Description:
Tibetan people have a special feeling for bacon. The elders said that the family with more bacon is rich, and the family with better bacon is particular. Every Spring Festival, after killing the pigs, they will cut most of the fresh meat into large pieces, hang it on the wood beam above the stove, and burn it with fragrant wood such as cherry, pine, cypress, etc. A few months of smoking, bacon can be taken at will. This is the way meat has been stored for generations. Nowadays, more and more people have refrigerators, live in clean and spacious buildings, and few people make bacon. But people miss the unique delicacy of bacon even more. So they often entrust their relatives in the countryside to smoke. The development of society has greatly enriched people's material life, but on the other hand, some traditional culture has been weakened and disappeared. In a few years, those delicious bacon may become a distant memory
