Chapter 137 Workshop
Killing a pig requires leaving the butcher and helpers to eat the pig-killing rice, which is not as troublesome as preparing a banquet. It is called pig-killing rice, but it is actually a dish made of pig internal organs - pig heart, lungs, pork belly and intestines. Add these, boiled pig blood, stew in a whole pot, add aniseed, then add radish and cabbage, stew until soft and rotten, the taste is more fragrant than anything else!

The two big stoves were cooking loudly, and the big guys who had finished killing the pigs and cleaning up the blood on the ground outside had been sitting by the brazier chatting for a while. When the pig-killing rice finally started, it was actually about the same time as lunch. .

Despite the two full pots and the dozens of helpers and apprentices, there was simply not enough to eat. Mrs. Song waited for the pig-killing rice to be eaten and drank, and then quickly added the fat meat to the vegetables. He bought a large pottery pot and cooked a pot of cabbage with oil residue, and then he gathered the helpers and apprentices to start the meal.

In the food workshop, there are five more helpers preparing food today. If the Li clan got pomegranates early in the morning, they would go back to the clan and call them. The eldest eldest son, Li Ronghuai’s daughter-in-law, Mrs. Liu, and others.

When I first came in the morning, I was doing some work behind the scenes. After watching it all morning, I learned how to do things I didn’t know. After dinner, Pomegranate divided the two of them into the group of pounding meat. He joined the group that was frying the pork floss, and the other group was assigned to the group that was packing the remaining pork floss. Since there was not enough stove, we took turns first so that we could rest our hands and arms.

All the eggs and duck eggs that should be collected in the village were collected. The salted egg yolks in the wooden racks that were made two days ago in the morning were just enough time. Pomegranate helped to pick up the salted egg yolks, washed them with water, and checked them by the way. , ensuring that each salted egg yolk is marinated in place, and then handed over to Jiang and Pang for packaging.

The things to be packed are also specially made in wooden drawers, which are like food boxes, but not as fine as food boxes, and they are also lighter. There are twenty salted egg yolks in one drawer, and one hundred salted egg yolks in one box.

When the time comes, four hundred pills will be sent to four boxes, and the used boxes from Xinglongzhai will be replaced and used again.

Pull out all the salted egg yolks from the four wooden racks on the west wall, and you will get two hundred and forty salted egg yolks. Let the white flour marinade dry, and then you can pickle the egg yolks again. It’s just that the second time you pickle the egg yolks, you have to reduce it by half, so you only pickle ten yolks.

Usually it is replaced after marinating twice.

According to the scientific saying of later generations, the salted white noodles that were replaced can no longer be eaten. The nitrite is too heavy and eating too much will cause cancer.

But these white noodles and salt are both things that most people are reluctant to part with. As early as the first time when Pomegranate was about to throw away the salty white noodles after making salted egg yolks, Mrs. Song was shocked and hurriedly stopped her. She said nothing and didn't let her pour it. Later, she used the salted white flour to mix water and cooked a pot of gnocchi soup. No more salt was added, and a lot of soup and cabbage were added. After cooking, it was still fine. Okay, not so panicky.

After the salted egg yolk workshop was started, even the salted white noodles were reused, and a lot of salted white noodles were left. Pomegranate wanted to dump it behind Song's back, but Song was already on guard and told Jiang directly The two of them agreed that the salted white noodles they had replaced must be given to her, but they could not be dumped.

Mrs. Jiang didn't know there was salt in it. When she heard that the pomegranate was about to throw away the good white noodles, she hurriedly agreed with Mrs. Song. She must have watched the pomegranate to prevent her from dumping it.

Pomegranate had no choice but to understand, so she went with her. She just had to tell her mother that when making pimple soup with the salted white flour, she must add more water and vegetable leaves. Just cook it as a pot of soup. Use more vegetables to make the pimple soup. Not too much.

It is a scientific statement that nitrite causes cancer, but in their previous life, they ate a lot of carcinogenic things in their hometown, such as bacon, kimchi jars, home-dried salted vegetables, etc., and they did not all get cancer. of.

Even if you tell them that they will get cancer if you eat it, it won't work if you don't let them eat it since they have been used to eating these things since they were young.

Just say that she has breast milk and likes to fry diced pickled radish with rice even if she doesn't eat meat. If she is not allowed to eat it, wouldn't it make her feel uncomfortable all over.

——The construction of the new workshop is completely based on the drawings given by Shiliu. It is not as troublesome and detailed as building a house. It is enough to build each house one by one in its proper position. The three bricklayers also see this kind of house. I was stunned. After all, after so many years of building houses for people, everyone’s brick and tile houses were neatly built with main rooms and side rooms, but this one was different.

The one-acre homestead is divided into three sections. To the east is the food workshop, which has an area of ​​six rooms. Four rooms are connected into one large workshop, and the other two are partitioned into another workshop. For the production of meat floss, it is moved to the cooling and packaging area.

To the west is the carpentry workshop. The same area of ​​four houses is opened up into a large room for the woodworking production workshop, and two small rooms are added as the carving room.

In the middle are three warehouses, the area of ​​which is nearly half smaller. One is used as a salted egg yolk production workshop, one is used as a warehouse for finished food products, and the other is used as a warehouse for wooden boxes.

The first thing to start building was the food workshop. In a few days, the large workshop was built and the workshop was about to be completed.

The sixth uncle of the clan would build the earthen stove. Li Jihe invited him early in the morning and brought his children and grandchildren over to build the stove.

The layout of the pomegranates on the stove in the large workshop was also drawn up, and I even had a special sketch with my sixth uncle.

According to her drawings, there are ten stoves in total. On the east wall, there are six stoves in a row. Across the north wall, there are four stoves. Six stoves are dedicated to frying pork floss, and four stoves are dedicated to cooking. Meat.

In the remaining space, a long desk will be placed as a workbench for pounding lean meat and shredding meat.

In the room behind a partition, a long desk is also placed, which is used to dry the fried pork floss. The end is connected to a table for weighing and packaging.

In order to rush for time, Shiliu specially invited the father and son from the next village who built earthen stoves, plus the six uncles, sons and grandsons. It took seven people three days to build all ten stoves. .

Shiliu sent goods to Luoshui City and brought back ten iron pots. The ten stoves were officially put into use.

The six-kou stove-fried pork floss requires at least twelve people, so Pomegranate asked Patriarch Li to watch and recruit a few women.

In this way, two women are responsible for the fire of the ten stoves, six women are responsible for pounding the meat and tearing the shredded meat, and twelve women take turns. Two women are responsible for frying the pork floss in one pot, and four women are responsible for drying the pork floss. After repackaging, there were twenty-four women in total.

In the past two days, the warehouse in the middle has been built, and the salted egg yolk workshop has also been moved here. The production mode remains unchanged, but Pomegranate has added another person to help, and this person is Li Jixiao's daughter-in-law Yu.

Among the ten people recruited this time, there are also the third aunt Huang, Li Rongbai's daughter-in-law Wan, Li Jizhong's second daughter-in-law Xiang, several aunts from the third grandpa Li Xinguang's room, including the Rongzhen family, the granddaughter-in-law of the patriarch Li. of.

Pretty much the same, one of their grandfather's three-room residents all picked people to come into the workshop.
