Chapter 62 64: New Year's Dinner (2)

There are not many relatives in the family, only Lin Xiang and Lin Yan are quiet. After lunch, there is nothing to do. Lin Yan went out for a walk to digest food. Lin Xiang felt a little sleepy because it was still early , leaned on the couch and slept for a while.

……

When it was getting late in the afternoon, Lin Xiang just woke up.

Lin Yan was drinking water and said, "Sister, aren't we going to Mrs. Wang's house for dinner?"

Lin Xiang was startled when he heard this, and turned pale.

"What's the matter?" Seeing Lin Xiang hurriedly got up from the collapsed house, Lin Yan felt a little strange.

"I want to make something to take there—" Although he took some sweet-scented osmanthus cakes in, Lin Xiang still felt a little embarrassed.After all, it's New Year's Eve, and it's New Year's Eve tonight, so it's not good to take too much advantage from others.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiang quickly went to the stove.

"Sister, what are you going to do?" Lin Yan leaned over curiously, watching Lin Xiang raise the fire again.

Lin Xiang smiled lightly, looking at the morning, when the chicken soup that had cooled down because it was cooked had already begun to boil, and he felt a little bit of anticipation in his heart——

Taking out the boiled chicken bones from the pot, Lin Xiang took chili powder and sprinkled some of it into the pot casually, and the boiling hot soup started to simmer.

But after a while, Lin Xiang sprinkled in all the big ingredients that could be used, such as star anise, such as sliced ​​ginger.

"Lin Yan, didn't you buy a lot of vegetables in the morning?"

Lin Yan heard the sound and leaned over——

"Yeah, do you want to cook?"

Lin Xiang asked Lin Yan to take a lot of vegetables from the things he bought in the morning——

"Put more soybean sprouts..." Lin Xiang muttered.

The milky white chicken soup in the pot slowly overflows with aroma, and the emerald green vegetables are boiled in the pot until they float——

After grabbing half of the plate of juicy soybean sprouts, Lin Xiang poured them all in——

White and tender tofu, light pink meat slices sliced ​​into regular shapes——

Lin Yan looked at it, feeling more and more familiar. After a long while, he suddenly screamed, staring closely at Lin Xiang's eyes, and then looked at the food in the pot: "Fire... hot pot?"

Lin Xiang pursed his lips and smiled.

A moment later, Lin Xiang turned his face to his younger brother who was full of surprise and said, "The eyes are quite sharp."

Hot pot, hot pot...

Lin Yan just thought about it, and the saliva in his mouth began to flood.

Either light or strong soup, or spicy or spicy soup base, pour lamb slices, lettuce, chrysanthemum chrysanthemum, tofu, bean sprouts, meatballs, fish tofu...anything you can imagine, there is nothing you can't Cooked in a hot pot.

Because Lin Xiang added some peppers to the bottom of the chicken soup, the bottom of the soup at this moment looks a little reddish, bright in color, attractive, with a faint layer of oil, with sliced ​​meat and various vegetables in it, familiar The scent has already wafted out——

The mouth began to salivate, and the taste that originally belonged to the hot pot began to emerge from Lin Yan's mind continuously——

Slices of meat with soup, hot breath, dipped in a small amount of blended sauce, a little bit of coolness and hotness, put it in the mouth, the tip of the tongue is very delicious, it belongs to the original taste of the dish, with The deliciousness of the soup base makes people unable to stop.

"But it's just a little different." Lin Xiang thought for a while, then turned to Lin Yan again.

The skill in his hands is not slow, Lin Xiang kept adding dishes to the soup pot, and at the same time cut the pork slices bought this morning into neat slices——

"First, because we don't have mutton now, pork is used for shabu-shabu."

Lin Yan didn't say anything because of this, but his mouth was full of saliva.

"Secondly, we don't have the induction cooker like in modern restaurants..." Lin Xiang said, feeling a little pity in his heart.

Yes.

If you have an induction cooker in your hand, you can eat it now.

"So, if we want to eat something like hot pot, we can only cook the food, vegetables, and meat..." Lin Xiang talked, thought for a while, and said: "It's a bit like Kanto...cooking? Then feeling?"

"However, our soup pot here has more things in it, including vegetables and meat."

A thick mist began to float above the soup pot, moist and hot, with a spicy smell lingering at the tip of the nose——

How could Lin Yan hear what Lin Xiang said, he just said: "Hot pot or shabu-shabu is just one that is eaten and shaved immediately, and the other is eaten after rinsing. The taste is not much different before and after. Juice, don’t want one.”

Lin Xiang smiled: "If you want to eat sauce, I can give you a seasoning bowl."

"No, we'll talk about it next time." Lin Yan was full during lunch, but smelling the aroma of the cooked dishes at this time, his stomach inevitably screamed "gurgling".

"Then I'll make the soup base a little saltier." Hearing this, Lin Xiang added another spoonful of the sauce on hand.

"Gululu——" The red soup in the pot began to bubble continuously, and the lettuce began to roll up after being cooked. Lin Xiang leaned closer to smell the aroma.

After a while, Lin Xiang poured all the sliced ​​meat into the pot——

Lin Yan swallowed his saliva.

Lin Xiang picked up the small bowl on the side, scooped up the spoon, and filled the bowl with the vegetables and soup in the pot.

"Go and eat something first." Lin Xiang looked at Lin Yan helplessly.

Lin Yan yelled in surprise, then put the food in his hands in an instant, ran to the table in a hurry, picked up the chopsticks, and ate without caring about the hot hands.

The tip of the tongue is drenched with hot juice, and the delicious hot aroma fills the mouth and eyes——

Lin Yan gulped down the soup that came to his mouth, showing a little satisfaction.

……

Lin Xiang quickly stirred the contents of the pot twice, and the meat slices were cooked quickly, but it would be out of the pot after a while.

Put all the misty and hot soup and meat dishes in the pot into the big basin.

At this moment, Lin Yan had already eaten all the food in a small bowl.

Licking his mouth, Lin Yan narrowed his eyes.

Lin Xiang extinguished the fire on the stove, and said: "Let's not rush there, later..." While talking, there was a knock on the door of the room over there——

"Deng deng deng-"

Lin Yan raised his eyebrows, then quickly ran to the door, opened the door, and saw Mrs. Wang's face.

"Let's go—" Wang's sister-in-law didn't enter the house either, but when she saw Lin Yan, she took his arm and said, "Lin Xiang, come out—"

"Hey——" Lin Xiang responded briefly, and after sweeping the dust off the stove, he quickly washed his hands.

Lin Yan was somewhat at a loss and was dragged away by Mrs. Wang.
