The first 1 episode "The Happiness Secret of Golden Beer Duck"

I'm Jennifer and I'm a professional DJ. In the spotlight, I use music to control the audience's feelings. DJ is my stage, and music is my pulse and heartbeat. I can't imagine life without music. Blood and Charm is the flavor of my music.

I have been in this business for seven or eight years. I set out from Hunan, traveled all over China with the feeling of traveling and studying, gained many musical features belonging to different cities, and gradually found my own position and style. DJ seems to be a bar soul who can control the audience, but in fact he is also a dark walker with black and white upside down. A glamorous appearance can only be carried by a young body. But unlike other DJs, I don't have to wear heavy foundation, and I still shine. Because I always insist on cooking and taking care of my health, which is the only thing my mother told me when I left home eight years ago.

I have many friends around me. They are too lazy to cook by themselves. They are used to ordering takeout and eating fast food. They think it takes time and effort to cook for themselves, but I have never felt this way. This complex of cooking by yourself comes from my mother.

I remember when I was a child, on weekends, my mother always made a golden duck, and I could eat an extra bowl of rice every time. Later, I learned that this is a beer duck.

We "gone with the wind", in the days when we are constantly floating outside, I have cooked the delicious beer duck in my mind in countless ways, but I just can't make the special taste cooked by my mother.

I went back to Changsha last Spring Festival and chatted with my mother in the warm winter sun. Suddenly I was greedy and asked my mother how to make a unique "mother-flavored" beer duck when I was a child.

It turns out that my mother used to fry duck and pork belly together first, and then stew them in a pot, so that the surface of the duck was covered with delicious lard, which made the stewed duck hotter and more fragrant. This is my mother's original secret of making beer duck. My mother's story also made me deeply understand her love for me. It turns out that since I was a child, I spent so much time cooking beer duck in order to make me eat an extra bowl of rice, but I never mentioned it to me until I asked. At this time, I realized that the "mother flavor" in all delicious Hunan dishes was originally cooked with love. For so many years, I have been drifting on the road. What is this for? Should I stop to be with my mother?

So I went back to Changsha again. After having a stable job in Changsha, I met a man who belongs to me. We have the same musical ideas and life goals. Although we only live in a small single apartment in Changsha, we still live a sweet and fulfilling life.

My mother does not object to or support my relationship with him. She just told me that no matter how small a home is, there must be a pot and two bowls. If it wants to last for a long time, it must make the house smell of lampblack and fireworks. In fact, I don't agree with my mother's old-school thinking, but when he pleasantly praised my beer duck for being much more delicious than the restaurant outside, my beer duck is now wrapped in happiness and the taste of home.

I want to pass on this delicious beer duck that my mother taught me to my future children, because my happy children in Changsha and I may have grown up healthily in the delicious Hunan cuisine and the warmth of our family.

The second episode "bacon with hot red wine, the taste from Denmark"

My name is Justin and my Chinese name is Alex Gao. Yes, I'm a foreigner and I'm half China. My Danish father works in a trading company, and my Taiwan Province mother works as a stewardess in Cathay Pacific Airlines. They fell in love at first sight in a bar in Beijing, and my fate with China was thus sealed.

Hot red wine is my favorite drink since I was a child. In my hometown of Denmark, I use the word Glgg. This winter special drink is a must for Nordic families to spend the long dark winter. Just like Hunan people make chopped peppers at home, each family will have its own different proportion or formula. When I was a child, I often argued with my friends that my grandmother's Glgg was the best hot red wine in the world. The pot is steaming, with hot red wine of oranges and lemons, smelling fresh and sweet fruits, and the aroma of other spices, which has irresistible magic. In cold weather, hot red wine warms the whole body. Because I like the taste of hot red wine, I not only like to drink it myself, but also hope to sell grandma's hot red wine all over the world.

One of the benefits of an international family is that I have been to many countries since I was a child, such as Korea, Denmark, China and the United States ... When I was studying at the University of Chicago in the United States, I met a classmate at a party before I graduated from college. He is a Chinese American, and I told him that my dream is to come to China to sell red wine.

After graduating from college, I served in the Royal Danish Air Force for three years. In the strict military camp life, I almost forgot my dream of selling red wine. Until last year, I accidentally received a phone call from that friend. He said, do you still remember your dream of coming to China to sell Berry Bros. & Rudd? Now a company is going to set up a wine sales department in Hunan. I remember what you said, thinking that you were the only one ... so I came to China.

Working in Changsha is very interesting. I go to different places, meet different people and introduce my favorite red wine to the people I like. Every day is a new beginning for me. Now I occasionally chat with many classmates on Facebook, and many of them are complaining about their lives, saying that they are not doing well, like a soulless body shuttling between cities. But for me, there is no such feeling at all, because I am doing what I like.

Green pepper and bacon are my new "friends" in Changsha. When I first came here, I was not used to eating Chili. When I ate it, my mouth was as uncomfortable as a fire, but now I'm getting used to it so well that jiaozi is going to put Chili sauce. Hunan bacon is my favorite now, because it goes well with my childhood partner's hot red wine. When you take a bite of bacon and drink hot red wine, the unique smoky smell of Hunan bacon is neutralized by the sweetness of hot red wine, and their fragrance is strong and harmonious in your mouth. What? You said you've never eaten like this? Think the combination of Chinese and western is very different? So what? I like it.

Yes, because I like it, my parents gave birth to a mixed-race me; Because I like it, I can leave my hometown and come to a strange Hunan; Because I like it, I work more fully than my classmates; Because I like it, Hunan bacon can also be served with Danish hot wine.

This is my food story and my life story. I will stay in China and continue to write my story, because I like it here, that's right.

A few days ago, I watched a very nice micro-documentary "Taste and Road" on Hunan Satellite TV, the best TV station in China. I hope they can pat my red wine bacon-Danish mixed with China.
