"Time is up!"

After a not-too-long wait, Li Heng finally took action.

He took the cooked salted duck eggs out of the pot and put them into cold water to cool them down.

This will separate the egg white from the shell, making it easier to peel.

After cooling, tap the eggshell lightly and it will fall off by itself, then break the duck egg in the middle.

The orange-red yolk wrapped in the white egg white looks both dense and granular.

In just a moment, the bright yellow-red oil emerges from the egg yolk, and the unique aroma of the oil makes people want to taste it.

Which one tastes better, egg yolk or egg white?

Just by looking at the appearance, it is not difficult to tell that Li Heng’s pickled salted duck eggs were successful.

"Here! You two try it first."

He stuffed the peeled salted duck eggs directly into the two little ones' mouths.

Although the two of them haven't spoken yet, their desire to eat is evident in their eyes.

"Hmm~"

The two little ones were suddenly fed and were caught off guard. They didn't even have time to wipe the saliva from the corners of their mouths, but their mouths were filled with food.

"Hehe, thank you Brother Li Heng!"

The two little ones' eyes curved into crescents. After thanking Li Heng, they began to enjoy the freshly-cooked salted duck eggs.

The egg white is tender and chewy, and a little salty, but when eaten with the egg yolk, the saltiness is just right.

The egg yolk tastes crunchy and sticky, with a delicate texture, leaving your mouth full of fragrance that you will never forget.

"Is it delicious?"

Li Heng didn't get to eat it, so he could only listen to the two little ones' comments.

"Mmm! It's delicious!"

The two little ones nodded repeatedly while savoring the salted duck eggs.

"Okay! Then let's have this for lunch today!"

Because he was traveling in the rain, Li Heng was not in the mood to cook.

He originally planned to cook some porridge, add some pickles, and let everyone have a meal to eat.

However, when he saw that his pickled salted duck eggs were a great success, he immediately had other ideas.

Who can blame Li Heng? Every time he harvests new ingredients, he always feels itchy and wants to turn them into new dishes.

Of course, the porridge still needs to be cooked. What Li Heng wants to do is to allow everyone to eat an extra side dish while drinking the porridge.

But before that, he still needs to process the salted duck eggs in the jar.

After tasting by the two little ones, the salted duck eggs are now at their best.

If left alone in the jar, the eggs will absorb more salt and become saltier and saltier.

All Li Heng had to do was to take out all the duck eggs, wash them, and then put them in the pot to cook.

Cooked salted duck eggs will not deteriorate easily as long as they are well stored.

Well, actually, Li Heng’s idea was completely unnecessary.

Only a few dozen salted duck eggs were pickled in total. If the dozen or so people in this group were allowed to eat as much as they wanted, they would probably be finished in one meal.

There is no need to worry about storage issues.

Li Heng assigned the task of boiling salted duck eggs to Danning, even though the two children had strongly recommended themselves to him.

Li Heng was not worried that the two kids couldn't do the job well. He just simply didn't trust their self-awareness.

"Brother Li Heng, do you suspect that we are having an affair? How could you do this?"

"I am the eldest sister of Xiaochufeng after all. You can doubt my IQ, but you can't doubt my character. No, it's Lu Ge!"

"Yes! And Xiao Chi's bird grid!"

Xiao Chi was also filled with indignation.

"Humph! I just wanted to help you, but you took my kindness for granted."

Lu Xiaoxiao stood opposite Li Heng. She put one hand on her waist, stepped on a small stool, pointed at Li Heng, and shouted indignantly.

However, the louder her voice was, the more it revealed her true thoughts.

"Strange? Was my performance really that obvious? How come the damned Brother Li Heng saw through it all of a sudden!"

Lu Xiaoxiao thought to herself.

"Oh? Since you guys want to help me so much, why don't you help me make some porridge?"

Facing the two little ones' "confusing right and wrong" and "groundless accusations", Li Heng only used one strategy, that is - to turn the tables on them.

"You..., we... we just go."

Faced with Li Heng's conspiracy, the two little ones had no choice but to give in and cook porridge obediently.

If I don't go, all the excuses I made before will really become excuses.

"Cuckoo~"

"Shiqi! Is Li Heng always so interesting? How come cooking feels like a game of scheming?"

Nangong Ya watched Li Heng and the two little ones playing around and couldn't stop laughing.

When she was in Miaoyin Sect, she seldom had the opportunity to see such joyful scenes because of her work.

"Hahaha, Sect Master, you are right. As long as Master Li Feng and the two little girls are here, they can always bring joy to everyone."

Lin Shiqi was also very happy, smiling from ear to ear.

Li Heng naturally enjoyed this. He felt uncomfortable if he didn't fight with the two little ones every day.

After taking care of the two little ones, he waited for Danning to give him the boiled salted duck eggs while preparing the various ingredients needed for cooking.

For lunch today, Li Heng only planned to make one dish, egg yolk eggplant, the full name of which is: Braised Eggplant with Salted Egg Yolk.

As the name suggests, this dish mainly uses two ingredients: eggplant and salted duck egg yolk.

Li Heng has always felt that salted egg yolk is a magical ingredient, and any dish cooked with it is delicious.

Just like the braised eggplant with salted egg yolk that I’m going to make today.

Without further ado, Li Heng has already started processing the eggplants.

First peel the eggplant, then cut it into sections and then into strips.

Soak the cut eggplant strips in salt water to prevent them from oxidizing and turning black.

Just at this moment, Danning came to Li Heng with a pot of boiled salted duck eggs.

"Yes, the time is just right, let's put it here first!"

Li Heng pointed to the empty space on the stove.

Then he picked out five salted duck eggs from the basin.

After peeling the shell, pick out the egg yolk.

Don’t waste the egg white, you can save it and mix it with porridge later.

Place five egg yolks on a chopping board, crush them with a kitchen knife, and put them into a bowl for later use.

Next, remove the eggplant strips, drain the water, and put them into a dry basin.

Heat a pan with plenty of oil.

When the oil temperature reaches 50% hot, pour in the eggplant strips and fry for about two to three minutes. When the eggplant strips become soft, you can remove them from the oil.

What needs to be noted here is that the eggplant must be fried thoroughly, otherwise it will affect the taste.

Still using the same pan, pour out the excess oil, leaving only a small amount of base oil.

First add the crushed salted egg yolks and stir-fry over low heat.

After the salted egg yolks are fried until bubbles appear, add the chopped chili peppers that you have prepared in advance and stir-fry until the spicy flavor comes out.

Add the fried eggplant strips and continue to fry over low heat.

Because salted egg yolks are easy to burn, you need to keep stirring them with a spatula.

Continuous stir-frying can also allow the salted egg yolk to be evenly coated on the surface of each eggplant strip.

Add two teaspoons of soy sauce and one teaspoon of salt for seasoning.

Although salted egg yolk has the word "salty" in its name, it actually does not taste salty, so you need to add salt.

After adding the seasoning, stir-fry it for seven or eight times and the eggplant braised with salted egg yolk is ready.

When serving, don’t forget to sprinkle some chopped green onions as garnish.

I don’t know if you like this dish or not, but I like it very much!
