Datang First Chef

After eating the squid, Mo Wenyuan seemed to have opened the door to a new world. When making food, consciously or unconsciously, he always thought of the content in the Book of Mountains and Seas: Ran Yiyu, which can avoid evil spirits, can make people feel uncomfortable. The 鹸鵌 having nightmares, the Dijiang with four wings... He has verified that the squid tastes like top-grade beef. I don't know what other strange beasts from mountains and seas taste like?

Thinking about it, Mo Wenyuan began to forget. All kinds of meat ingredients that are common in modern times but not in Tang Dynasty flashed in his mind. As a chef, he had to admit that many of the imported ingredients were amazingly delicious. , Hey, I don't know if the taste of mountains and sea spirits will be the same as these ingredients.

Mo Wenyuan woke up suddenly, he realized the danger of his thoughts, he shook his head suddenly, no, no, no, no, one will be less if the monster eats one, it is better to protect animals than the state protection animals, can't eat more, and if he really raises If you become a habit of cooking ghosts, isn't that what the little monsters say, and you really become a big devil with three heads and six arms?

Come on, this character is too scary!

While he was struggling, the kitchen door was slammed with his knuckles, followed by a few lazy bleats, and Mo Wenyuan asked, "What's the matter?"

Li Sanniang said: "Master Huiyuan has sent a letter."

Even when he was away from home, the connection between Mo Wenyuan and Daxingshan Temple was never severed for a single day. Masters and friends often sent letters to Mo Wenyuan, sometimes telling him about new changes in Chang'an City, and sometimes showing him great Lang series of vulgar lectures sometimes asked him if he had put down his magic training, opened the letter paper flat, and read the sincere greetings displayed on the paper, and the warmth flowed in his heart.

He put down his work and opened the letter. The contents on the letter paper were all related to Mo Wenyuan. The first thing he talked about was the matter of the squid, and he said that his name of subduing demons and demons had been known by the abbots and saints of various temples. He also praised him for never relaxing and tempering himself, otherwise it would be impossible for some black sheep to directly surrender the fish.

Mo Wenyuan looked embarrassed, and thought that he was blessed by the sheep, so that he could soar into the sky and face the squid, otherwise he would have no chance of knocking the fish out.He went on to read the letter and found that monk Huiyuan also said another thing in a long length.

"Xi Tian... get sugar?"

……

In the Tang Dynasty, Yangzhou’s officials were set up in a slightly different way from other places. Yangzhou set up the Metropolitan Governor’s Mansion. Need to be in Yangzhou.The real power of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion was in the hands of the chief minister of the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, who was a third-rank official. In the Tang Dynasty, the governor of Zhongshu Province, who was commonly known as the prime minister, was also a third-rank official. His high status can be seen.

Now Li Xiyu is the governor of Yangzhou Dadu, and he is fairly familiar with Mo Wenyuan. He occasionally comes to Li Sanniang's restaurant for dinner, and has met Mo Wenyuan a few times.

Li Sanniang restaurant was born only ten years ago, and it has become a famous restaurant in the whole east. When you eat in the restaurant, you can not only meet officials, aristocrats and noble families, but also meet gods and monsters hidden among ordinary people. You can see in the restaurant. one two.

After receiving the order from Chang'an, Li Xiyu took two small officials to Li Sanniang's restaurant. He was a typical honest official in the early Tang Dynasty. The impression of him has always been good, there are food and ingredients, and there are also factors of conquering the squid. After the squid was born, he praised Mo Wenyuan with a few words, which is considered a good relationship.

As soon as he reached the door, he saw Mo Dalang and his sheep. Mo Wenyuan saw him and asked, "How is Li Changshi today?"

Li Xiyu nodded with a stern face and said, "It's been fine these days." He said, "I have something important to do this time." After speaking, he took out a notebook from his coat sleeve and said, "The sage invites you to return to Beijing. Saint, I hope Mo Dalang will leave for Chang'an immediately."

Mo Wenyuan thanked the saint at that time, took the scripture from Li Changshi's hands respectfully, opened it, and found that there were not many words in the scripture, he only said to let Mo Wenyuan go back, but the reason was not clear.

He said: "Long history knows, why did the sage order me to return to Beijing?"

Li Xiyu said: "I don't know about this."

Mo Wenyuan smiled and didn't ask any more questions, and asked him to go with the two little officials: "Toil Changshi and the two of you, I don't have much money, so I can only invite you adults to have a light meal in the restaurant. Don't refuse." He said again, "I will cook the dishes, please don't dislike me, my lords.

Li Xiyu still put on a majestic face, but his heart moved slightly. According to his usual behavior, he would definitely decline, saying that he had other affairs, so he would not stay. Mo Dalang did it himself.

He turned his head slightly to look at the two little officials, their eyes were already shining with excitement, and they desperately hinted to Li Xiyu: Stay!stay!This is a rare and good opportunity. After passing this village, there will be no such shop!

After struggling for two seconds, he said: "So, thank you Mo Dalang!"

……

Li Xiyu didn't know the reason, but Mo Wenyuan knew it quite well. In his letter, monk Huiyuan mentioned the saint's recent actions, among which was the formation of a team to go to Tianzhu.

Tianzhu is a big country of Buddhism. There are many monks from Tianzhu in the Eastern Tang Dynasty. They are the most familiar with the route to and from the local businessmen. In addition, the last time he went to the West with great momentum was Tang Xuanzang’s journey to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures. This matter is also related to Buddhism. People in the family are closely related, so Li Shimin wanted to send people to the west to get sugar, the first guide he considered was the Buddhists.

Daxingshan Monastery is a site for translation by saints. There are many monks with deep eyes and high noses, including those from Magadha.Some officials went to Daxingshan Temple to talk with the abbot and monk Huiyuan, who was in charge of common things, about the return of the sugar-making method, and asked if they could ask a Magadha monk to lead the way.

The official chatted with him and said about Mo Wenyuan: "I heard that Mo Dalang is Master Huiyuan's disciple?"

"Mo Dalang hasn't been ordained yet, so he can't be said to be my apprentice, but there is a half-master between us. I teach him some common skills, and he comes to Xingshan Temple to cook and eat."

As the saying goes?The official was so dumbfounded that his teeth were about to fall out. He knew that monk Huiyuan was the number one lay monk in the capital, but he never thought that Mo Wenyuan and him, who were famous all over the world in the name of chef and subduing demons, would fall out. What I learned turned out to be vulgar!

Monk Huiyuan was quite mean-spirited, and after seeing the official's change of face, he said slowly: "It's a pity that Dalang's talent in common lectures is not one-tenth of his talent in the other two ways. How much has he learned from me?" Years haven't improved much."

"So that's how it is, that's how it is." The official laughed a few times and murmured in his heart that being able to live as the protagonist of a lay lecture can be regarded as filling the regret of not being a lay monk.

Mo Wenyuan: "Ah Choo—"

No no no no no, I am not going to be a lay monk.

After the episode, the conversation between the two returned to the original track again, and the official said: "The sage saw that Mo Dalang is quite talented in cooking, and he first used Tianzhu granulated sugar in the capital. It would be better if someone has the ability to subdue demons and eliminate demons, so I want to recruit Mo Dalang to go with me." It is impossible for the officials to say this for no reason, and they must have come to test after being taken care of.

Master Huiyuan Ba ​​Fengfu said, "If Mo Dalang knows, he will definitely be willing."

"That's good."

After the dialogue, the official returned to the court. After thinking for a long time, Master Huiyuan sent a letter to Mo Wenyuan about the matter, and the letter was sent to Jiangnan soon after, which made him know it well.

Mo Wenyuan's mood after receiving the letter can be described as ecstatic, much happier than when he discovered Indian sugar back then.As a chef, he understands the role of sugar better than anyone else. Importing granulated sugar is only the first step. There is still a long way to go before the price of sugar can be reduced again and it can become a daily necessity like salt.

The most important thing is to master the technology of refining sucrose and use a large number of domestic sugarcane gardens. As for the purification of sugar color and the production of icing sugar and other things, that is a follow-up matter.

Not long after Li Changshi left, Mo Wenyuan tied the Yi Ya tripod around his waist, led the black sheep with his right hand, and boarded the boat back to Chang'an.

……

After landing in Chang'an, Mo Wenyuan entered the palace non-stop. The government officials were afraid that they were watching his movements all the time. After returning home for a day or two, a small official was waiting at the door of the restaurant to take him into the palace.

As the saying goes, once you are born and you are familiar with each other, this time he was not as nervous as the last time when he met the saint, he was calm and calm, and he had a certain amount of advance and retreat. Said eloquently: "Xiaomin thinks that learning the method of sugar production in Magadha is just one of them, and the local sugarcane planting method is also worth learning."

"Oh?"

"There are many small countries in Tianzhu, and Magadha is one of them. Compared with the Tang Dynasty, which has a vast land and abundant resources, it is too small. However, the small countries can produce so much sugar, which proves that their sugar cane is also enough to supply them. If there is a lot of sugar cane, the planting technology in this country must be very good.”

"There are many sugarcane planting areas in our country. There are a large number of sugarcane plantations in Yangzhou, Jiannan Road, Yizhou, Shazhou, Funan and other places. The area is vast, but the planting technology has not yet formed. If you go to Tianzhu this time, if you can obtain the planting techniques of a small country , the production of sugarcane can be doubled at regular intervals, and then we will be self-sufficient and use our own sugarcane to make our own sugar.”

There are many people of insight in civil and military affairs in the Manchu Dynasty. The strategies that Mo Wenyuan can think of can also be thought of by agricultural officials and civil servants, but Li Shimin is still shocked by Mo Wenyuan's words. Sugarcane planting is very scattered in the country, and few people Pay attention, the hand-picked agricultural officials read a lot of agricultural books and visited various places to find out the planting situation in the territory. Although Mo Wenyuan has magical powers, he has no access to many books. Behind the report of the planting area is a large number of visits And the result of not forgetting to collect data year after year.

He sighed: "It seems that it is a good thing for you to go to the west to get sugar."

Mo Wenyuan: Huh?

I don't know how the sage came to this theory.

……

I don’t know if the sage believed in Mo Wenyuan’s ability or something else, but the way he fetched sugar from the West Paradise was similar to Master Xuanzang’s journey to the West Paradise. Master Xuanzang went to the West Paradise alone, and there were many fellow travelers, but the sage told Mo Wenyuan specifically, If he has any companions, he can also go to the west together. It is also possible to follow the example of Master Xuanzang who brings strange powers and chaos.

Mo Wenyuan thought, the people who went with him... the black sheep must have gone with him. First Tang Xuanzang rode a white dragon horse to Tianzhu, and then he rode the black sheep to Magadha. Maybe he would become famous.He and Zhongheiyang cooperate tacitly and are inseparable. They will definitely go abroad together.

As for the rest, he has a good candidate.

……

Crane Shiliu often walks between the two capitals, and there are countless merchants who have dealt with him. Except for Mo Wenyuan and his family, those merchants and ordinary people don't know what he is. They only know that he works for Li Sanniang's restaurant. He is more noble than a gentleman of a family, yet acts like a porter.Some poets praised Crane Shiliu's demeanor after seeing him. When he held his neck high, he looked like a crane with wings spread out, which was extraordinarily elegant.

When he returned to Beijing this time, he unexpectedly met Mo Dalang, whom he had not seen for a long time. He Shiliu was very happy. Meeting Mo Wenyuan proved that he was lucky again!

What he didn't expect was that Mo Wenyuan actually said something else to him: "I don't know if He Lang intends to go to the west with me?"

"Western Paradise?" He is one of the mounts of the Taoist Taishang Laojun, but he also knows that Western Paradise is a holy place for Buddhism. Before Master Xuanzang returned to Beijing, the story of learning from the Western Paradise was spread all over the Tang Dynasty. His expression changed again and again, and finally He stopped at the mourning and said, "Mo Dalang is ready to enter the Buddhist school? Can he still cook meat after entering the Buddhist school?" The first thing he thought of was the food in the future, he is really a foodie among foodies.

Mo Wenyuan could barely keep up with his out-of-the-ordinary thinking, so he was stunned for a while before he sorted out the order. If he went to the west, he was going to learn scriptures. If he had learned scriptures, he must be a regular monk, so Mo Wenyuan I'm going to be ordained soon, so after officially entering Buddhism, can I cook meat dishes?I can't eat it, how can I do it!Hey, I can only be a vegetarian in the future, and I will be a serious vegetarian crane.

He couldn't laugh or cry: "No, no, I'm not ready to enter Buddhism, the meat still needs to be cooked." He explained, "I went to Xitian not to learn scriptures, but to learn the method of making sugar."

"Oh, oh, oh, I was taken aback." He Shiliu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's great, you can go to the west, and you can get sugar, and there is Mo Dalang on the way, hehe, how can I miss such a beautiful errand?" ?” He wanted to go just for the delicious food made by Mo Wenyuan on the way!

He Shiliu was found by Mo Wenyuan on his own initiative, but later on two other inhumans recommended themselves. The weasel spirit and the Shuo mouse spirit supported themselves on their hind legs, standing on the ground, and eloquently said to him: "Mo Dalang, this trip to the west will bring you a lot of money. Let me wait!"

"But you haven't cultivated human form yet..."

"Although the black sheep is cultivated in human form, doesn't it usually show people in animal form?"

The middle black sheep followed Mo Wenyuan, and when they were arguing, he was lying in the yard basking in the sun. The fat and healthy body of the sheep was spread out, looking wide and long. Looking at his size, I could finally understand why he was so strong. Mo Wen is far away.The sheep's hearing is also very good, and all the slanderous words of Shuoshujing and Weaseljing were heard by the black sheep. He immediately poked his head out and locked the two spirits with sinister eyes.

The weasel spirit and the Shuoshu spirit both have a strong desire to survive. Ever since they were stared at by the two, their hair stood on end, and the fur all over their bodies exploded like a cat.

Mo Wenyuan is a peacemaker, when he saw Zhongheiyang being crushed one-sidedly, he first winked at Zhongheiyang, and then comforted the two spirits: "The sheep just like to keep this shape, not to mention that he is always inseparable from me. I really can't leave him."

Zhongheiyang proudly puffed out his chest.

"If the two of you want to go with me, that's fine, but I'm afraid of scaring other people who are traveling with me."

Shuo Jing protested: "I heard that Master Xuanzang went to the west to learn scriptures, and all the disciples he accepted were not human. How can we not see Master Xuanzang being frightened? What's more, the popular saying of Xuanzang's journey to the west was spread in the Tang Dynasty, and no one has seen it." I'm afraid that Monkey King Zhu Bajie, I can't wait for the little monsters, how can they be scary?"

"Even if you ask me, I can't give an answer. At most, I can ask the officials in charge of related matters, can I take you on the road, first agree, and if you agree, you can only become prototypes and stay here On me." Enormization is absolutely unacceptable.

Shuojing Weasel and the others cheered and promised to agree, only the middle black sheep was left to protest, no way, how can you let them get on you?

How nice of them!

Taking sugar from the west is a big matter. Mo Wenyuan immediately found the official in charge and told the matter. The official heard that there was a weasel spirit, and immediately said: "But the two that Mo Dalang crossed in the early years?" These were very popular back then. No one knows the common saying of Chang'an.

"That's right, it's them. Both of them have devoted themselves to the Buddha after accepting the conversion. They also want to go to Tianzhu with me on this trip to the west."

"If it's them, it's fine." He easily agreed. Anyone who has the power to subdue demons and demons will have one or two subdued spirits. This official is also a person who has seen the world, and he is not surprised by Mo Wenyuan's request. , he also said with a smile, "With Mo Dalang here, the journey to the west must be extremely smooth."

"My lord speaks too hard!"

……

Although the matter of fetching sugar from the West Paradise has been decided, there is still some time before departure, during which the Great Sage turned somersaults to Chang’an to find Mo Wenyuan to beg for food. He was quite happy to hear that he would also go to the West Paradise: "My grandson and you may We can still meet." He said to Mo Wenyuan while throwing beans into his mouth, "Master has learned about the same in various countries in Tianzhu, and he is about to go back. I heard him talk to Guanyin Bodhisattva last time, and he said that he wanted to spread the word along the way. Buddha Dharma, by the way, subdue the cannibal demons, master walk slowly, you walk fast, maybe you can meet them halfway.” According to the normal historical process, Master Xuanzang arrived in Chang’an in the 19th year of Zhenguan, and he had to walk for three years.

Mo Wenyuan asked the monks he knew from Tianzhu how long it would take to go to the west. The monks all said: "If you walk along the Hexi Corridor, you can reach Tianzhu in less than half a year."

The Hexi Corridor is the road that Tang Xuanzang took. In the Tang Dynasty, there were three roads to go from Chang’an to Tianzhu. The most straight line was borrowed from Tubo. After Princess Wencheng entered Tibet, the relationship between Datang and Tubo improved. However, This road needs to cross the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, which is far more difficult than the Hexi Corridor; in addition to this, there is another road that goes from the southwest and needs to cross the Hengduan Mountains.Compared with these two, the road to learn from the Western Paradise is safer.

In the fantasy Tang Dynasty, Tang Sanzang arrived in Tianzhu after walking for about two years. This was because there were many spirits and monsters blocking the way, and he preached Buddhism all the way to save all living beings. The rest of the time he walked in Tianzhu, which is full of small countries. He studied a lot of scriptures and debated with local eminent monks. In addition, there are too many countries in India, and there are constant disputes. It takes a lot of time to change countries, so he stayed for so many years.

After hearing this, Mo Wenyuan said happily: "How is Master Xuanzang planning to go?"

"Master has the intention of propagating the Dharma. On the return trip, he will come back from the northwest to spread the teachings there." His expression was delicate, "However, the master is still exchanging the Dharma in various countries in northern India, and it will take some time before he really embarks on the return journey. "

Mo Wenyuan clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Maybe we can meet." One by one, as long as they follow the official path, the chances of the two meeting will be greatly increased.

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Sun Wukong began to eat and drink. After eating and drinking, he asked Mo Wenyuan to ask him to order more than a dozen yuan of instant noodles, saying that he would bring them to Tianzhu to eat.

Since the appearance of instant noodles, Sun Wukong has often come to buy them. Counting his frequency, he would eat one piece of instant noodles a day.At the beginning, Mo Wenyuan persuaded him to eat healthier and not to eat instant noodles every day, but later he saw that he couldn't stop it, so let it go.

Sun Wukong seemed to have thought of something suddenly, he couldn't even raise his head after eating, and he didn't forget to wave his sleeves. I don't know what kind of method he used to make bamboo tubes of appropriate size stand on the table.

"This--"

"It's used to hold convenience boto," Sun Wukong finally took the time to explain: "It's easy to carry convenience hoto in a bag, but it's not very easy to carry. It's inevitable that there will be bumps and pans during the trip, and it will inevitably encounter heavy rain. I didn’t eat it for a long time, but I took it out at the critical moment to beat the teeth, either the Hoto cake was broken, or I couldn’t eat it after being damp.” Listening to him, he has already experienced a lot.

The most convenient way is to use the Qiankun in his sleeve to hold food, which can prolong the shelf life and insulate it from the humid air. Unfortunately, the space in the Qiankun in his sleeve is filled with scriptures.

The question Sun Wukong mentioned was also the question that Mo Wenyuan had been thinking about before, and he immediately said: "Then dare to ask the great sage, how to solve these changes?"

"I can't talk about solving it, but I try to keep it as good as possible. I'm used to cutting Hoto cakes into small pieces, putting them in bamboo tubes, and then covering them with bamboo lids. In this way, the storage time will be much longer." He said. , "And this method can save the bowl, just put the hot water in the bamboo tube to eat."

Mo Wenyuan received a new inspiration. He also wanted to make cup noodles before. However, there was no waterproof hard paper in Tang Dynasty. Production can't keep up.Today, Sun Wukong's unintentional move gave him a lot of inspiration, and the high-yield, low-cost, slender bamboo tube suddenly caught his eye.

Why not use a bamboo tube to make portable cup noodles?

……

After being inspired by the bamboo tube, another problem that has troubled Mo Wenyuan for a long time was also solved, that is, what kind of glue can seal the mouth of the cup noodles.This problem was not solved after returning to Chang'an. When he was in Jiangnan, he had already seen the magical effect of pine gum.

There are actually many types of glue in the Tang Dynasty. The more common one is glutinous rice glue pressed from glutinous rice paste. In addition, there are various tree juices, such as plum tree water and pine glue. Carpenters along the coast use fish glue to glue furniture. , It is said that the furniture bonded with this method is the strongest, and it will not fall off for many years.

The cost of pine gum is not high, as long as you are willing to collect it, there is nothing to spend except labor costs, and a little gum is enough to seal the mouth of the cup, and it can be used repeatedly: just dig it out, heat it and paste it on the mouth of the cup up.

Of course, this method is not very popular, because except for monkeys like Sun Wukong, who are looking for crispy noodles, most of the porters don’t care much about whether the noodles are wet. For them, cup noodles take up space. Noodles can be taken away with a cloth bag and stored carefully. Compared with this method, the cost of cup noodles is obviously higher, which is not suitable for them.

Mo Wenyuan was not discouraged by this. From behind the cup noodles, he saw a new market, that is, canned products that can be stored for a long time. The principle of keeping cup noodles longer is that there is no air infiltration, and the food is difficult to deteriorate. If It is not noodles but other foods that are placed in a confined space. Can it be preserved for a long time?

He kept this topic in his heart for the time being, and studied it carefully when he had time.

……

There is still some time before going to Xitian. Taking advantage of this time, Mo Wenyuan made sufficient preparations to make his long journey more comfortable.For a chef, the happiness index of life is closely related to the quality of food. Before leaving Chang'an, he made a lot of small snacks that can be stored for a long time.

Zhongheiyang’s mouth is a bit stingy, and after being with Mo Wenyuan for a long time, he can also order food. See him making all kinds of pickled vegetables, biscuits and bread, baa baa baa baa baa baa baa baa baa baa baa baa I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat so much!

Mo Wenyuan laughed dumbfounded: "Meat, isn't there sausages of various colors?"

"Baa baa baa baa baa!" That's different, they have to steam it before eating!Zhong Heiyang stared at Mo Wenyuan with longing eyes and asked: Can you make meaty food that can be eaten immediately without steaming?

Mo Wenyuan pretended to be thinking, but secretly glanced at Zhongheiyang, and saw him looking at him expectantly, his eyes full of starlight, being stared at with such eyes, no matter how hard-hearted a person is, he would not be able to say no The words, let alone Mo Dalang, he is a good-tempered person, and he is easy to talk.

"Do it, do it! Let's make jerky!"

……

It is not difficult to make jerky, but it is not easy to do it well. Mo Wenyuan gestured to the whole pig for a long time before cutting off a piece of lean pork with perfect size and color.

The stuffing for the pork shop can only be made from lean pork. Mo Wenyuan cut the meat with just the right amount of moisture, and the hardness was just right. The blood was locked in the texture of the meat. He sliced ​​it into small pieces with a knife. Then he pulled out a kitchen knife and held the knife in both hands, "Dong dong dong dong dong——"

The meat was chopped into minced meat, the minced meat was fine and sticky, even if it was ground with a meat grinder, and the minced meat cut out by hand did not have the characteristic metal rust smell of the meat grinder, and then he beat the minced meat with a large wooden pestle , making it more robust.

Soy sauce, rice wine, salt, and honey water are added to the minced meat in turn, and then stirred clockwise with chopsticks, and a simple pot of meat is ready.

Mo Wenyuan took out a special plate for grilling, and he brushed a thin layer of minced meat on the rectangular plate.That's right, he doesn't just pursue making ordinary jerky, what he wants to do is, paper pork jerky.

Paper sliced ​​pork jerky, as the name suggests, the thickness of jerky is about the same as that of paper. Its taste is similar to that of ordinary jerky, but the texture is quite different. It is both crispy and firm.

"Fuck-"

"Fuck-"

Small golden oil droplets hang on the dark red meat slices. The jerky is roasted until crispy, and the corners are only a line away from the burnt. The aroma was further magnified during the roasting and rushed into his nostrils. The taste of lard was so fragrant, and the high oil, high salt and high temperature made it even more intoxicating.

Really, wonderful!

The corners of the freshly roasted pork jerky were slightly curled up, and the cooling step was finally completed under Zhong Hei Yang's hungry and thirsty eyes. Mo Wenyuan announced: "It's ready to eat!"

Zhong Hei Yang couldn't wait to throw the jerky into his mouth, and when he closed his teeth, he seemed to hear a "creak" sound. At that time, the crispy shell was unique to the charred edge of the jerky.

After being crispy, it is tight, with entangled texture, the minced meat is pressed firmly, and the degree of adhesion of the meat is higher than that of a whole piece of pork. He had to be patient and practice his teeth to grind them slowly. It is during the grinding process that the aroma of barbecue is further blooming. At the beginning, the tongue licks the surface of the jerky and it feels delicious, but as it grinds away bit by bit, the aroma of pork fills the mouth. Jerky is the essence of pork , it hides the delicacy of a whole pig in its thin body!

Dried meat is the way to eat pork!
