mutton in summer?" The man adjusted his glasses and said with a smile, "Why not? According to medical records, mutton is a wonderful product to help Yuanyang, replenish essence and blood, treat lung deficiency and benefit strain. In Lingbao, it is not only eaten in winter, but also eaten by many people all year round. " Then he said: "Eating mutton in spring can strengthen yang and dispel wind and dampness, eating mutton in summer can sweat and detoxify, eating mutton in autumn is good for respiratory tract, and eating mutton in winter has the effects of tonifying kidney and strengthening yang, warming middle warmer and dispelling cold, warming qi and blood, appetizing and invigorating spleen." I was impressed by what I said, and with master Lingbao's superb cooking skills, I became one of the many mutton diners.
Now that I think about it, the mutton made by Lingbao people is the best. It is not only rich in practices and categories, but also rich in local culture. Take my favorite Lingbao mutton soup as an example. It has a long history and has been handed down from generation to generation for more than 2,000 years. It is said that in the troubled times of the Spring and Autumn Period and the beacon of the Warring States, Qin Dong was forced to attack the six countries. Under the mighty Hangu Pass, hundreds of cauldrons would be built, no matter whether he was sworn out or returned to the DPRK. The pot is boiling, and the cooking must be mutton soup, and there are thousands of big baskets filled with Huang Chengcheng's big biscuits. I often think that under the banner of the hunting army, in the vast wind, the owners of the tigers and wolves of the Daqin Empire will raise their bowls and drink together. What kind of thrilling scene would that be? The separation of homeland, the prospect of spring girlfriends, such as the horseshoe of rain, such as the cry of thunder, the bloodiness and murderous look of iron-blooded men are also generated in an instant. The mood at that moment must be indescribable and complicated. When the strong winds of history are swept away, they all turn into dust. Only this delicious mutton soup has been handed down from generation to generation, nourishing all the people.
Lingbao mutton soup adheres to the production method of "boiling soup in a big pot, cooking in a single bowl, combining broth with vegetable cakes, and making meat and vegetables nutritious", pays attention to the proper use of monosodium glutamate, and pays attention to the taste of "thick but not smelly, fragrant but not spicy, spicy but not spicy, fresh and refreshing, with a long aftertaste", forming a characteristic flavor of "rotten broth is white, Chili peppers are red, delicious and cakes are crisp". Drink mutton soup in Lingbao. Soup can be added for free. It's interesting to say. A few years ago, young people with low wages and big appetites like us were still "cunning" when drinking mutton soup, and the meat did not move. First, they drank the soup happily, and the boss understood at a glance. He often laughs and says, "Brothers have a good appetite! Dude, add another spoonful of soup to everyone, remember to add some seasoning! " At that time, I thought, isn't the culture and spirit of Lingbao people integrated into the thousand-year inheritance of Lingbao mutton soup? Simplicity, kindness, enthusiasm and generosity are the temperament of most Lingbao people. Therefore, in Lingbao, isn't it a wonderful enjoyment to drink a bowl of mutton soup from time to time, savor its firepower and charm, and experience the culture and temperament of Lingbao? It can be said that a bowl of mutton soup is half in the mouth and half in the chest. The so-called "phoenix tree leaves, the world knows autumn", although things are different, the Tao is interlinked.
Really, I sincerely hope that this kind of food with cultural integration can get out of Lingbao better and faster, develop, open up a bigger and bigger consumer market, create a bigger, stronger, more attractive and competitive brand, and create better economic benefits. At that time, my classmate who knew about food drank a bowl of delicious Lingbao mutton soup in his hometown in southern Henan, and he would definitely admire: "Lingbao mutton is really delicious!"
Just thinking like this, I heard someone say, "Go, drink mutton soup!" " "
