Chapter 665

One of the necessary principles for the emergence of rich and diverse cuisines is the abundance of products, which cannot be separated from the richness of species in essence.

Just like a Chinese, it is difficult to understand how to cook without onions, ginger and garlic.

Therefore, it can be seen that the closer to the lower latitude, the richer the diversity of cuisines, and even many unheard of spice varieties.

In addition to the latitude relationship, it is also necessary to provide a sufficient platform for the collision of ingredients from all over the world.

If you stick to only one place, there will indeed be delicious food, but it is usually relatively monotonous and becomes a "local taste".

It's like the hot and sour taste of Southeast Asia, which is very good, but apart from this cuisine, there seems to be no other more impressive. This is not because the products are not rich, but because of the lack of communication. The reason for this is essentially National borders and traffic restrictions.

The third is that a prosperous period is needed, and the people need to live and work in peace and contentment before they can think about their appetites.

From the global map, only Huaxia meets these three conditions.

It is vast and rich in products at the same time. Although it is not said that it has always lived and worked in peace and contentment, each dynasty has at least a certain period of time.

Looking at the white bears, the latitude is too high, most of them are Siberia, and the same is true for Canada.

As for Ugly Country, its latitude is nearly 20 degrees higher than that of China, which barely meets condition one, but its history is short, so it cannot meet the third condition at all, and the nature of its own colony, Ugly Country's taste is actually from high The latitudes were transferred from Europe.

Further down, no one will satisfy the third condition.

Therefore, Huaxia is unique, and every place has its own special cuisine, but the vast and boundless border of Huaxia itself makes these cuisines have infinite possibilities and variety.

Bi Fang took a sip of water, and lay down on the ground in satisfaction, with a few half-gnawed big fish scattered beside him, looking like the leftovers of an Alaskan brown bear.

Only they have the luxury of eating only the high-fat belly of the fish and throwing the rest aside.

All the belly meat of the fish was eaten by Bi Fang, leaving only those with less fat. With the current weather in the North Pole, there is no need to worry about it going bad after a day or two.

If there is still a good harvest tomorrow, these will be kept forever, and the limited stomach should be reserved for high-calorie foods as much as possible.

Looking at the barrage in the live broadcast room, I found that many viewers were still discussing the strong taste of pickled puffins, and couldn't help laughing, feeling like a prank succeeded.

Judging from the history of human beings entering the cold zone, there is no taste gene that adapts to this "delicious" in the body at all. Only from small to large can it be possible to form customary adaptation, but with the improvement of life, people who can accept it It will only become less and less.

Even if it is canned herring, with the improvement of economic life, many locals are actually not able to eat it.

"Puffins are still eaten by the Inuit, but one of the puffins, the great auk, has become extinct. The last great auk specimen exists in the form of pickled puffins, which can be regarded as a kind of human history. Witness."

Bi Fang stood up, patted the snow on his body, and prepared to start digging a shelter for tonight.

Today's night was pretty good, the temperature only dropped to minus 30 degrees, not too low, and even the aurora appeared, with light green ribbons floating in the night sky, bringing a good view.

The northern lights are quite strong, and the snow is icy, but the hearts of the audience are boiling all the time. Watching the northern lights fluttering in the sky, it seems that the souls of angels are shaking.

Historically, people have been terrified of the aurora.

Especially for the local Sami people in Northern Europe, their legends about the aurora are more scary stories.

For example, there is a legend that children should not go to see the aurora, because the aurora will take away their souls. It is also said that the aurora flies across the sky with an axe, killing anyone who laughs at it.

Therefore, bells are not allowed to be used on sleds traveling under the bright aurora, so as not to disturb the aurora and encounter misfortune.

But in modern times, except for the possible solar storms that cause changes in the magnetic field and poor mobile phone signals, the aurora has become a beautiful landscape.

"I feel that I am full of strength now, and the feeling of having a full meal is different."

Bi Fang shoveled a piece of frozen soil out of the pit, with a floating green light on his face, he was working hard.

If the weather is fine tomorrow, Bi Fang thinks he can even take a bath.

On the vast snowy field, excavating foundations made Bi Fang's heart continuously supply blood to the skin surface and limbs. It was still freezing cold at minus 30 degrees. As soon as Bi Fang stopped moving, the blood transfusion process slowed down immediately, and the warmth brought by the food gradually recede.

The cold came from all directions, attacking Bi Fang, a tiny creature on the snow field, with all his strength.

Blood is alive, and it will fight back against the sudden cold attack, but if it exceeds the threshold, it will retreat and look away, wanting to hide and stay away from this terrible cold.

The hole dug for a long time became a barrier, but after all, the blood did not shrink back in fear. Bi Fang shrank in the hole, took out the few finger-thick branches left before, and used the charcoal left over from last night, and soon made another A fire was lit, warming the icy burrow.

Feeling the pleasant temperature around him, Bi Fang felt drowsy.

He buried the kettle in the snow layer thirty centimeters below.

"In the arctic regions, I recommend using wide-mouthed containers, as narrow-mouthed jugs are more likely to freeze and thaw more slowly."

"Snow's thermal insulation performance is really good. If you put a pot of water under 30 centimeters of snow, even if the temperature drops to minus 40 degrees Celsius, most of the water in the pot can still maintain a liquid state."

Bi Fang carefully sealed the hole with snow to keep the cold air out, and turned the kettle upside down so that even if a little water froze at the top—that is, the bottom of the kettle—it wouldn’t fail. Open the lid.

After finishing the last thing, Bi Fang turned off the live broadcast.

Tomorrow will be very busy, he needs to harvest more food for the winter, and enough safe shelter to face the arrival of the polar night.

The blizzard that lasted for four days greatly reduced Bi Fang's daytime activities, followed by a race against time for survival.

So early the next morning, Bi Fang set off with a hunting knife, not immediately for winter fishing, but too frequent fishing in the same cave, even the most stupid fish would react, so Bi Fang was going to stay until night. .

Today, Bi Fang will go downstream along the river to see if he can find coniferous forest, collect enough wood, or find larger prey.
