Mom taught me a culinary road

My bad describe the level of cooking. In general yes, do not abandon do not give up, diligent practice hand love innovation, and for many years was among the food industry and make unremitting efforts. 

I want to address this ambition, was from my mom together. My mom super talented, but did not feel natural for food. For example, I once found no garlic doing the dishes, my mom would recommend: Do you use onions instead of what is not on the line. There are also doing the dishes once halfway found no cornstarch, and my mother also recommends: Instead of using flour what is not on the line. 

Faced with my picky eater, my mother used to say that: "Health was important, not good have to eat, you eat like them as medicine." My mom There is another famous saying: "To a little perseverance, even no willpower to eat, what do competent get into? "Listen to these words she should understand her very concept of life and food. 

So, the situation is such a case, the fact that such a fact. Mom taught me the food of the road, is a negative example taught me. As for the cuisine of the road yet, mainly in the following few, are the crystallization of my private secrets, important life experience, wisdom. Most people I do not tell him. 

The first lesson is: delicious but scrap. 

For example, is a piece of pork with rind use leftover dish. Another example soup with fish bones. The latter has a nice name, "Malaysian station food", is said to be Reviewed Juqing Xianhuan even by "Malaysian station" this place to eat: leftover fish bones brown fried in oil, add red pepper garlic tofu vegetables boil. The reason it is especially good, because something had to be thrown away, that way of the miraculous. I think this dish "delicious", containing an advantage mental pleasure. 

Read one forget the name of the novel, which was about an excellent cook, a chicken can make sumptuous dishes, chicken wings with what dish you how how, how is the chicken, chicken breast is how, is how the chicken offal , beheaded is how, is how the chicken neck, chicken skin is how, even chicken soup can be how the bones. Just look at so many practices, I felt good, feel particularly take advantage of, especially would be too, especially fully utilized, particularly cost-effective. 

Also take my mother when negative example. My mom is actually willing to spend money to eat this regard, my mom hate those materials corners, I feel they dubious, not nutrition, unhealthy. Our family dinner table, always like to open the Congress, looking gorgeous, thinking disappointed. Cut ribs boss one, is always steamed fish is whole, but also the eternal steamed. I see those big chunks of sliced ​​meat is very mainstream, they do not feel good. 

My mother does not believe this evil, she said, is that the bone bones, how cut or piece of bone, meat is the meat, how to cut all the meat. In her fully embodies the materialist paranoid, she has never heard of "cuisine is too thin" This loading force remarks. 

The second lesson is that there is oil there sauce, fried manure also fragrant. 

Human civilization after the invention of spices across a big step, a nascent primitive killed can not think of something. Just the names of those spices lined up, will feel proud of human civilization. 

Ginger, onion, garlic, vinegar, salt, sugar, soy sauce, tempeh, chili, pepper, star anise, fennel, cloves, cinnamon, basil, cardamom, cumin ...... in fact, I had wanted to, there are so many flavors, for not the delicious dishes are very difficult. 

But someone will be able to really rose to the challenge of. That is my mother. She had heard the most healthy clean boiled fish head, and she even salt and hold, let me eat a white boiled fish head, brain and exercise. - My mother ah, too fishy, I have to stop development of the brain. 

The third experience, courage then bigger, then bigger steps also. 

Some people say, between the dish and the dish was exquisite mix of personality, just like people, not a person, not into a door, but I think sometimes haphazard, an irritation, but the effect is particularly good. 

Twenty years ago I had just started his own cooking, there are times to colleagues home for dinner, her fish stew with tomatoes, so I have not seen the world is amazing. If in my house, all the tomatoes involved in the dish, my mom would always it whole into a sweet and sour taste. Sweet and sour taste of the fish, think about the fear. Unexpectedly, the fish on the table, and even not sweet, but sour, really unexpected but makes sense ah! This move, enlightenment on my poor imagination in food, my colleagues not only teach me to fish, but also teach me to fish up. 

Another time, my colleagues also went home for dinner, her father frog with lotus and lotus and cook a soup, a delicious soup that, needless to say, the key is that this too can think of it? This soup is simply a cooked pond thing. People here feel that flash in the pan, and colleagues father laughs, lotus and lotus leaves are picked in the yard, the frog is not expensive, the key is to match. 

So since then, I think, only I did not expect, did not. In this crazy fucks, I also made ​​a lot of food, specifically on retelling the inconvenience. 

Of course, I also suffered a lot of blows. Because of my cooking level is relatively uncertain, unstable play, did not follow the law, every time with their own feelings uncover the pot raffle, and all have some time to do their own dishes outcome photographed at a friend's hair circle, will be subject to a number of questions, such as someone direct message said, but fortunately only one photo. Others ask me, these dishes, I really can eat forever? So and so, quite hurt my pride. 

But I insist that you do not do dishes, does not mean that can not express their culinary concept. This principle is equivalent to not write the article, it does not mean do not know to appreciate literature. Well written article, you can still write literary criticism. I am self-positioning in the culinary profession, is probably such a positioning. 

I further believe that I am for food, there is an old bachelor, if the attitude of beauty, passion is there, the ambition is there, effort is there, as the results of it, there are no traces of the birds of the sky, but I have to fly too.
