I loaded the farm game

Lin Zhou burned the paper money stained with pig red, lit three incense sticks and stuck them on the ground. After performing the ritual of worship, he returned to the place where the pigs were killed.

At this time, Zhou Shuhan and the others no longer pressed the pig, but stood aside and watched the pig butcher scalding the pig hair with hot water.

I saw Master Sha holding a hot water bottle and pouring a small stream of hot water from the spout onto the pig's body.

Soon, after pouring a pot of water, he handed the kettle to Chen Guodong and asked him to help him fetch water. He used a plane to shave the pig hair on the place where the hot water had just been scalded!

As soon as he scraped with the plane in his hand, the pig hair in that area was shaved smooth, revealing the pig skin inside.

The whole process was very relaxing to watch!

"master!"

"Do you have more planes? We also want to help!" Zhou Shuhan looked at his movements and felt a little moved.

After all, with just one stroke of the knife, the pig hair will be clean and extremely smooth, making people want to try it unconsciously.

Hearing this, the pig butcher didn't refuse: "I brought two more handfuls, I'll get them for you!"

He probably also understood that people like Chen Guodong should be the kind of young people who come from the city to experience the countryside.

The cigarettes that the other party gave him just now were all brands he had never seen before, but the smell was better than any cigarettes he had ever smoked before.

Therefore, he had some idea that these people must be either rich or noble.

"Brother Zhou!"

"You were in the cooking class before, so you must have killed pigs, right? Why don't you leave the pig shaving job to me and Brother Zhang later?" He Shaojun said to Zhou Shuhan with a smile.

"Old He, I told you that I am in the cooking class and have only been working for a while. I am not a professional cook. Don't mistakenly think that I have done everything!" Zhou Shuhan's face darkened.

"If I had killed this pig, I wouldn't have suggested it to the master! I will definitely want a handful of the master's plane later, and you two will divide the rest between you!"

"..." He Shaojun's expression suddenly dropped, and he turned to look at Zhang Tianyu pitifully: "Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang, you are my brother——"

"Am I really your brother?" Zhang Tianyu interrupted him.

"Really!" He Shaojun looked happy.

Unexpectedly, the next second he saw Zhang Tianyu patting his shoulder affectionately:

"Good brother, then you just listen to me. If you can't handle this pig shaving job, let me do it!"

"..." He Shaojun's lips twitched, he was losing his wife and his troops at the same time.

"Hahahaha! Just stop arguing and come back later! I think when Lao Chen comes back later, he may have to get involved!" Zhou Shuhan couldn't help but smile.

"Row!"

The two nodded lightly, and then they saw Lin Zhou coming back. For a moment, they couldn't help but look at him with expressions on their faces.

This appearance made Lin Zhou a little confused.

"What are you doing?"

"Brother Lin, you must have shaved a pig before, right?"

"Scraped, what's wrong?"

Lin Zhou nodded and replied that when his family used to kill the New Year pig, they did it for fun.

However, at that time, shaving was not good and slow, so the adults disliked it and did not let him play.

"That's good!"

Hearing his words, He Shaojun and the two men immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and then stared at him eagerly:

"Brother Lin, since you have shaved pig hair before, you definitely won't steal it from us, right?"

"..." The flesh on Lin Zhou's face trembled: "Is this what you two are doing?"

They both nodded.

The muscles on Lin Zhou's face trembled again: "You go ahead and shave! I won't fight with you!"

Then, he saw the two people gearing up with happy faces, looking particularly excited.

"..." Lin Zhou laughed dumbly: "Old He, don't think that shaving pig hair is simple. There is also something special about it!"

"???"

He Shaojun and the others immediately looked at him with puzzled faces.

They had plucked chicken feathers before, and when they saw the master using a tool to scrape them, they felt that the pig hairs should be similar to chicken feathers. As long as they were scalded with hot water, it would be an easy task. Unexpectedly, Lin Zhou actually said that there was a secret to it. .

However, at this moment, the pig butcher who had taken the tools came back and handed two pig-shaving planes to Zhou Shuhan.

"master!"

"What's the trick for shaving pig hair?" Zhou Shuhan took the plane and asked directly.

When the pig butcher heard this, he was slightly startled, and then explained with a smile: "When it comes to skills, there are actually no skills. There is one thing that needs to be paid attention to, that is, when shaving, you must shave in the direction of the pig's hair."

"Because in this way, we can better pull out the pig hairs from the pig skin!"

"And if you scrape against the pig's hair, it will easily cause broken piles. The roots of the pig's hair will break inside the pig's skin, which is difficult to handle."

“There is a saying that I don’t know if you have heard of it, that is, “If you don’t have a butcher, you will eat pigs with hair on them.” This means that when the pig hair is removed, it is not removed completely!”

After saying that, the pig butcher pointed to the pig lying on the pig killing bench, "As for the fate of this pig's hair, you can tell it at a glance."

"Other than this, there is nothing else to pay attention to!"

"Oh! When shaving pig hair, you can actually use hot water on it while shaving. It's easier and cleaner this way!"

"So that's it. Thank you, master, for explaining it to us!" After Zhou Shuhan and the others heard this, they nodded repeatedly, indicating that they had gained more knowledge!

In fact, let’s not talk about it. If you don’t know something as simple as this, it can easily lead to two completely different consequences.

If you simply let them shave, it must be done according to your own wishes, and they will basically not care whether it is shaved along the pig's hair.

At that time, you will get a pig that fails to shed hair.

"No, no, it's nothing!" The pig butcher waved his hand and continued to scrape.

When Zhou Shuhan and the others saw this, their hands were itchy. After all, they had just listened to the master's explanation and were about to take action and practice it for themselves to verify.

Therefore, everyone took a plane and started to use their hands on the hair on the pig.

Soon, Chen Guodong, who went to fetch water, came back and saw that they were already shaving off the pig hair. Just as they said, he decisively asked to join.

Then, the four of them divided the work and took turns.

Change back and forth between shaving and watering.

Each and every one of them worked very hard, and their hair was shaved so cleanly.

When watering, I also shouted, water myself more.

This scene looks like a New Year pig is being killed in the countryside and the young people in the village are invited to help.

Especially Chen Guodong and the others were wearing standard aprons and sleeves on their hands.

"Lin Zhou! You pig, the quality of your pork is really good!"

"I'm sure that none of the pigs I've killed over the years are as good as yours!"

The pig butcher uses an iron hook to pull off the shell of a pig's hoof, revealing the slightly reddish tip of the hoof inside. Immediately afterwards, he handed the tools to Zhou Shuhan and the others, and asked them to use the remaining pig feet.

This is also their own request.

Pulling the skin off the chicken's feet was a pleasure for Chen Guodong, so when he saw the pig's trotters peeling off the hooves, he also asked for help.

"Master! You haven't even disemboweled the pig yet, do you know that the meat of this pig is good?" Chen Guodong hooked the pig's trotters with a hook and pulled hard, and the outer shell of the hoof was peeled off.

Zhou Shuhan and the three of them also looked at the pig-killing master curiously.

"Hahahaha!" The master smiled heartily and pointed at the wound under the pig's neck:

"Although it hasn't been disembowelled, isn't this a stabbing?"

"Of course, there's also this pig's blood!"

"Uh-" Chen Guodong's eyes lit up and he asked curiously: "Master, do you have anything to say?"

He was particularly interested in these things.

However, the pig-killing master shook his head at him: "If you insist on saying anything, I can't make any big reason. I can only tell a little bit based on my experience in killing pigs over the years!"

"I just saw the smell and color of the blood, and the smell of meat after the wound was cleaned when handling pig hair, and I came to this conclusion!"

"I don't know how to tell you this feeling. Anyway, through these two points, I can basically judge the general quality of a pig."

"Let me smell it!" Upon hearing this, Chen Guodong handed the hook to He Shaojun, ran to the pig blood, squatted down, and fanned the smell to his nose.

Seeing his move, Zhou Shuhan couldn't help but smile:

"How's it going? Lao Chen, can you smell it? If not, you can come and smell the back. You'll definitely be able to smell it!"

"Go, go!" Chen Guodong waved at him in disgust, followed closely, and sniffed twice more carefully.

The next moment, he raised his head and shouted to them:

"Old Zhou! Come and smell it, this blood actually has an indescribable fragrance!"

"Smell? Old Chen, are you hungry?" When Zhou Shuhan heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched.

However, the other person walked over honestly, squatted by the basin, and smelled it.

Soon, a surprised sound came out of his mouth: "Hey! It seems like there really is one!"

Hearing what he said, the other two people also gathered around and looked surprised when they heard it.

"Brother, you pig, you must have been fed with spices, right? Even the blood has a unique aroma!"

Zhou Shuhan asked very surprised.

You must know that this pig blood is from a freshly killed pig. Logically speaking, the smell of blood should be very strong.

But they smelled like blood, but the smell of blood, how can I put it! It's not nauseating or irritating, it feels pretty bland.

On the contrary, the scent that Chen Guodong mentioned seems even more unique!

You can smell something unusual inside as soon as you smell it.

"No!" Lin Zhou shook his head: "Stop smelling it and come over to help. It's time to hang up the pig and disembowel it!"

After Zhou Shuhan and others heard this, they also came over and helped hang the pig on the shelf.

Although there is a strange aroma from the pig blood, it is not incomprehensible compared to the magic here in Linzhou.

Therefore, they didn't pay too much attention, but in their hearts, they were even more looking forward to the taste of this blood in their mouths later!

After a while.

With their busy work, this fat pig weighing four to five hundred pounds was hung up.

The master butcher took a knife and skillfully disemboweled the pig.

Immediately afterwards, the things in the pig's body were taken out one by one.

Pork intestines, pork belly, pork liver, pork heart, pork lungs, pork loin...

These things, taken out from the pig's body, are still warm and extremely fresh.

Moreover, as the pig's belly is opened, the meaty aroma of the pork inside spreads.

Compared with the stinky smell that I smelled when killing pigs before, the smell of this pig is obviously different.

The sour smell is very light, and the meat flavor is stronger, almost masked by the smell of meat.

Also, when the internal organs are taken out, the layered texture and bright texture of the pork inside can be seen at a glance.

Even the pig butcher who performed the dissection couldn't help but admire the quality of the meat. He has been butchering pigs for many years and has never seen such a good pig!

Moreover, when the offal and pig offal were taken out, the pig butcher would sigh and say what kind of dish they were made into. It tasted absolutely delicious! It’s absolutely relaxing to have a drink and a meal!

Chen Guodong and the others next to them, when they heard the name of the dishes announced by the master, pictures of the finished dishes seemed to appear in their minds.

Ever since, everyone couldn't help but swallow wildly.

Later, I had to give advice to the master, telling him not to read it anymore!

After taking out the contents of the pig, the master washed the inside with water, and then used a knife to cut the whole pig into two halves!

After the pig is divided into two halves, it can no longer be hung and decomposed. After all, this is only for the convenience of disemboweling and removing the pig's internal organs.

When the internal organs are removed, the decomposition of the whole pig will be done on the chopping board.

Therefore, Lin Zhou and the others took off the two halves of the pig body and placed them on a large chopping board.

The pig-killing master took a knife and a tool like an iron pestle. He used the knife to polish the iron rod twice while demonstrating the pig decomposition technique to them.

In order to satisfy their curiosity, the master also told them about every part of the pig's meat.

Chen Guodong and the others were familiar with the common pork belly and tenderloin, but they didn't know the specific parts. Now, with the detailed introduction by the master, they all knew it one by one.

Tenderloin is the meat on the back of the pig, and pork belly is the pork belly meat just below it.

As for the less common ones, such as plum blossom meat, I heard that each pig weighs only about five or six kilograms of this piece of meat, and it grows between the pork neck and tenderloin.

Although the quantity is small, it is said that this meat is the essence of pig meat. It is particularly tender and more fragrant and delicious than tenderloin.

There are also rump meat, pork cheek meat...

In addition, when introducing these meats, the chef was also very enthusiastic in explaining to them what kind of meat and what method is suitable for it.

For example, tenderloin is best shredded and diced, and is suitable for making dishes such as fish-flavored shredded pork and kung pao chicken.

Pork belly is alternately fat and lean, suitable for making twice-cooked pork, braised pork, Dongpo pork, etc.

Chen Guodong and the others benefited a lot from each position.

Even Lin Zhou has a deeper understanding of the meat from pigs.

Which kind of meat is suitable for frying, which kind is suitable for making dumplings, and which kind is suitable for making steamed pork.

These are indeed very helpful for eating.

After all, the taste of dishes made from different parts of meat is really different.
