When it comes to eating hot pot, Xiao Luo has a lot to say. When living with her grandmother and mother, they would also eat hot pot in winter.At that time, in the countryside, there was no such convenient wax-burning hot pot in the city, or the kind of hot pot with small gas tanks.

When they eat hot pot, they use a stove, a stove that burns briquettes.Open the window a little to let the house ventilate, and then three people sit around the stove and eat the simple and fresh vegetable hot pot in the pot, which is really unique.The winter in the south is colder than that in the north, so every household had fresh vegetables in the fields at that time.

Because the New Year is approaching, everyone will kill chickens, ducks and pigs for the New Year, and there will be no shortage of meat at that time.Grandma and mother are also the top cooks. At that time, the family prepared a lot of food for Chinese New Year, such as mushrooms, fungus, various meatballs, and his favorite crispy meat.

There are not many relatives in the family, so the internal organs of those chickens and ducks are washed and used to make hot pot.In the cold weather, sitting by the stove with grandma and mother, eating hot pot made with the hottest chili, is really a special feeling.

A burst of cold air rushed over, making Xiao Luo stop recalling.He didn't expect that after such a long time, he could still remember it so clearly, as if it just happened.He thought that after such a long time, those childhood events should have been forgotten or blurred.

"What's the matter, Xiao Luo?" Seeing Xiao Luo next to him in a daze, Rhea hugged him with concern, and even in the cold winter, her big warm hand touched his forehead, "Is it uncomfortable?" The worry is because of the mating last night Making Xiao Luo feel unwell, Rhea felt a little guilty in her heart, she shouldn't have done it for so long.

"It's okay, I just remembered my parents." Xiao Luo raised his head and smiled at Rhea. He wanted to talk about his mother, but also thought that Rhea couldn't understand the word "mother", so he just went to the countryside and called his mother his mother. , anyway, they are the ones who gave birth to themselves, what they call is just a form, as long as the meaning is the same.

"Do you want to go back?" Rhea looked down at Xiao Luo slightly, the faint light in the cellar reflected on that fair cheek, when he met Xiao Luo, he never asked Xiao Luo why a female would be in the forest Appearing here is because he was separated from his family, and the family has died.

And Xiao Luo didn't say why a female appeared in the forest. They always thought that Xiao Luo was born to a nomadic orc couple.But now, Xiao Luo said that he missed his parents, did he mean, are his parents still there?If he is still there, he has to take Xiao Luo back to his tribe to meet him.

"I can't go back." Xiao Luo said a little lonely, and it is impossible for him to go back now.There are his lovers, friends, and relatives here.He believed that even without him and his brother, that man would be sad for a while at most, and he would get better after a long time.But he is different, if there is no Rhea by his side, living in pain, it would be better to die.Besides, he is living happily here now.

"Is your tribe far away from here? It's okay. I'll take you back after the beast god sacrifice." Reya patted Xiao Luo's head to comfort her, thinking that his tribe was too far away from her own.

"Okay." Xiao Luo nodded with a smile, and said yes, but she was thinking in her heart, if you were asked to go back to Earth with me, you wouldn't be willing, right? Your family and friends are all here.And it is impossible for him to let Rhea go back to Earth with him, not to mention that Rhea is not used to the life on Earth, but only to say that Rhea can transform, if those mad scientists find out, they will not arrest him and study it ?

I rubbed my chin and thought about it, maybe after Rhea went back with him, his physique would become the same as that of the people on Earth?It's like his physique has changed since he came here.But thinking that Rhea would learn to intrigue, intrigue, and be seduced by women just like the people on Earth, Xiao Luo shook her head, forget it, this orc world is more suitable for him to be with Rhea for a lifetime.

"What's the matter, Xiao Luo, is this meat bad?" Reya looked up, saw Xiao Luo shaking her head, looked down at the monster meat in her hand, sniffed it, it was still very fresh, why did Xiao Luo shake her head .Frowning and looking at the monster meat in his hand, Reya couldn't figure it out.

"Ah, what?" Xiao Luo looked down and saw Rhea's distressed expression, not understanding what happened.

"Is it okay to use the meat of the horned pig to make soup tonight?" It turned out that when Xiao Luo was distracted, the two had already walked to the place where the meat was kept in the cellar.Thinking that Xiao Luo came to the cellar with him to choose the meat for cooking soup at night, Rhea squatted on the ground to choose.In terms of meat selection, Xiao Luo has always let Rhea come, because male orcs have the most sensitive sense of smell.

"Make soup?" Xiao Luo squatted down and took the horned pig meat from Rhea's hand, "I won't make soup tonight, I'll make something else delicious."

"What to do?" Reya brought out some more meat, because the meat at home was enough for two people to survive the winter, and the males ate a lot, so the meat of the fast-horned pig was not enough for him.

"You'll know in a while." Xiao Luo smiled mysteriously. Although the hot pot is a bit spicy, fortunately, after a while, no matter it is Rhea, Fei Meng and Ryder, they are all accustomed to the taste of hot pepper under his guidance. smell.It's just a pity that it may be because the male's sense of smell and taste are naturally so sensitive, so after so long, the three males still can't eat too spicy, at most it is spicy or slightly spicy.

It seems that the hot pot at night can be considered as a mandarin duck pot?It's just that the pot is more troublesome.

There are still plenty of wild and dried vegetables in the cellar, especially meat.But hot pot can’t be all meat.After choosing the ingredients for the evening hot pot, the two left the cellar.

After returning to the house, Xiao Luo began to get busy.Let Reya wash the dishes that need to be washed. Because of the cold, the fire at home is always burning, and a jar of hot water is always burning on the fire, so there is no need to worry about using cold water for washing hands and vegetables.

Reya washed off the dishes that should be washed, and soaked the vegetables that needed to be soaked in warm water according to Xiao Luo's instructions.After finishing his work, he saw Xiao Luo chopping meat, and stood beside him curiously, "Xiao Luo, what are you doing?" Isn't the meat cut into pieces directly? cub.

"You'll know in a while." Xiao Luo replied without raising her head, he can't be distracted now, otherwise it won't be the monster's meat, but his fingers that will be chopped up later.

Rhea smiled lowly, and lovingly wiped off the thin sweat on his forehead with a clean colored silk cloth. "Do you want me to help?" Seeing that Xiao Luo was struggling to chop meat, Reya asked.

"Hey, come on, chop all these meats into pieces." Xiao Luo gave up her seat and exhaled, it's really not a human thing to chop meat.I used to see my grandma and mother seem to be very relaxed when chopping minced meat, but why did his hands get sore after chopping for a while.Is it really pampered?

"Okay." Reya nodded after glancing at the meat in the big tub on the table.

When someone helps chop the meat, he can do other things.Take out a few bones from one side of the basin and wash them clean.Another clay pot was set up on the fire again.The best way to make hot pot is to use bone broth, so that it tastes delicious and nutritious.

Boil the bone broth, and the fungus and dried mushrooms soaked in hot water in the pot here are also soaked.Seeing that Rhea was still chopping meat, Xiao Luo started to clean up the soaked fungus and dried mushrooms.Looking at the fresh wild vegetables on the table, which were emerald green, Xiao Luo thought of the delicious wild vegetable spring rolls again, but it's a pity that there is no pan here, so it is not easy to make the outer layer of skin.How about asking Bill to make a flat ceramic?Rhea said that Bill is best at making weird things, and flat ceramics should be considered weird things.

"Xiao Luo, the meat is ready. Let's see if it works." After chopping up a large pot of meat, Reya was still out of breath, not even a little sweat on his face.Xiao Luo glanced at Rhea, who seemed to be fine, and asked suspiciously, "Aren't your hands sore after chopping so much meat?"

"The meat is ready." Xiao Luo grabbed some sweet potato powder from the bag of sweet potato powder, and put the minced meat into several pots separately.He is going to make two kinds of meatballs, one is spicy and the other is not spicy.

"Not sour." Reya was helping to stir it, which is really nothing to a strong male.

"You go and mix this, otherwise the chili powder in it will make your nose uncomfortable." Xiao Luo pushed Reya to the side of the bowl where there was no chili powder. There is not much chili powder at home, but it is enough for him By the end of winter.

After spending a long time, both kinds of meatballs were ready, and the bone soup on the fire was almost ready. Some ginger was added to the soup, and some local seasonings from the beastman world were added. Xiao Luo didn't know it. Because they are all tree leaves, but think about it, it is probably similar to seasonings such as fennel on the earth.

Looking at the vegetables, meat slices, and meatballs on the table, Xiao Luo nodded. The ingredients are a little less, but they are good enough to cook in a pot, and the meat slices are the meat of several kinds of monsters, all of which have different tastes.

Opening the window and looking at the smaller snowflakes outside, Xiao Luo smiled slightly, turned her head and said to Reya who was stealing meatballs: "You are stealing meatballs again, don't eat them, go and ask Ortega and the others to come and eat together , the snow is getting smaller." Shabu-shabu is only lively when there are many people eating it.

Rhea smiled embarrassedly, turned and ran out.Xiao Luo shook her head helplessly. Meatballs were actually made when preparing food for the rainy season before, but back then there were less seasonings, and they were not as meticulously prepared as they are now. Naturally, the taste is not as good as it is now.In addition, there was no sweet potato powder at that time, and the meatballs made from the fruit juice must not be compared with the meatballs made from sweet potato powder.

Looking at the bubbling bone soup, Xiao Luo shook her head regretfully, hey, it's best to have Coke to accompany it, or cold beer is also fine.Let alone Coke now, even beer is not available.Staring at the few fruits on the table, I wonder if making fruit wine can be successful?He hasn't done it yet, but when he went to a bar with his friends, he heard a friend who was a bartender there talk about the method of making fruit wine.Try another day?

Smelling the aroma wafting from the soup pot, it seems that the bottom of the pot is almost done.

"Wow, it smells so good, Xiao Luo, what delicious food are you cooking?" The voice had already drifted into the room before anyone saw it.

Xiao Luo raised her head, sure enough, Ortega walked in the front, followed by the indifferent handsome Philemon, followed by the gentle Carl and Ryder.Rhea walked last and closed the door behind her.

"This is called shabu-shabu, and these are the ingredients for shabu-shabu." Seeing that everyone was sitting down, Xiao Luo asked Leia to bring over the prepared ingredients. Luo prepared several different sizes and depths.Now, the clay pots used for hot pot are relatively large. Looking at the three males who frowned when they smelled the chili, Xiao Luo had no choice but to ask Rhea to bring a smaller clay pot, and put the bone soup in the pot. Divided some past.

"It's a good thing I didn't put chili in it just now, otherwise you might just watch us eat it now." Throwing the chili into the small clay pot, Xiao Luo said with a smile.

"This is Shabu Shabu? The name sounds very interesting." Karl helped Xiao Luo throw two kinds of meatballs into two large and small clay pots, and looked curiously at the soup pot made of ordinary clay pots. Is it just shabu-shabu?

"Of course not, hey, look here is chili sauce, this is jam, and these vegetables and sliced ​​meat." Xiao Luo pointed to the various ingredients on the table. In fact, hot pot is very simple, it is just a hodgepodge of food, but hot pot The dipping sauce is very important, and the soup base is also very important.

With a good soup base, the vegetables and sliced ​​meat cooked out of it taste naturally delicious, while the vegetables and sliced ​​meat cooked out of a bad soup base will naturally taste inferior.The dipping sauce is also the most important thing. A delicious dipping sauce will add a lot to a hot pot.
