The delicious secret of 27° north latitude: Bamboo shoot banquet at Wuyi Mountain Villa

【Gift from Nature】 27° north latitude, the core scenic area of ​​Wuyishan National Park. Here, clouds and fog are frequent visitors, red soil is a hotbed, and the bamboo forest nurtured by the thousand-year-old Danxia landform carries the aura of the mountains in every breath. When the spring thunder awakens the soil, a fleeting delicious smell - the bamboo shoots from Wuyi Mountain Villa - are quietly breaking through the soil. 【The Art of Flavor and Time】 Fresh bamboo shoots are a love letter from the mountain god to spring. The value of the bamboo shoots from Wuyi Mountain Villa lies in the word "time". In the early morning, bamboo shoot diggers, relying on decades of experience, can feel the subtle ups and downs of the bamboo shoot tips just by touching the soil with their fingertips. The freshness of bamboo shoots can be locked in only if the dew has not dried yet. The bamboo shoots are picked in their shells and sent to the kitchen within three hours. The moment the knife cuts them, the tender yellow bamboo shoots ooze out sweet juice, and you can almost hear the sound of Wuyi Mountain water flowing through the fibers. [Answer to the password and customs] Why are the bamboo shoots here so sweet? Danxia red soil: Acidic soil rich in minerals, giving bamboo shoots a unique sweet aftertaste; Cloud nourishment: An average of 200 days of cloud and fog each year allow the bamboo shoots to accumulate more amino acids; Day and night temperature difference: The 15°C day and night temperature difference allows the bamboo shoots to grow slowly and have finer fibers. The bamboo shoots grown elsewhere look like vegetables, but the bamboo shoots grown here have the soul of the mountains. ——Thus said the bamboo shoot diggers. 【Craftsmanship·Fireworks of the world】 The secret of the chef at the villa is to "use simplicity to overcome complexity". Good bamboo shoots only need a piece of lard and a pinch of salt. Take the tenderest third section of the bamboo shoots, tear them into strips by hand, and stir-fry quickly over high heat. The tips of the bamboo shoots are as crisp as pears, while the roots are as sticky as chestnuts. When you take a bite, the fresh flavor spreads in your mouth like the "rock flavor" of Wuyi Rock Tea. 【Epilogue·The Zen of Season】 The best time to enjoy bamboo shoots is only 20 days. If you miss this season, you will have to wait another year. Perhaps it is just as the people of Wuyi Mountain said: The best taste never waits for anyone, it only waits for those who understand it.
