Nights in Jiangnan Water Town are relatively cold.
It's early winter now, so every shop door is equipped with windproof curtains.
These small shops are just like the small shops we used to have when we were young.
When we were young, we had a red brick house, and then we took out the windows and put in glass cabinets.
The cabinet is full of a dazzling array of products.
It's the same here, except that the red brick houses have been replaced by white houses with black roofs.
However, Osmanthus Rice Dew is best drunk when it is white.
It's just that more than two months have passed since Bailu, so naturally I can't drink the freshest one.
But that's not the problem!
Ye Gui searched for a long time before he found a water bar.
There is indeed a sour fragrance of rice dew here.
"Well, that's the smell. The air is filled with a touch of sourness, sweetness and alcohol. It's unmistakable, it's osmanthus rice dew!"
"And the raw materials used to brew the wine are high-quality grains such as glutinous rice and sorghum, so the aroma is very strong!"
"The aroma produced by these grains is very good, but because the raw materials of the grains are really good, the wine is also very rich. It feels like it has been pickled by the alcohol as soon as you come in, and you have already tasted it!"
Ye Gui smiled and said to the boss: "Boss, do you have any sweet-scented osmanthus rice dew?"
"Of course, Osmanthus Rice Dew is our signature product, and everyone in Shantang Street knows about it!"
The boss is a middle-aged uncle. His face is reddish and he smells of alcohol when he speaks.
Yes, you don’t need to guess to know that the boss must have drunk too much.
But in winter, let’s have a glass of white wine and a random dish.
It warms the stomach and nourishes the heart!
"Haha, okay then, let's have some sweet-scented osmanthus rice dew!"
As he spoke, Ye Gui's nose suddenly moved and said: "Boss, I know how to eat mutton from the library!"
He gave a thumbs up to the boss: "Mudu Town Book Collection is located in the hilly area of the western suburbs of Soochow. It has rolling mountains and rich vegetation. It has a unique natural ecological environment suitable for raising sheep, so the sheep raised here have no smell, and
It’s big, has a lot of meat, and is very delicious!”ъìqυgΕtv.℃ǒΜ
"As early as the Ming and Qing Dynasties, farmers at the foothills of Qionglong Mountain were engaged in the sideline business of killing sheep, roasting mutton, and selling mutton. They generally operated by selling or stall selling. It was only in the late Qing Dynasty that they began to open shops and workshops in Dongwu City, that is, sheep
Written in the 22nd year of Guangxu's reign, Zhou Xiaoquan from Zhoujiachang, a collection town, went to Dongwu Jufang
The city's first dine-in mutton shop, 'Shengmeizhai', was opened by the bridge. After Xuantong, 'Lao Yixing' and 'Lao Xiexing' mutton shops were opened in Duting Bridge and Linton Road respectively. A hundred years ago, the city opened
Sheep farming gradually increased, and 'Laoyuanxing' was opened in Daoqian Street, Yadanqiao, Loumentang and other places.
’, ‘Xin Dehe’ and other well-known stores.”
"Now, mutton has become an authentic delicacy of Soochow, and mutton and mutton soup have become one of Soochow's favorites!"
"Zangshu mutton is braised in white, the soup is milky white in color, rich in aroma, the meat is crispy but not rotten, and the taste is fresh but not greasy!"
The boss couldn't help but said: "Huo, young man, you know a lot, you are a professional!"
"Have you eaten? Do you want to eat together?"
Ye Gui smelled the fragrance and was already very greedy: "This is not good, is it too disturbing?"
"What's the trouble? I'm here!"
The boss couldn't help but said, "You sit here for a while, and I'll bring out the pot!"
He walked into the room and first took out a casserole.
The casserole at this moment basically only contains soup, and the rich mutton soup is very delicious.
The milky white color looks like a piece of white paper.
Then the boss took out the small table and induction cooker, as well as two chairs.
"Wait a minute, I'll get the meat!"
In a pot, a large amount of mutton was stewed.
The uncle directly put all the mutton in, then turned on the induction cooker and waited for heating.
"Young man, do you know how to drink? Have a drink?" the uncle asked with a smile.
In his hands were two wine glasses.
This wine glass is probably worth three taels per cup!
"Okay, but I want to drink a cup of osmanthus rice dew before drinking!"
Ye Gui chuckled, and the uncle immediately put down the cup.
Men's friendship is so simple, a glass of wine is enough for two people to become friends forever.
If I had a few more drinks, maybe the seniority would change.
"Hold on!"
Soon, the uncle brought over the sweet-scented osmanthus rice dew.
This cup of osmanthus rice dew should be made from the same raw materials as the white wine in the uncle’s cup, both of which are home-brewed.
The scent is exactly the same, the only difference is that it is stronger and lighter.
After taking a sip of the sweet-scented osmanthus rice dew, the fragrance of the sweet-scented osmanthus made the whole person feel better.
Alcohol can numb people's nerves, dispel severe cold, and warm people up.
"It's great. I feel more appetizing after drinking it!"
"Come on, young man, have a drink!"
When the uncle saw that Ye Gui's state had returned, he immediately picked up the wine glass.
