Chapter 205 Pickled Meat and Pickled Vegetables
After making up her mind, Si Ya followed her uncle to the town to buy materials.

The main ingredient of the sausage is naturally pork, and Mrs. Zhao also said to marinate some bacon to eat in winter, so Si Ya chose half a piece of pork that had just been killed in the butcher shop.

In the end, Si Ya asked the owner of the butcher shop to send a pair of pig offal and a lot of sausage casings.

These things were of no use to the butcher shop owner, seeing that Si Ya had bought these pork, he was happy to give Si Ya away.

Si Ya planned to take the casings and save them for sausages, wash the rest and save them for frying.

After buying a large amount of radishes and cabbage as well as some pickled aniseed ingredients, Si Ya and his uncle Zhao Hua drove home.

To say that it is really convenient to have a carriage. After buying these things, I just took them down to the house with ease.

Mrs. Zhao and her daughters had already boiled hot water and washed the dishes. They only waited for the things to be bought before they started to pickle the vegetables.

As soon as the carriage entered the yard, the mother and daughter of the Zhao family gathered around them. Looking at the sufficient amount of things on the carriage, everyone's faces were naturally beaming.

However, Si Ya's purchase of those pork still surprised everyone. When buying it, his uncle Zhao Hua asked Si Ya if he bought too much. In his opinion, this is a normal life, but it cannot be spent like this.

Zhao's mother and daughter are also used to frugality. Although life is better now, such a big deal has never been done before.

"Everyone, don't worry! Wait until I make the sausages! You must think that the meat I bought is still short!" Siya said amusedly, watching everyone look at her like a prodigal girl.

In fact, Si Ya also has plans in her heart, she plans to make more, and see if she can sell them in restaurants, and the pig intestines, liver, lungs, etc. Put it in the restaurant to make special dishes.

Things like pig offal are extremely delicious whether they are fried or marinated.

In ancient times, people seldom could cook this pig offal well, so if there is such a food in a restaurant, it is not only affordable but also a special feature.

The Zhao mother and daughter believed in Siya's craftsmanship, but it was just that there was so much pork, and they still felt a little distressed when they saw it.

However, considering that the condition of the family is better, anyway, it is worth eating in the stomach of the family, so although Zhao's mother and daughter feel a little distressed, they are also happy in their hearts.

After moving the pork, cabbage and radishes out of the carriage, everyone began to divide the work.

Zhao's eldest daughter, Xiaolian, and her uncle, Zhao Hua, were in charge of pickling radish and sauerkraut, and Siya brought Erya, Sanya, and Zhao Daniu to pickle sausages and spicy cabbage.

Originally, Zhao Fang and Zhao Daniu and his son were not needed. Pickles like this were usually made by the women at home.

But because Mrs. Zhao is inconvenient, and the eldest girls are still children, chopping meat, cutting radishes, poking cabbage, etc. require a lot of strength.

Fortunately, poor people don't pay much attention to it. Zhao Fang and Zhao Daniu are also willing to help everyone do it, saying that it is a family fun together.

After the work was divided, everyone started to work enthusiastically. Although there was light snow in the sky, it didn't affect everyone's interest at all.

On Zhao's side, Zhao Hua and Xiao Lian had already started to fetch water from the well to wash the radishes and cabbage. Naturally, they also helped to clean the cabbage that Si Ya needed.

Si Ya planned to make sausages first, and then spicy cabbage.

Erya, Sanya and Zhao Daniu had never heard of such a strange thing, so they could only do what Siya told them to do.

Siya and Erya Sanya first selected the half-scalloped pork and cut it into three parts fat and seven parts lean, and then left the rest for her mother to make bacon.

The choice of sausage meat is also particular. It is not that the more lean the meat, the better the taste, but that the authentic taste can only be produced if it is fat and thin.

After washing the selected pork, the next step is to chop the pork. In the previous life, there was a meat grinder, so it was not such a trouble. Now it can only rely on manual work.

"Cousin Daniu! I'll rely on you next time!" Siya naturally entrusted the strong Zhao Daniu to work that required physical strength.

"Cousin, don't worry, I ordered this meat to be chopped to your satisfaction!" Zhao Daniu started to act while talking.

Siya and the others couldn't be idle. After washing the casings with coarse salt, they smashed all the aniseed ingredients they bought into fine powder and waited to put them into the chopped meat.

Si Ya's meat has already been chopped.Zhao's radish has also been cut, and it is rubbing vigorously with coarse salt to remove the water!At this time, Zhao Huan also began to put the cabbage through hot water, and when it was half cooked, he picked it up and hung it in the air vent to dry.

After all the meat on Zhao Daniu's side was chopped, Erya, Sanya and Siya put the mashed aniseed ingredients inside and stirred them evenly, then covered them with wooden boards, and put them in the house to marinate for a day.

The sausage is temporarily completed, and the next step is to pickle spicy cabbage.

This pickled spicy cabbage is different from sauerkraut. First, you rub it vigorously with coarse salt until the water in the cabbage is almost gone, then wring it out and take it out.

After preparing the chili sauce for spicy cabbage, Si Ya spread the sauce evenly on the already limp cabbage, and then sealed it in an altar.The production of this spicy cabbage is not surprising to everyone, but everyone is very curious about the sausage.

But even if you are curious, you will have to wait a day to make it. Fortunately, everyone has an unusual patience for this pickle.

Zhao's radish has already been loaded into the altar, and the cabbage needs to be dried for some time before it can be loaded.

The bacon is not difficult, and the Zhao family members did not have much effort to make it, and hung it in a ventilated place in the house to dry.

After all this work, it's past lunch time.But even so, everyone is happy in their hearts, because there are many people who miss lunch on the first snow day every year.

After working all morning, everyone was starving, and Siya was going to reward everyone with a good meal.

After cleaning up the pig offal, Si Ya used a part of it to make some delicious pig offal stir-fries.Zhao's mother and daughter also ate the dishes made from this pig's water when they didn't eat them before, so they were not surprised.

The ones who were surprised were naturally Zhao Hua, Zhao Daniu and Xiaolian.They didn't believe that this thing was that thing until they finished eating all the dishes made by the pigs on the table.

"This is really insightful! Some people in our village couldn't eat at that time, so they picked up this pig and put it into the water to cook it. The smell of the pig was unbearable, let alone eaten! This niece is really amazing. Tight!" Zhao frame finally had to say.

After lunch, Si Ya took the sisters to make the leftover pig offal and braised pig offal!The stewed pig had a different flavor when it was cooked, so that everyone who was already full felt that they ate some more and yelled that their stomachs were full.

After discussing with the mother and daughter Zhao, they made several copies of the braised pigs and sent them to the Wu family, the scholar's mother-in-law's family, and Grandma Pan's house who was in charge of the workshop.

When the Siya sisters sent things over, they were all busy making pickles!Although most of the pickles are pickles and the like, they are all busy and happy.

Several families also asked Siya's family if the pickled vegetables were ready, and then took some of the vegetables they had just pickled for the sisters to take home.

When they got home, Si Ya found that Xiao Baohua had come to the house, playing with Xiao Zhaodi and Xiao Lele.

Baohua didn't come over for a few days, Siya thought that there was something going on at Little Gu Cuigu, so she called Baohua to her room to ask questions.

Si Ya also told Mrs. Zhao and her sisters about little aunt Cuigu. Fortunately, Mrs. Yang also loved Cuigu, so she couldn't casually tell Cuigu about her marriage.

"Sister Siya! It's nothing! It's just that my grandma and mother-in-law are making pickles there, and my mother is afraid that I will make grandma angry, so she let me come over to play at Siya's house!" Baohua felt helpless Said.

It's no wonder that Baohua is a greedy girl, and she can't control her eyes when she sees something to eat. Yang has a bad temper, so Baohua's behavior will make Yang angry!
But Mrs. Zhou's thoughts have to make people think deeply. Thanks to her persuasion in front of Mrs. Yang about Cuigu, now she sends Baohua over to get close to her family from time to time, which has to make Siya think about it.

"Baohua! Has your father returned home this month?" Si Ya asked after thinking about it.

"En! I went home a few days ago!" Baohua replied.

"By the way, fourth sister! Did the third aunt open a big restaurant in the town? I heard father and mother talk about this! Mother still doesn't believe it, and said that father's vision was wrong!" Baohua was curious. asked.

After listening to Baohua's words, Siya knew what she was saying. How could Baohua know such a thing, Zhou must have taught her.

"Of course your third aunt didn't open the restaurant! How can our family have any money!" Siya replied, Baohua said.

"Hey! Mom told Dad that too!" Baohua actually didn't understand these things, so she just finished what her mother taught her and didn't say anything else.

"By the way! Have you eaten yet?" Siya asked Baohua.

"No! Grandma said that the pickled vegetables can't be finished, and no one in the family is allowed to eat!" After saying this, Baohua Kugua said with a frowning face, rubbing her hungry and shriveled belly.

Seeing Bao Hua's pitiful appearance, Si Ya prepared to take her to the kitchen to eat something, after all children are growing up.

"By the way, Fourth Sister! My mother asked if you are still writing letters to my sister! She said that she has been seeing Liang Xiucai to find my uncle in the past few days!" Baohua suddenly thought of what her mother asked herself to ask things come.

With Zhou's cleverness, he has seen the matter of Siya and Cuigu, not to mention there is Baohua in the middle!

Hearing Baohua's question, Si Ya's heart skipped a beat.

I haven't communicated with my sister-in-law for a long time!
