At nine o'clock in the morning, Zhao Chaogang and his entourage came to Liu Jingjing's house, and soon, at the door of Liu's house, the earth-shattering sound of firecrackers sounded, Zhao Chaogang and his party carried a large number of dowry gifts, and entered Liufu under the welcome of firecrackers.

Just like in Pingping's house, after Zhao Chaogang came to Liufu, he first went to the lobby to thank Liu Mingxin and his wife, kowtow to Liu Mingxin and his wife, and then came to Liu Jingjing's room.

Of course, this time Zhao Chaogang was also embarrassed by Cai Chanjuan, and compared with the embarrassment he suffered in Pingping's house, Cai Chanjuan's problems to Zhao Chaogang gave Zhao Chaogang a headache even more.

Huang Tingting and the others are ordinary people after all, and they don't know the true identity of Zhao Chaogang, so even if there are some problems, it is very simple, and it is not difficult for Zhao Chaogang to deal with them, but Cai Chanjuan is different, although she does not thoroughly understand the identity of Zhao Chaogang's cultivator, but she clearly knows the identity of Zhao Chaogang's martial artist, so Cai Chanjuan's problem to Zhao Chaogang is really difficult.

In the first level, Cai Chanjuan took out five large cups, and then asked Zhao Chaogang to carefully taste the specific taste of the 'drinks' in the cups, and he had to drink them all.

However, this is not Cai Chanjuan's deliberate spoof of Zhao Chaogang, but has a certain amount of thought in it.

Because, these 'drinks' are all 'drinks' made by Cai Chanjuan with some condiments in the kitchen: vinegar, sugar, salt, chili, and bitter gourd juice, which represent the five flavors of sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty. It also represents the five flavors of life.

What exactly is the bitter flavor in the kitchen, in fact, many people don't know. Bitterness is one of the five traditional Chinese flavors (sour, sweet, salty, bitter, and spicy) and belongs to the basic taste.

Bitterness is generally not liked by people. It must be combined with other flavors to make a compound condiment, and the proportion of its incorporation is very small.

Bitters, when properly integrated with dishes, have a unique aftertaste, stimulate appetite and aid digestion. For example, bitter gourd has a bitter taste, but it is slightly sweet because of the bitterness. Therefore, it is loved by people. Bitter raw materials are mainly derived from Chinese herbs and spices, such as tangerine peel, betel nut, almond, etc.

In nature, there are many more types of bitter substances than sweet ones. For example, many of the alkaloids, glycosides, endolipids, peptides and other compounds distributed in plants are bitter, and bile in animals also has a strong bitter taste.

Bitter seasonings include: tea, coffee, chrysanthemum, almond, tangerine peel, etc. These bitter seasonings not only give the dishes a unique flavor, but also have the effect of relieving heat and eliminating peculiar smells.

Tangerine peel is a dry peel obtained by drying the peel of citrus and other fruits. Because it can be left for a long time after drying. Therefore, it is called "tangerine peel".

Tangerine peel has a bitter taste. There is aroma. Its bitter substance is "limonoid" represented by citroside and picrin. This limon-like bitter has a mild taste and is easily soluble in water. It helps in the digestion of food. Therefore, tangerine peel is used in cooking dishes to flavor and remove odors.

Add some orange peel when stewing meat, which not only relieves greasy and fishy, but also makes the meat fruity; When steaming the steamed buns, add some shredded orange peel or powder. After steaming, it is fragrant and delicious, with a unique flavor; Wash the orange peel and cut into small cubes. Marinated in white sugar for 10 days, it can be made into glutinous rice ball filling, sugar cake filling, etc., and its taste is fragrant; When cooking porridge, put a few pieces of orange peel in the pot before the water boils, and the cooked porridge is fragrant and delicious; Add some chopped orange peel to make peanut candy to add flavor and color.

The orange peel is blanched in lightly salted water, cut into shreds or dices, and soaked in honey, and after 10 days, it becomes a sweet and delicious orange peel preserves.

Wash the orange peel and boil it in water for a few minutes, pour off the water, add water and boil again, repeat several times, squeeze out the water after removing the bitter and astringent taste, cut it into minced pieces and put it in the pot, add an appropriate amount of sugar and a little water, boil it into a paste, and it becomes a fresh and sweet orange peel jam;

The orange peel is washed and dried, soaked in liquor, and after 3 weeks, it becomes orange peel wine, which not only tastes mellow, but also clears the lungs and dissolves phlegm; Orange peel is washed and shredded, dried and washed with tea leaves, which is orange peel tea, which is fragrant and refreshing. Put the dried orange peel in the refrigerator to remove the odor; Orange peel and radish slices can be drunk in water to treat constipation.

Bitter almond is a type of almond, which is the seed of mountain apricot. The bitter taste of bitter almonds is mainly provided by amygdalin, which acts as a bitter seasoning. In cooking, the main thing is to use the bitter taste of this bitter kernel glycoside.

When used in cooking, bitter almonds are often soaked in water to remove some of the bitter taste of bitter almonds. Then it is stir-fried or mixed with celery, carrots, soybeans and other vegetables.

When using bitter almonds as a bitter seasoning, it is important to note that bitter almonds should not be eaten too much at one time. If too much bitter almond is eaten, it can reduce or lose the function of transporting oxygen to human tissues, and even inhibit the respiratory central nervous system, which can be life-threatening.

Therefore, when using bitter almonds in cooking, you must first soak them in water so that most of the bitter amygdalin in them is dissolved in water, which can not only reduce the bitterness, but also ensure safety. Dishes such as: colorful almonds, almond chicken, almond three dices.

Chrysanthemum is the head inflorescence of the chrysanthemum of the Asteraceae family. Sweet, bitter and cool. Contains volatile oils, choline, adenine, chrysanthemums, amino acids, flavonoids, vitamin B1 and other ingredients. It can be used to make zuò chrysanthemum wine, chrysanthemum green tea drink, chrysanthemum meat slices, chrysanthemum fish slices, etc.

Tea is an important culinary seasoning. There are many dishes made using tea as a special flavor seasoning, and some have become famous dishes in our country. For example, from the original "spiced tea eggs", "tea stewed beef", "tea dried beans" gradually developed to "Longjing fish fillet", "Biluo spring dumplings", "new tea fried steak", "chicken shredded Biluo spring" and so on.

The bitter taste of tea is mainly formed by caffeine, theophylline, and theobromine, and these three bitter substances also have a certain effect on human physiological functions, such as stimulating the nerve center, promoting metabolism, relieving oiliness, and helping digestion.

Tea also contains many other components, such as inorganic salts, amino acids, vitamins, ergosterol, etc., which have certain functions for disease prevention, disease resistance, nutrition and health care for the human body. Dishes such as: Longjing shrimp, cloud prawns, and Huahua chicken fillet.

It can be said that bitterness is actually very common in the kitchen. It's just that it's easy for everyone to ignore the bitterness, and I believe everyone has eaten tea eggs and meat stewed with tangerine peel. Therefore, the condiment of bitterness is actually very familiar to everyone.

Cai Chanjuan took out five cups of 'drinks' with five tastes, namely sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty, for Zhao Chaogang to taste, and to distinguish which cup of 'drink' was which taste, in fact, she wanted to let Zhao Chaogang know in this way. The five flavors of life.

Life is a cruet. Sour represents the bitterness and effort in life, sweet represents your feeling of happiness, bitterness represents the pain and tribulation you encounter, spicy represents the accidents you encounter and the exciting past, and salty represents the taste of life that you always savor. In your life, every taste is your experience!

"Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, salty" are collectively called "five flavors", (another saying "five flavors" are: sweet, bitter, sour, pungent, salty.) These are just five different kinds of taste that people experience from external stimuli.

The same is true of life. Everyone has their own unique feelings. The term "sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty" is the most accurate way to describe the various experiences of life.

Some people have also used "five flavors" to describe life, calling it "five flavors of life".

Hardship makes us understand that life is a kind of luck, and people who can live a hard life. Immunity to bitterness. Being able to endure life's adversity is more likely to be successful.

Salty is the driving force of life, and with salt, our life has strength.

Acid is a trace of regret in life, and acid plays a warning role in our lives, but it should not be the main flavor of our lives.

Spicy is the excitement of life, spicy is a temptation, and spicy is also a challenge.

Sweet is a good taste in life. But, the sweetness is too overflowing. It is easy to breed toxins.

In Chinese, "sour" is often used to describe sorrow and poignancy, as well as to mean shabby and pedantic. "Full of absurd words, a handful of bitter tears. Duyun is an idiot, who understands the taste. ”

Cao Xueqin made such a judgment in the first episode of "Dream of Red Mansions", if there was no Cao Xueqin's "bitter" experience, there would be no birth of "Dream of Red Mansions".

Su Dongpo exclaimed in "About the Duke to Choose to Drink the Wind of the Day" that "I want to be a prince for 800 miles, and I will wash away the sour and sour with pride", and expressed his feelings of sweeping away the sour rot with heroic spirit.

If a person is "unlucky and has a bad fate" (Wang Bo's "Preface to the Pavilion of King Teng"), then his fate will inevitably be "bitter"; if a person lives a poor and destitute life where "the cloth is as cold as iron for many years, and the delicate children are evil and cracked" (Du Fu's "Song of the Thatched House Broken by the Autumn Wind"), then he will definitely be exposed to "shabby".

Sour is a hint of regret in life. When you look back on your life path, discouraged and reflective, you find that you have taken the wrong path, made mistakes, and regretted not being at the beginning. However, people who like sour taste are a minority after all, and pregnant women are a special case.

In general, bad spoiled food presents a sour taste. Acid serves as a warning to our lives, but it should not be the main flavor of our lives.

Man's fate may be elusive, bitterness may be unavoidable, but man's life must not be impoverished, because hard work can make you rich, so shabby can be overcome.

"Sweet", "Shangshu Hongfan" said: "Crops are sweet." And note the clouds: "Sweetness is born in a hundred grains." "Hundred grains" are food, which is the basic need for human survival. In later generations, it was often used as "sweet" to describe deliciousness, as a metaphor for happiness and joy.

The "sweetness" of the phrase "bitterness and sweetness" is the meaning of happiness and joy.

When it comes to happiness and joy in life, there is no happier than childhood. In childhood, with the protection of parents, you can be carefree and worry-free. When the sky falls, some people hold on, and when the earth cracks, some people go to mend it. It is no wonder that the Song Dynasty lyricist Xin Qiji would sigh that "young people don't know the taste of sorrow".

In addition to the teenage years, as long as you are a person who loves life, as long as you are good at careful appreciation, there will be many happiness and joy in life.

The ancients believed that there are "four joys" in life: a long drought and nectar, meeting old acquaintances in other places, spending candles in the cave room, and being nominated for the gold list.

As for the "four joys" of the ancients, in fact, it can be understood in this way: "a long drought and nectar in a long time" is the wish of heaven after patient waiting; "meeting old acquaintances in a foreign land" is a chance encounter after making good friends; "night of flowers and candles in the cave room" is a good marriage after a painstaking search; and "when nominated for the gold list" is a successful achievement after ten years of cold window.

From this point of view, it is necessary to find happiness and joy in life. It is necessary to "wait patiently", "make good friends", "pursue hard" and "ten years of cold window".

Sweet is a good taste in life, everyone wants their days to be sweet and sweet, but there are too many sweets. People tend to gain weight. In the same way, if sweetness is too abundant, it is easy to breed toxins.

Bitterness, as one of the "five flavors", is precisely the opposite of sweetness. In ancient times, "bitterness" was a kind of herbal medicine, and the "Book of Songs: Tang Feng" wrote: "Picking bitterness and picking bitterness." Under the Shouyang", which describes the scene of collecting bitter grass at the foot of Shouyang Mountain.

As a gustatory sensation, bitterness is difficult to accept. It even reaches a taste reversal. In the same way, when people think of "suffering", they think more of words like discomfort and pain.

The hardships of work are called "hardship"; the hardships of life are called "hardships"; the sufferings of fate are called "hardships of life"; the demeanor has "sad faces"; the language has "bitter words"; the behavior has "hard-working and hard-working"; and the psychology has "good intentions".

Of course, no matter how bitter. It can't compete with the four major sorrows of life: the loss of parents at a young age. Middle-aged widowed spouse, old age widowed only son, few good teachers.

No one likes to live a hard life, bitterness is just a kind of adjustment, just like some people eat bitter gourd in summer with great fanfare, boasting about the deliciousness and efficacy of bitter gourd, but not everyone is used to this bitter taste. Bitterness can be popular for a while, but it can't become everyone's main taste.

Spicy is the excitement of life. After spending a long time in the calm like water, we always crave something new and exciting to break the calm water. Spicy is such a seasoning. Leave no stone unturned to stimulate your taste buds and let you fully experience the thrill and blood rush.

Spicy is a temptation, and spicy is also a challenge. For most people, it's always tempting. But anyone who can bravely accept the challenges of life is a strong person.

Some people are accustomed to living the same, to where they live and the routes they take every day, to the places and environments where they work...... But when a better job is in front of them, they may not be able to accept change and challenges.

"Salty", the main source of saltiness is salt, and the composition of sodium in salt is an indispensable chemical element for the human body, so it is indispensable. In the delicacies of countries around the world, savory taste is the basic taste and is indispensable in addition to desserts.

Salty, although it is an ordinary taste, can bring out the beauty of a qiē food to the extreme. Salty is like love in life, just the right love is the most ideal.

If you love your children too much, you will become "doting", if you love women too much, you will become "obscene", and if you love money too much, you will become "stingy".

Mother once said that life cannot be without salt for a day, and without salt you will not grow strength to eat. Salt is the most primitive and important spice. Eating the salt of life, your wings will grow stronger day by day, and you will be able to soar in the blue sky.

In short, in a person's life, you don't like "sour", sometimes you can't refuse, you like "sweet", sometimes you are poured with honey, you are afraid of "bitterness", sometimes you have to suffer, you are worried about "spicy", sometimes you come to it, you are indispensable "salty", sometimes you are pickled to death.

Therefore, in general, only a life with a mixture of "sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty" is a real life!

Cai Chanjuan at this time, let Zhao Chaogang taste the five tastes of sweet, sour, bitter, spicy and salty, in fact, she wanted to tell Zhao Chaogang that the taste of life is not all sweet, in the taste of life, sweetness accounts for up to one-fifth, and the other tastes are actually not good, I hope that Zhao Chaogang will be more rare in life in the future, and love Jingjing more!

A girlfriend like Cai Chanjuan is a real best friend, Liu Jingjing has such a best friend who is really for her, it is very rare, and Cai Chanjuan did not live up to Liu Jingjing's trust in her. (After Liu Jingjing practiced martial arts, she quickly obtained Zhao Chaogang's consent to teach Cai Chanjuan martial arts, at that time, the martial arts secret realm had not yet opened!)

The test of Cai Chanjuan's five flavors of life made Zhao Chaogang not only a colleague with headaches, but also completely identified with Cai Chanjuan in his heart.

In the previous incident of violence - force - attack - attack - attack - incident against Sunflower Kindergarten in the United States, Cai Chanjuan's expression was already impressive to Zhao Chaogang, and now Cai Chanjuan is so sincere in considering Jingjing, Cai Chanjuan is a person who has really won Zhao Chaogang's approval, and in the future, Cai Chanjuan and Zhao Chaogang are no longer just treated as Jingjing's best friend, but as a real friend.

If Cai Chanjuan knew that it was because of her test against Zhao Chaogang today that she was completely recognized by Zhao Chaogang, I believe she would definitely be dumbfounded.

Of course, Cai Chanjuan said that she wanted to embarrass Zhao Chaogang, so letting Zhao Chaogang taste the tastelessness of life is just the beginning, after making Zhao Chaogang's mouth unconscious (Cai Chanjuan's prepared five flavors, the amount and taste are very heavy), Cai Chanjuan came up with a lot of means to embarrass Zhao Chaogang.

Fortunately, Cai Chanjuan's next means were very ordinary, and Zhao Chaogang could easily take it, which made Zhao Chaogang feel relieved.

In dealing with Cai Chanjuan's problem, Zhao Chaogang spent a full forty minutes, in the middle of which Wen Hai wanted to break through directly like in Pingping's house, but he was directly destroyed by Cai Chanjuan's blow, so Zhao Chaogang, who was 'alone', had to accept Cai Chanjuan's embarrassment.

At ten o'clock, Zhao Chaogang took Liu Jingjing into the wedding car, and the group embarked on the way home, and the wedding ceremony officially began......!
