What is the difference between plain wine and meat wine? How can Baijiu be divided into meat and vegetables?
4hw.com.cn: friends watching journey to the West should have an impression of meat wine and vegetable wine. Monks of Tang Dynasty don't drink wine, but they can drink some vegetable wine. So many friends asked, how do you divide meat and vegetable wine when it's made of grain? Let's have a look.
In fact, the Baijiu has been distilled in the Ming Dynasty. This kind of wine tastes mellow, has a high degree of alcohol, and is easy to get drunk. If a monk drinks this kind of wine, he is easy to get drunk, and drunkenness is breaking the rule -- it is the same as eating meat, so it is called 'meat wine'
The plain wine is the crude wine. Without 'distillation' process, it simply filters the lees, and the remaining turbid liquor is boiled in the pot so that the wine will not deteriorate. This kind of crude wine has a very low degree and is not easy to get drunk. It is not easy for monks to break their precepts when drinking, so it is called 'plain wine'. In fact, people in the outlaws of the marsh often drink a barrel of plain wine (the distillation process was not popularized at that time). You can let those heroes drink a barrel of Maotai!
Today, Erguotou is meat wine, and beer can be called vegetarian wine.
