Chapter 211 Late Night Tibetan Food

After closing the live broadcast, Xiang Tian went to the room next to the yard to watch the rescued little Tibetan antelope.

The little Tibetan antelope was already asleep in the incubator.

"Xiang Tian, ​​let's go. I have prepared a room for you to rest. The condition of our rescue station is poor, so I have wronged you." Li Baohua on the side said politely.

"Stationmaster Li, you're welcome. The conditions in this high-altitude area are already tight, so it's okay." Xiang Tian said.

Following Li Baohua to the room, there were a lot of sundries piled up in the room, a simple square table, and a single bed, the glass on several windows was broken, and a pile of plastic sheets were used to barely block the wind.

"Xiang Tian, ​​this room is already the best in our place. If you are cold, there is a stove here, and there is cow dung in the woven bag next to it. Since the Tibetan antelope needs electricity to keep warm, all the lighting on our side has been cut off. Yes, this flashlight is on the table." Li Baohua confessed.

"Okay, thank you Director Li, you can go to rest too, I can just come by myself." Xiang Tian said.

At night, the temperature on the plateau dropped extremely fast, it was still more than degrees at noon, and at night, it immediately reached minus degrees.
It was snowing a little outside.
The cold wind blew in through some gaps, and it was difficult for the frozen Xiang Tian to sleep.

Getting up, Xiang Tian shrank his neck, walked to the stove, and threw a few more pieces of yak dung into it.

A faint orange flame rose in the stove, and Xiang Tian squatted aside, curled up and warmed by the fire.

"It's really cold here at night. Director Li said that this house is the best one. I don't know how broken their room is."

Because of the time when he came, it was already past the meal time, so Xiang Tian drove for a whole day and didn't eat anything.

I'm a little hungry now
Button button.
At this time the door was knocked.

"Xiang Tian, ​​hello, I'm Jiayang, are you asleep?" A young man's voice came from outside the door.

"Jiayang, I haven't slept yet, what's the matter?" Xiang Tian stood up and responded.

"Director Li asked me to bring you some tsampa, ghee, and yak milk, as well as a little yak meat."

Kayang stood at the door and shouted.

"Oh? Thank you so much, I'm really hungry." Xiang Tian opened the door and said.

"This is tsampa, which is our local specialty. The yak meat has been dried and is delicious." Jiayang, a Tibetan boy, was very enthusiastic and introduced the food to the Sifang table.

"Okay, then I won't bother you to eat, go to bed early." Jiayang said and backed out.

After Xiang Tian thanked him, he closed the door.

Unable to sleep at this time, Xiang Tian simply thought about turning on the drone and started the live broadcast.

As the drone slowly lifted into the air, the screen was connected to the live broadcast room.

Although it was already midnight, there were always some night owl netizens on the live broadcast platform, who clicked into the live broadcast room curiously.
"I'm going, anchor, it's live again now? Can't you fall asleep?"

"Hahaha, good guy, the conditions here are really tough!!"

"This room is like a utility room, can people live in it?"

"The anchor has worked hard!!"

"What's on this table? This powder!?"

"Oatmeal?? Or something!!"

"In this snowy area, I'm afraid it's not oatmeal, it should be tsampa."

"What is tsampa? I see meat!!"

"The cup is filled with butter tea, right?"

The barrage in the live broadcast room.

Looking at the tsampa and yak meat on the Sifang table, Xiang Tian was really hungry.

"Tsampa is a special snack in XZ Autonomous Region, and it is also one of the traditional staple foods of Tibetan herdsmen. "Tsampa" is the Tibetan transliteration of "fried noodles". It is a staple food that Tibetan people must eat every day. You will definitely be served fragrant milk tea and tsampa, golden ghee and milky "qula" (casein), and layers of sugar are all over the table."

“Tsampa is flour made from highland barley washed, dried, and fried. When eating, stir it evenly with a small amount of buttered tea, milk dregs, sugar, etc., and knead it into a ball with your hands. It is not only easy to eat, but also rich in nutrition. , high in heat, very suitable for alleviating hunger and keeping out the cold, and easy to carry and store.”

"Tibetans have tsampa for three meals a day. The method of making tsampa is to dry and fry the highland barley, grind it finely, and then pass through the sieve. The fried noodles made in this way are edible tsampa."

"Zanba is somewhat similar to fried noodles in northern my country, but the fried noodles in the north are first ground and then fried, while XZ's tsampa is first fried and then ground without removing the skin. When eating tsampa, put some ghee in the bowl and wash it Add tea, add some tsampa noodles, and keep stirring with your hands."

"When eating tsampa, generally use butter tea and tsampa noodles to stir, and if possible, add sugar and milk dregs, which can add deliciousness and increase appetite."

"When the Han people eat tsampa, if there is no butter tea, they can use pork fat or cooked clear oil instead, then add boiling water and sugar and stir to eat. No matter which method is used, the tsampa noodles after stirring contain a lot of fat, so it is not suitable to eat. If there is too much, you should eat less and more meals, so as to facilitate digestion and absorption."

"Tsampa is rich in nutrients and has a lot of calories, which can satisfy hunger and keep out the cold."

Xiang Tian introduced to the audience in the live broadcast room.

"This yak meat looks delicious, let's try it."

Xiang Tian put the butter tea beside the stove, added some butter and milk tea to the tsampa, stirred it with his hands, cut a piece of dried yak meat, and tasted it.

"Well, tsampa and yak jerky taste pretty good."

"Well, it's not good for you as an anchor. In the middle of the night, I said how to broadcast live. It turned out to be eating."

"This tsampa doesn't look very good, but this yak meat must be delicious."

"look hungry"

"What does this butter tea taste like? Host!!"

"I've never eaten it, I hope the anchor will answer."

After Xiang Tian took a few mouthfuls, he looked at the phone screen and smiled slowly,

"The butter tea tastes very strong, and it tastes good when you drink it hot. If it's cold, it has a strange fishy smell."

"The taste of tsampa is not bad, and the feeling of fullness is quite strong, but I don't like it very much."

"The most delicious thing is this yak meat. It tastes very fragrant. It should be marinated with salt and pepper." Xiang Tian explained.

"The ghee itself has a strange smell, which we mainlanders are not used to."

"I ate tsampa when I was traveling before, and it didn't taste very good to be honest."

"Haha, when the anchor stirred it with his hands, he suddenly felt like he had a soul."

"Yak meat is delicious, I want to eat it!!!"

The audience in the live broadcast room said one after another.

Sitting by the fire, Xiang Tian ate some tsampa and yak meat,
Finally, he drank another cup of buttered tea before he burped contentedly.

"After eating, I feel warm all over my body, and I should be able to sleep well now." Xiang Tian looked at his watch and found that it was already early morning.

Open the door through the crack of the door, the snow outside has stopped, and Xiang Tian, ​​who is full of food and drink, is ready to go to bed.

"Viewers, today's live broadcast is over. I'm a little sleepy. Let's continue the live broadcast tomorrow. Good night!!!"

Early the next morning, Xiang Tian woke up from the cold, the stove in the house had been extinguished, and the food in his stomach had almost been digested.

Getting up, Xiang Tian pushed open the door, Jia Yang, Chen Juling, and Wang Yuan from the rescue station were shoveling snow in the yard in full swing.

Since there is no water source here, they have to use stoves to boil water for domestic use.

"Xiang Tian, ​​are you awake?? We are shoveling snow and boiling water, you can wash your face after a while." Several people smiled honestly.

"It's really cold here in the morning, where is Director Li?" Xiang Tian shrank his neck and asked.

"I was observing the little Tibetan antelope yesterday, go and have a look." Wang Yuan explained.

"Okay, then you guys are busy first, I'll go in and have a look."
