Eating food in the Song Dynasty really broke my heart for the sake of eating healthy.
Chinese medicine has a word: dietotherapy. People who can cook Chinese food can basically name several dishes related to dietotherapy: eating red dates to nourish the spleen and stomach, sterilizing and preventing diseases with onions, ginger and garlic, and lowering blood fat with hawthorn ... Let's not say whether these foods really have such magical effects, but at least we can see that we pay attention to the homology of medicine and food when eating, and we should eat healthily and prevent diseases by the way. At first, our ancestors lived a life of eating grass and trees, until the appearance of Shennong, the "supreme gourmet", which taught our ancestors the experience of eating whole grains and avoiding toxic food. Medicine and food are eaten in the same way. What's up, little brother? In ancient China, there were many suicide notes recording dietotherapy methods, such as Taiping Sheng Huifang, Shengji Zonglu, Qianjinfang and so on. But these medical books are difficult to understand and widely spread. On the contrary, recipes are more popular and easy to understand, and everyone likes them. Although Shanjia Qinggong written by Lin Hong in Song Dynasty is not a medical book, it contains so many ingredients with the same origin of medicine and food. Compared with the elegance pursued by the food culture in Song Dynasty, this part of the menu is more simple and returns to the original intention of pursuing "practicality". What to eat, how to eat, where to make up after eating, what are the benefits, and what are the taboos? Lin Hong introduced them in Shanjia Qing Palace. There are 20 dishes about dietotherapy in Mu Ke's book "Mountain Family Sacrifice: Human Taste is Happiness", namely: Rehmannia glutinosa, Toona sinensis root wonton, lily powder, hydrogen arsenide powder, yellow fruit cake, purple chrysanthemum, fried chrysanthemum seedlings, fairy rich cake, Acorus gramineus and so on. Life Jun will talk to you about some interesting foods today. However, I can't guarantee that they are completely reliable, so I'm just saying. Rehmannia according to Cui's navigation prescription, this dish can "cure heartache and get rid of worms", that is, kill parasites in the body. Su Dongpo, a great writer, once planted rehmannia glutinosa, ate it and wrote a poem to praise it: Rehmannia glutinosa pays for an old horse, which can make people learn from others. This means that Rehmannia glutinosa has a refreshing effect on horses. Rehmannia glutinosa is also divided into advantages and disadvantages. "It's yellow that floats on the water, and yellow that sinks half. Only those that sink to the bottom are the best. It's best to use clear juice and salt, but you can't eat it. Or wash and cut into pieces and cook porridge with rice, which is very beneficial. " Toona sinensis root wonton around beginning of autumn, people are prone to dysentery and low back pain. Eating this dish can prevent it. Liu Yuxi, a poet, has a method of cooking wonton skin with roots: take a handful of roots, mash flour, mix flour and twist it into wonton the size of acacia seeds. Boil with clear water and take ten tablets on an empty stomach every day. There are no contraindications when taking it. Shan Ye people really have guests. Let him eat a dozen first, which is not only good for health, but also can postpone breakfast a little. Guā lóu powder can tonify the body and cure the disease of blood (even blood) due to intestinal wind, which is said by Sun Simiao, the king of medicine. The preparation method of Trichosanthes kirilowii powder is: dig deep roots, cut until exposed, cut into one inch, soak in water, change the water every day, and take it out five days later. Mash Fructus Trichosanthis vigorously, put it in a silk bag, filter out pure white juice, and dry it to make powdery food. Make a paste with japonica rice, stir with a spoon until it is white, add some cheese, or stir-fry with wine until it is reddish. Like many foods with the same origin of medicine and food, the book "Shanjia Qinggong" only says that yellow cakes and shavings have nourishing effects, but there is no specific development. Life Jun also specially asked a doctor friend that Huang Jing has the effect of enhancing immunity and anti-fatigue. If you want to make yellow fruit cake shavings, you need to dig out the roots of Polygonatum sibiricum in the second month of spring, steam it for nine times, sun it for nine times, and mash it to make syrup, which can be used with fruits. Or sliced Polygonatum sibiricum, boiled in water to remove bitterness, and then squeezed out the juice. After the juice is clarified, fried with black beans and yellow rice to make cakes is also delicious. In addition, there are refreshing cakes (gingerbread), pine yellow cakes that can promote the treatment of alopecia, various nourishing foods, jinyu soup, flax wine and so on. If you are interested, you can look it up in person. It is not difficult to see that the dietotherapy viewpoint of Shanjia Qinggong is to give priority to food supplement and give consideration to dietotherapy. The ingredients he recorded are not aimed at a certain disease, but are usually used as daily food, but objectively beneficial to the human body and have the function of conditioning the body, which is very different from the medical skills that generally emphasize the use of specific ingredients (medicinal materials) to treat diseases. Another thing that Life Jun likes best is that these foods with the same origin of medicine and food written by Lin Hong not only have magical "magic power", but also are full of color, flavor and poetic names. Just looking at the name of the dish, I feel refreshed and transparent before I really eat it. In fact, modern people are also very particular about health preservation. After 90, wolfberry water and jujube water have been soaked. Lycium barbarum was soaked in hot water for a while, but it was not nourished by diet after all. Life Jun is a person who pays attention to health. Recently, Life Jun scoured a health pot. Needless to say, it is really convenient. Scan code purchase: Delmar Delmar stainless steel with YS802 304 austenitic stainless steel for stew pot, full of nutrition, visible and assured. Luxury food, care about the temperature of every moment. There is also a one-click intelligent cooking function, which can easily fix a bowl of health soup, and my mother will never worry that I am not nutritious enough to eat! -END- Disclaimer: The above content comes from the Internet, and the copyright belongs to the original author.
