Reborn Farmhouse: Planting Fields, Flirting with People

Chapter 250 Killing the New Year Pig (2)

There was a burst of burnt aroma in the yard, and Li Mingyue swallowed unkindly.

She carried Li Mingqing into the kitchen. Mrs. Liu was busy making fried crispy meat, and the whole kitchen was filled with the smell of meat.

Sniffing hard, Li Mingyue couldn't help but sigh, "Everywhere you go, there is a smell of meat. This is the Chinese New Year."

Li Mingqing in her arms also said, "Fatty, fleshy."

"Little greedy cat."

Li Mingyue touched a small piece of fried crispy yellow meat, and handed it to Li Mingqing to hold and chew.

"Mom, what are you going to do with that pig's head?"

Mrs. Liu replied casually: "The pig's head is not edible right now. It needs to be used as an offering. It will not be eaten until February [-], the day when the dragon raises its head. Why do you think of asking this? The pig's head is not delicious."

Thinking of the smell of braised pork head meat, Li Mingyue couldn't help drooling, hey... still have to wait for a month.

Looking up and seeing her look of lovelessness, Liu's heart softened, she wiped her hands and said: "Okay, okay, steam one if you want to eat, anyway, our family will kill two pigs this year and keep a pig's head as an offering." That's it."

After Liu finished speaking, she handed the spatula to Wang and asked her to take care of it, while she turned around and left the kitchen.After a while, he came back with a roasted pig's head.

Li Mingyue took the pig's head with one hand, and stuffed Ming Qing into Liu's arms with the other.

"Mom, I'll make you a fresh one today. I want the pig's trotters and pig's tail. I'll also cut up ten catties of pork belly. Let's add another dish tonight."

Mrs. Zhu, who was sitting in front of the stove and lighting the fire, said with a smile, "Yo, that's a good relationship, let's wait and try something new."

The pots and stoves in the kitchen were not empty, so Li Mingyue used the pots and stoves in the workshop, which happened to be quiet too.

Stewed pork head meat is actually very simple. Wash the pig head, trotters, pork belly, and pig tail, cut into small pieces and soak in cold water to remove blood.Then blanch in a pot, add white vinegar, pepper, star anise, and sliced ​​ginger to remove the fishy smell.

Then set up another pot and cook a pot of old soup with pork bones, then add pepper, star anise, rock sugar, cinnamon, tangerine peel, nutmeg, bay leaves, green onion, ginger, garlic, red pepper, salt and other seasonings to make it Make a marinated soup, then pour in the blanched pig's head, trotters, etc., and stew it slowly over low heat.

Not long after, a strong stewed fragrance drifted to the front yard.

While washing the vegetables, Mrs. Wang jokingly said, "Tsk tsk, Yue'er eats fresh food. It tastes delicious just by smelling it. I need to eat more chopsticks at night."

Zhu Shi also sighed: "It is said that people are more angry than angry people. If my Jiaojiao can be half as capable as Yueer, I will burn incense."

Who doesn't like others to praise their daughters, Liu's face bloomed with a smile, but he still said modestly: "Don't say that, Jiaojiao and Huihui are both good."

Aunt Zhou couldn't help interjecting, "By the way, Wenhui and Wenjiao haven't talked about kissing yet, have they?"

Both Wang Shi and Zhu Shi were stunned for a moment, and then turned their heads to look at Liu Shi... Although they were scolded by their mother-in-law last time, they were still a little unwilling.

Mrs. Liu just pretended not to understand, and said with a smile: "Not yet, but the age is about the same. If you have a suitable one, you can also help introduce it."

"Okay, I'll keep an eye on it for you." Aunt Zhou stepped in without knowing it, and readily agreed.

This year is the first year for their family to kill pigs, and the Liu family has tried their best to make it a good one. Others' pig rice has at most eight dishes, but Li's family has made a total of twelve dishes this time, including meat dishes, vegetarian dishes, Hot dishes and cold dishes are all ready. Fortunately, there are many people helping, otherwise it would be too busy.
