Tomato Supernatural Tips: Rat Eaters and Rat Complaints
First of all, Tomato would like to thank all the book friends for their compliments and support. It is your support that has supported Little Tomato all the way. Although I thought about it many times, but then I thought about it, you have to have a beginning and an end.
It's not interesting. As the book progresses, the intention in the outline has been almost arranged. Many of our "brothers" will appear again. When the "brothers" appear again, it will undoubtedly be at the end of the book.
[Rat-eating] Without further ado, let’s get to the point. When the rat-eater’s intentions begin, I believe many book lovers will feel sick. I believe many will find it incredible to eat rats. Tomato
I thought the same way before, thinking that those must be weirdos. There is a popular saying in Tomato's hometown: "Eat rat meat, and you will grow rat beans; eat rat food, and you will grow rat sores." I don't know when it was spread.
, but the words passed down by the ancestors still have their truth after all, and Tomato is convinced of this.
However, what he didn't expect was that the principle he had always adhered to was overturned after talking to a few book friends, because Tomato found that they didn't care about eating mice. One of them was called "Flying Feather"
The book friend even joked with Tomato that she just likes to eat mice. I really don’t know how you can’t like eating such delicious food. The person who made this statement must want to eat alone!!
Well, Tomato admitted that when he heard what this female book friend said, Tomato was completely confused. After asking about it, he found out that she was from Guangdong (later, out of curiosity, I chatted with her a few more words. After all,
I've never heard of this kind of thing. I only knew that Cantonese people like to eat cats. I didn't expect that they even eat rats. Do they really want to have a "Tom and Jerry" dinner...) She said that rats are actually very
It's delicious. It tastes similar to rabbit. If it's the kind of rat on the mountain, it tastes even better.
Later, Tomato also found out that it was not only Guangdong but also Guangxi that were accustomed to eating rats. The book friend below was from Nanning, Guangxi. He said that when he was a child, in his hometown, there were rats selling on the street and in the vegetable market.
There were often cages of wild rats for sale, mostly sugarcane rats (rats that lived in sugarcane fields all year round), mountain rats and voles. At that time, they cost more than two yuan each. The fur color of sugarcane rats was mostly tawny or gray.
It is characterized by a rounder body and a shorter tail. The meat of this kind of mouse is fatter and is mostly used for barbecue. If the mouse is less than half a kilogram, it cannot be put on the table. Only mice with more fat meat will be delicious when grilled.
Regardless of whether it is Guangdong or Guangxi, their favorite type of mouse is the mountain rat. As the name suggests, it is a rat from the mountains. This kind of rat is more expensive and is characterized by full black and shiny hair, a long tail, and one weighs a pound.
There are many mountain rats, and their tails can grow to more than one meter (it is said that the teeth and tails of rats grow every day, but the tails that grow to more than one meter are indeed a bit weird). This kind of rat is relatively
It is difficult to catch, but it is also more delicious. Because it grew up in the mountains, the meat is hard and chewy, so this kind of rat can be chopped into pieces and cooked more often in braised dishes.
Next is the field mouse, which is a mouse that grows up near farmland. This kind of mouse is close to farmhouses and is no different from a house mouse. This kind of mouse has a shorter mouth, a short and small tail, and matte fur. It is a common mouse and is also a common mouse among villagers.
Eat more. In rural areas of Guangxi, the most common foods eaten are cane rats and field mice, and there is a magical saying in their hometown that "one rat is worth three chickens", which means that they would rather eat rat meat than chicken. If you have the opportunity, go
In the rural areas of Guangxi, if eating rats is popular there, going to sweet potato fields or sugar cane fields to hunt rats at night is also a good entertainment activity.
His uncle used to have more than 40 mouse traps. Whenever night fell, he would ride a motorcycle out to set mouse traps in the fields. It sounded similar to the hunters in Daxinganling, but the meaning was so different.
When it's daylight, go out and collect the traps. You can't collect the traps too late. At dawn, the mice will bite off their own legs and escape (this stuff is strong enough, just like sparrows). You can only collect the traps when it's still dark.
Go collect it. Sometimes when you go late, you will often see only mouse thighs on the clips. When he was in junior high school, there was a time when there were six or seven clips at home. He would put the clips before going to evening self-study, and then get up and go again the next day.
I often received rat thighs, which made me very depressed at the time.
However, he once caught a mouse that weighed three pounds and seven taels. It was the largest mouse he had ever seen. This mouse was enough for his family to cook a large table of dishes the next day, which was known as a full rat feast. However,
, now they no longer use mousetraps to catch mice in their hometown, they use electric mice instead, which is to surround a wire and wire it in areas where there are many mice. It is very efficient to catch mice immediately. Mousetraps are too troublesome, and sometimes they can only be caught
It's depressing enough to touch a mouse's thigh.
Two rat delicacies have to be mentioned here:
Food 1: [Ninghua Dried Mouse] is actually dried voles, which are processed from artificially captured voles. Every winter is the best time for Ninghua farmers to catch mice, especially after the beginning of winter, which is the peak season for mouse hunting.
The method of trapping rats is simple, and most people use "bamboo tube mousetraps". Every evening, people carry mousetraps on their backs, use rice or rice as bait, and look for rat trails in fields and mountains. Whenever they encounter a rat trail or a rat hole, they will
Then put the mousetrap and collect it early the next morning. The capture rate is usually around 3/10. In frosty weather, the capture rate can be as high as 5/10 or more. When the mouse-catching season comes, teenagers still use mouse-catching as a way to do it.
It is a kind of fun, so there are many young people who engage in rat catching.
The processing method of dried field mice is to first remove the hair. The captured mice are either steamed with hot water in a pot or baked in hot firewood ash. As long as the heat is controlled properly, all the mouse hair can be plucked out. Secondly,
The intestines and intestines are removed by caesarean section and washed with water. Finally, they are smoked and roasted with chaff or rice bran until they turn into a yellow sauce. Dried field mice are not only delicious, but also contain high protein and are rich in nutrients. They are particularly good at nourishing the kidneys and are good for frequent urination.
It has significant curative effect on bedwetting in children, so it has certain medicinal value. Since local people generally like to eat dried rats, there has always been a saying that "dried rats are worth the price of pork." When winter comes, people almost all eat dried rats as a snack.
A kind of enjoyment. Most of the cooking methods are to stir-fry and eat it with pork, winter bamboo shoots, garlic, ginger, water and wine. Especially people who like to drink, regard it as a top quality wine pairing.
Food 2: [Child rat three squeaks] An authentic Cantonese famous dish. It is characterized by placing rat babies that are no more than three days old, just able to crawl but not hairy, on a plate, and served with oil and salt sauce.
Vinegar, ginger and other condiments. The eating rules are as follows: Use chopsticks to pick up the little mouse. At this time, it will definitely make a "squeak", and you can even see its small black eyes looking at you. This is a
Squeak; then take the mouse and roll it around in the dish of oil, salt, soy and vinegar, and the little thing will definitely make a second whine, which is the second squeak; finally, put the little thing dipped in the seasoning into your mouth.
, its last squeak is complete!
ps: The book friend from Guangdong is very unfamiliar with this dish. Although she lives in Guangdong and likes to eat mice, she has never heard of these dishes, and said that this way of eating is indeed a bit cruel. Of course, regardless of Guangdong
Whether or not this dish exists, I would never dare to eat small tomatoes. I have no choice but not to eat them.
If you book friends read this and feel that eating rats is not so terrible and want to try the taste of rat meat, Tomato feels the need to remind you. Just now Little Tomato said the saying from his hometown, "Eat rat meat and grow rat beans."
"If you eat rat food, you will get rat sores." What our ancestors said is not unreasonable. From a medical and health perspective, since each rat has different physiological properties, some carry disease germs, and some are healthy, just like humans. In this way
The mice are edible.
But if you meet a rat with a hot virus on it, and you are lucky enough to eat it or the fruit it has chewed, etc., you will easily be infected by the virus. The most serious one is plague, but plague is now
It can be cured, but the incubation period of this disease is long and it is not easy to feel it in the early stage. In the middle stage, symptoms such as low fever, thirst, and irritability will appear. If it reaches the late stage, it is generally not easy to cure. So if you are among the book friends
If you have come into contact with rat meat or eat vegetables, fruits, meat, etc. that are suspected to have been bitten by rats, and you feel unwell, book friends should take it seriously. Xiaotomato is not an alarmist. Safety comes first, and life is precious!
[Rat Complaint] I once read an article on Tomato. It was a long time ago. I forgot where I saw it. Anyway, it probably means that among animals, rats spend the longest time with people, so they are the ones who understand best.
Human language is also the most spiritual, so sometimes when putting rat poison and mouse traps in the house, adults are very careful and never express it in words. Tomato remembers that when I was a child, I once put out rat poison.
I asked my mother where I kept the rat poison. My mother quickly asked me to keep my voice down, saying that I don’t want the rats to hear it, as this stuff is very creepy.
Killing and eating rats too much will inevitably lead to resentment. The following real horror story is about eating and killing rats too much, which leads to resentment among rats.
The protagonist of the story is Wang Siping, who is now 28 years old. He rented an apartment building outside the Fifth Ring Road in Beijing. What he saw was on the fourth floor. He lived there for three years, and in the fourth year
, he finally decided to let his woman Xiaoxue move in, so that he could end his twenty-eight-year bachelor life, so Wang Siping decided to use the weekend to clean the house first, and then see how to decorate it, and arrange it in a warm two-person house.
world.
Xiaoxue came to the house early in the morning and brought several necessary tools for cleaning. After putting on masks and paper hats, the two of them started cleaning in a decent manner. Fortunately, Xiaoxue was smart enough and prepared a lot of garbage bags.
Otherwise, Wang Siping would not be able to remove the garbage that had accumulated in the house for three years from the fourth floor. They put the garbage in garbage bags and threw it into the garbage room downstairs.
While Wang Siping admired his vision in finding a girlfriend in his heart, he panted upstairs. Finally reaching the fourth floor, Wang Siping wiped his sweat and decided to carry only two garbage bags down this time. But his hand just touched
When they arrived at the garbage bags placed in the living room, Xiaoxue's screams came from the only bedroom.
Jiang Siping immediately sprinted at a speed of 100 meters, rushed to Xiaoxue's side in the blink of an eye, and asked: "Xiaoxue, what's wrong?" Then his eyes quickly scanned the room, and there was nothing unusual.
But Xiaoxue hugged him, her petite body trembling. She stretched out her hand tremblingly, pointed to the corner of the room, and said: "Siping, there are... there are mice..."
