Food: Random stalls, customers chase me all over the country

Chapter 72 - The Fragrant Braised Pork Knuckle

"Hello, the pork elbow you ordered has been delivered."

Wang Fan was still studying the recipe when a voice rang out from outside the RV.

When I opened the car door, I saw a young man in his twenties waiting outside on an electric tricycle.

There was also a large plastic bag in the bed of the electric tricycle, which contained cleaned pig elbows.

Wang Fan thanked him and picked up the plastic bag, carrying it to the RV without blushing or breathing hard.

The young man gave a thumbs up and praised: "Big brother, you have great strength. These elbows weigh over 100 pounds."

Wang Fan chuckled: "It's all learned through hard work."

The young man said, "Please weigh it. If there is no problem, I will go back first."

Wang Fan waved his hand: "No need, the feel is just fine."

The young man took out a notebook and handed it to Wang Fan. Wang Fan wrote his name on the confirmation form and gave it back to the young man. Then the young man rode away on his electric tricycle.

Wang Fan returned to the car and carried the more than 100-pound pork elbow to the kitchen with one hand.

I took out the elbows one by one and counted them. There were 40 in total, and each one weighed about 2.5 kilograms.

I picked up a pork elbow and looked at it carefully. It was indeed cleaned very cleanly, without even a tiny pig hair.

And after spraying the fire, it should have been wiped with steel wool, and the entire pig's front elbow looks very clean.

Wang Fan washed each elbow again with clean water, and then put them into the braised meat pot that had just been turned on.

Put some cooking wine and star anise in the water and start blanching.

Blanching and skimming off the foam felt a bit like squeezing a pimple to Wang Fan. The more he skimmed off the foam, the less foam there was in the braised meat pot, and the clearer the water in the pot became.

Wang Fan poured water into the pot three times in a row until no new foam came out of the pot.

Wang Fan knew that the floating foam was actually blood, and if it was not cleaned out, it would have a fishy smell when cooking the pork elbow.

At this time, the guy who delivered other ingredients to Wang Fan also arrived. Wang Fan went out and brought in a big bag of onions, ginger, garlic, eggs, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce and other spices and seasonings.

The prices of these accessories are not low, not cheaper than those pork elbows at all.

The key to making braised meat is the braising liquid. After getting the spices, Wang Fan naturally has to make the braising liquid.

You can't hang up at this time, but Wang Fan feels that with his current strength, he can easily do it.

100 kilograms of meat were bought, Wang Fan prepared 115 kilograms of brine, and 3 kilograms of various spices.

This ratio can be called the golden ratio. If there is too much, the spices will be too strong and cover up the aroma of the meat. If there is too little, the flavor will not be good.

As the temperature of the brine rises, the aroma of the spices is released.

Wang Fan's ability to listen to the wind and identify the flavors worked again at this time. When the smell of the spices had just completely evaporated, he decisively put the pork front elbows one after another into the brine.

The biggest advantage of making braised meat is that there is nothing to do once the meat starts cooking, and Wang Fan finally has some time to slack off.

After buying a smartphone with more games, Wang Fan had no interest in playing them. Instead, he searched for various food-making videos with great interest. When he saw something particularly exciting, he would take out a small notebook to record it.

While Wang Fan was simmering the food over low heat, more and more stalls began to appear on both sides of the street.

Everyone looked at the new big guy curiously.

"When did an RV come here?"

"I don't know. I don't know what they sell because they don't have a brand."

"I have to say, this car is a real bargain. When I make enough money, I will definitely get one from him."

"Haha, this car is not expensive. I asked about Jiuling Hongguang before. It's only about 6 yuan, which is very suitable for us." Wang Fan heard the voice outside and couldn't help but look outside curiously.

I couldn't help but smile when I saw this. I didn't expect that this was a snack street. It was very appropriate to set up my braised meat stall here.

At this time, the stall owners all started their fires. The steam was particularly conspicuous in the low temperature environment, making this place look like a fairyland.

Wang Fan's nose twitched slightly.

A series of different aromas began to linger around the tip of my nose.

This is oil tea noodles, this is beef pie, oh wow this is amazing, it’s actually leek dumplings.

Is this supposed to be corn porridge? The corn tastes really good.

Oh, there is also a fried dough stick bun here. Different from the xiaolongbao he made before, Wang Fan estimated that this big bun is one-quarter the size of his face.

After Wang Fan smelled the fragrance of these foods, he not only knew what food the fragrance came from, but also could immediately smell the ingredients of these foods.

But they are all common ones, not any new secret recipes passed down from generation to generation.

Moreover, even if there was a secret recipe passed down from ancestors, Wang Fan had no interest in learning it. The recipes given by the system were enough for him.

Ma Weiliang sells fried dough sticks and fried leek boxes next to Wang Fan's RV.

The Ice and Snow World has become very popular recently, and he has earned a lot more money.

This is not because he has learned to cut corners, but because a large number of handsome men and beautiful women from the south suddenly flocked here.

Although everyone has a small appetite, there are so many people that if everyone buys a little, the food is basically sold out every day.

Ma Weiliang is very confident about what he sells.

After all, no matter how expensive the perfume is, it can’t compare to the leek box. As soon as the leek box is put into the oil pan, the little fragrance pops out, and no one can resist buying one to try it!

Today is another day of killing hooray hooray hooray...

Huh? What's that smell?
Ma Weiliang, who was feeling very happy, was suddenly stunned.

He felt a meaty aroma so strong that it seemed to be tangible, suddenly rushing into his nose.

The fragrance had a hint of mellow sweetness and a light herbal scent, which made him feel very comfortable and relaxed. He couldn't help but take a big breath.

Then he felt a burst of meaty aroma like a flood bursting through a dam, suddenly rushing towards him.

He swore that he had never smelled such an alluring fragrance in his life.

Saliva begins to be secreted in large quantities in an instant.

Closing his eyes in ecstasy, Ma Weiliang's body began to spin uncontrollably until he confirmed the direction of the fragrance, then he suddenly opened his eyes.

It's that RV!
Ma Weiliang looked at the RV in surprise, which had not existed yesterday, and couldn't help but start to guess what he was selling.

Judging from the smell, it's definitely pork, but I don't know what they are selling specifically.

As time went by, the stall owners around also smelled the rich aroma of meat.

All the stall owners began to look around, wanting to know where such a strong competitor came from.

It's not self-deprecation. The moment the stall owners smelled the fragrance, they knew that the food they sold could not compare to it in any way.

However, they are not worried about not being able to sell their products. After all, there are so many tourists and everyone will definitely be able to eat their fill.

I'm simply curious about what kind of delicacy it is that is so delicious that it makes people drool just by smelling it.
