Escape from the desert

The firewood in the stove was screeching, and the whole iron pot was hot and hot, and the hot oil was flowing safely in the pot.

The meat was fried to a golden brown on all sides, and even if there were no ingredients, the fragrance made the few people who had been working on the farm all morning go hungry.

Jiang Yan took the straw, trimmed the washed straw briefly, and then soaked it in boiling water to make the straw more pliable. After frying the meat, she took a piece and started tying it up. The way of wrapping it is the usual way of drugstore owners. The bundling method of packaging, tying up the meat pieces that are about the size of a fist in three or two strokes.

Then put the washed straw on the bottom of the steamer, and then place the bundled meat pieces neatly on top. The ginger slices and ingredients that have been cut long ago are also spread in a shallow layer.

The two daughters-in-law watched in a fog, what is the mother-in-law doing?Can you eat straw too?

"Mother, do we want to eat this straw too?" She stabbed her neck a bit, I'm afraid it won't be chewed.

Jiang Yan chuckled: "What are you thinking? You can't eat this straw, and the meat has to be stewed for a while. I'm afraid that the meat will be stewed. It is used to maintain its shape, and a layer of sticky pan is placed underneath."

In fact, this is only Jiang Yan's one-sided understanding. According to the recipe, the meat is somewhat greasy. Binding it with straw or matting can relieve some of the greasy feeling, and it will make the braised pork taste more fragrant. A faint grassy scent.

Jiang Yan's braised pork is more like Dongpo pork than conventional braised pork, but the method is slightly different. Braised pork is thicker than Dongpo pork, and the more delicious it is, the stronger it is. Dongpo pork is different and has a mellow taste. The juice is thick, crisp but not broken, fragrant but not greasy, and the essence is still somewhat different.

Dongpo pork needs to be steamed for a long time. The two daughters-in-law learned the method of their mother-in-law and quickly tied all the pieces of meat. After a while, the cauldron was neatly stacked with pork belly.

After finishing this tough dish, the rest are often cooked by the two daughters-in-law, and Jiang Yan will no longer interfere, guarding the fire of Dongpo Rou.

"Mother, what are you eating today, you can smell the fragrance from far away outside the hospital." Lin Dong walked into the kitchen, most of his clothes were soaked, and at first glance, he went to the well to rinse.

"Anyway, there is something delicious, what about the second child?"

"Second, they are guarding the threshing floor."

Jiang Yan nodded, and the rice was moved to the threshing farm. In order to avoid confusion in the village, people were usually guarded at home, mainly because they were afraid that the village's poultry would be eaten stealthily, but the guards were usually women, children and children.

"Boss, go to your Uncle Wu's house and order rice wine. You don't need too much, just pour a bowl."

Lin Dong's face changed instantly, and he immediately refused: "No, mother, you can't drink, and no one in our family drinks. You forgot, you will go crazy when you drink."

Jiang Yan frowned, thinking of Yuanshen's feat of drinking in her mind. Yuanshen's drinking capacity is not very good, but he loves to drink. He used to drink a few sips secretly when he was fine.

But as soon as she got drunk, she started to go crazy, shouting and crying while taking off her clothes. The last time she was drunk, she almost took off her panties. Fortunately, several sons locked her in the room, and she has not been in the same room since then. Been drinking.

Jiang Yan scratched her head embarrassedly, and glanced at Wang Jinhua a little embarrassedly. In her memory, Wang Jinhua saw her whole body completely. Although she hadn't passed through at that time, her body was still the same body...

"I didn't use it to drink, I used it to cook, you go get it." This meat needs to be added with some rice wine to bring out the authentic taste. The color of the rice wine is dark and the taste is astringent, but with a little sweetness, stewed Cooking Dongpo pork will make the meat taste more mellow.

"Understood, I'll go right now." Lin Dong ran out with the bowl, as long as his mother didn't drink, he could do anything.

Jiang Yan boiled the sugar-colored sugar carefully, and the brown-red sugar juice was bubbling with fine bubbles, and the sweet and seductive smell permeated the entire stove. With the constant stirring in her hands, the brown-red sauce in the pot was It became thicker and slowly turned into a maroon color, she turned around and poured a large spoonful of cold water into it.

After the water boils, pour in the mellow and fragrant rice wine, and then add an appropriate amount of soy sauce. The original reddish-brown soup returns to tan, and pour it into a large pot covered with meat pieces. The soup is poured over each piece of meat. , As the temperature rises and the soup tumbles, the meat aroma is instantly stimulated, and the Dongpo meat with the aroma of wine and strong meat aroma floats out of the yard.

Jiang Yan smelled the smell intoxicated, she was hungry, because she was the closest, she was slightly stunned by the aroma of the wine, the fire was turned to a small fire, and when the two daughters-in-law made other dishes, they could start the pot.

Lin Dong licked his mouth, more and more saliva secreted: "Mother, it's delicious, when are we going to have dinner."

This smells so good, I drank three bowls of white porridge in the morning, why is my stomach still growling.

"You go and ask the second child and the others to come to dinner, and the rice can be taken care of by someone you know at the threshing ground."

Lin Dong nodded, and hurried to the threshing field. When he thought that he would be able to have dinner when he came back, his steps were much faster.

The food was almost cooked, Jiang Yan helped to serve the dishes and set the bowls. She had been busy all morning and was already hungry, and she would panic just looking at a few meat dishes.

When it was almost time, Jiang Yan opened the lid of the cauldron and sprinkled a large amount of rock candy inside. The two daughters-in-law were stunned, feeling distressed for both meat and sugar.

Who is cooking with so much sugar?Is it good to put sugar in the meat?Moreover, sugar and meat are precious things, even if the family is rich, they are reluctant to eat more, but seeing the happy look on their mother-in-law's face, the two have to swallow the words to their lips.

For them, what the mother-in-law does is right.

After a while, Lin Dong took the lead, followed by the family neatly behind him, like a small team, lining up from big to small to wash their hands and faces, then lined up to carry bowls and chopsticks, each found their own seat, obediently serving. Sit down, licking their mouths one by one, staring at a table of dishes with naked eyes, waiting for Jiang Yan to give an order to start the meal.

As usual, Jiang Yan packed Old Wu's family with three pieces of Dongpo meat for Lin Dongduan to pass over, and also packed three pieces for Lin Yousheng's family for Lin Nanduan to pass over. Thinking of the old old man Lin, Jiang Yan also packed two pieces. , let Lin Xiduan go over.

"This is for your grandfather. You make it clear that it is for your grandfather to eat." Jiang Yan instructed. Old man Lin was not stupid and definitely understood what she meant.

Lin Xi nodded, holding the bowl, smelling the tempting fragrance, and running faster than ever before, wishing that he would be able to fly back immediately to have a big meal.

After the three of them came back, the family officially started dinner.

"It's so delicious! Is this braised pork! It's even better than what I had at Chang'an Restaurant last time!"

"Mother is amazing! I can eat three bowls of rice with one piece of meat!"

"Me too, if it wasn't for this straw that couldn't be bitten, I would have swallowed it together!"

Jiang Yan listened to the satisfied sighs of several people, and she also ate it happily. One bite, full of mellow taste, sweet but not greasy. This taste is even more delicious than what she has eaten before, and the bibimbap with sauce is even more delicious. can't stop.

So she couldn't help herself, so she ate two bowls of white rice and one bowl of white porridge, and ate more than half of it, so she just kept going.
