Chapter 17 Of course I have to eat rabbits
Daya took out a wooden basin from the mule cart, and Wei Xiaoman carefully inspected the remaining two rabbits with intact skeletons to make sure that the hairs were all shaved off and that there were no internal organs left. Go into the tub and roll up the sleeves with both hands.

The first step is to rub salt on the rabbit, mixed with ginger slices and scallions, and rub every inch of the skin inside and out.

The scallions are a little wilted because they have been stored for a long time, but it doesn't matter, as long as they can be eaten.

Wiping the sweat off his forehead with his elbow, Wei Xiaoman stood up and shook his hands.

"It needs to be marinated for a quarter of an hour. During this time, you can make the wild vegetable soup first."

Seeing that other people were still staring at the rabbit meat on the plate and in the pot, even Wen Yu was not spared, Wei Xiaoman felt that they could not be left idle, so she simply gave up the wild vegetable soup and only gave instructions.

Duan saw that there was not much help here, so she took her second son Xu Fengnian to clean up the place to sleep at night, so there were only a group of children left here.

"Da Ya, go and wash the wild vegetables you picked in the afternoon."

"Erya, don't hide, you have a share too, go and build two shelves for roasting rabbits later."

"Nuan Bao, Dong Bao, you two go get more firewood, there are not many firewood left, remember to remind the family to pick up more firewood tomorrow."

"Xiaobao (Xu Henian), help the elder sister pick and wash wild vegetables."

"As for girl Yu—" Wei Xiaoman looked at the remaining work, and Wen Yu who was looking forward to it, "You can help pass the firewood later, just don't let the fire go out."

After the arrangement was made, everyone received the task and went according to Wei Xiaoman's arrangement.

Wen Yu also felt very new about this, she knew a little about alchemy, but she had never tried cooking.

However, I heard from A Niang that cooking is similar to alchemy. The raw materials are prepared and then put into the cauldron in order. At the same time, pay attention to controlling the heat. When the various materials are completely fused, quickly control the alchemy.

There is only one thing that is strange, Dad never let himself eat the dishes made by A-Niang, and he always used various reasons to keep A-Niang away from the kitchen.

Isn't cooking easy?

Wen Yu was gearing up, eager to try, waiting for Da Ya to bring over the wild vegetables.

Because it’s already summer and we’re in the north, the wild vegetables picked these days are mainly purslane. There are many names for this kind of wild vegetables, such as grasshopper vegetables, long-lived vegetables, and Wufangcao, which taste sour and can clear away heat. Eliminate edema, remove ulcers, or medicinal herbs.

Xiaobao and Da Ya each held a handful, they had already washed it by the river, put it on the board, Da Ya picked up the kitchen knife, and cut it open with a few clicks.

Wei Xiaoman has already filled the iron pot with water, and the rabbit meat soup left on the pot just now can still taste.

Da Ya threw the simply chopped purslane into the pot, and passed the salt jar to Wei Xiaoman. Da Ya didn't handle the spoon very often, and she still couldn't put enough salt, so she had to let her mother come.

Wen Yu carefully looked at the earth pit under the iron pot, holding two or three firewood in his hand, ready to replenish at any time.

For this fire pile, a hole is dug on the ground first, and then a shelf is built on the hole, and an iron pot is placed, which is convenient and simple.

This method of burying stoves, also known as marching stoves, is the most commonly used method of lighting fires and cooking in the army. Due to frequent wars, even ordinary people have mastered this method.

The light of the fire was sparse, and the fire weakened. Wen Yu's eyes lit up, and he was about to pass in the firewood in his hand, when he heard Wei Xiaoman's loud and clear voice.

"Okay, take it down."

Is this all right?

Oh - the water is boiling!
Wei Xiaoman held the handle of the iron pot with both hands, brought down half a pot of wild vegetable soup, put it aside to dry, then picked up a few firewood and threw it into the earthen stove, turned around and met Wen Yu's slightly surprised eyes.

Wen Yu: Tim Chai, mine!

Wei Xiaoman didn't think of any reason for a while, so he didn't care.

Children, ideas always jump very fast!

Nuanbao and Dongbao had just finished making the shelves, Wei Xiaoman pressed them, and they were still strong enough to hang on.

Estimated that the time was about the same, Wei Xiaoman picked up two marinated rabbits from the wooden basin, passed them through with two sticks, hung them on the shelf, and rubbed pepper on the rabbits while turning them over.

She heard that it would be best if there were chili peppers, but unfortunately, the landlord did not bring any chili peppers, and only found a handful of peppers, which can also be used for flavor.

I don't know where Wei Xiaoman learned the technique of grilling meat. The skills of turning, rolling, hitting, shaking, sliding and brushing are proficient, not like a novice.

Not long after, a smell that was completely different from the fried mutton before spread.

The sun has set, the moon is high in the sky, the leaves are rustling, with a cool wind blowing, and the aroma of roasted rabbits, sizzling.

The people who were cooking or eating were some distance away from the Xu family.

Everyone: No, I can't control my eyes and mouth.

I knew that they had changed some seasonings. I thought it was too expensive and not worth it, but I didn't expect it to be so fragrant.

That's what Cui Xing thought. Although his family also made rabbit meat and pheasant meat, compared with Xu's family, it tasted bland.

It's okay, smelling the meat of Xu's family, eating a bite of homemade rabbit meat is equivalent to eating rabbit meat made with seasoning.

That's right, that's it!

A pair of hands holding the barbecue grill turned slightly, a few drops of oil were about to fall, and Wei Xiaoman quickly brushed it on the rabbit with his quick eyes, so the fragrance became stronger, combined with pepper and rabbit meat, it formed an extremely powerful and overbearing smell that occupied all senses .

The skin of the soft and firm rabbit meat is golden yellow, the seasoning is evenly applied, and the particles are distinct. Once you bite it, the savory oily aroma will burst out, filling the mouth, and rolling up another storm of deliciousness.

If you bite gently with your teeth, the crispy crispy meat will make a cracking sound, oil and water will be left along the corners of your mouth, and the aroma of barbecued meat will penetrate into your nose.

The first bite will only taste the strong flavor of the seasoning, and the second bite will allow you to savor the warm and tender rabbit meat. You swallow it down your throat, and you can't wait to taste the next bite.

cough!
Cough!

Wen Yu choked on her own saliva, and then realized that she was so greedy, and it was obvious that she had never eaten jade plate delicacies in the cultivation world.

How could I, a dignified Jindan real person, be attracted to this kind of snack!

At most... I just want to taste what it tastes like.

Turning his head slightly, he saw a few drops of unknown liquid dripping from the corner of the mouth of the eldest sister who had always been calm and introverted, and then swallowed heavily, staring straight at the golden rabbit meat.

Wen Yu twitched the corners of his mouth, his eyebrows and eyes curved into crescent moons.

It doesn't seem to be a shame, I'm a mortal now, it's normal to get hungry easily!
The waiting time is tough, especially when you have delicious meat in front of you.

(Wen·I am just a mortal now·Yu once said.)
After Duan and Xu Fengnian had cleaned up the places where everyone slept at night, and Xu Guman and his wife Cui also finished their baths and washed their old clothes, Xu Boss and Xu's Second Brother, who had finished patrolling, arrived late .

To show justice, today's patrol started from Xu's house, that's why it was so late.

After the two brothers washed their hands and sat down at the prepared wooden table, Mrs. Duan also helped Mrs. Xu over.

Everyone is here, it can finally start!
On Wen Yu's left is Da Ya, and on the right is Wei Xiaoman, holding wooden chopsticks that were just sharpened today, and her eyes locked on the fried rabbit meat on the table.

No one plans to say anything before the meal. The moment they pick up the chopsticks, a war about food begins!

Swords and swords, gunpowder smoke everywhere, dazzling, and messy cups and plates.

Tutu, died.

　　4. Soy sauce
　　The earliest soy sauce: "醢".

　　"Zhou Li Tian Guan Shan Fu" records that the emperor's diet has six categories: rice, drink, meal, delicacies, delicacies, and sauces. The sauce refers to the predecessor of today's soy sauce, but the soy sauce in that period is very different from today. .The earliest soy sauce was made by chopping animal meat into puree and then fermenting it, which is called "醢". The fish sauce eaten in Fujian and Guangdong today is the continuation and inheritance of this sauce-making process.

　　During the Han Dynasty: soybeans were used as sauce.Jia Sixie of the Northern Wei Dynasty recorded the method of making soybean paste in "Qi Min Yao Shu": December and the first month are the best time to make soybean paste.February is the middle season, and March is the latest.It is necessary to use an impermeable urn, use the black soybeans planted in spring as the material, dry steam in a large steamer, take it out after steaming, and dry it in the sun, then steam it repeatedly, then shake it clean, pound it, and remove it. Heipi, add salt, wheat koji and other ingredients, mix it into the urn, and let it dry in the sun for a full 100 days, so that the sauce can be really ripe, rich and fragrant, this is the early bean paste.

　　Song Dynasty: soy sauce in the true sense.In fact, the word "soy sauce" did not officially appear until the Song Dynasty, which also means that modern soy sauce in the true sense began to be produced.

　　5. Oil

　　Flax (sesame) was introduced to China in the Han Dynasty, and flax oil began to be used in large quantities.

　　Soybean oil has a longer history, but the physical pressing method does not taste very good.
