The full-level master chef made a big spoon in the 80s

Chapter 16 Claypot Rice

Xu Nan thought for a moment, then soaked the rice and put it aside for later use.

Then he opened the cupboard and found a pile of condiments, planning to start with the sauce.

She tried hard to recall what seasonings were used in those videos when she watched the videos before.

First of all, there must be soy sauce and sugar, and then there are light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and sesame oil. After thinking about it, I took out a bottle of sesame oil.

Xu Nan first took out a bowl from the cupboard, poured these seasonings into the bowl one by one, and stirred them evenly.

Then I took the chopsticks and dipped it, put it in my mouth and tasted it, it was almost the same taste.

She looked at the soaked rice and saw that the rice hadn't been soaked yet, so she started to process the sausage and bacon first.

The bacon is vacuum-packed. She tore open the package first, took out the bacon from inside, and then poked a chopstick into the bacon, so that it would be more convenient to roast it over a fire later, so as not to burn her hands.

Then turn on the gas stove and turn to low heat, pick up one end of the chopsticks, hold the bacon over the flames and start roasting, so that the skin of the meat can be roasted softer and the hair on the pig skin can be removed.

After roasting the skin until bubbles appeared, Xu Nan turned off the gas stove, took out a basin from the cabinet, put the roasted bacon into the basin, took out the kettle and poured hot water into the basin, Soak for a while.

Then began to cut the sausage, Xu Nan cut the sausage into even thin slices and put it aside, because it was just an experiment to see if it could be done successfully, so Xu Nan only prepared the amount for two people.

At this time, the bacon was soaked, Xu Nan took out an iron rag, and began to scrub vigorously on the surface of the bacon to remove the dust and dirt on it.

Then boil another pot of boiling water. After the water boils, put the processed bacon into the pot and start cooking. When it can be poked into the meat with chopsticks lightly, take the meat out and let it cool before slicing.

At this time the rice was soaked, Xu Nan took out a casserole from the cupboard, cleaned the pot and put it on the stove, unscrewed the gas, and poured a little oil into it after the pot was heated.

Then use a rag to pad it, lift the pot, and shake the oil inside.

Then take the rice out of the water and put it into the casserole, pour an appropriate amount of water into the casserole, and the water should cover the rice by one centimeter.

Turn the gas stove to medium heat and simmer for 8 minutes, then lift the lid of the pot, spread the processed sausage and bacon inside, cover the pot, and pour a circle of oil on the pot cover, it is said that there will be more rice crackers.

After 2 minutes, Xu Nan carefully lifted the lid of the pot, cracked two eggs into it, put the green vegetables picked from the space, covered the pot and simmered on low heat for 10 minutes, then poured the adjusted Claypot rice juice, a delicious claypot rice is out of the pot.

Xu Nan glanced at the time, and it was almost 10:30, so she went back to the bedroom and changed.

Then prepare to go to the photo studio at the market to take a picture of the cooked claypot rice. After all, the competition requires submission of food photos.

The market is actually not far from the family courtyard. It takes about 10 minutes to walk, so Xu Nan didn't go out by bicycle.

She took the casserole and walked to the market.

In the gazebo in the courtyard on the road, several middle-aged women sat chatting there.

Xu Nan saw someone staring at the pot in her hand and pointing there, not knowing what to say there, Xu Nan ignored it.

...

It was very lively in the gazebo.

There are quite a few people sitting inside, and they are usually bored, so they like to sit together and chat about household affairs.

Among them, Zhao Xiaohong was inside.

If Xu Nan was here, she would definitely recognize that this woman was the one who asked Aunt Li who she was that day.

This is not the matter of Feng Tian's bag yesterday, which has been widely spread in the family courtyard, and everyone is talking about it here, but this time Feng Tian has lost his honor.

"Hey, sister Zhao, you said that Feng Tian's mother knew about this and she couldn't be furious. She usually flaunts everything. If she doesn't know, she would think her family is rich!"

"The rich girl carried a fake bag, and his man told her about it in public. It's really ridiculous."

"It's not a big deal. These two women usually have their nostrils turned upside down. How could this happen."

"Thanks to the daughter-in-law of Dr. Lu's family, otherwise how could we watch this excitement, she..."

Zhao Xiaohong was about to tell Xu Nan what to do, but she saw Xu Nan passing by them, holding a casserole in his hand, not knowing what to do.

I don't know what delicious food is in the pot, she asked about the fragrance from such a distance.

Seeing this, Zhao Xiaohong seemed to have found a new topic, and quickly pushed the middle-aged woman aside: "Hey, look, isn't that the guy from the Lu family? Why do you bring a pot when you go out? I've heard of it all over here." Arriving at the scent."

The topic of a group of people turned from Feng Tian to Xu Nan in an instant.

"I've heard that this daughter-in-law of the Lu family is the prodigal. I heard from Feng Tian's mother that her family's Feng Tian went to the Lu family as a guest. Guess how to recruit her?"

"What's the matter, tell me quickly, it's really uncomfortable to stop listening halfway."

Seeing that everyone's eyes were on her, Zhao Xiaohong was curiously expecting her to continue talking, and instantly straightened her back, feeling extremely proud.

The tone involuntarily magnified: "Guess what to do, Aunt Feng said that there are only two people in her family, and she cooks four dishes!"

This middle-aged women's gossip squad immediately exploded.

"Four dishes! This is too extravagant. How much does Dr. Lu have to earn a month to be able to eat for his wife! This is too prodigal."

"I have lived to be in my forties. Except for Chinese New Year, my family has never cooked four dishes for one meal."

"I've heard that Feng Tian said yesterday that Xu Nan went to collect the scraps. Do you think she is too prodigal, and she is the one who collects the scraps because she spent all of Dr. Lu's salary?"

"Don't mention it, my house is close to hers, and when it's meal time, the smell of her yard is wafting, don't mention how much you can eat!"

After speaking, several middle-aged women looked at each other, shook their heads together, and finally came to a conclusion:
"This Dr. Lu's daughter-in-law is lazy, greedy and prodigal!"

...

Here Xu Nan didn't know what she had become in the mouths of those neighbors.

When she arrived at the photo studio, she was holding a pot of claypot rice in her arms. The clerk saw her walking in and greeted her warmly:

"Ma'am, do you want to take a picture?"

Xu Nan nodded after listening.

The clerk welcomed her into the room and sat down on the chair, and began to introduce her:
"Would you like to take a passport photo or an artistic photo?"

"Our family provides free makeup and styling. They are all professional makeup artists and photographers, and we guarantee that you will be satisfied with the results."

"There are still clothes available over there, but there is a fee. What do you think you want to shoot?"

After listening to the clerk's introduction, Xu Nan thought for a while and asked, "Can your family take color photos?"

"Of course I can. Among other things, our family's color photos are the first in our Yunbei County. Other photo studios don't have our technology."

Xu Nan nodded after hearing this: "That's fine, I'll take the photo."

The clerk was overjoyed when he heard this, and came to do business, and hurriedly greeted the makeup artist opposite.

Seeing this, the makeup artist hurried over: "Ma'am, let me do your makeup, what do you need for styling?"

"Makeup? No need, as for the request...?"

Xu Nan looked down at the casserole in his hand, handed it to the clerk and said:
"Just make it look delicious."
