Rebirth of a farmer's daughter

Chapter 230 Delicious Food
"En." Qian Jin nodded and answered with one word.Even if she explained to Mrs. Chen how valuable warm jade is and how rare pearls are, she would just blink, her eyes darkened, and she didn't understand anything.Moreover, if these words were heard by others, wouldn't it cause trouble for her family, so it would be better to be ambiguous.

For the dishes on the main table, Qianjin had ordered people to prepare the ingredients, and she would cook all the dishes...Because the country people don't have a good appetite, as long as they can eat enough, so when Mrs. Yu is in good health, everyone They all take turns to cook, and then Liu Ma came, basically everyone said what they wanted to eat, and then let her cook, or add some characteristics of Liu Ma's hometown, don't be picky.

But today is different, Qian Jin decided to treat her well. Although it doesn't fit the scene to do it by herself, it's better than letting others go hungry.

The banquets in the village are all big pot dishes, that is, set up a stove outside, cook them in a big pot, and then serve them in bowls. The taste of them can be imagined.For the people in the village, it is rare to be able to eat fish or meat, and the taste does not matter, as long as they are happy to eat.

But Duan Zixuan, Yun Shiyu, and Butler Bai are used to delicacies from mountains and seas. If they were allowed to eat a big pot of rice, they would probably spit it out for her, so to avoid embarrassment, she could only do it herself.

"Qianjin, this is eel meat scraped from shells. It has been rolled up. Do you want to use it now?" Yue'erniang was pulled by Qianjin to help in the kitchen.

"Wake up first, is the minced meat ready?" Qian Jin asked after checking the items on the chopping board.

"It's chopped, it's outside, I'll get it."

"Okay." Qianjin nodded, put on the apron and sleeves she made herself, and started today's meal.

The first thing a countryman treats guests is to eat first. Qianjin looked up and found that the time was almost up, so she ordered Yulan, who was sitting in the old place in the stove, to light the fire and start cooking.

Yulan is much better than before, and her eyes are much clearer, but after waking up, there is a trace of deepness in her eyes, so the busy daughter didn't notice the change, but she felt that Yulan was very quiet, almost the same as before, Only occasionally when Tu Tu's heels are full, will he show a faint smile, which makes Qian Jin feel relieved and tense, not knowing what to do.

The ingredients have been prepared long ago, so it is more convenient to cook.

All the things to be cooked are freshly fried or steamed, and the required taste is fresher and better.

The first thing to do is fried bean noodles, also known as sweet potato noodles.The ancients were smart. They have developed sweet potato flour and sweet potato noodles, but the specific method is not as well known as Qianjin.When they are frying bean noodles, they all soak the bean noodles in water for half an hour or boil them in a pot, take them out and drain them for later use, which is completely different from Qianjin's method.

The fried bean noodles that Qianjin makes are to fry the dried bean noodles directly in the wok, which requires a higher heat and a more fragrant taste, and the skill must be exquisite.

In front of fried beans, you must choose a big pot. After the pot is dry, Qian Jin puts a certain amount of half-lean and half-fat meat in the big pot. After the oil is fried, then add dried shrimp, dried eel, and fish noodles. , mushrooms, shredded pork, cabbage and other ingredients stir fry.During the stir-frying process, put the dried bean noodles on one side of the cauldron at an angle, stir-fry quickly, without stopping your hands, ask Magnolia to increase the fire, and then put special rice wine in the pot from time to time, and be careful not to stir-fry the bean noodles Burnt... After a while, a scent even covered up the stewed braised pork. The strong scent spread in Zhou's yard, attracting some people's attention.

"It smells so good, what is Qianjin burning?" someone asked curiously, wiggling their noses.

"Yeah, it's more delicious than braised pork, and I don't know what good things are hidden." Curiosity is there, but it's for entertaining distinguished guests, and it's not something they can covet.

Asked about the fragrance in the air, Duan Zixuan, who was chatting, blinked at the other two, and said with a smile that looked like no elder: "Haha, just by smelling this fragrance, I know that we are lucky today." !"

"Well, this fragrance is really craving!" Yun Shiyu nodded in agreement.

Butler Bai just raised a smile on the corner of his mouth and did not answer. Among the three of them, he is the least qualified to interrupt. After all, he is a servant, and it is already a big face to be regarded as the honored guest by the daughter. take joe.

If Duan Zixuan and Yun Shiyu didn't come, he would be the biggest, but when they came, I could only shrink back and laugh.

The fried bean noodles are soft and delicious, with a tangy aroma and a particularly good taste. After trying it, Qianjin nodded with satisfaction and showed a happy smile.

The fried bean noodles are covered with a layer of thinly sliced ​​and shredded egg, which adds to the visual enjoyment.

"Take all these first and let the guests come to the table!" Qian Jin whispered to Yue Erniang who was standing by, pointing at the vegetables.

"Okay." Yue'erniang brought the wooden plate, put the bean noodles on it, then turned and walked out.

"This seems to be a little different." Yun Shiyu, who often eats fried bean noodles, looked at the extraordinarily beautiful fried bean noodles on the table, and was a little bit hesitant.

"Yeah, we usually eat creamy and greasy food, without this compelling aroma." Duan Zixuan nodded in agreement, feeling that this sentence was too pertinent.

The fried bean noodles are placed in the middle of the square table, and there are eight cold dishes next to each. They are large pieces of dried eel cut into pieces and steamed, and then fresh small cuttlefish with the contents removed, and the whole one is put in the pot. Boil chili, star anise, fennel and other ingredients until they are cooked, take them out, put them on the cutting board and cut them into strips and then put them in the shape of a whole one. It is inconspicuous but attractive.

Black dates in honey sauce, assortment of fresh snails, special mud snails plus a few vegetarian dishes, attracting attention from the very beginning.

After the bean noodles were fried, Qianjin started kneading the meatballs in the kitchen.Add the minced meat to the tofu, a little rice wine and some finely ground salt, then sprinkle the sweet potato powder, and mix these things in vigorously without leaving any gaps until they blend together, then knead Form into round meat balls and steam them on the steamer...

Such meatballs are clear in color, not oily or greasy, chewy, delicious, and stimulate people's appetite... For steamed meatballs, Qianjin has an emotion that she can't give up.

In the previous life, every household had weddings, weddings and weddings, regardless of whether they had money or not, this was a must, and the first one would be wiped out, which shows how good the taste is.

"Qianjin, your hands are really skillful. Look at the dishes you cook, everything is exquisite, better than those made in big restaurants." Yueerniang watched from the side, seeing that Qianjin didn't hide her thoughts at all, she was also happy in her heart ... It's not that she wants to steal a lesson, but that Qianjin trusts her, which makes her very happy.

"Sister-in-law has eaten the food in the big restaurant?" Qian Jin asked jokingly.

"Hehe, my sister-in-law has such a blessing. When I served the dishes, I heard some guests talking about it." Yue Erniang replied with a smile.

"Really?" It's good to get good comments from them. At least I won't do business in the future, and I can open a restaurant to support my family. It's a good idea.

"They are all urging you, telling you to hurry up, they can't wait." Yue'erniang couldn't help feeling funny when she thought of the way she said this.

In the eyes of the villagers, they are high above them, they are big figures out of their reach, but now they are chasing after eating the dishes made by Qianjin, isn't it a little funny?But no matter how funny they were, she didn't dare to laugh at them.
