Wearing 80s in the supermarket, she was pampered by rough guys

Chapter 64 Sour Plum Soup and Yellow Braised Chicken

The autumn wind has come, all the dust has settled, it is cold dew, Lijiagou has already harvested in autumn, and there is no farm work in the village, so Xinghua and the others have to go out of the village to find some work.

Early in the morning, Yuan Xiaoyu sniffed a strong fragrance, and opened the back window of the bedroom to see an osmanthus tree standing behind the courtyard on the west side, and the osmanthus almost bloomed overnight, golden and shattered. The flowers are hidden under the dark green leaves, and have a strong fragrance.

The golden osmanthus is fragrant, and the autumn wind is pleasant.

She got interested in sweet-scented osmanthus and wanted to cook some food, but sweet-scented osmanthus and the others came early in the morning to help with some work, otherwise the wages would be too high, and she always felt indebted to earn so much money without doing chores. .

"Hey, we smelled the fragrance of flowers as soon as we came here, but it incensed my clothes!"

"Presumably, the skewers at noon can still be dyed with a scent!"

"Haha, don't be chased and stung by bees!"

The sisters-in-law had long since lost their childishness, so Xinghua accompanied Yuan Xiaoyu to the backyard to admire the flowers. The two of them couldn't stay idle, and filled a bag full of sweet-scented osmanthus flowers in clean bamboo baskets.

Xinghua has also been used to the wild in the village since she was a child, and it is not difficult to pick flowers from trees.

Originally, sweet-scented osmanthus would fall when blown, and they all picked some ripe buds, which are fragrant and colorful, and it would be good to make some for food.

Yuan Xiaoyu remembered that there were still two packs of her favorite snack ebony plums left in the room, so she wanted to cook a pot of sour plum soup, so that she could share some with the customers who bought skewers at noon.

Although hot and dry skewers can dispel the chill in autumn, but if you eat too much, your mouth will dry out, and it will also make you feel comfortable when you eat it with sweet and sour osmanthus plum soup, and it will also keep your mouth and mouth fragrant.

She asked Xinghua to light a fire, and went to the house to get the ingredients for making sour plum soup, dark plums, rock sugar, licorice, and hawthorn.In fact, it is better to add a tangerine peel. The tangerine peel has the effect of regulating qi, invigorating the spleen, drying dampness and reducing phlegm. It is a good medicinal food material whether it is stewing soup or cooking, but at this time, there is no tangerine peel in the supermarket.

But Yuan Xiaoyu added a taste of honeysuckle. Originally, she soaked water to drink it herself, but she thought that Lin Ling had been eating skewers for three or four days in a row. One or two yuan is eaten almost every day.Yuan Xiaoyu was also afraid that they would get angry and get abscesses in their mouths, so today he added some honeysuckle to the sour plum soup to remove the fire.

The pot is big, add dozens of catties of water, add black plums, hawthorn honeysuckle, licorice, rock sugar, boil for more than half an hour, and finally add some sweet-scented osmanthus when the pot is about to start, boil for five to six minutes, absorbed Xiangxiang picked up these materials with a claw fence and threw them away.

It is very refreshing when it is naturally cooled.

Yuan Xiaoyu drank half a bowl while it was hot. Compared with the cold one, it didn't have the same flavor, but the taste was not bad, and there was a scent of sweet-scented osmanthus on the tip of the tongue.

I don't know how much better it is than the kind of sour plum powder that is used in later generations of restaurants.

"This sweet taste is much better than brown sugar water!"

"Bah, brown sugar water is so expensive and expensive, you just said it is worthless!"

Wu Juxiang and Chen Mei were joking, but this simple sweet soup cost a lot of rock sugar, they looked at Yuan Xiaoyu's ingredients, it was several catties!They clicked their tongues!
Today, I didn’t even add more water to the bone broth, but it was thicker, and the other half was added with hot eagle tea, so it didn’t have any strange smell, and it tasted refreshing.

What we do is to eat the four directions, and also eat the four seasons. People follow the solar terms, and also conform to the right time and place, and finally pay attention to the harmony of people.

But it can't kill so many sweet-scented osmanthus. Luckily, Liu Fang brought a bamboo basket. Half of the sweet-scented osmanthus can be stored for a while after being dried in the sun. Maybe it can kill a year's time and let the autumn spread.

She would like to boil the rest of the sweet-scented osmanthus honey, but it’s hard to find wild honey these days, and it’s even rarer than rock sugar. If she usually gets a jar from the supermarket, she’ll have to be curious. Stealthily boil a few cans, drink some water, and make some pastries to eat!

This kind of sweet water is neither hungry nor full, and you still have to cook a solid meal, otherwise you will not be able to work hard. After all, it is still very difficult to push a cart and a small stall for more than half an hour. tired.

Yuan Xiaoyu prepared it yesterday, and today he brought a fat chicken weighing five or six catties, chopped it into pieces with a big knife, and then cut some side dishes, potatoes, vermicelli, and peppers.I also soaked a bowl of dried shiitake mushrooms in advance. This is the game from the mountain brought by Grandma Yang when she came to the house yesterday. The village dried it by itself. The taste is also wild. It is not as thick as artificially planted, but it is better than a scent. up.

Heat the oil in the pan, put the chicken nuggets into the iron pan and stir-fry when it smokes. Eat some soy sauce, just put a little of both, add some rock sugar and stir fry together, add an star anise after the fragrant sauce comes out.

Yuan Xiaoyu doesn't like to eat particularly strong spices, but likes the unique taste of the ingredients themselves, so when cooking by herself, she doesn't deliberately use heavy oil and ingredients.But it is true that eating too much spices is not good for your health, so you only have occasional spicy and satisfying Sichuan dishes when your mouth is hungry, and the rest of the home-cooked dishes are as original as possible.

Put the soaked shiitake mushrooms and the shiitake mushroom water into the chicken first. The most important thing for this braised chicken is the shiitake mushroom water. Without this, it really can’t get the taste!

First simmer on low heat for about ten minutes, then put the potato cubes in. After simmering for about twenty minutes, it will become soft and rotten. At this time, it will fall apart when you poke it with chopsticks, and the soup will become sticky because of the potatoes. Thick, almost add chili, adjust the base flavor with salt and then collect a juice on high heat, it's perfect!

The scent of sweet-scented osmanthus flowers all over the yard seems to be covered up. At this time, the meat is the most real and comforting, mostly to fill the stomach.

This soup with rice is the most gratifying, even Yuan Xiaoyu couldn't help eating two bowls of rice.

People in Lijiagou have never eaten such a good dish, and they have never seen this kind of cooking method. Almost all meat dishes in the village are stewed with some sauce, and there is no need to pay attention to the order, time, and heat.

Granny Yang took a bite of the chicken and couldn't help sighing, "My dear, this chicken will be mushy once you bite into it!"

Wu Juxiang smiled while eating, "You can't stop your mouth if it's delicious. Look, Li Xing has added a second bowl of rice!"

That is, the battlefield is on the dinner table, who will wait for you if you have delicious food!Who in the village can eat a bite of meat during this slack season?

Everyone was very happy, thanks to being with Yuan Xiaoyu, this one meal a day is better than their own corn noodles for a week without changing it!
