Chapter 43 Winter Melon Duck Porridge

Father Yu has put in all his energy for today's dinner.

The lights in the house are colorful, and the dishes on the table are colorful.

"Ah Jian, winter melon and old duck porridge, nourishing qi and nourishing health!" Father Yu came over with a bowl of white glutinous porridge, put it in front of Jian Yu, and looked at his daughter expectantly.

Look at this small face, the chin is pointed and thin, and the cheekbones are so thin that they protrude.Even so, the daughter is still pretty, but Father Yu doesn't want to raise a sister Lin.He handed the spoon in his hand to his daughter, and ordered some more bowls: "Taste it."

The summer in Raoping is sweltering and humid, and people always want to cook some food in line with the climate to cool off the heat.This winter melon and duck stew is one of them.

Father Yu bought the ducks from a teal-raiser in the west of the village before dawn, plucked the feathers and brought them back whole, and spent the early morning deboning them in the kitchen.Blanch the duck bone, scallion and ginger first to boil out the blood foam impurities, then remove and clean.Duck bone soup should be boiled in cold water in a pressure cooker. The duck has a strong flavor without fishy smell.

The rice uses Thai jasmine rice, which was bought and sent back by Yu's father some time ago.People in the south like to use indica rice to cook porridge, but Papa Yu thinks that Thai rice is more delicious.The rice needs to be soaked for [-] minutes, which is called Kaimi.

Good porridge depends on the heat. Dad Yu turned on the pressure cooker, and the rich duck aroma came out. He found a large casserole, poured duck soup, boiled on high heat, poured fragrant rice, added scallops and shredded ginger, and put it on low heat. Bring to a simmer.

Slice the duck meat into thin slices, stir with ginger and scallions, add a spoonful of cooking oil, and marinate for [-] minutes.

Heat up the oil in a hot pan, sauté shredded shiitake mushrooms until fragrant and colored, then pour into the simmering porridge.The wax gourd is cut into pieces, cooked together with the porridge until it turns transparent, then slide into the duck slices and bring to a boil over high heat.

When it is finally out of the pot, sprinkle a handful of celery and coriander. This is a dehumidification item suitable for all ages-winter melon and old duck porridge.

Yu Jian quietly looked at the bowl of porridge in front of her, and slowly cooled it down, then picked up the spoon, took a small spoonful and put it into her mouth.The saltiness is moderate, the softness of winter melon, the tenderness of duck slices, and the light fragrance of rice grains are all perfectly integrated.

good to eat!One mouthful after another, the movements in her hands continued, and after a while, the whole bowl of porridge was drained.

"How does it taste?" Huang Nuan pretended to be a demon across the table, her eyelashes fluttering and her face full of teasing.

Yu Jian silently picked up a tissue, wiped her mouth, and replied, "Of course...it's very delicious!"

The eyebrows are raised, which means: Do you want to eat?No!

Huang Nuan couldn't steal a lot of rice, but unexpectedly, Yu Jian choked, twisted her body and leaned her head on Chen Xinyi's shoulder, and said, "Look at her, she's a bully!"

Chen Xinyi clicked her tongue twice, and pulled her away indifferently: "It deserves it." Who told you to go to the muzzle of the gun to carry the bullet by yourself.

The dinner was so sumptuous that Huang Nuan wanted to stay at Yu's house and not leave.Stir-fried rice cakes with swimming crab, curry beef, steamed sea bass, braised chicken with perilla and flower snails, and even a pot of stir-fried shrimp skin loofah made her tongue-swallowing.

Putting down the chopsticks, she struggled for a long time, and finally made up her mind: "Uncle Yu, how about I be your daughter too?" Anyway, her parents are too busy making money to care about her, so it's better to hug the Yu family's thighs, even if Yu Uncle will grow old in the future, and there will be Yu Jian, she must not worry about delicious food!

what the hell? ?
Father Yu's hand holding the chicken leg trembled, as if he didn't hear what he said just now, he stretched his chopsticks into Yu Jian's bowl, and said softly, "Ah Jian, eat quickly."

joke? !
He didn't want this foodie daughter who came halfway.It's still his Ah Jian, no matter how you look at it, how good it is.

After the meal, Huang Nuan touched his round stomach with one hand, and pulled the door frame of the kitchen with the other hand, looked at Father Yu who was washing the dishes inside and shouted: "Uncle, do you really think about it again? I may take care of you in the future." what……"

Before she finished speaking, what greeted her was a piece of peeled ginger and a nine-yin white bone claw screwed on her ear.

Chen Xinyi kept sneering: "I recorded it for you and sent it to your dad. You can wait until you get home and get beaten up."

……

The old man went to bed early, and today he had a lot of trouble, so he lost his energy, so he reluctantly chatted with Yu Jian and went back to his room to rest.

Yu Jian heard the sound of the kitchen door closing outside and the study door opening again after a while, she thought for a while, took her things and walked out of the room.

"Come in..." Hearing the sound of the door panel being knocked, Father Yu said in the study, his voice fluttering.

When she opened the door, Yu Jian saw her old father standing on a chair with his butt pouted looking through the top cabinet, and he knew what he was looking for.The chair legs obviously couldn't bear the huge pressure on it, and they creaked and creaked.

With a sway, Father Yu's fat body also swayed, and he quickly stopped his movements, bending his legs slightly to stabilize his figure.Seeing Yu Jian's disapproving gaze, she sneered, "I'll come down now..."

It was too late to say it, and the chair shook violently, and it seemed that it was about to fall.Yu Jian stepped forward and supported him firmly.

Sitting safely on the chair, Father Yu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead: "I lost weight, and I will definitely lose weight when I return to the capital."

See, give yourself time.

"What are you looking for?" Yu Jian asked after looking at the cabinet.

"It's the one with the blue cover, over there." Father Yu pointed it out to her.

Yu Jian stepped onto the chair again, with her toes padded and her arms stretched out, she took the book and jumped off the chair.

Steady and steady, all in one go.

He also glanced at Father Yu by the way.

Father Yu thought he was in the wrong, and quickly changed the subject: "What's wrong? You still don't rest so late."

Yu Jian took out the recipe that had been put aside just now, and handed it to him.

Unexpectedly, Father Yu snatched it away, quickly opened the drawer and threw it to the inside, then closed the drawer, and locked it by the way.With a wave of his hand, he said proudly: "Girl, we don't want this recipe anymore!"

He knows it!My daughter must have gotten sick from this crappy recipe.It's also his fault that he insisted on sending the recipe to his daughter so cheaply.The daughter must feel that the burden on her shoulders is too heavy, and she is sick because of excessive worry.

"Ah Jian, don't worry about recipes or not. You see, I, Yu Jianguo, have lived without a recipe? Your grandfather, great-grandfather, and those old ancestors have all turned to ashes. Can you take care of the offspring? And your Uncle Jianping, it’s fine to steal recipes, but to open a restaurant, you have to open another restaurant, saying that your grandfather entrusted him with a dream. Pooh! Your grandfather, your grandfather has long been reincarnated I'll find another grandma for you..."

"dad."

Yu Jian interrupted his eloquent rant, and smiled lightly. She knew in her heart why the old father said these words, but now she also has her responsibilities, and she also has something she wants to protect.

She walked up to her father, twisted the lock, opened the drawer, and took out the half cookbook.

"I have read all the above carefully, and it is not completely impossible. Although the times have changed, there are always things that can be replaced. In the past, people used extreme cooking techniques because they did not have high-tech appliances. Now There are many skills that can make up for it. Dad, I want to try to see if I can restore all the dishes in the recipe. Would you like to help me?"

What?
What is she talking about? ?
Father Yu petrified in place, staring blankly at his daughter's Qiaoxiaoqianxi face.

Her daughter, isn't she really sick and confused? ? ?
