57. Chicken stew with mushrooms

Ji Pingan excitedly walked around every room in the new house, holding a rag in his hand and wiping the clean furniture again and again.I never thought that I could live in such a nice house in my lifetime. It is spacious, comfortable, bright, clean, warm and elegant. This is Ji Ping'an's dream house!

He Lang also followed Ji Ping'an around the house, touching the decorations of Ji's house fondly: "If I build a house in the future, I will build it like yours."

Seeing the two of them looking at the new house endlessly, Xiao Huang finally couldn't bear it anymore.He sat down on the floor and lowered his head aggrievedly: "I'm hungry..."

He ate five cakes in the morning, and he kept thinking about the fried mushrooms that Ji Pingan said.But it was almost time for dinner, and Ji Pingan hadn't seen him cooking yet.Xiao Huang's stomach growled, and after he moaned and chirped twice, he lay on the floor without moving.

He Lang prefers Xiao Huang, seeing him like this, He Lang immediately forgot about the house: "Oh, Xiao Huang is hungry. Be safe, let's stop watching, eat first, eat first!"

Ji Pingan suddenly remembered the business: "Okay!"

When using a new kitchen for the first time, it is always a good sign to have some hard dishes.After thinking about it, Ji Pingan said, "Shall we make stewed chicken with mushrooms?"

Xiao Huang got up from the floor suddenly, and he hurriedly walked towards the door.Ji Pingan stopped him: "Xiao Huang, what are you going to do?"

Little Huang didn't turn his head back: "Catch the chicken!"

Xiao Huang has been unhappy with Ji Ping'an's big rooster for a long time, and this time he can finally attack this chicken openly.There was a rooster crowing from the chicken coop, and after a while Xiao Huang dragged a rooster about his size to the yard.

Xiaobai turned into a human form, he held the chicken wings and said, "I'm going to clean up the chicken."

Ji Pingan responded, "Okay, I'll prepare side dishes."

The bundled chicken was lying in the yard. Xiaobai went to the kitchen to get a kitchen knife. The most amazing thing was that he even took a bowl to catch the chicken blood.There is only half a bowl of clear water in the bowl, golden soybean oil is floating on the water surface, and there are salt grains that have not had time to melt at the bottom of the bowl.

He Lang stared at Xiaobai's back strangely for a long time, unable to recover, Ji Pingan stretched out his hand and shook in front of him: "What's wrong?"

He Lang complained: "This kid took away what I did, hey! Why do I feel that he has become the master in this family, and I have become a guest?"

Ji Pingan smiled until his eyes narrowed: "You are all my dearest people."

But Ji Pingan had a sentence stuck in his throat and he didn't say it. He had to clean up the chicken that He Lang cleaned up again.But Xiaobai is different, Xiaobai is meticulous in his work.Don't look at Xiaobai who usually doesn't talk much, but he can seriously finish the tasks assigned to him every time.

Taking advantage of this time, Ji Pingan went to the field to grab some green vegetables and pulled out a handful of garlic sprouts.After packing up the vegetables, he returned to the kitchen to familiarize himself with the environment.

The new kitchen is much larger than the previous one, and the wooden table had to lean against the wall to make room.But the same wooden table can be placed in the new kitchen without sticking to the wall, and several stools can be added.

The position of the stove is almost the same as before, but the sink and table have moved slightly.They are not as close together as before, and the activity area in the middle is much larger.

The pots and pans that had been piled up in the kitchen were moved outside, and the demon cultivators made several sets of cabinets in the kitchen.Ji Ping'an's familiar cupboard also changed to a simple and elegant color, and with the large windows on the south and west sides of the kitchen, the whole kitchen changed from the dark and greasy feeling in his impression to a very refreshing one.

Ji Ping'an really likes his new house, he always feels that this house has mysteries that he doesn't know.Even though the houses don't look big from the outside, how come every house is surprisingly big?

After walking around in the kitchen for a while, he gradually got used to the new kitchen.At this time, he took out all kinds of dried mushrooms that had been sun-dried in summer from the cupboard. Ji Pingan picked up a handful of mushrooms of different colors, shapes and sizes and put them in the wooden basin.

He Lang casually squeezed a dried mushroom and looked at it: "It's safe to say that your dried mushrooms are clean, why is there so much sand in the dried mushrooms I make every time?"

Ji Pingan smiled and said: "That's because when I pick mushrooms, I will cut off the dirty things as much as possible, so that the sediment will not fall into the folds of the mushrooms, and it will be much cleaner after drying."

He Lang nodded: "Understood."

Although he said he understood, Ji Pingan always felt that according to He Lang's personality, the dried mushrooms he would dry out next year would still be muddy.

After soaking the dried mushrooms in warm water for a while, the clear water turned brown.The unique fragrance of dried mushrooms emanated faintly, which made the little yellow belly squatting beside the wooden basin grow louder.

There are not many dishes to cook today, Ji Pingan is going to make a stewed chicken with mushrooms, stir-fried fat sausage and green vegetables, plus scrambled eggs with wild enoki mushrooms that Xiao Huang misses.Although there are only four dishes, it is enough to feed five or six people.

After turning around, He Lang asked, "You just said to make stewed chicken with mushrooms? Then... how about making potstickers? I like that one the most."

Ji Pingan smiled: "Okay!"

When Xiaobai entered the kitchen door with the chicken that had been chopped into pieces, he saw Ji Pingan was kneading noodles: "Would you like noodles for lunch?"

Ji Pingan put the not-so-smooth dough in the basin aside and covered it with gauze: "No, Langzi wants to eat pot stickers. It just so happens that I'm making stewed chicken with mushrooms today. I'll make it in one pot later."

Xiaobai nodded. It was a dish he had never heard of, so it should be good.

After the chicken and side dishes were in place, the first puffs of smoke rose from the chimney of the new kitchen.He Lang sat on the side with his legs crossed: "I heard from the Yaoxiu who repaired the house that they deliberately kept the stove in Ping'an's house. I didn't expect them to be very careful."

Ji Pingan poured a circle of oil into the pot and said with emotion: "I used to think that demon cultivators were very domineering, but I didn't expect to see a different demon cultivator this time when building a house. Whether it's Wolf Thirteen or Xia Lao, They're all very talkative."

Xiao Bai added firewood to the stove without haste, his lips pursed slightly.It wasn't until Ji Pingan said good things about Yaoxiu that his heart finally settled down.

I don't know when, Xiaobai found that he was afraid of seeing the disappointment in Ping An's eyes, afraid that the warmth in his eyes would turn into frost.Before that, Xiaobai never worried about gains and losses for one person.

Ji Pingan didn't know anything about Xiaobai's inner activities, and the joy in his heart could no longer be expressed in words.The oil in the pot was emitting a little blue smoke, and he threw the prepared ginger, garlic and halved shallots into the pot.

There was a loud stabbing sound, and a puff of green smoke evaporated from the pot.

Green smoke flew towards the direction of the roof. If it had been before, the kitchen would have started to be filled with oily smoke.However, after the aroma of the side dishes exploded, Ji Pingan found that there was no smoke in the kitchen.

It was as if something had sucked the fumes from the kitchen to the outside.Ji Pingan was surprised: "Oh, is this the little surprise Mr. Xia gave me?"

Xiao Bai said warmly: "It should be."

Ji Pingan happily poured the chicken nuggets from the bamboo basket into the pot: "It's great! Xiaobai, I think the monk's method is really great!"

While chatting and laughing, he can do things that ordinary people can't do no matter how hard they try, monks are really amazing.

The heated chicken nuggets quickly changed color, and after a while of stir-frying, the chicken skin shrank slightly and turned into a nice yellow color.Unlike hens, roosters have a lot of fat, and the fat at the bottom of the pot does not increase after stir frying.

After Ji Pingan poured cooking wine, soy sauce, and spices such as star anise and cinnamon leaves into the pan and stir-fried evenly, the chicken nuggets turned a sauce-colored color.At this time, the smell of oily smoke came in from the outside of the house, and He Lang sniffed it and was happy: "Hey, Ping An, your house is interesting. People who cook in the kitchen can't smell the smell, but people outside can smell it first."

Ji Pingan smiled: "Good thing, I'm greedy for those people outside who can only smell but can't eat!"

After the chicken and sauce are stir-fried evenly, it is time to add water and stew.The water Ji Pingan added was the water after soaking the mushrooms. The mushrooms in his house were clean and solid, and the water after washing the mushrooms was full of the essence of the mushrooms.

It's a pity to waste such water. Ji Pingan likes to add mushroom water to the pot and stew together. The mushroom flavor of the dishes will be stronger.

Ji Pingan poured the brown mushroom water into the pot, and then added hot water that had submerged the chicken pieces.The large pieces of chicken were rolling in the soup. At this moment, Ji Pingan found that he could still smell the smell standing next to the stove.

After the soup in the pot boiled, Ji Pingan sprinkled the soaked mushrooms in the chicken soup.He Lang opened the window: "Well! I smell a familiar smell!"

Ji Pingan put the lid on the pot: "This chicken has been raised for almost a year, and the stewing time will be a little longer. If you are hungry, Langzi, I have pancakes in the cupboard."

He Lang shook his head firmly: "No, it's not too late for a good meal. I'll wait for chicken stewed with mushrooms and pancakes."

Ji Pingan wiped his hands, and he smiled and brought over the dough that was set aside to wake up.After proofing, the not-so-smooth dough becomes smooth after a little kneading.

Ji Pingan felt a little regretful: "It's been so many years, and I still can't reproduce the potstickers pancakes made by my grandma."

The cakes made by Grandma Ji don't need to be kneaded, just make the dough into a paste, and when the vegetables in the pot are almost ready, scoop up pieces of paste and paste them on the side of the pot.The pancakes made in this way are crispy where the batter is concentrated, and soft where the batter is concentrated.

Ji Ping'an is always not good at grasping the speed. He doesn't know how to make pancakes with cornmeal, so he can just be lazy and put the white flour pancakes on the side of the pot.

He Lang didn't think so: "Why, I think your cakes are delicious! Even if you don't eat meat, you have to try your cakes!"

The flame in the stove licked the bottom of the pot unhurriedly, and the chicken nuggets in the pot were shaking slightly in the gurgling soup.The strong fragrance couldn't even hide the demon cultivator's spells. Xiao Huang stood on the steps of the window and took a deep breath: "It smells so good~ Peace, I'm so hungry."

Ji Pingan cut the kneaded dough into small pieces, and after rolling the dough around on the panel and pressing it, it will turn into a round cake.He put these small round cakes on the chopping board, and then walked to the stove with the chopping board: "It's almost ready, just wait a little longer."

Open the lid of the pot, and the rich aroma of chicken and mushrooms spreads on the surface.At this time, the soup in the pot was already very thick, Ji Pingan pulled the round cake a little, and under the eyes of everyone, the long strips of noodles stuck to the edge of the pot with a 'snap'.

The upper half of the pancake was attached to the upper iron pan, and there was a layer of grease on the iron pan. Ji Pingan needed to press down on the pancake to make the pancake stick firmly.The lower part of the pancake was dragged into the soup, and the white flour pancake was stained with the color of the soup in a short while.

Ji Ping'an was fast, and within a short while there was a circle of white flour cakes on the iron pot. Ji Pingan put the lid on the pot: "Wait a little longer and it will be cooked."

At this time, something seemed to flash by in the courtyard. Ji Pingan turned around to look, and saw Wolf Thirteen standing in the courtyard with a nervous face.

Ji Pingan:! ! !

This great fairy is still there!He thought he was gone!

Ji Pingan quickly went out and saluted: "What else is there for Mr. Wolf?"

Wolf Thirteen glanced in the direction of the kitchen: "I... am a little tired, I wonder if I can rest at Mr. Ji's house."

Ji Pingan said with a smile: "Welcome, welcome! If Mr. Wolf doesn't mind, let's have a light meal together?"

Wolf Thirteen's eyes lit up, and he saluted Ji Pingan: "Thank you!"

As he spoke, he took out a storage bag from his sleeve and handed it to Ji Pingan: "Mr. Ji's new house was completed, and as the first guest, he didn't come to the door empty-handed. This is my little thought, I hope Mr. will accept it."

As soon as these words came out, Ji Ping'an was too embarrassed to refuse.He reached out and took the storage bag: "Thank you, Mr. Wolf."

Wolf Thirteen looked at Ji Ping'an expectantly: "Sir, won't you open it and have a look? I don't know if the gift below suits your wishes."

It was the first time for Ji Pingan to untie the storage bag. As soon as he untied the tie rope on the pocket, the contents inside rushed out.I only heard crackling sounds in the courtyard, and when I looked closely, fish that were half the length of a man were frantically jumping out of the storage bag.

The huge yard was soon filled with jumping big fish. He Lang, who had never seen such a scene, was so shocked that he couldn't speak.

Wolf Thirteen looked expectantly in the direction of the kitchen: "Are you satisfied, sir?"

However, Ji Pingan did not answer his question, because Ji Pingan was caught off guard by the big fish and overwhelmed him.

The author has something to say:

The old cat had his wisdom teeth extracted yesterday. After a facial CT scan, it was confirmed that all four wisdom teeth had to be extracted.

The old cat wanted to pull it out once, but the doctor only pulled out one side.So we chose the side with a higher degree of difficulty. There is a wisdom tooth on that side, and its root is curved.

The doctor put anesthesia on me and dug me for half an hour, but the root of my tooth still failed to heal.

Before I got off the operating bed, I felt the burning of my left cheek. In the next few hours, after taking ibuprofen and anti-inflammatory drugs, the old cat was so painful that he just wanted to hit the wall.

One side of my face hurts and my temples prick.The pain is so violent that it hurts so badly that it deforms.

It was really deformed. My face started to swell when I got out of the hospital.

In the next few days, the old cat who can't open his mouth and can only drink porridge has to write delicious food for everyone.

Who can understand this feeling? TAT
