As the hometown of vinegar, people still have a cool legacy. If you visit the rural backcountry of Shanxi in midsummer, you will find that the villagers are under the scorching sun. Put a big jar of stuffy hemp paper, and use the "old man" (vinegar jar) to dry vinegar, and the vinegar jar needs to keep moving, because it has to follow "grandpa" (the sun). Seeing this scene, the scene of "every family has a jealous jar and everyone is a vinegar maker" in Shanxi will definitely come to mind. It is a fact that Shanxi is the production base of vinegar. Now there are more than 65,438+000 vinegar factories in the province. In addition to Qingxu mature vinegar, there are Lingchuan Yuquan mature vinegar, Huguan Xinzhai mature vinegar and Yuci Nanbao mature vinegar. Varieties include mature vinegar, famous special vinegar, double vinegar, mature vinegar, special vinegar, gold vinegar, seasoning vinegar, smoked vinegar and so on. The same variety of vinegar can be divided into various varieties according to the different raw materials and production techniques. It is really dazzling and has its own characteristics. People say that Shanxi is a good place, with fertile land, beautiful water and more fragrant vinegar. Shanxi people are good at making vinegar, because Shanxi people love to be jealous, and Shanxi people love to be jealous, which can really be called the best in the country. There is a saying in Shanxi that vinegar is tasteless.
Shanxi people are good at brewing and being jealous, so they are called "old ladies". In ancient times, vinegar was called acyl, the person who brewed vinegar was called acyl, and vinegar was called old acyl. So jealousy is not jealousy, but "eating sugar". Due to the special contribution of Shanxi people to vinegar making and their love for vinegar, coincidentally, the word "acyl" and the word "west" in Shanxi are homophonic, so people from other provinces respectfully call Shanxi people "Shanxi old acyl". "Old Xi 'er" should really write a great book about his contribution to vinegar, because vinegar has so many functions. Besides a lot of acetic acid, vinegar also contains calcium, iron, lactic acid, glycerol, amino acids and aldehydes. Vinegar is not only the first condiment that can be tasted, but also a good product for human health. Edible, it can dissolve calcium and iron in food, which is convenient for human body to absorb, and can also be used to remove radish, cabbage, garlic and other foods. Medically, vinegar is used as medicine to promote hair growth and beauty. The effect of lowering blood pressure and losing weight. In the fourth year of Qing Qianlong, Jingshitai Hospital concentrated on famous doctors all over the country and concocted "Ding Kundan" to treat blood stasis of maids. More than 20 kinds of traditional Chinese medicines are all processed with aged vinegar.
For thousands of years, people have found that vinegar has many wonderful uses, and jealousy is indeed a good living habit. However, there is another saying about jealousy. This kind of "vinegar" is said to have originated in the Tang Dynasty. Emperor Taizong wanted to marry a concubine for a minister named Fang, but the minister's wife objected. Emperor Taizong had no choice but to let the minister's wife choose between drinking poisoned wine and concubinage. The minister's wife is also a little strong-willed, picking up the poisoned wine and gulping it down. When the minister's wife finished drinking with tears, she found that there was vinegar in the cup, leaving this "jealous" story. That's why the "frustrated" people in later generations regard the "proud" people as "jealous" people, which may be related to westerners calling orientals "jealous orientals".
Question 2: Is Shanxi people's skin good? Shanxi is located in the Loess Plateau, with a dry, windy and water-deficient climate. In order to cope with dry skin, ancient Shanxi people secreted a lot of oil to prevent dehydration and peeling of the skin. However, excessive oil secretion can easily lead to acne and blackheads, which is also the price paid for adapting to the environment. According to my observation, Shanxi people's skin is really oily and horny.
Therefore, the skin of Shanxi people is naturally worse than that of Sichuan or Jiangnan water towns.
Question 3: Please briefly analyze why Shanxi people, Guangdong people and Shandong people have different personality characteristics. One side of the soil and water raises one side, which is the deepest feeling after going to college You will find that when we discuss the topic, most students in the same place end up saying the same sentence. However, no matter where it is, it can't be generalized, which is somewhat arbitrary. People everywhere have good and bad. The Shanxi people I met were a little selfish. Guangdong people are rich in gold and diamonds. I think a quarter of Shandong people are from Shandong. Oh, well, why do you ask? These are all related to your own feelings, not necessarily!
Question 4: Who can clearly talk about the style of Shanxi people and what are their main characteristics? The Shanxi people discussed in this paper are neither China people in the general sense nor Shanxi people in the individual sense, but Shanxi people in the special sense, that is to say, taking the specific people who have lived, studied and worked in Shanxi for a long time as the object of investigation. This kind of research is different from the macro-study in the general anthropological context and the micro-study aimed at seeking individual psychological characteristics and personality structure, but comes from the meso-study of the cultural ecology of specific groups. In the contrast between history and reality, in the interweaving of phenomenon and essence, this paper uses social psychology and cultural anthropology to explore the discourse transformation and time variation of Shanxi people's personality reconstruction and reconstruction through critical reflection on Shanxi people's personality.
First, the regional cultural differences of Shanxi people's personality
Generally speaking, the formation of individual personality is greatly influenced by heredity, family and school, while the formation of group personality is greatly influenced by geographical environment and has obvious regionality. As the saying goes, it is this truth that one side of the soil and water raises one side.
First of all, Shanxi people, as China people, undoubtedly have the personality characteristics of ordinary China people. For example, in his book My Country and My People, Lin Yutang summed up the character of China people into eight points: maturity and integrity, patience in adversity, passive seclusion, detachment from the old, pacifism, contentment, humor, and conformism. In novels such as Diary of a Madman and The True Story of Ah Q, Lu Xun mercilessly exposed and criticized China people's national character and bad habits, holding that "it is indisputable to mourn their misfortune and anger them". In Ugly China, Bai Yang ridiculed some China people as "maggots in the sauce jar".
Secondly, Shanxi people, as northerners in China, have the characteristics of northerners. As far as the north and south of China are concerned, the north often means drought, cold, barrenness, tenacity and grandeur, while the south is synonymous with warmth, wetness, richness, development, softness and beauty. The Yellow River and the Yangtze River, two rivers that gave birth to Chinese civilization, are also different. One is famous for being bold, and the other is famous for being weird. Liang Qichao advocated "South Old and North Confucius": Confucianism became the mainstream representative of northern culture in philosophy, while Taoism embodied the spiritual temperament of southern culture. The differences and conflicts between North and South are the same in foreign countries, such as North Korea, Japan, Vietnam, the United States and Britain.
Finally, the unique geographical environment in mountainous areas has created the personality characteristics of Shanxi people who are mountainous and lack of water. Shanxi is located in the eastern part of the Loess Plateau, with Taihang Mountain in the east, Lvliang in the west, Hengshan Mountain and Wutai Mountain in the north and Zhongtiao Mountain in the south, with a mountainous area of about 70%. There are more mountains and less water, and the water resources are seriously insufficient, so Shanxi people have more mountains and more water (for example, more stability and less mobility, more principles and less flexibility, more closed and less open, more Confucian traditions and less Taoist thoughts, more simplicity and less glitz, etc.). ).
The character of Shanxi people is basically determined and derived from this: high mountains block people's way and narrow their horizons; Traffic congestion makes people's information closed and internal and external communication underdeveloped; Long-term farming life with the land has made them have a deep affection with the land, staying in the land, moving to other places, and homesickness, which has become a lingering youth complex, flowing into the blood and injecting into the bone marrow, which has marked their living habits, ways of thinking and cultural ecology with a distinct yellow land brand, with strong local flavor and local characteristics. As Confucius said: "The knower enjoys water, and the benevolent enjoys Leshan. Those who know move, those who are good are quiet. Those who know are happy, and those who are benevolent are longevity. " A wise man is like running water, unchanging, stagnant and happy; Benevolent people are like mountains, thick and unchangeable, unattainable and endless. Zheng Banqiao, one of the eight eccentrics in Yangzhou, said: "The wall stands a thousand miles, and there is no desire; There are hundreds of rivers and great tolerance. " It is also the selflessness of mountains and the compatibility of water. Using mountains and rivers to compare human nature can be described as appropriate and in line with reality. In addition, the same Shanxi people, influenced by subculture, show obvious regionality, such as northern Shaanxi people are rough and martial, Jinzhong people are smart and business-oriented, and southern Shanxi people are elegant.
Question 5: What kinds of cereals are abundant in Shanxi? One side of the soil and water support one side. Jinnan is rich in wheat, while Jinzhong and southeastern Shanxi are rich in millet, corn, sorghum and soybeans. Naked oats, buckwheat, soybeans and potatoes are abundant in northern Shanxi and other high mountain areas. As a folk song sings: "People say that Shanxi has good scenery, fertile land, beautiful water and delicious food." These miscellaneous grains have created a unique material foundation for the development of Shanxi pasta culture.
Miscellaneous grains contain protein, amino acids, various trace elements and minerals, which are irreplaceable by other foods. In order to further promote miscellaneous grains food, we collected 39 kinds of miscellaneous grains food, which can be said to be representative, basically covering the production and eating methods of miscellaneous grains varieties in various regions of Shanxi.
Question 6: What are the main tastes of Shanxi? There is a saying in Shanxi folk; "Drink soup first, and you won't get hurt all your life." It is a "dietary norm" for many residents to drink soup and rice before eating dry rice. This is very reasonable from a health point of view. Eating steamed stuffed buns, cakes and other dry food, most people have to cook rice soup or noodle soup, and families with conditions have to cook soup such as camellia oleifera. ...
First, the dietary characteristics of Shanxi people
Shanxi pasta is famous all over the world, and local snacks is even more famous. It is well known that Shanxi people are jealous. The first greeting when Shanxi people meet is "eat".
Food is the most important thing for the people, and Shanxi people like to eat miscellaneous grains. The combination of dry rice and porridge, the adjustment of staple food and miscellaneous grains, from north to south, there are many kinds of patterns and flavors. It is cold in the north of Shanxi, and they like to eat high-calorie oat noodles, yam eggs, corn and so on. Take radish, tofu and pickles as non-staple food. In most areas of Xinzhou Jinzhong, sorghum and corn are the staple foods, and pickles and sauerkraut are reserved for meals. Most areas in southern Shanxi like to eat cakes and steamed bread, and people in southeastern Shanxi have a strong interest in millet. It is true that one side of the soil and water support one side.
Second, eating habits.
1, daily eating habits
Three meals a day in most parts of Shanxi, and five or six meals a day in some places like Yangcheng. In winter, when leisure days are short, it is generally changed to two meals, which is called "one morning". People call a meal a meal. Breakfast is called "breakfast", lunch is called "lunch" and "lunch", and dinner is called "dinner". Generally, when doing heavy manual work, it is called "making a meal with cake" between meals, and the common people also call it "moving to eat". Breakfast in Jinzhong is mostly cornmeal porridge, commonly known as "boiled bumps", with side dishes; In the southeast of Shanxi, we eat millet thick rice and shredded cold vegetables for breakfast. Lunch is very rich, eating noodles, cakes, steamed bread, plus potatoes, vermicelli, stewed cabbage and pickles. Dinner is also prepared with soup, rice and noodles, but don't pay attention to eating more. The boiled water in southern Shanxi is pepper, which is also a delicious meal.
In the cold season of spring and summer, people in northern Shaanxi always like to sit cross-legged on a hot kang when eating. Housewives sit in the pot and cook meals for men and children, and help themselves to the rest. As the saying goes: "People are in front, and rice is behind." After eating a bowl of rice, if the chopsticks are placed horizontally in the bowl, it means you are full. If chopsticks are put aside or held in your hand, you are not full.
Some rural areas have the habit of standing on the street to eat in summer and autumn. Every household Kazuhiro Mori bowls of rice go out of the courtyard gate, or squat at the door, or go to the street to grind bowls and trees, chat and eat, and have anecdotes and jokes. For example, when farmers are busy harvesting and threshing, they often have the habit of carrying black pottery rice cookers to the fields. If you can't deliver meals from a distance, you can bring some dry food and dried vegetables to satisfy your hunger temporarily. This is called "anti-hunger".
Question 7: Are Shanxi people easy to get along with? Kind? What kind of girls do people like there? ...
Do you want to find a boyfriend there or?
-I don't understand
If you ask me, you are asking a man.
These are not good things.
If you ask a girlfriend, it should be all the same.
As long as you are sincere, you can find good friends everywhere.
Question 8: What should Shanxi people do in Guangdong? See a doctor.
You'll get used to it after a while.
If you can't, go back to your hometown.
Question 9: About Shanxi people drinking vinegar, Shanxi people like to use vinegar in their diet structure, especially when eating pasta in Shanxi, they will pour some vinegar. One side will nourish the other, and Shanxi people have lived in this place for a long time. The ancestors of Shanxi people found that the water quality here was alkaline, which was later reconciled by fermented vinegar. I hope it will help you a little.
Question 10: I'm from Shanxi. Will you get used to it when you get to Qingdao? But this is a small matter. I will get used to it. At present, Qingdao mainly drinks Yellow River water. Many inland friends don't adapt to the humid climate in Qingdao.
