The Blessing of the Qi Nv of Transmigration

Chapter 5 Cooking Theory
While Yang Feier was thinking in his heart, he washed and cut the meat quickly with his hands and feet. Xiao Guang and Xiao Chang also fished the screws back at this time. When they saw a pile of meat on the chopping board, they were so shocked that their eyeballs almost fell out. Pulling Yang Feier's sleeves from left to right, he asked repeatedly: "Sister, are you going to roast meat for lunch today? There is so much meat, can we also eat some?"

Yang Feier knew from Xiu'er's memory that whenever the family bought meat, they would only buy two or three taels, chop it into minced meat, add some salt, steam it, and add boiling water to make minced meat soup to nourish Xiu'er's body. , Including the month when I came to this house, the same is true. Everyone else just ate their own pumpkin and sweet potato with pickles as usual, even including the two twins.

Thinking of this, Yang Feier couldn't help but feel sad, and said: "There is a lot of meat today, our family can eat it, and you two can eat it too."

He raised his voice again: "Xiao Guang, go and light the fire, Xiao Chang, go and bring some grass back, sister will cook braised pork for you."

The two little ones were busy with work, Yang Feier turned around and wiped away tears quietly, then poured all the meat into the pot, added a large ladle of water to the pot to cover the meat by about one centimeter, and added ginger Garlic, star anise, pepper, soy sauce and salt were added one after another. Unfortunately, there was no vinegar, rice wine and rock sugar, so we had to make do with it. Cover the pot and let the bottom burn on medium heat.

Put rice in another pot and cook a pot of white rice. Yang Feier thought while doing it. No wonder in his previous life he heard that once he did charity, he would never let it go. Some people went to impoverished mountainous areas and saw Those innocent children who lack clothing, food and books, surround you like little beggars, and they will collapse immediately, and even hard-hearted people can't stand the scene.

Thinking of this, I later realized that Xiao Guang and Xiao Chang had reached the age of going to school. They fed chickens and cooked with them every day, and also worried about their own affairs. The rest of the money was used to pay Xiuer's medical expenses, and even Hu Kang went to work in the fields, and the children just dropped out of school and stayed at home.Yang Feier secretly made up his mind that when the family life improves, the first thing to do is to let the three children go back to school.

At this moment, the smell of braised pork was filling the room. Xiaoguang and Xiaochang sniffed vigorously while swallowing, and heard the sound of fatty meat coming out of the pot gradually. Yang Feier lifted the lid of the pot, There is still a bowl of water left, which is just right, and then add the green peppers cut into large pieces, and ask Xiaoguang to heat up the fire under the pot, and then start to stir fry. This is the way of this kind of braised pork The key step is to stir-fry the soup over high heat to make the meat fragrant and oily. Seeing that the soup has become rich and mellow, Yang Feier covered the pot again and ordered the stove to lower the fire. More oil is needed to brighten the dishes. Just a minute or two.

Taking the plate handed over by Xiao Chang, who was in charge of laying hands as usual, he put the meat out of the pot and put it on a high plate. The three of them looked at it and saw that the meat on the plate was bright red and oily, dotted with emerald green peppers, steaming and making people salivate Xiaoguang and Xiaochang couldn’t remember the last time they ate meat. They only smelled that fragrance from a distance when they roasted meat in other places.

I never imagined that my family actually cooked this big plate of delicious food today. The salivation in the mouths of the two children couldn't stop overflowing, and they couldn't help themselves, so they had to gulp down, but the sister didn't do anything, and they didn't dare to act rashly, so they had to mobilize all their willpower Force yourself to hold back.

Fan the hot air on the plate with his hands, thinking that the meat is not as hot as it was when it was just out of the pan, Yang Feier signaled that it can be started, and then the two of them took a piece each with chopsticks, put it in their mouths, bit down, and filled their mouths It's all oil, so I can't satisfy my cravings. After chewing, I feel that the fat meat melts in the mouth, the skin is sticky and soft, and the lean meat is tender and refreshing. The mouthful is full of meaty fragrance, and it goes straight to the nasal cavity and reaches the brain. The two feel delicious Incomparable, extremely enjoyable.

Yang Feier also tasted a piece. Although the seasoning was not complete, the advantage was that it was organically grown and green food, and the taste was not bad.

Suddenly there was a sound of rattling outside the window, and the three of them looked together, and there were actually two five or six-year-old children with their heads sticking out of the window sill, looking in eagerly, with saliva flowing to their chins, but not dripping.It was the two grandsons of the village chief Tang Zhengfu's family, one was Changle, the second son of the eldest son's family, and the other was Chang'an, the eldest son of the second son's family. I knew this was the only son of Uncle Tang's family next door, named Shuan'er, who was six years old this year, and the sound just now probably meant that Shuan'er was squeezed out.These three children are also pampered at home, but the children of farming families are at most just fed and clothed. The smell of meat attracted them. Yang Feier has always liked children. Seeing these children look funny, he couldn't help but smile, so he fed them one by one through the window, and said to them: "Okay, we don't have many at home anymore. Go back after eating."

Seeing the three children rushing away with the meat in their mouths, Yang Feier smiled again.

In fact, these three children are all well-educated, not the ones who are used to looking at their mouths. The village chief's family has a very serious family style.

When Father Hu's family fled famine to this Tangjia Village, they were all the fathers of the village head's family. The old village head helped them settle down in this Tangjia Village. I found a long-term job for Mr. Hu, and finally got a foothold here, and only then did Mr. Hu and his family flourish.

Uncle Tang’s family is also a good neighbor. They have been in contact with each other since their father’s generation. They have been helpful to the Hu family for many years, and they have not been bullied because the Hu family is an outsider. It's a pity that due to the loss of health when giving birth to Shuan, the doctor said that Aunt Tang might not be able to conceive again in the future, so the whole family looked at Shuan'er's single seedling like an eyeball. Shuan'er is also well-behaved and sensible.

I'm not afraid that they will go back and say it, if they dare to say it, they will definitely not escape a beating, and there will be no chance to come to eat again.

Watching the little greedy cats leave, Yang Feier divided a bowl of braised pork, reserved for the three siblings, put the other three-quarters into an earthen jar, and covered it, because yesterday he saw grandpa and grandma. I like the appearance of fish soup, so I still made a fish soup with the small fish picked out in the morning, and cooked the vegetables and tofu together, added a plate of pickles, and made three dishes and one soup. Put white rice in a crock and send it to the field with the twin brothers.

The rape and wheat seedlings in this field are growing wildly, and they look different every day. The grass on the ridge under the feet is tender and green, as if you can eat it directly after picking a handful. Yang Feier remembered that when he was a child, he was at his grandmother’s house. A kind of edible thatch core, called maoyi in the local dialect, covered with a layer of grass coat, peeled off when it is tender, like a compact and moist feather, bulging and white, long and long, sweet in the mouth The water is tender and tender, and there is a scent of green grass, which is the snack that nature bestows on children in spring. I thought, I will deliver the meal in a while, and find out if there is any here.

When they arrived under the big holly tree, Xiaoguang and Xiaochang called a few people in the field to eat, so Yang Feier searched on the nearby field ridges, and sure enough, he found another same barley, so he pulled out a lot and sat on the tree. I shared it with my twins, and the twins found it quite novel, and even the adults took a few to try something new. These days, Xiuer brought them surprises one after another. touch food.

Grandpa and grandma ate big white rice, braised pork with braised pork, and drank fish soup, and said with emotion: "These two days are like Chinese New Year, no, Chinese New Year is not so rich."

Hu Kang said: "The key is that even with the same ingredients, you can't make such a delicious dish. I really don't know how my sister came up with this method."

Yang Feier smiled and said, "I read it in the book."

Hu Kang thought for a while, then asked doubtfully, "I don't remember that I lent you the recipe?"

Yang Feier said: "If you want to cook well, you don't have to have a recipe. "Sun Tzu: Mou Gong Pian" says: Know your enemy and yourself, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. I, a little girl, don't need to understand how to cook. I just need to know myself and the enemy, understand the characteristics of each ingredient, highlight the advantages, and make up for the shortcomings. Laozi's "Tao Te Ching" also says: Governing a big country is like cooking small fish, which means that managing a big country is like cooking small fish. I don't know how to govern a big country. I understand, but I know that the cooking temperature must be controlled, and the oil, salt, sauce and vinegar must be just right, neither too much nor too little. It is not easy to understand these principles, but it is much easier to use them to live. , That's all, brother, don't laugh at me."

Yang Feier was talking nonsense. In fact, he was also a foodie in his previous life. He learned a lot of home-cooked dishes from his mother, and studied the recipes. The signature dishes of each department are basically decent except for the ones she doesn’t like. After making it, as long as colleagues and friends around me have tasted her cooking skills, they are all impressed. It turns out that those suitors are indeed bowing down to her pomegranate skirt, and even more so to her cooking skills, it is hard to let go!
While Hu Kang was dumbfounded, the rest of the crowd also showed surprise. After a while, Hu Kang said: "Your sister is really as smart as a fool. Just cooking at home is really burying her talent."

Yang Feier couldn't help but giggled with complacency and self-deprecation. The children's laughter was like silver bells ringing, melodious and melodious under the tree, which made everyone feel very comfortable.

Accompanied by the girl's silver-bell-like laughter, the family tasted delicious meals and also tasted the happiness after a long absence.

Dahu rushed to the field in the morning, and told everyone the amount he got from selling the prawns at the market early in the morning. They were all very surprised. They didn't know that the river prawns were so expensive. People can only occasionally fetch a few from the Internet. After all, there are too many fish and few shrimps, so that the rare is the most expensive. The 720 Wen, except the [-] Wen for buying vegetables, meat and rice, the rest is saved in a special In the earthen jar, buried under Dahu’s bed, that earthen earthen earthen earthen earthen earthen earthen earthen earthen earthen earthen earthen earthenware house has been inaccessible for a long time. I didn’t expect to put so much money in it at once today. It's full, not full.

Yang Feier is also in a particularly good mood. She can bring extra income to the family and do what she can do in the family. These sacrifices also allow her to find a sense of belonging. Watching the family happy With a smiling face, breathing in the fragrance of flowers and herbs in the field, Yang Feier had a real feeling for the first time since crossing.
