delicious farm girl

Chapter 237 Not For Sale

Master Luo San said he wanted to stay at Su Ran's house, so he really had the cheek to stay.

Because of his business, he often has to run around. He has slept on a high bed with soft pillows, and he can still stay in the earthen kiln of the ruined temple.Now living in Su Ran's house, he also got used to it very quickly.

Especially when he tasted the food at Su Ran's house at night, he nodded with satisfaction: "I understand why the young master loves to run to you. And those two boys, everyone said they were thrown to the countryside. Hard times, I might cry secretly, I wish I could go back to the provincial capital soon! As a result, when I asked the six boys to go back today, I took them back with me. But these two boys refused, and secretly came to beg me, Said that I want to stay here and continue to help you raise rabbits! Thinking about it now, they must have eaten very well at your house in the past three days, and both of them have gained weight!"

As he said that, he had already taken the initiative to add vegetables to his bowl.

It's mid-April now, and green lotus leaves have already grown in the wild river in front of Su Ran's house this year.The leaves are small and tender, dotted in the pond, very beautiful.

But at this time, the most attractive thing is the bottom of the pond.

Today there were guests at home, so Brother Quan took Anger and rolled up his trouser legs. The two brothers jumped into the river and pulled lotus root belts in the mud.

Brother Zhuang is getting bigger and bigger, and now his temper is getting wilder.Watching the two uncles go down the river, he also rolled up his trousers and thought about going down, but An Geer told him to stay on the bank calmly.The little guy was very unwilling, but Brother Quan threatened him with Li Er, the little guy was still afraid of his father, so he didn't dare to mess around anymore, so he obediently stood on the shore.However, when he saw that his uncle got the lotus root belt, he clapped his hands happily and counted cheerfully in his small mouth: "One, two, three..."

About half an hour later, my brother smoked forty or fifty, two handfuls.Brother Quan grabbed a few, washed them in the river, and stuffed one into Brother Zhuang's mouth.

The current lotus root has just grown out, it is crisp and tender, and after washing it, there are still a few crystal clear drops of water rolling on it.After one bite, the lotus root belt snapped off, and a sweet taste spread in the mouth, it was even more delicious than the wild fruit on the mountain.Brother Zhuang quickly grabbed his own, and began to eat it in big mouthfuls.It didn't take long for him to eat one of them, and he immediately looked at his uncles anxiously.

Brother Quan, Brother An, how could he bear to see him like this?The two brothers quickly took out another one and handed it to him. The three uncles and nephews walked home while eating the fresh and tender lotus root belt.By the time they got home, each of them had wiped out two or three of them!
This season is the time to eat this.The three of them went into the kitchen and handed things to Su Ran, and Su Ran couldn't help but steal one.The lotus root belt itself is fresh, tender and crispy, and there is no need for excessive processing. Just fry it with a small amount of oil, add some vinegar, and finally sprinkle a handful of chives, and a plate of fresh and tender lotus root belt will be out of the pan up.

In addition to the lotus root belt, the brothers Quan and Brother also caught two crucian carp in the pond.Su Ran fried the fish until both sides were golden brown and crispy, with only a little salt sprinkled on both sides, the fish meat was tender and fragrant.

Coupled with some ready-made bacon and rabbit meat sauce at home, the table is very rich.

These are either long preparations or fresh from the river, each with its own unique flavour.Master Luo San was very happy to eat, and he was full by accident.

After eating too much, he took a walk in the large yard of Su Ran's house to digest food, and at the same time observed the situation of Su Ran's house.He was also talking to Mr. Yuan: "Today I tasted Mrs. Li's craftsmanship, and I am convinced! Although it is just a common meal, it may be a real chef who can make such a delicious meal! I am now I really want to see the dried rabbit meat she made with her own hands!"

Then on the second day, he didn't even have time to take care of the rabbit fur, so he started urging Su Ran to make jerky.

Su Ran did as he wished.

Now that the family conditions are better, the family's requirements for appetite are of course much higher than before.Mrs. Huang stopped him a few times to see if she couldn't stop her, so she turned a blind eye to Su Ran's random buying of seasonings and so on, and didn't care much about it.Therefore, all kinds of seasonings in the kitchen are very complete.

Su Ran cut the newly peeled rabbit meat into small pieces, soaked it in clean water for about an hour, and changed the water a few times to remove the blood.After the blood water is almost clean, take out the rabbit meat, put it into the pot, add water, green onion, ginger, salt, and then pour some wine, and bring it to a boil.After the water is boiled on high heat, turn to low heat and continue to simmer for half an hour.

Sister Liu looked at the fire over there, and Su Ran turned around to get peanuts, sesame seeds, and seasonings such as fragrant leaves, dried hawthorn, cloves, peppercorns, etc. at home, crushed these things, mixed them together, and then mixed them with five spices pink.

When the seasoning is mixed well, the rabbit meat in the pot is almost stewed.Su Ran fished out the rabbit meat and drained the water.Then clean the pot, heat the oil, pour in the rabbit meat, and stir fry constantly.

After less than a quarter of an hour, almost all the moisture in the rabbit meat was collected.Then put out the rabbit meat, pour oil into the pot, add sugar, stir-fry the sugar over low heat, then pour in the rabbit meat, and continue to stir-fry.After a while, the sugar juice was evenly wrapped on every piece of meat.The aroma of meat and the sweetness of rock sugar are intertwined, overflowing from the pot.

Finally, Su Ran poured the beaten spices into the pot and continued to stir-fry for a while. The flavor of the spices quickly soaked into the meat, making the meat more fragrant.There is also the sweet smell of rock sugar, which has been lingering in the kitchen, which makes people salivate uncontrollably.

After the spices were all attached to the meat and they were almost absorbed, Su Ran asked Sister Liu to stop the fire.After continuing to stir fry in the pot for a while, she took all the meat pieces out of the pot and served them.

"Try it all!"

Turning around, she picked up the bowl.

Mr. Yuan has always been the most loyal follower of Su Ran's cooking skills.Knowing that Su Ran was going to make jerky today, he had already been waiting outside the kitchen, swallowing for a long time just by the smell.After the jerky was finally ready, he rushed in, grabbed a piece and put it in his mouth.

"Well...it's delicious! It has the aroma of spices, but it doesn't cover the taste of meat, and there is a little sweetness. The combination of several flavors is just right, not too much, and not bad, sister-in-law His cooking skills are really getting better and better!" After eating one piece, Mr. Yuan praised loudly, and continued to grab another piece.

Brother Quan and Brother An heard this, and the two brothers rushed to grab meat to eat.

When Brother Zhuang saw him, he hurriedly took Huang's hand too, blinking his eyes, not to mention how pitiful he was.

"Okay, grandma will get it for you now! How can I not give it to my little grandson to eat such a good thing?" Huang patted his little head lovingly, then grabbed a small handful of jerky and handed it to him. he.

Brother Zhuang immediately grabbed one and fed it into Huang's mouth. "Grandma eats first!"

Huang shi laughed so hard that his eyes narrowed.

When master Luo San saw this, hope appeared in his eyes.

"Is it really so delicious? Then I really want to taste it." He whispered, and also stepped forward to grab a piece and threw it into his mouth.

"Well, it's really good!" He gave a thumbs up to Mr. Yuan when the dried meat was in his mouth, "It's not too much, and it's not bad at all. The flavors of fragrance, sweetness, crispness, and crisp are all well matched. Mr. Yuan, you really have an extraordinary literary talent!"

"It's not that I have extraordinary literary talents, but that my sister-in-law is so good at cooking. I can hardly think of words to praise her cooking skills now!" Mr. Yuan said cheerfully.

Master Luo San ate one piece, and unknowingly stretched out his hand to grab another piece.

His movements were done in one go, and when the jerky was put into his mouth, he was shocked.Immediately he nodded: "You are right. There is such a person in my family who can eat so much, I would praise her in different ways every day! Just say that now this jerky, I go to the rich man's house in the capital to eat it It’s almost the same taste. If your jerky is sold in restaurants, how many people will rush to buy it!”

As he spoke, he looked at Su Ran with a smile. "Sister-in-law Li, I like this jerky. Please make a price, and I will buy it too!"

He is very proud now - if he hadn't insisted on staying to taste the jerky she made, he would have missed such a delicacy!

As early as when the jerky was in his mouth, he couldn't help thinking about it—this jerky is not labor-intensive to make, but it needs a lot of spices, sugar, etc., and the requirements for craftsmanship are very strict.As for the bowl made by Su Ran, as long as the packaging is changed, it will definitely be very high-grade.Whether it is placed in a teahouse or restaurant as an appetizer for literati and elegant guests, or taken out as a gift for others, it is very suitable.

Just thinking about it this way, there are so many business opportunities here!

However, as soon as he spoke, Su Ran said coolly: "Not for sale."
