Bind your arms

Bind your arms

Introduction:

"Today, I've prepared a big dish for you - tie arm (I always feel that this name is not very elegant, but I can't find a more suitable one, because it's not only image, but also very appropriate). For it, I always have a special plot, it is one of my grandmother's specialties. In my impression, grandma is a very capable woman, sewing clothes, washing and cooking... All housework became so easy and beautiful under her skillful hands. When we were children, we lived in grandma's house. She always changed simple dishes into delicious ones for us. Especially on the new year's day, when she showed off her skills, she was responsible for the food of the family of more than 20 people. Although there were mothers who helped her, for everyone to eat well and to eat cheaply, grandma always did it herself. It can be said that she tried her best to make us have a good time. This "tie arm" is the dinner table that will be served for last year's dinner every new year, and it is a very popular dish. But when I was young, I only saw my grandmother do it. I never wanted to learn it. I was too young to experience the feeling that I might not be able to eat one day. After my grandmother died, we got together again for the new year. We found that although some dishes were made by my mother, sisters and uncles according to my grandmother's previous method, they didn't taste so original. They always seemed to lack something. But fortunately, this Taoist dish "tie arm", the taste of mother's cooking is no worse than grandma's. Now I can understand this regret and have the consciousness of learning early. So I bought back the raw materials and specially asked my mother for advice. Let's learn to do this Taoist dish together. "
