Eating in Guangping: A History of Dog Meat During the Summer Solstice – Is It Time to Say Goodbye?
One, Say History
Many people say that Guangxi people don't like to eat dog meat. In fact, what is not widely known is that Guangxi people were not the pioneers of eating dog meat. That was as early as two thousand and twenty-three years ago, when Emperor Qin Shihuang dispatched fifty thousand troops to suppress Guangxi, and brought the custom of eating dog meat with it. As described in previous articles, let's not elaborate on this. In short, the dog, from sacrificial three-species six-animals, became a delicious treat for the people's tables! The flow of transmission, in various places, also had dog meat made into famous dishes. Historically, the most famous person to slaughter dogs was Fan Qiang, from a scoundrel who couldn't get on stage to a powerful general, who said he didn't become a great general because of eating dog meat? Liu Bang didn't get his start without Fan Qiang's help, and today, 'Fan Qiang Dog Meat' has also become a famous dish. Far away in Northeast Korea, the Korean people also love to eat dog meat. In the winter of Changbai Mountain, people there learned that dog meat was a hot thing, naturally cooked with wisdom. In the southwest and southwest, in the south and south, the eating of dog meat reached its peak, with countless variations.
Two, Reasons
As for Guangxi, eating dog meat is a must. Every summer solstice, the word 'Yulin Dog Meat' became a hot topic, and the heat was even more intense than the heat of dog meat. Why eat dog meat on the summer solstice? It is paired with lychees, which is closely related to the climate of Lingnan. The hot and humid tropical and subtropical climate, whenever summer comes, people can't let out their sweat, leading to many diseases, and eating dog meat and lychees has an effective effect.
Guangxi people don't eat dog meat on the summer solstice, but on the summer solstice. This is because Guangxi is currently on the 23.5 degrees North, and the sun starts to move south every year, so the summer solstice is not the peak of heat, and the heat continues to mature until the summer solstice festival, so it's the best time to eat dog meat.
Three, Guangxi People Eat Dog Meat Unlike Others
Guangxi people like to eat dog meat with yellow-pepper sauce. The yellow-pepper sauce is prepared, and a little green onion is added. After the dog meat is cooked, some like to dip it in eating, and some like to pour it over. The cooking method is generally either steamed or boiled, regardless of how it is cooked, ginger is indispensable. Two thousand years of evolution, Guangxi people have learned that ginger, green onion, lychee, and dog meat are cooked in harmony with nature and cuisine. It's not just about eating for the sake of eating. Guangxi may be a great place to eat dog meat because Guangxi produces a lot of eight-angle, star anise, and dried tangerine peel, which provides ample guarantee for the aroma and flavor of dog meat. 'Dog meat rolls three rolls, gods and goddesses won't be able to stand it'. Without these fragrant spices, how can dog meat be fragrant? So much Guangxi, abbreviated as Guangxi, all originates from Guangping, or perhaps it is the will of Emperor Qin Shihuang to send dog meat to Guangxi. It's strange, it's strange that he did.
Four, Future
At the end of the Jia Hui and the beginning of the Jin Chou, Shenzhou experienced a major epidemic, and the advocacy of refusing to eat wild animals was launched during this spring and implemented. I don't know if eating dog meat counts, anyway, it's already silent. I don't know how the foodies feel about this. Or should customs be changed? Human and animal harmony, harmonious coexistence requires everyone's effort!
In the future, will rural areas re-appear 'hearing the barking of dogs at the door', 'chicken and dog together' harmonious scenes?
Will there be no more 'robberies of dogs at night, difficult to prevent' situations?
Will Chinese Pastoral Dogs be able to be re-bred and developed?
Many times, controlling your mouth can reduce many disasters!
Now that we can still eat it, let's eat more. Many years later, 'Yellow Pepper Stewed Dog Meat' may only exist on recipes for Guangping people to reminisce about. Besides, Guangping people, do you agree that dog meat should withdraw from the table on the summer solstice?
