Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 583 Chapter 580 Two: Ginseng in Water
Song Qiu looked at the small half bucket of loach, almost grinning to the ear.

Ah Ling looked at it and swallowed, "Sister Ah Qiu, which one is better, this or that snail?"

Song Qiu smiled proudly, "There is a saying called 'turtledove in the sky, loach in the ground', have you heard of it? This loach can be called 'ginseng in the water', which one do you think is tastier?"

Ah Ling has never heard this sentence, and he doesn't know why this slippery loach is ginseng, and it doesn't look like it at all.

But it doesn't prevent her from showing her desire to eat food. The things Aqiu's sister said are good, they must be delicious!
"Sister Aqiu~"

The eager-eyed Ah Ling looked like a little hamster. Song Qiu looked amused and waved his hand, "Today, my sister will make you a loach feast and ask you to taste the taste of this ginseng! Please eat it Endless aftertaste!"

Ah Ling's eyes lit up, his hands clapped, and he stuck it up like a dog's leg, "What do you want me to do? Light the fire or wash the vegetables? My sister just orders, Ah Ling dare not refuse!"

"Hahaha... don't burn the fire or wash the vegetables, let's kill the loach first!"

Song Qiu rolled up his sleeves, brought scissors, a sieve and a wooden basin, and put them under the big tree by the well, ready to start processing the loach.

Ah Ling squatted beside him, and said, "Sister Ah Qiu, let me see how you killed it first?"

"Well, look at it." Song Qiu responded, and poured all the loach in the wooden barrel into the sieve, so as to drain the water from the loach.

Then I caught a loach, grabbed its head, pressed it against the slate, clasped it firmly with my thumb and forefinger, and then used scissors to split the loach's belly from top to bottom. The action was done in one go, which is simple to say.

Ah Ling looked it over and thought it was easy, so he grabbed a loach with his hands, and as soon as he pressed it on the stone slab, the loach slid to the bottom of the slab without slipping.

"It's too slippery!"

"You grab its head and hold it down with a little force." Song Qiu said, the loach he caught broke its stomach and threw it into a wooden basin beside it.

Ah Ling listened, and caught the loach again. This time he held it firmly, and finally succeeded in killing it.

Come and go, a few more, and you will get started slowly.

There were no guests in the inn at the moment, Ma Liang helped Jiang's work in the tea shed outside, and there were passers-by resting one after another in the tea shed, Meng Chaoqun came in and saw them killing loaches, so he came to help.

Seeing that it was getting late, Song Qiu slowly killed the loaches. He didn't want to eat lunch, so he taught Meng Chaoqun to continue killing the loaches.

Dispose of the loach that came out of the head first, dig out the internal organs, and clean it.

After getting out a big bowl, Song Qiu took it to the kitchen first, and let Mrs. Liu follow in to help light the fire.

For the first dish, Song Qiu planned to make loach stewed tofu.

Wash the loach and drain the water.

A large piece of tofu left at noon is cut into pieces for later use.

There is a residual fire on the stove, and it burns quickly at this moment, and the pot is clean, put lard to burn, put ginger slices and loach together, and after the loach is fried until both sides are golden, add five bowls of water.

Put a little salt and boil over high heat until the soup turns white, then continue to simmer for two quarters of an hour with medium and low heat.

After that, add tofu cubes, and then simmer for a quarter of an hour.

Song Qiu didn't use a lot of ingredients, just simple ginger slices and salt to stew the original flavor of the loach, and put a little bit of sugar in the pot to make the soup fresh.

There are too many seasonings, but the original taste is suppressed.

Mrs. Liu was burning the fire, and smelling the fragrance wafting from the pot, she inhaled and inhaled again and again.

She looked up at Song Qiu who went to the desk to cut side dishes again, "Boss, is this how the loach was made?"

She looked at it, and there were not many seasonings, just ginger and salt, which are available in every family in their village.

Tofu is not expensive, and they can afford it.

Loach is meat anyway, so don’t say it if you don’t know how to make it. It doesn’t look like it needs any seasoning. They seem to be able to get it and eat it, and it’s also a greedy mouth for the children.

Song Qiu glanced at her expression, felt what she meant, and smiled, "This stewed tofu with loach is as simple as that. This soup is good for children and the elderly! If you have For a woman who is pregnant with a baby, it is better to feed her this! Not only is it nutritious, it is also good for the fetus!"

Mrs. Liu listened, her eyes lit up, and she didn't talk about children and old people. The most important thing is the latter one. If you are pregnant, eat well. Her eldest daughter married Kuizi from the same village, and now she is just three months pregnant. Woolen cloth.

These days, it is not easy for women to conceive and give birth. There is nothing good in the house to make up for the body. Even if they are pregnant, they still eat like everyone else. Only those who love their daughter-in-law will do.

She licked her lips, and said hesitantly, "Boss, can I go back and make this stewed tofu with loach? Let me tell you the truth, my eldest daughter is pregnant, and I heard that this is good to eat, so I want to make it up for her." repair."

"Boss, don't worry, I promise that I will only cook and eat myself, and I will never tell others!"

She has been working in the kitchen for half a month. She sees the evening from morning to night, and the boss does not avoid her when cooking. Even if she watches, she can see the same.

That is to say, those seasonings, many of which she has never seen before, and she can't do well even if she is asked to make them.

And she didn't expect to steal the teacher.

She didn't want to lose such a good job because of this,
The master treats them well, if she steals the master's art, it will be a thunderbolt.

But looking at this loach today, the method is simple, she thinks she can do it after seeing it, and thinking about the daughter who is pregnant, she can't help but ask with a shy face.

After asking, she became a little nervous again, what if the boss thinks that she has failed her duty and fires her?
Busily added another sentence: "It's okay if it doesn't work, I'm just asking."

If the boss really doesn't allow it, then she will definitely not do it when she goes back.

Song Qiu listened, and was free for a long time. After all the peppers in his hand were cut, Mrs. Liu felt anxious, so she said: "This dish is simple, and you can make it after reading it. If you want to do it, do it, it happens that your village can catch this loach, tofu is also easy to buy, if you can really make it, every family can have a delicious dish to eat, this loach is better than eating meat for health!"

But only for this dish.

Mrs. Liu is not a fool, she understands that, after watching it for half a month, she felt that she could only make this dish, and she didn't have the seasonings for the rest, and she might not be able to make that taste. .

He nodded again and again and said: "My boss, don't worry, this dish will never spread out of our village."

Song Qiu smiled, put the chopped peppers in a bowl, and then came over and lifted the lid of the pot. The milky white soup exuded an extremely fragrant smell, and just smelling it made his mouth water.

"This loach stew is still milky! It's even better after giving birth to a baby!"

Listening, Mrs. Liu looked at the milk-like soup in the pot with her head, and exclaimed how amazing it was.

"I looked at the water I added, how can this make a milk-like soup? It's really weird!"

"Soup like milk, can you really get milk after drinking it? That's good. When I gave birth to my little treasure, I didn't get milk. As a result, he didn't have any milk for three months. He only drank rice soup. How old is he now? You look so thin, if I met you at that time, my boss, I can make this loach soup and drink it, and I can have milk."
