The pork slice soup that Du Heng is going to make is very simple. He has tasted this soup once, and it feels very convenient and light.Just dip the thinly sliced meat in starch and flatten it with the back of a knife or rolling pin.
A palm-sized piece of meat is knocked thin, and when unfolded, it will become two or three times as big as before.Then add water to the pot, put salt and a few drops of soybean oil. After the water boils, put the hammered meat slices into the boiling water one by one.As long as the soup in the pot is boiled again, it can be out of the pot!
Sprinkle a little white pepper powder and monosodium glutamate before serving, it is fresh and tender, the old people and children like this taste.
Du Heng hammered the meat slices evenly and quickly on the chopping board. Hammering the meat slices does not require much strength. What he needs is to hammer the meat slices into thin slices, not to hammer them into puree.Du Heng only cut more than [-] pieces of front leg meat, but after he hammered it, the meat slices piled up on the chopping board seemed to be several times larger than the meat he cut.
This is all thanks to the starch!Du Heng picked up a piece of meat that was stained with starch, and he made a gesture. After the piece of meat was hammered open, it was about the size of Xiaoxiao's face.
The water in the pot boiled, Du Heng threw the meat slices into the pot one by one, and then gently cut them apart with chopsticks.The water in the pot immediately became cloudy, and the meat slices were also covered with a layer of crystal starch coagulation.
When the water boiled, he threw the lily petals in Shau Kei into the pot.The petals become soft when they meet hot water, and the water in the pot boils after a while.Du Heng sprinkled a little mushroom essence to taste, and the soup was delicious.
He took out a large bowl and put the sliced meat soup in the bowl.The dishes he cooks are all home-cooked, without too many decorations, but they look real.
The meat slice soup tastes good, and everyone feels good about the meat slices.But the lily petals become soft and rotten after being boiled, and it tastes slightly bitter and a little greasy.This taste...not everyone likes it very much.
Du Heng felt that the lilies in the courtyard of Jing Nan's house could not be sold, so it was better to cut them honestly and arrange them.Or there is a problem with his craftsmanship. If he can know how to eat flowers, maybe the meat slice soup will taste better.
But to cook food is to move forward in the process of constant overturning.Which cook has never stepped on a pit? Facing unfamiliar ingredients, it is normal to overturn the car.
Time passed by little by little, these few days Du Heng worked hard to practice cooking, and in a blink of an eye it was the day of Lixia.Wen Qiong was about to leave the village and go home.
Du Heng packed food for Wen Qiong to take away in the refrigerator. He knew that Wen Qiong liked to eat sweets and leftovers. He made a lot of chicken feet and duck necks in the past few days, and he packed a full one for Wen Qiong. The storage bag really couldn't fit in it, so he made a small backpack for her and stuffed it in it.
Wen Qiong was wearing a bright red dress today, and she was wearing the same color when she came to the village, but when she came, the village was covered with snow.Now that she is gone, Ling Zhi in the village has grown taller than her.
The little butterfly hairpin on Wen Qiong's head shone in the sun, her eyes were big and round, and when she smiled, two dimples were revealed.When she smiled at Du Heng, Du Heng's eyes were slightly red.
I don't know when I will see Wen Qiong after this trip, Du Heng handed the storage bag in his hand to Wen Qiong: "Master, the storage bag is filled with your favorite things, Xuanyu help me strengthen it." If you leave the formation on the storage bag, it can be stored for a month at most."
He handed the finished small backpack to Wen Qiong: "You can eat the food in the backpack on the road. There is no formation in it, and the storage time is a bit short. You should try to eat it in the next two days."
Wen Qiong put the storage bag in her sleeve with a smile, and then put on a nondescript small backpack.She said crisply: "Thank you, apprentice. I will eat these things properly as a teacher. After the teacher leaves, you have to practice hard. You are about to form an alchemy. Remember not to be careless. There is no shortcut to practice. You can't slack off even if the teacher is not by your side."
Wen Qiong said this to Du Heng hundreds of times, and Du Heng's ears almost grew calluses.But now that Wen Qiong is about to leave, Du Heng felt sour after hearing these words: "Disciple, remember."
Wen Qiong patted Du Heng's shoulder with a smile: "The parting is for a better encounter. I hope that when we meet again next time, you will already be a mature and reliable monk!"
After taking care of Du Heng, Wen Qiong formally saluted Jing Nan and Xuan Yu.Wen Qiong said to Jing Nan: "My lords, thank you for your care during this time."
Jing Nan smiled and said, "We are the ones who caused trouble for Xiao Qiong. We knew you were busy and called you here. After we go back, we will continue to tire you to run around for our affairs."
Wen Qiong smiled and said: "It should be, Wen Qiong's life is given by everyone. It should be done for such a small thing."
Xuan Yu returned a salute to Wen Qiong: "Thank you, Xiao Qiong." Wen Qiong narrowed his eyes: "Master Xuan, you asked me to teach Du Heng. Although I didn't spend long with him, as a disciple, he I admit it. If there is a chance in the future, I will introduce him to my other disciples."
Xuan Yu nodded: "Thank you Xiao Qiong for planning for Du Heng."
Wen Qiong looked at Du Heng with a smile: "If there is a chance to see you again in the future, I will bring your five senior brothers and sisters to see you. Don't forget to cook a table of delicious food for them then."
Du Heng nodded: "Disciple remembers."
Wen Qiong's eyes fell on Xiaoxiao, and she suddenly smiled treacherously: "Xiaofengjun, can I hug you?" Xiaoxiao stretched out her wings to Wen Qiong, and Wen Qiong hugged you with a cry. Stopped smiling, she kissed and smiled several times: "Mr. Xiaofeng is so cute~~"
When Wen Qiong kissed enough, she bowed to everyone contentedly: "Wen Qiong, please take care of yourself."
Everyone stood at the entrance of the village and watched Wen Qiong's figure gradually become smaller, and she left.As silent as she came.
After Wen Qiong left, the village became even more deserted.There are only four people in the village, Du Heng can't imagine, before he came to the village, there were only Xuan Yu and Jing Nan smiling, how did the three of them live?
I'm afraid that if I say a word, no one will respond for a long time, right?How lonely must that be?
People, excitement is temporary, you have to learn to enjoy loneliness.Even if there is only one person, you should live a good life.
Since Wen Qiong left, time has lost its meaning to Du Heng. Every day when he opens his eyes, he repeats his practice and cooking for everyone.As the days flowed slowly like running water, Du Heng's vegetable field expanded little by little, and he planted more and more vegetables.
After the beginning of summer, the temperature gradually increased. The pumpkins transplanted by Du Heng before slowly stretched out their vines, and some impatient pumpkins even bloomed yellow flowers.
The life in the village is still going on step by step. If it were someone else, they would definitely feel that the life in the village was monotonous and depressing, but Du Heng didn't feel that way.With Xuan Yu and Jing Nan around, Du Heng felt that his life was more fulfilling and more comfortable. He left more and more traces in the village, and he discovered more and more fun every day.
Two days ago, he went to Lingxi Town with Xuanyu and Xiaoxiao, and this time he bought a lot of pots and jars.After returning, pickles were soaked in his jar.He soaked peppers and sour bamboo shoots in the jar, and when there were beans in two days, he could put the beans into the kimchi jar.
Du Heng looked at the crisp plums in the peach grove, they were ready to be picked.He specially bought several jars of soaking wine, just for the plums in the forest.
The plums are only bigger than the thumb, each one is green and oily, and it is slightly sour and astringent after a bite.Du Heng carefully picked the plums off the tree with a smile. There were quite a lot of plums, and a basket full of plums was picked from one tree.
When Du Heng returned to the courtyard with the basket on his back, he happened to see Xuan Yu coming out of Fenggui's house with Jing Nan in his arms.Jing Nan has become more and more lethargic recently, and sometimes he would fall down with a thump when he was talking properly.
Du Heng asked worriedly: "Fall asleep again?"
Xuan Yu nodded: "Yeah, I thought about it, let Jing Nan live downstairs in our house first? It's good for everyone to be together. His current situation is not suitable for living alone."
Du Heng put down the pannier, went to the guest room and helped Jing Nan put on a new sheet, Xuan Yu put Jing Nan on the bed carefully.Jing Nan was completely unconscious, and Xuan Yu sent him some spiritual energy, but he didn't respond.
When Jing Nan fell asleep, he gave people a particularly fragile feeling, it must be because he was all white, and his complexion was not very good recently, Du Heng gave him a lot of small fires, but he failed to make up his blood.
Du Heng is going to steam Jingnan's lotus leaf chicken today.In addition to the lotus leaf chicken, he also wanted to stew a few squabs for Jing Nan. Look at Jing Nan's face, he couldn't help it.
After closing the door, Du Heng asked Xuanyu suspiciously: "It is reasonable to say that a long tail is a good thing, it can make the Nine-Tails stronger. But why is the Nine-Tails so weak before the long tail?"
Xuanyu said: "Jing Nan's situation is quite special. He used to have more than half of his tail broken, and he almost died. Now every time a tail grows, it is a catastrophe. The higher the level of cultivation, the more difficult it is to cross the catastrophe. Jing Nan wants Only by gathering the aura of my whole body can I bear the pain."
It happened to be the moulting period, and it was hard to imagine what kind of torture Jing Nan was enduring now.But when Jing Nan wakes up, he always looks calm and breezy. When facing Du Heng, he can only be picky about whether it is delicious or not. Recently, he saw that Du Heng cooks chicken and duck. Not to mention.
To be honest, seeing Jing Nan like this made Du Heng feel distressed.
Xuanyu said softly to Du Heng: "Jing Nan is very strong, stronger than we imagined. When he survives this calamity, he will stand in front of you with a brand new attitude. You don't have to worry too much, do more for him What he loves to eat, he will be happy when he wakes up."
Du Heng thinks it makes sense, he can't help Jing Nan in practice, but he is good at making delicious food.
All the pigeons packed by Yunyan Tower were cleaned up, and the plump pigeons were almost reaching their age.Du Heng took eight pigeons and a young tender chicken, and he soaked them in clear water to remove the blood.
Xiaoxiao craned his neck to look at the pool: "Jiujiu?"
Du Heng touched Xiaoxiao's head, Xiaoxiao, who is a member of the Yu tribe, was not polite at all when eating chicken.Du Heng wasn't worried at all about Xiaoxiao's shadow when he saw the chicken soaked in the water. Xiaoxiao must be asking him what delicious food he was going to make right now.
Du Heng said with a smile: "Do you like to make lotus leaf chicken and stewed squab?" Xiaoxiao nodded his afterimage. Look, Du Heng will know.
Xuanyu took a wooden basin and put it on the eaves: "Do you want to wash the plums?"
Du Heng came out from the kitchen: "Yes, but these plums still need to be picked."
Due to neglect of management, the plums did not grow perfectly, and some plums had bug holes and scars on them.Du Heng needs to remove the plums with insect eyes, and separate the plums with heavy scars from the clean and intact plums.Injured plums can be used to make snacks, and only intact plums can be used to make wine.
With Xuanyu's help, the two quickly divided the plums into two baskets.The plums in a basket are green in color and complete in shape, with few or no bruises. Such plums can be used to make wine.The other basket has spots and it doesn't look very beautiful. After making snacks like this, the scars will not be visible.
The first thing to deal with is the plums that need to be soaked in wine. After the plums are washed for the first time, a salt bath is required.The salt-rubbed plums are much darker than their fluffy beginnings and look pleasing to the eye.
Du Heng and Xuan Yu washed it very carefully. They washed it three times to make sure that every plum was clean.After cleaning, the plums are round and green, soaked in the water, and they look very beautiful.
Xuan Yu said with a smile: "Plums rotted in the peach grove in the past, I didn't know that the color of plums is so beautiful after washing."
Du Heng said with a smile: "Each ingredient has its own uniqueness. After handling it properly, there will be people who appreciate it."

After the plums are cleaned, they cannot be fished out to make wine immediately, and they need to stay in clean water for an hour.Only after soaking can plums get rid of their astringency.
The smell of plums is very fragrant, Xiaoxiao walked around the washed plums, he couldn't help but ate one and it was slightly sour.Du Heng and Xuan Yu looked at the foolish Xiaoxiao and his stomach ached. Just now Xiaoxiao couldn't help being tempted to eat it once. He should have learned his lesson by then, why did he do it again?
Du Heng and the others then cleaned the bruised plums, which he planned to make into crispy plums, salted and candied plums.Crispy and candied plums can be used as snacks, while salted plums can be used to cook pork ribs.
The same treatment as the plums soaked in wine before, these bumped plums also need a salt bath.After that, the salted and candied plums also need to be soaked in a wooden basin for an hour to remove the astringency.The plums that make crispy plums are treated differently, and they require special massage techniques.
Du Heng moved out of Tianhu and said that from now on he will record the weight of the plums that make various snacks.
Just like making salted plums, he weighed two catties.The amount of salted plums is small, and four or five pieces are added to the pork ribs. The pork ribs are more fragrant with plums. Two catties of plums can make many pork ribs.
You can make more candied plums. The liquid exuded from candied plums after pickling is green plum juice, which can be used for drinking.Du Heng weighed 23 catties of green plums to make candied fruit. The remaining plums were the most. Du Heng weighed [-] catties.
He is going to use these plums to make crispy plums.Crispy plums are sour and sweet, Xiaoxiao will definitely like this. More than 20 catties of crispy plums will be gone in a short time for Xiaoxiao.
The process of making crispy plums is the most. For other kinds of plums, just wash the plums, add salt or sugar to them, and wait quietly.The crispy plums need to be crushed, soaked in salt water, soaked in sugar water...five or six processes.
Du Heng took out the chopping board, he picked up a prepared plum and put it on the chopping board.Just when Du Heng was about to shoot the green plums, he found that the green plums hadn't been removed yet.
Du Heng covered his face: "I forgot to pick out the fruit base. There is one more process." Xuan Yu smiled slightly: "It's a small thing."
With a flash of inspiration in Xuanyu's hand, the fruit stems of the plums fell to the ground, forming a patch of black dots.It is good to have aura, if before, Du Heng would need to use a toothpick to pick out the fruit stems one by one, which was time-consuming and laborious.
Du Heng gave Xuanyu a thumbs up: "Xiaoyu is really amazing." Xuanyu said slowly: "Sooner or later, you will be able to do the same."
Du Heng said with emotion: "Maybe it will take a while."
At least the current Du Heng has no way to control his aura so accurately. To remove the stems of more than 20 catties of green plums in an instant, it takes a powerful and accurate aura to do it. Dan above can do it?
The side of the kitchen knife hit the green plum with a snap, and the green plum was smashed to pieces by Du Heng.
Xuan Yu asked: "Do you need to smash them into pieces? Let me try."
Du Heng blushed: "No, no, just break their skins. I accidentally used too much force."
The poor plum meat turned into sauce, and the core inside was smashed by Du Heng. Du Heng looked at his hand, did he have such great strength before he knew it?
After several attempts, Du Heng finally found the right strength.He and Xuan Yu were each holding a kitchen knife and patting plums from the side.After a while Du Heng found the feeling, he took more than a dozen plums and put them on the chopping board, his aura pressed down, the plums cracked, the green juice splashed on the chopping board, a sour smell The smell wafted out.
Du Heng sighed: "It's better to use monk's method to do things quickly. How long will it take to shoot one by one?"
After the two of them smashed more than 20 catties of green plums, Du Heng brought out a clean wooden barrel.He poured the crushed plums into the barrel, and then poured the salt left over from rubbing the plums into the wooden barrel.The plums were covered with a thick layer of salt. Du Heng used spiritual energy to mix the salt and plums evenly, and then added water submerged in green plums into the wooden barrel.
Crispy plums need to be soaked in the salt water bath for the longest time, they need to soak for a day and a night.Otherwise, where does the crunchy and sweet taste come from?
Du Heng lifted the barrel to the courtyard, and he pressed a bamboo strip on it, and a plate was pressed on the bamboo strip, so that the plums could stay quietly in the salt water.
There are two large wooden basins in the yard, and a piece of green plums is soaked in the wooden basins.Du Heng and Xuan Yu were busy in the courtyard tacitly, and occasionally they could be heard talking.
The fragrance of plums all over the courtyard could not go away, Xuan Yu stretched out his hand and smelled it: "My hands are already smelling of plums."
Du Heng was happy, he hugged Xuanyu: "Then our Xiaoyu tastes like plums today~"
After the process of pressing crispy plums, it didn’t take long for the plums in the wooden basin to be soaked almost.Du Heng fished out the plums in the two wooden basins. The plums can't be used directly. They still need to be dried, and they still can't be dried in the sun.
Xuanyu made two bamboo stalks, he put the plums in the two bamboo stalks, and then carried the bamboo stalks into the kitchen.Open the back window of the kitchen, and the kitchen is ventilated on both sides.This is exactly the place for shade-dried prunes.
Drying plums in the shade takes time, so don't be in a hurry.The fruit stems on these plums have not been removed, Du Heng smiled and said to Xuan Yu: "I'm going to make lunch, you are tired, please help me to pick out the fruit stems of the plums."
Xuan Yu looked at Du Heng with a smile, and he pointed to his face.Du Heng looked around, only to see Xiaoxiao ran out to play, and he quickly kissed Xuanyu on the cheek.
Xuan Yu returned a kiss to Du Heng, and his eyes were full of smiles: "Obey, my lord, I will do what you say, and I will do it."
Du Heng blushed and went to the pool to deal with the pigeons. With Xuan Yu by his side, he couldn't help being lazy.
Du Heng pinned the pigeon's head under its wings, and cut twice at the joints of the pigeon's legs, so that the two legs could be easily stuffed into the pigeon's belly by him.The treated pigeon looks much more pleasing to the eye than the previous one with its teeth and claws flailing.
Put cold water into the pot, and Du Heng put the pigeons into the pot one by one to blanch.Taking advantage of the blanching time, he took out the casserole at home and rinsed it for a while.
Du Heng doesn't like to put too many ingredients in the stewed pigeon. He only plans to add a few goji berries and red dates to enhance the taste, and he doesn't plan to add other mushrooms and spring bamboo shoots.The pigeon is nourishing, he doesn't want to add other ingredients to spoil the taste, and later he wants Jing Nan to drink three bowls of soup beautifully to make up for it.
After the pigeons were blanched, Du Heng stuffed a jujube and a few goji berries into the stomachs of the pigeons, and then placed the pigeons neatly in the casserole.He added scallions, ginger slices and cooking wine to the pot, and then added water that had submerged the pigeons.
The casserole was simmering on the stove for half an hour, and a little salt was added before starting the pot. This kind of soup had the original flavor, which would definitely help Jing Nan.
The stewed squab just needs to be boiled slowly. In the next time, Du Heng is going to make lotus leaf chicken.The lotus leaves picked from Nanshan have been dried, and now they are perfect for making lotus leaf chicken.
Du Heng rubbed a layer of fine salt on the chicken, and he carefully massaged the chicken for the time of a cup of tea, so that the fine salt can add more flavor.While massaging, he also poked dense holes in the chicken skin with a bamboo stick.Seeing Du Heng stabbing the chicken with a bamboo stick, he backed away with a smile, for fear that Du Heng would stab him with a backhand.
After the salt is applied, the chicken is also covered with a layer of five-spice powder and white wine.After wiping the chicken this time, Du Heng stuffed the chicken head under the chicken wings, and stuffed the chicken legs into the chicken belly.The processed chicken is like a meat dumpling, so that after wrapping the chicken with lotus leaves, the chicken paws will not puncture the lotus leaves.
Many people only stuff a few shiitake mushrooms or red dates into the belly of the chicken when making lotus leaf chicken, but Du Heng likes to stuff it with two handfuls of soaked Lingmi.The rice is mixed with diced shiitake mushrooms and lean meat. After the chicken is steamed, the rice in the belly will also absorb the soup, which is very delicious.
The lingmi would swell when it was steamed, and in case they would come out from the chicken butt, Du Heng sewed two seams on the butt with a thin bamboo stick.Then he wrapped three layers of lotus leaves on the outside of the chicken skin. The lotus leaves had been soaked in warm water beforehand to soften them.They are not as crisp and tender as fresh lotus leaves, but have more toughness.
The lotus leaf is as big as the brim of a hat, just enough to wrap the chicken inside.Outside, Du Heng tied up the lotus leaves and chicken with leaves of chinensis, then he put the chicken in a steamer and placed it on the upstairs terrace.
Seeing Du Heng running to the terrace again, Xuanyu said: "I want to talk to the craftsman of Wan Workshop, let them add a layer of formations to the refrigerator, so that you don't have to go up and down for this thing .”
Du Heng thought of the craftsman in Wan Workshop, and he said with a smile: "Last time I frightened him a lot, if I bother him for such a trivial matter this time, I'm afraid he will run away when he sees the two of us next time." far away."
Xuanyu smiled slightly: "No. Just adding an accelerated formation, the problem shouldn't be too big. If it doesn't work, you can make a smaller refrigerator."
After thinking for a while, Du Heng made a request: "Then...I want a refrigerator that can be refrigerated, that is...the kind that can cool hot food without freezing it."
Xuan Yu smiled and said: "Okay, next time we go to Lingxi Town, we will go to Wan Workshop again."

When Jing Nan woke up, he was a little groggy.He remembered that he was talking to Xiaoyu before, why did he sleep on the bed after waking up?And this is not the pattern of Feng Guijia, is it?Isn't this the guest room of Xiaoyu's house?
At this moment, the door opened slightly, and Du Heng's head stuck out from the crack of the door.Seeing that Jing Nan woke up, Du Heng smiled: "Wake up, let's have lunch. I made stewed pigeon and lotus leaf chicken for you at noon today."
Jing Nan lay on the bed and looked at Du Heng with a smile: "Why are you so enthusiastic about me all of a sudden? I'm not used to it yet."
Du Heng walked to the window and opened the curtains to let in air: "Our Nannan needs to be taken care of recently."
Hearing the word Nan Nan, Jing Nan's body froze suddenly, and he immediately came back to his senses: "Oh, Xiaoyu taught you, didn't you?" He actually called him Nan Nan, and no one in this world called him that except Qing Heng. .
Du Heng smiled and said: "What? Get up quickly, let me tell you, today's stewed pigeon soup is very delicious, if you don't get up and smile, I will drink it for you."
Jing Nan lifted the quilt: "Oh, then I have to hurry up, that little guy's speed is too fast, if he is late, he will really drink it for me." The moment he got out of bed, Jing Nan's knees rolled Soft, he staggered and was about to fall forward.
Du Heng stepped forward to support Jing Nan: "Are you okay? Xuanyu, Xuanyu!"
Hearing Du Heng's call, Xuan Yu appeared soon.He poured some spiritual energy into Jing Nan's knees.Jing Nan sat helplessly on the edge of the bed, and he complained: "Aren't you two? I just have a tail, and you two treat me like a seriously ill patient."
Xuan Yu knelt on the ground with one knee, and he kneaded Jing Nan's knees with both hands: "From today on, you can live here, anyway, the big family can live there. Besides, Xiaoxiao is here, it's good for everyone to be together There is a follow-up."
Jing Nan was even more helpless: "It's not that serious, is it?"
Xuan Yu nodded: "Yes." There are some things he doesn't want to tell Du Heng for fear that he will be worried. When Jing Nan had the sixth tail last time, he and Feng Gui nearly killed half their lives.
The situation this time will only be more serious than last time. Before the official moulting season and the official long tail, Jing Nan's reaction is already so big.When that day comes, I don't know what's going on with Jing Nan.
Xuan Yu said slowly: "I am going to send a message to Feng Gui to let him come back, the two of us will guard you."
Jing Nan waved his hand: "It's okay, it's okay, don't bother. The less people know about this, the better. There are many people in Fenggui. If you call him back suddenly, there may be some trouble."
Xuanyu thought for a while and said, "That's okay, I'll fix the barrier in the village starting today, and I'll call Lao Dao again when the time comes. With so many people guarding it, it shouldn't be a big problem."
Jing Nan turned to look at Du Heng: "You can take care of Xiaoyu, since you came, he has become more and more verbose. I didn't find him so cautious before."
Du Heng spread his hands: "Don't look at me, I'm just a little foundation builder, all I can do is cook delicious food for you."
Jing Nan waited for a while before standing up. He brushed his long hair: "Hey, why do I feel like I'm a paraplegic when something happens suddenly? Look at how cautious you all are."
Looking to the left, Xuan Yu supported his hand, and looking to the right, Du Heng supported his waist.Thinking of how Jinnan was still walking like flying in half a month, no one would pay attention to him, who would have thought that after half a month, he would become a sick beauty?
In the village, Xiaoxiao was probably the only little guy who didn't care about Jing Nan's hair-changing long tail, and he wished Jing Nan could shed more hair.He has already collected more than half of the nine-tailed hair in his treasure chest. In the future, these hairs can be exchanged for a lot of spirit stones in Wan Workshop, and he can buy a lot of delicious food!
Jing Nan sat on the chair and looked at the several dishes in front of him. He raised his eyebrows: "Wow, it's really rich."
The fat pigeons in the casserole were round and round one by one. Du Heng filled a big bowl of soup for Jing Nan, and there was a whole pigeon in the soup: "Jing Nan, drink more soup."
After the pigeon soup is stewed, it is very clear, with a thin layer of golden oil floating on it.Du Heng did not use the method of stewing old hen soup to stew pigeons. The pigeon soup stewed on a low fire is the most nourishing, and it will melt from the mouth to the heart after taking a sip.
In fact, the taste of pigeon soup is similar to that of hen soup, except that pigeon is not as fatty as hen, and the stewed soup is very light.After taking a few sips of soup, Jing Nan turned his attention to the pigeons in the bowl. He didn't know how long he had slept, all he knew was that the pigeons in the bowl had been stewed for a long time.
The outer skin of the pigeon looks complete, but as long as you touch it lightly with chopsticks, the skin and bones will fall apart.Even the neck, which has the most bones, broke when it hit the chopsticks.The most essential piece of meat of the pigeon is on the belly, and Jing Nan easily picked off two pieces of meat from the belly with a pair of chopsticks.
Du Heng looked at Jing Nan expectantly: "Is it delicious?"
Jing Nan ate the pigeon meat slowly. The pigeon meat had been stewed to the point of melting in the mouth. The young pigeon was already tender, and even the bones could be chewed and swallowed.Jing Nan stretched out her thumb with a smile: "It's perfect, delicious."
Hearing this answer, Du Heng was relieved.He scooped up a pigeon for Xiaoxiao and Xuanyu: "Eat slowly, don't burn it."
Xiaoxiao's eyes were shining, and he drank the soup quite politely at first.But when he finished the soup in the bowl, he ate the whole squab in one gulp, and then threw his head on the table and spit out a pile of bare bones.
Du Heng was dumbfounded. When will he learn the bone-spitting move of Xiaoxiao?This is too easy, right?
Just thinking about it, Xuanyu tore off a piece of soft meat from the pigeon breast and handed it to Du Heng's lips: "It's delicious, you should try it too."
Du Heng was not polite either, he opened his mouth and ate the meat.The squab was originally fresh and tender, and the meat was not bad at all. In addition, Du Heng seasoned it properly, even with just a little salt, the taste was incomparably delicious.
Du Heng was chewing on the pigeon meat, and he lifted the steamer on the dining table.The lotus-leaf chicken is placed in the steamer, and the lotus-leaf chicken is still tied with the leaves of Zhulong grass.The steamed lotus leaves have turned yellowish brown, no longer green at the beginning.But their essence has been incorporated into the chicken inside, as evidenced by the tangy fragrance.
Xuanyu helped Du Heng untie the grass rope on the lotus leaf. After Du Heng uncovered the top lotus leaf, a lotus leaf chicken with yellow orange and orange oil lay quietly between the two layers of lotus leaves. between.When Du Heng steamed the chicken, the belly of the chicken was facing the sky. Now they saw two fat and tender chicken legs facing the sky. The whole chicken looked very round.
After uncovering the lotus leaf, the aroma of the chicken mixed with the fragrance of the lotus leaf and the fragrance of Lingmi came oncoming.Du Heng stretched out his hand and pulled the bamboo stick used to bind the chicken's buttocks, and a few grains of fragrant steamed rice rolled out of the chicken's belly.
Jing Nan raised his eyebrows: "Hey, is there rice in the chicken belly?"
Du Heng nodded: "Yes, I like to put some soaked Lingmi in the chicken belly, so that the taste of the rice will be particularly good, I will serve you some." Before Jing Nan could speak, he stood up and picked it up. He took Jing Nan's bowl, and then dug two spoonfuls of Ling rice into the bowl.
Usually, Xiaoxiao is the only one who can get such service from Du Heng, and Jing Nan is always envious of Xiaoxiao's treatment.In the end, when it was his turn to receive this treatment, Jing Nan suspected that his life would not be long.
Jing Nan took the bowl from Du Heng with both hands: "Actually... I have pretty good hands and feet." He can move by himself.
Du Heng said with a smile: "there is not much rice in the chicken belly, let's share a few bites." As he spoke, he put two spoonfuls of rice in Xiaoxiao's bowl, and finally picked up Xuanyu's bowl.
The rice in the chicken belly is mixed with diced meat and shiitake mushrooms. The rice grains that have absorbed the essence of the whole chicken are clearly oily, and it smells delicious when you smell it.After Xiaoxiao took a bite of the rice, Xuanyu tweeted a few words, "Xiaoxiao said, this rice tastes better than the rice you fried before. But he still likes rice with salted meat and vegetables."
Du Heng thought for a while: "That's fine, how about I make you rice with bacon and vegetables tomorrow?"
Nodding with a smile and chirping, he likes eating rice with bacon and vegetables so much. With bone soup, he can eat five bowls of rice!
The lotus leaf chicken was steamed so soft, Du Heng wanted to break the chicken into big pieces, but when he pulled the chicken leg, the bone on the chicken leg was pulled out by him.As soon as Xuanyu's hand turned, the chicken was divided into several large pieces.
One of the two chicken legs was given to Jing Nan and the other to Xiao Xiao.There is a chicken wing in each of Du Heng's and Xuan Yu's bowls.
Jing Nan gnawed on the chicken leg: "Mmm! It's delicious! So the lotus leaf can be used in this way? There is a clear fragrance in this meat, and it's not greasy at all." Not only is it not greasy, the taste of the chicken is also very good, not salty or not Light, tender and delicious.
Du Heng said: "If you like, I'll make more and put them in the refrigerator. When you want to eat, you can take it yourself."
Jing Nan was flattered: "Oh, I'm so touched. Xiaoyu, aren't you jealous?"
Xuan Yu glanced at Jing Nan: "Do you think I have the same heart as you?" Xuan Yu shot a lore, Jing Nan didn't want to talk, just wanted to spend a while with Xuan Yu's friend.
In addition to making pigeon soup and lotus leaf chicken today, Du Heng also fried a bowl of mushrooms and vegetables.The small green vegetables in his vegetable garden are finally edible. Green vegetables that are only two inches long are the most suitable for making soup, but today there is pigeon soup, so Du Heng cut two shiitake mushrooms and mixed them together for frying.
Jing Nan and Xiaoxiao were eating meat, while Xuan Yu and Du Heng were eating mushrooms and fried vegetables.Seeing how delicious the two of them ate, he smiled and tweeted to Du Heng hesitantly, he also wanted to try the taste of mushrooms and vegetables.
Du Heng picked up a chopstick of vegetables in Xiaoxiao's bowl, and Xiaoxiao took a bite expectantly, but he soon turned his head in doubt.
Isn't this a smell of grass?Is it that delicious?The meat is still delicious!
The author has something to say: Jing Nan: Xiaoyu, are you not jealous?Du Heng has been taking special care of me recently.
Xuan Yu: Do you think my heart is the same as yours?
Jing Nan: Tsk, what a big boobs?Who doesn't have chest muscles yet!
Du Heng: ...Where did this topic go?
Nan Nan will be sick for a while, and likes to speed up the beauty of the sick, after all, the first growth
The pork slice soup that Du Heng is going to make is very simple. He has tasted this soup once, and it feels very convenient and light.Just dip the thinly sliced meat in starch and flatten it with the back of a knife or rolling pin.
A palm-sized piece of meat is knocked thin, and when unfolded, it will become two or three times as big as before.Then add water to the pot, put salt and a few drops of soybean oil. After the water boils, put the hammered meat slices into the boiling water one by one.As long as the soup in the pot is boiled again, it can be out of the pot!
Sprinkle a little white pepper powder and monosodium glutamate before serving, it is fresh and tender, the old people and children like this taste.
Du Heng hammered the meat slices evenly and quickly on the chopping board. Hammering the meat slices does not require much strength. What he needs is to hammer the meat slices into thin slices, not to hammer them into puree.Du Heng only cut more than [-] pieces of front leg meat, but after he hammered it, the meat slices piled up on the chopping board seemed to be several times larger than the meat he cut.
This is all thanks to the starch!Du Heng picked up a piece of meat that was stained with starch, and he made a gesture. After the piece of meat was hammered open, it was about the size of Xiaoxiao's face.
The water in the pot boiled, Du Heng threw the meat slices into the pot one by one, and then gently cut them apart with chopsticks.The water in the pot immediately became cloudy, and the meat slices were also covered with a layer of crystal starch coagulation.
When the water boiled, he threw the lily petals in Shau Kei into the pot.The petals become soft when they meet hot water, and the water in the pot boils after a while.Du Heng sprinkled a little mushroom essence to taste, and the soup was delicious.
He took out a large bowl and put the sliced meat soup in the bowl.The dishes he cooks are all home-cooked, without too many decorations, but they look real.
The meat slice soup tastes good, and everyone feels good about the meat slices.But the lily petals become soft and rotten after being boiled, and it tastes slightly bitter and a little greasy.This taste...not everyone likes it very much.
Du Heng felt that the lilies in the courtyard of Jing Nan's house could not be sold, so it was better to cut them honestly and arrange them.Or there is a problem with his craftsmanship. If he can know how to eat flowers, maybe the meat slice soup will taste better.
But to cook food is to move forward in the process of constant overturning.Which cook has never stepped on a pit? Facing unfamiliar ingredients, it is normal to overturn the car.
Time passed by little by little, these few days Du Heng worked hard to practice cooking, and in a blink of an eye it was the day of Lixia.Wen Qiong was about to leave the village and go home.
Du Heng packed food for Wen Qiong to take away in the refrigerator. He knew that Wen Qiong liked to eat sweets and leftovers. He made a lot of chicken feet and duck necks in the past few days, and he packed a full one for Wen Qiong. The storage bag really couldn't fit in it, so he made a small backpack for her and stuffed it in it.
Wen Qiong was wearing a bright red dress today, and she was wearing the same color when she came to the village, but when she came, the village was covered with snow.Now that she is gone, Ling Zhi in the village has grown taller than her.
The little butterfly hairpin on Wen Qiong's head shone in the sun, her eyes were big and round, and when she smiled, two dimples were revealed.When she smiled at Du Heng, Du Heng's eyes were slightly red.
I don't know when I will see Wen Qiong after this trip, Du Heng handed the storage bag in his hand to Wen Qiong: "Master, the storage bag is filled with your favorite things, Xuanyu help me strengthen it." If you leave the formation on the storage bag, it can be stored for a month at most."
He handed the finished small backpack to Wen Qiong: "You can eat the food in the backpack on the road. There is no formation in it, and the storage time is a bit short. You should try to eat it in the next two days."
Wen Qiong put the storage bag in her sleeve with a smile, and then put on a nondescript small backpack.She said crisply: "Thank you, apprentice. I will eat these things properly as a teacher. After the teacher leaves, you have to practice hard. You are about to form an alchemy. Remember not to be careless. There is no shortcut to practice. You can't slack off even if the teacher is not by your side."
Wen Qiong said this to Du Heng hundreds of times, and Du Heng's ears almost grew calluses.But now that Wen Qiong is about to leave, Du Heng felt sour after hearing these words: "Disciple, remember."
Wen Qiong patted Du Heng's shoulder with a smile: "The parting is for a better encounter. I hope that when we meet again next time, you will already be a mature and reliable monk!"
After taking care of Du Heng, Wen Qiong formally saluted Jing Nan and Xuan Yu.Wen Qiong said to Jing Nan: "My lords, thank you for your care during this time."
Jing Nan smiled and said, "We are the ones who caused trouble for Xiao Qiong. We knew you were busy and called you here. After we go back, we will continue to tire you to run around for our affairs."
Wen Qiong smiled and said: "It should be, Wen Qiong's life is given by everyone. It should be done for such a small thing."
Xuan Yu returned a salute to Wen Qiong: "Thank you, Xiao Qiong." Wen Qiong narrowed his eyes: "Master Xuan, you asked me to teach Du Heng. Although I didn't spend long with him, as a disciple, he I admit it. If there is a chance in the future, I will introduce him to my other disciples."
Xuan Yu nodded: "Thank you Xiao Qiong for planning for Du Heng."
Wen Qiong looked at Du Heng with a smile: "If there is a chance to see you again in the future, I will bring your five senior brothers and sisters to see you. Don't forget to cook a table of delicious food for them then."
Du Heng nodded: "Disciple remembers."
Wen Qiong's eyes fell on Xiaoxiao, and she suddenly smiled treacherously: "Xiaofengjun, can I hug you?" Xiaoxiao stretched out her wings to Wen Qiong, and Wen Qiong hugged you with a cry. Stopped smiling, she kissed and smiled several times: "Mr. Xiaofeng is so cute~~"
When Wen Qiong kissed enough, she bowed to everyone contentedly: "Wen Qiong, please take care of yourself."
Everyone stood at the entrance of the village and watched Wen Qiong's figure gradually become smaller, and she left.As silent as she came.
After Wen Qiong left, the village became even more deserted.There are only four people in the village, Du Heng can't imagine, before he came to the village, there were only Xuan Yu and Jing Nan smiling, how did the three of them live?
I'm afraid that if I say a word, no one will respond for a long time, right?How lonely must that be?
People, excitement is temporary, you have to learn to enjoy loneliness.Even if there is only one person, you should live a good life.
Since Wen Qiong left, time has lost its meaning to Du Heng. Every day when he opens his eyes, he repeats his practice and cooking for everyone.As the days flowed slowly like running water, Du Heng's vegetable field expanded little by little, and he planted more and more vegetables.
After the beginning of summer, the temperature gradually increased. The pumpkins transplanted by Du Heng before slowly stretched out their vines, and some impatient pumpkins even bloomed yellow flowers.
The life in the village is still going on step by step. If it were someone else, they would definitely feel that the life in the village was monotonous and depressing, but Du Heng didn't feel that way.With Xuan Yu and Jing Nan around, Du Heng felt that his life was more fulfilling and more comfortable. He left more and more traces in the village, and he discovered more and more fun every day.
Two days ago, he went to Lingxi Town with Xuanyu and Xiaoxiao, and this time he bought a lot of pots and jars.After returning, pickles were soaked in his jar.He soaked peppers and sour bamboo shoots in the jar, and when there were beans in two days, he could put the beans into the kimchi jar.
Du Heng looked at the crisp plums in the peach grove, they were ready to be picked.He specially bought several jars of soaking wine, just for the plums in the forest.
The plums are only bigger than the thumb, each one is green and oily, and it is slightly sour and astringent after a bite.Du Heng carefully picked the plums off the tree with a smile. There were quite a lot of plums, and a basket full of plums was picked from one tree.
When Du Heng returned to the courtyard with the basket on his back, he happened to see Xuan Yu coming out of Fenggui's house with Jing Nan in his arms.Jing Nan has become more and more lethargic recently, and sometimes he would fall down with a thump when he was talking properly.
Du Heng asked worriedly: "Fall asleep again?"
Xuan Yu nodded: "Yeah, I thought about it, let Jing Nan live downstairs in our house first? It's good for everyone to be together. His current situation is not suitable for living alone."
Du Heng put down the pannier, went to the guest room and helped Jing Nan put on a new sheet, Xuan Yu put Jing Nan on the bed carefully.Jing Nan was completely unconscious, and Xuan Yu sent him some spiritual energy, but he didn't respond.
When Jing Nan fell asleep, he gave people a particularly fragile feeling, it must be because he was all white, and his complexion was not very good recently, Du Heng gave him a lot of small fires, but he failed to make up his blood.
Du Heng is going to steam Jingnan's lotus leaf chicken today.In addition to the lotus leaf chicken, he also wanted to stew a few squabs for Jing Nan. Look at Jing Nan's face, he couldn't help it.
After closing the door, Du Heng asked Xuanyu suspiciously: "It is reasonable to say that a long tail is a good thing, it can make the Nine-Tails stronger. But why is the Nine-Tails so weak before the long tail?"
Xuanyu said: "Jing Nan's situation is quite special. He used to have more than half of his tail broken, and he almost died. Now every time a tail grows, it is a catastrophe. The higher the level of cultivation, the more difficult it is to cross the catastrophe. Jing Nan wants Only by gathering the aura of my whole body can I bear the pain."
It happened to be the moulting period, and it was hard to imagine what kind of torture Jing Nan was enduring now.But when Jing Nan wakes up, he always looks calm and breezy. When facing Du Heng, he can only be picky about whether it is delicious or not. Recently, he saw that Du Heng cooks chicken and duck. Not to mention.
To be honest, seeing Jing Nan like this made Du Heng feel distressed.
Xuanyu said softly to Du Heng: "Jing Nan is very strong, stronger than we imagined. When he survives this calamity, he will stand in front of you with a brand new attitude. You don't have to worry too much, do more for him What he loves to eat, he will be happy when he wakes up."
Du Heng thinks it makes sense, he can't help Jing Nan in practice, but he is good at making delicious food.
All the pigeons packed by Yunyan Tower were cleaned up, and the plump pigeons were almost reaching their age.Du Heng took eight pigeons and a young tender chicken, and he soaked them in clear water to remove the blood.
Xiaoxiao craned his neck to look at the pool: "Jiujiu?"
Du Heng touched Xiaoxiao's head, Xiaoxiao, who is a member of the Yu tribe, was not polite at all when eating chicken.Du Heng wasn't worried at all about Xiaoxiao's shadow when he saw the chicken soaked in the water. Xiaoxiao must be asking him what delicious food he was going to make right now.
Du Heng said with a smile: "Do you like to make lotus leaf chicken and stewed squab?" Xiaoxiao nodded his afterimage. Look, Du Heng will know.
Xuanyu took a wooden basin and put it on the eaves: "Do you want to wash the plums?"
Du Heng came out from the kitchen: "Yes, but these plums still need to be picked."
Due to neglect of management, the plums did not grow perfectly, and some plums had bug holes and scars on them.Du Heng needs to remove the plums with insect eyes, and separate the plums with heavy scars from the clean and intact plums.Injured plums can be used to make snacks, and only intact plums can be used to make wine.
With Xuanyu's help, the two quickly divided the plums into two baskets.The plums in a basket are green in color and complete in shape, with few or no bruises. Such plums can be used to make wine.The other basket has spots and it doesn't look very beautiful. After making snacks like this, the scars will not be visible.
The first thing to deal with is the plums that need to be soaked in wine. After the plums are washed for the first time, a salt bath is required.The salt-rubbed plums are much darker than their fluffy beginnings and look pleasing to the eye.
Du Heng and Xuan Yu washed it very carefully. They washed it three times to make sure that every plum was clean.After cleaning, the plums are round and green, soaked in the water, and they look very beautiful.
Xuan Yu said with a smile: "Plums rotted in the peach grove in the past, I didn't know that the color of plums is so beautiful after washing."
Du Heng said with a smile: "Each ingredient has its own uniqueness. After handling it properly, there will be people who appreciate it."
179
After the plums are cleaned, they cannot be fished out to make wine immediately, and they need to stay in clean water for an hour.Only after soaking can plums get rid of their astringency.
The smell of plums is very fragrant, Xiaoxiao walked around the washed plums, he couldn't help but ate one and it was slightly sour.Du Heng and Xuan Yu looked at the foolish Xiaoxiao and his stomach ached. Just now Xiaoxiao couldn't help being tempted to eat it once. He should have learned his lesson by then, why did he do it again?
Du Heng and the others then cleaned the bruised plums, which he planned to make into crispy plums, salted and candied plums.Crispy and candied plums can be used as snacks, while salted plums can be used to cook pork ribs.
The same treatment as the plums soaked in wine before, these bumped plums also need a salt bath.After that, the salted and candied plums also need to be soaked in a wooden basin for an hour to remove the astringency.The plums that make crispy plums are treated differently, and they require special massage techniques.
Du Heng moved out of Tianhu and said that from now on he will record the weight of the plums that make various snacks.
Just like making salted plums, he weighed two catties.The amount of salted plums is small, and four or five pieces are added to the pork ribs. The pork ribs are more fragrant with plums. Two catties of plums can make many pork ribs.
You can make more candied plums. The liquid exuded from candied plums after pickling is green plum juice, which can be used for drinking.Du Heng weighed 23 catties of green plums to make candied fruit. The remaining plums were the most. Du Heng weighed [-] catties.
He is going to use these plums to make crispy plums.Crispy plums are sour and sweet, Xiaoxiao will definitely like this. More than 20 catties of crispy plums will be gone in a short time for Xiaoxiao.
The process of making crispy plums is the most. For other kinds of plums, just wash the plums, add salt or sugar to them, and wait quietly.The crispy plums need to be crushed, soaked in salt water, soaked in sugar water...five or six processes.
Du Heng took out the chopping board, he picked up a prepared plum and put it on the chopping board.Just when Du Heng was about to shoot the green plums, he found that the green plums hadn't been removed yet.
Du Heng covered his face: "I forgot to pick out the fruit base. There is one more process." Xuan Yu smiled slightly: "It's a small thing."
With a flash of inspiration in Xuanyu's hand, the fruit stems of the plums fell to the ground, forming a patch of black dots.It is good to have aura, if before, Du Heng would need to use a toothpick to pick out the fruit stems one by one, which was time-consuming and laborious.
Du Heng gave Xuanyu a thumbs up: "Xiaoyu is really amazing." Xuanyu said slowly: "Sooner or later, you will be able to do the same."
Du Heng said with emotion: "Maybe it will take a while."
At least the current Du Heng has no way to control his aura so accurately. To remove the stems of more than 20 catties of green plums in an instant, it takes a powerful and accurate aura to do it. Dan above can do it?
The side of the kitchen knife hit the green plum with a snap, and the green plum was smashed to pieces by Du Heng.
Xuan Yu asked: "Do you need to smash them into pieces? Let me try."
Du Heng blushed: "No, no, just break their skins. I accidentally used too much force."
The poor plum meat turned into sauce, and the core inside was smashed by Du Heng. Du Heng looked at his hand, did he have such great strength before he knew it?
After several attempts, Du Heng finally found the right strength.He and Xuan Yu were each holding a kitchen knife and patting plums from the side.After a while Du Heng found the feeling, he took more than a dozen plums and put them on the chopping board, his aura pressed down, the plums cracked, the green juice splashed on the chopping board, a sour smell The smell wafted out.
Du Heng sighed: "It's better to use monk's method to do things quickly. How long will it take to shoot one by one?"
After the two of them smashed more than 20 catties of green plums, Du Heng brought out a clean wooden barrel.He poured the crushed plums into the barrel, and then poured the salt left over from rubbing the plums into the wooden barrel.The plums were covered with a thick layer of salt. Du Heng used spiritual energy to mix the salt and plums evenly, and then added water submerged in green plums into the wooden barrel.
Crispy plums need to be soaked in the salt water bath for the longest time, they need to soak for a day and a night.Otherwise, where does the crunchy and sweet taste come from?
Du Heng lifted the barrel to the courtyard, and he pressed a bamboo strip on it, and a plate was pressed on the bamboo strip, so that the plums could stay quietly in the salt water.
There are two large wooden basins in the yard, and a piece of green plums is soaked in the wooden basins.Du Heng and Xuan Yu were busy in the courtyard tacitly, and occasionally they could be heard talking.
The fragrance of plums all over the courtyard could not go away, Xuan Yu stretched out his hand and smelled it: "My hands are already smelling of plums."
Du Heng was happy, he hugged Xuanyu: "Then our Xiaoyu tastes like plums today~"
After the process of pressing crispy plums, it didn’t take long for the plums in the wooden basin to be soaked almost.Du Heng fished out the plums in the two wooden basins. The plums can't be used directly. They still need to be dried, and they still can't be dried in the sun.
Xuanyu made two bamboo stalks, he put the plums in the two bamboo stalks, and then carried the bamboo stalks into the kitchen.Open the back window of the kitchen, and the kitchen is ventilated on both sides.This is exactly the place for shade-dried prunes.
Drying plums in the shade takes time, so don't be in a hurry.The fruit stems on these plums have not been removed, Du Heng smiled and said to Xuan Yu: "I'm going to make lunch, you are tired, please help me to pick out the fruit stems of the plums."
Xuan Yu looked at Du Heng with a smile, and he pointed to his face.Du Heng looked around, only to see Xiaoxiao ran out to play, and he quickly kissed Xuanyu on the cheek.
Xuan Yu returned a kiss to Du Heng, and his eyes were full of smiles: "Obey, my lord, I will do what you say, and I will do it."
Du Heng blushed and went to the pool to deal with the pigeons. With Xuan Yu by his side, he couldn't help being lazy.
Du Heng pinned the pigeon's head under its wings, and cut twice at the joints of the pigeon's legs, so that the two legs could be easily stuffed into the pigeon's belly by him.The treated pigeon looks much more pleasing to the eye than the previous one with its teeth and claws flailing.
Put cold water into the pot, and Du Heng put the pigeons into the pot one by one to blanch.Taking advantage of the blanching time, he took out the casserole at home and rinsed it for a while.
Du Heng doesn't like to put too many ingredients in the stewed pigeon. He only plans to add a few goji berries and red dates to enhance the taste, and he doesn't plan to add other mushrooms and spring bamboo shoots.The pigeon is nourishing, he doesn't want to add other ingredients to spoil the taste, and later he wants Jing Nan to drink three bowls of soup beautifully to make up for it.
After the pigeons were blanched, Du Heng stuffed a jujube and a few goji berries into the stomachs of the pigeons, and then placed the pigeons neatly in the casserole.He added scallions, ginger slices and cooking wine to the pot, and then added water that had submerged the pigeons.
The casserole was simmering on the stove for half an hour, and a little salt was added before starting the pot. This kind of soup had the original flavor, which would definitely help Jing Nan.
The stewed squab just needs to be boiled slowly. In the next time, Du Heng is going to make lotus leaf chicken.The lotus leaves picked from Nanshan have been dried, and now they are perfect for making lotus leaf chicken.
Du Heng rubbed a layer of fine salt on the chicken, and he carefully massaged the chicken for the time of a cup of tea, so that the fine salt can add more flavor.While massaging, he also poked dense holes in the chicken skin with a bamboo stick.Seeing Du Heng stabbing the chicken with a bamboo stick, he backed away with a smile, for fear that Du Heng would stab him with a backhand.
After the salt is applied, the chicken is also covered with a layer of five-spice powder and white wine.After wiping the chicken this time, Du Heng stuffed the chicken head under the chicken wings, and stuffed the chicken legs into the chicken belly.The processed chicken is like a meat dumpling, so that after wrapping the chicken with lotus leaves, the chicken paws will not puncture the lotus leaves.
Many people only stuff a few shiitake mushrooms or red dates into the belly of the chicken when making lotus leaf chicken, but Du Heng likes to stuff it with two handfuls of soaked Lingmi.The rice is mixed with diced shiitake mushrooms and lean meat. After the chicken is steamed, the rice in the belly will also absorb the soup, which is very delicious.
The lingmi would swell when it was steamed, and in case they would come out from the chicken butt, Du Heng sewed two seams on the butt with a thin bamboo stick.Then he wrapped three layers of lotus leaves on the outside of the chicken skin. The lotus leaves had been soaked in warm water beforehand to soften them.They are not as crisp and tender as fresh lotus leaves, but have more toughness.
The lotus leaf is as big as the brim of a hat, just enough to wrap the chicken inside.Outside, Du Heng tied up the lotus leaves and chicken with leaves of chinensis, then he put the chicken in a steamer and placed it on the upstairs terrace.
Seeing Du Heng running to the terrace again, Xuanyu said: "I want to talk to the craftsman of Wan Workshop, let them add a layer of formations to the refrigerator, so that you don't have to go up and down for this thing .”
Du Heng thought of the craftsman in Wan Workshop, and he said with a smile: "Last time I frightened him a lot, if I bother him for such a trivial matter this time, I'm afraid he will run away when he sees the two of us next time." far away."
Xuanyu smiled slightly: "No. Just adding an accelerated formation, the problem shouldn't be too big. If it doesn't work, you can make a smaller refrigerator."
After thinking for a while, Du Heng made a request: "Then...I want a refrigerator that can be refrigerated, that is...the kind that can cool hot food without freezing it."
Xuan Yu smiled and said: "Okay, next time we go to Lingxi Town, we will go to Wan Workshop again."

When Jing Nan woke up, he was a little groggy.He remembered that he was talking to Xiaoyu before, why did he sleep on the bed after waking up?And this is not the pattern of Feng Guijia, is it?Isn't this the guest room of Xiaoyu's house?
At this moment, the door opened slightly, and Du Heng's head stuck out from the crack of the door.Seeing that Jing Nan woke up, Du Heng smiled: "Wake up, let's have lunch. I made stewed pigeon and lotus leaf chicken for you at noon today."
Jing Nan lay on the bed and looked at Du Heng with a smile: "Why are you so enthusiastic about me all of a sudden? I'm not used to it yet."
Du Heng walked to the window and opened the curtains to let in air: "Our Nannan needs to be taken care of recently."
Hearing the word Nan Nan, Jing Nan's body froze suddenly, and he immediately came back to his senses: "Oh, Xiaoyu taught you, didn't you?" He actually called him Nan Nan, and no one in this world called him that except Qing Heng. .
Du Heng smiled and said: "What? Get up quickly, let me tell you, today's stewed pigeon soup is very delicious, if you don't get up and smile, I will drink it for you."
Jing Nan lifted the quilt: "Oh, then I have to hurry up, that little guy's speed is too fast, if he is late, he will really drink it for me." The moment he got out of bed, Jing Nan's knees rolled Soft, he staggered and was about to fall forward.
Du Heng stepped forward to support Jing Nan: "Are you okay? Xuanyu, Xuanyu!"
Hearing Du Heng's call, Xuan Yu appeared soon.He poured some spiritual energy into Jing Nan's knees.Jing Nan sat helplessly on the edge of the bed, and he complained: "Aren't you two? I just have a tail, and you two treat me like a seriously ill patient."
Xuan Yu knelt on the ground with one knee, and he kneaded Jing Nan's knees with both hands: "From today on, you can live here, anyway, the big family can live there. Besides, Xiaoxiao is here, it's good for everyone to be together There is a follow-up."
Jing Nan was even more helpless: "It's not that serious, is it?"
Xuan Yu nodded: "Yes." There are some things he doesn't want to tell Du Heng for fear that he will be worried. When Jing Nan had the sixth tail last time, he and Feng Gui nearly killed half their lives.
The situation this time will only be more serious than last time. Before the official moulting season and the official long tail, Jing Nan's reaction is already so big.When that day comes, I don't know what's going on with Jing Nan.
Xuan Yu said slowly: "I am going to send a message to Feng Gui to let him come back, the two of us will guard you."
Jing Nan waved his hand: "It's okay, it's okay, don't bother. The less people know about this, the better. There are many people in Fenggui. If you call him back suddenly, there may be some trouble."
Xuanyu thought for a while and said, "That's okay, I'll fix the barrier in the village starting today, and I'll call Lao Dao again when the time comes. With so many people guarding it, it shouldn't be a big problem."
Jing Nan turned to look at Du Heng: "You can take care of Xiaoyu, since you came, he has become more and more verbose. I didn't find him so cautious before."
Du Heng spread his hands: "Don't look at me, I'm just a little foundation builder, all I can do is cook delicious food for you."
Jing Nan waited for a while before standing up. He brushed his long hair: "Hey, why do I feel like I'm a paraplegic when something happens suddenly? Look at how cautious you all are."
Looking to the left, Xuan Yu supported his hand, and looking to the right, Du Heng supported his waist.Thinking of how Jinnan was still walking like flying in half a month, no one would pay attention to him, who would have thought that after half a month, he would become a sick beauty?
In the village, Xiaoxiao was probably the only little guy who didn't care about Jing Nan's hair-changing long tail, and he wished Jing Nan could shed more hair.He has already collected more than half of the nine-tailed hair in his treasure chest. In the future, these hairs can be exchanged for a lot of spirit stones in Wan Workshop, and he can buy a lot of delicious food!
Jing Nan sat on the chair and looked at the several dishes in front of him. He raised his eyebrows: "Wow, it's really rich."
The fat pigeons in the casserole were round and round one by one. Du Heng filled a big bowl of soup for Jing Nan, and there was a whole pigeon in the soup: "Jing Nan, drink more soup."
After the pigeon soup is stewed, it is very clear, with a thin layer of golden oil floating on it.Du Heng did not use the method of stewing old hen soup to stew pigeons. The pigeon soup stewed on a low fire is the most nourishing, and it will melt from the mouth to the heart after taking a sip.
In fact, the taste of pigeon soup is similar to that of hen soup, except that pigeon is not as fatty as hen, and the stewed soup is very light.After taking a few sips of soup, Jing Nan turned his attention to the pigeons in the bowl. He didn't know how long he had slept, all he knew was that the pigeons in the bowl had been stewed for a long time.
The outer skin of the pigeon looks complete, but as long as you touch it lightly with chopsticks, the skin and bones will fall apart.Even the neck, which has the most bones, broke when it hit the chopsticks.The most essential piece of meat of the pigeon is on the belly, and Jing Nan easily picked off two pieces of meat from the belly with a pair of chopsticks.
Du Heng looked at Jing Nan expectantly: "Is it delicious?"
Jing Nan ate the pigeon meat slowly. The pigeon meat had been stewed to the point of melting in the mouth. The young pigeon was already tender, and even the bones could be chewed and swallowed.Jing Nan stretched out her thumb with a smile: "It's perfect, delicious."
Hearing this answer, Du Heng was relieved.He scooped up a pigeon for Xiaoxiao and Xuanyu: "Eat slowly, don't burn it."
Xiaoxiao's eyes were shining, and he drank the soup quite politely at first.But when he finished the soup in the bowl, he ate the whole squab in one gulp, and then threw his head on the table and spit out a pile of bare bones.
Du Heng was dumbfounded. When will he learn the bone-spitting move of Xiaoxiao?This is too easy, right?
Just thinking about it, Xuanyu tore off a piece of soft meat from the pigeon breast and handed it to Du Heng's lips: "It's delicious, you should try it too."
Du Heng was not polite either, he opened his mouth and ate the meat.The squab was originally fresh and tender, and the meat was not bad at all. In addition, Du Heng seasoned it properly, even with just a little salt, the taste was incomparably delicious.
Du Heng was chewing on the pigeon meat, and he lifted the steamer on the dining table.The lotus-leaf chicken is placed in the steamer, and the lotus-leaf chicken is still tied with the leaves of Zhulong grass.The steamed lotus leaves have turned yellowish brown, no longer green at the beginning.But their essence has been incorporated into the chicken inside, as evidenced by the tangy fragrance.
Xuanyu helped Du Heng untie the grass rope on the lotus leaf. After Du Heng uncovered the top lotus leaf, a lotus leaf chicken with yellow orange and orange oil lay quietly between the two layers of lotus leaves. between.When Du Heng steamed the chicken, the belly of the chicken was facing the sky. Now they saw two fat and tender chicken legs facing the sky. The whole chicken looked very round.
After uncovering the lotus leaf, the aroma of the chicken mixed with the fragrance of the lotus leaf and the fragrance of Lingmi came oncoming.Du Heng stretched out his hand and pulled the bamboo stick used to bind the chicken's buttocks, and a few grains of fragrant steamed rice rolled out of the chicken's belly.
Jing Nan raised his eyebrows: "Hey, is there rice in the chicken belly?"
Du Heng nodded: "Yes, I like to put some soaked Lingmi in the chicken belly, so that the taste of the rice will be particularly good, I will serve you some." Before Jing Nan could speak, he stood up and picked it up. He took Jing Nan's bowl, and then dug two spoonfuls of Ling rice into the bowl.
Usually, Xiaoxiao is the only one who can get such service from Du Heng, and Jing Nan is always envious of Xiaoxiao's treatment.In the end, when it was his turn to receive this treatment, Jing Nan suspected that his life would not be long.
Jing Nan took the bowl from Du Heng with both hands: "Actually... I have pretty good hands and feet." He can move by himself.
Du Heng said with a smile: "there is not much rice in the chicken belly, let's share a few bites." As he spoke, he put two spoonfuls of rice in Xiaoxiao's bowl, and finally picked up Xuanyu's bowl.
The rice in the chicken belly is mixed with diced meat and shiitake mushrooms. The rice grains that have absorbed the essence of the whole chicken are clearly oily, and it smells delicious when you smell it.After Xiaoxiao took a bite of the rice, Xuanyu tweeted a few words, "Xiaoxiao said, this rice tastes better than the rice you fried before. But he still likes rice with salted meat and vegetables."
Du Heng thought for a while: "That's fine, how about I make you rice with bacon and vegetables tomorrow?"
Nodding with a smile and chirping, he likes eating rice with bacon and vegetables so much. With bone soup, he can eat five bowls of rice!
The lotus leaf chicken was steamed so soft, Du Heng wanted to break the chicken into big pieces, but when he pulled the chicken leg, the bone on the chicken leg was pulled out by him.As soon as Xuanyu's hand turned, the chicken was divided into several large pieces.
One of the two chicken legs was given to Jing Nan and the other to Xiao Xiao.There is a chicken wing in each of Du Heng's and Xuan Yu's bowls.
Jing Nan gnawed on the chicken leg: "Mmm! It's delicious! So the lotus leaf can be used in this way? There is a clear fragrance in this meat, and it's not greasy at all." Not only is it not greasy, the taste of the chicken is also very good, not salty or not Light, tender and delicious.
Du Heng said: "If you like, I'll make more and put them in the refrigerator. When you want to eat, you can take it yourself."
Jing Nan was flattered: "Oh, I'm so touched. Xiaoyu, aren't you jealous?"
Xuan Yu glanced at Jing Nan: "Do you think I have the same heart as you?" Xuan Yu shot a lore, Jing Nan didn't want to talk, just wanted to spend a while with Xuan Yu's friend.
In addition to making pigeon soup and lotus leaf chicken today, Du Heng also fried a bowl of mushrooms and vegetables.The small green vegetables in his vegetable garden are finally edible. Green vegetables that are only two inches long are the most suitable for making soup, but today there is pigeon soup, so Du Heng cut two shiitake mushrooms and mixed them together for frying.
Jing Nan and Xiaoxiao were eating meat, while Xuan Yu and Du Heng were eating mushrooms and fried vegetables.Seeing how delicious the two of them ate, he smiled and tweeted to Du Heng hesitantly, he also wanted to try the taste of mushrooms and vegetables.
Du Heng picked up a chopstick of vegetables in Xiaoxiao's bowl, and Xiaoxiao took a bite expectantly, but he soon turned his head in doubt.
Isn't this a smell of grass?Is it that delicious?The meat is still delicious!
The author has something to say: Jing Nan: Xiaoyu, are you not jealous?Du Heng has been taking special care of me recently.
Xuan Yu: Do you think my heart is the same as yours?
Jing Nan: Tsk, what a big boobs?Who doesn't have chest muscles yet!
Du Heng: ...Where did this topic go?
Nan Nan will be sick for a while, and likes to speed up the beauty of the sick, after all, the first growth
