Wangfu small peasant girl

Chapter 1192

He asked Yongfu to buy spices, and then asked him to buy some pig intestines, pig ears and trotters, as well as some stick bones and beef.

Since we are going to make stewed meat, there are so many people in the family, so there is no shortage of things. These things are delicious when stewed, especially the stewed pig's trotters, which are soft and glutinous, and taste great.

This time is not as convenient as in the previous life, there are no ready-made chicken legs and chicken wings, they are all whole.

But the quality of the meat is better, and the taste will be better than in the previous life.

Xu Ruyue started to work after buying the stuff. First, she had to prepare the marinade, put thick oil in the pot, and then add rock sugar to stir-fry. This is called fried sugar color.

The purpose of this step is to color the lo-mei. The color of the lo-mei is bright and it looks appetizing.

When the sugar is fried, you need to add a little water, then add the spices and cook for a while. The spices are mainly peppercorns, kaempferia, gardenia, star anise and cinnamon.

When these things are added and boiled, it smells a bit like traditional Chinese medicine. Then add soy sauce and salt, more salt should be added, after all, a lot of meat will be added in a while, and it must have a taste.

When the taste is cooked, continue to add water to it, and this is the marinade.

Xu Ruyue put the lid on the pot, "Continue to burn the fire, and the pot next to it is also on, and blanch the meat twice."

"Hey." Xiaoying hurried to do it, and she remembered all the steps that Xu Ruyue did.

With two ducks and two chickens, Xu Ruyue only had the neck and limbs, and used the rest for cooking.

The pig's trotters and stick bones are the first to go into the pot. It takes at least an hour to marinate for this, and half an hour is enough for the others.

When the pig's trotters were almost done, I put the rest of the meat into the marinade. Xu Ruyue tasted the saltiness, and then covered the pot, "Just marinate it for half an hour."

"Yeah." Xiaoying nodded and wrote it down in her mind.

When the time came, Xu Ruyue brought a large Shau Kei, put it in another pot, and used chopsticks and spoons to pick up the contents of the marinade and let it dry.

The color of the marinated meat is bright, and it looks very appetizing. Xiaoying couldn't help swallowing, "It's so delicious."

"Of course." Xu Ruyue chuckled, and took out all the contents of the pot. There was a whole big shaukei, which could add up to more than ten catties of meat.

Don't think it's quite a lot, but there are quite a few people in the family. At this time, people eat meat very much. In fact, they can eat it all in one day.

"This one needs to be dried. When it is warm, slice the pig's ear and beef, and cut the pig's trotter a little bit. The rest is the same, just take it and eat it."

Xu Ruyue also marinated two catties of pork belly, "Put this alone and cut it after it cools down. Is there red pepper in the ground? Pick it up and fry this stewed pork, it's very delicious."

Xiaoying quickly wrote it down, these are all new skills.

The vegetable plot at home is in the old house, and the second part of the plot has been fully utilized, and the vegetables grow very well.

After owning the farm, Xu Ruyue left some of the fringes and asked people to grow vegetables on the farm. Now the vegetables are coming out, and people send them to the house every day, but the vegetable fields at the old house are not discarded. Some peppers and various seasonings.

"By the way, yesterday I said that I would send some tea over there. I have hawthorn slices and lemon slices at home. I used them to boil water and sent them in the afternoon. I put rock sugar in it, otherwise it would be so sour that I couldn't drink it."

"Xiangyun is pregnant, so she should drink less water boiled with hawthorn, so I will make her a pot of lemon tea alone, without adding tea leaves, just add honey and jasmine."

"I asked Xiaorou to go to Doctor Zhang to buy some heat-clearing and heat-relieving medicinal materials. I will use that to boil water tomorrow. I will exchange these few kinds of tea. If I have time, I can also make some simple snacks and send them together. It's not too good .”

If you send some exquisite snacks, can you still work with peace of mind?

Xiaoying has a good memory, Xu Ruyue said it once and she memorized everything, she smiled and blessed her body, "Madam, don't worry, this servant knows."

At this end they are making lo mei in the kitchen, but the smell wafts far away, and the villagers passing by can't help but look in.

"Hey, it's early in the morning, what are you cooking in Ming Mansion? It's so delicious, I feel hungry."

"Me too, why does it smell so good, but it's not easy to go in, or else I really want to see it."

Xu Ruyue didn't know it at all, "Don't throw away these stewed ingredients, and stew them tomorrow. The longer the stewed ingredients are, the better they taste, but it's a pity that they can't be kept in summer."

In her previous life, she always had a pot of marinated ingredients in her refrigerator. Every time she marinated the meat, she boiled the marinated ingredients and poured them into the basin, and put them in the freezer when they cooled.

The next time you want to eat it, take out the stewed pork. This kind of old stew tastes the best. Although it is a little unhealthy, how can there be health in the world of foodies?

But there is no refrigerator at this time, so I have no choice but to let it go. I can marinate it again tomorrow, so I guess it will have to be dumped.

"If it's good today, I'll make some more tomorrow. You can also marinate some eggs and snow peas, and potatoes and lotus root slices are also fine. You can figure it out by yourself tomorrow."

Xiaoying smiled and said, "Hey, Ma'am is waiting to eat ready-made ones."

The lo mei was served at noon, and everyone was full of praise. Tomorrow, this half-sized boy ate a lot and was full.

"It's so delicious. I want to save some for Pingwu. I will eat it when Pingwu comes to see me for homework in the afternoon. Is there any more?"

Xu Pingqiu was happy to see that he cared so much about Pingwu tomorrow, that was her younger brother.

Xiaoying came over with just fried braised pork and fried red peppers, and said with a smile, "Young master, there are still some in the kitchen. Madam specially asked to leave some for Master Pingwu."

Tomorrow he laughed, "Sister-in-law is still thoughtful."

In the afternoon, Xiaoying made some baked steamed buns. Xu Ruyue also taught her to bake the steamed buns until they were golden and crispy.

She got some tea again, but she couldn't take it by herself, so she asked Dalin to deliver it with her.

"Everyone, my wife has sent the servants to bring refreshments, let's eat some before making."

Song said with a smile, "This is Yue'er's wish, let's try it quickly."

The peasant households actually seldom eat steamed buns, and white noodles are quite expensive.

Xiaoying made the steamed buns so delicious, as well as the sweet and sour tea, which everyone has never tasted before, and they are full of praise.

Today is also an eye-opener. I don’t know how to make this sweet and sour water, but it’s really delicious.

After eating and drinking tea, everyone was more motivated to work.

The next day Xiaoying marinated the meat again and added some vegetarian dishes, which were more than the previous day.

I ate it the first day, so I won’t be able to eat so much today, or I’d get tired of it.

So Xu Ruyue asked people to send some to a few acquaintances, so that everyone could taste the new taste.

At this time, there are also lo mei for sale, but because some spices with the same origin as medicine and food have not been discovered, the lo mei on the market must not be as good as hers, so this is indeed a rare item.
