The peace of the Three Realms depends on me [Food]

77. Plum wine

The first thing to do is Kung Pao Chicken, which is the dish Xiaobai ordered to eat.The Kung Pao Chicken near Clear Water Bay will add some diced vegetables to it according to the season, such as diced potatoes or carrots in winter, diced cucumbers or diced lotus root in summer...

And what Ji Pingan likes is diced chicken fried with only chicken and peanuts, it tastes sour and sweet.Occasionally I eat it because there are too many peanuts in it, and my cheeks are sour, but the satisfaction cannot be described in words!

After sprinkling the prepared prickly ash, garlic slices and ginger slices into the oil pan, Ji Pingan slapped his head suddenly: "Oh, I forgot to save a few peppers to fry Kung Pao Chicken!"

All the chili peppers at home were fried into chili crisps by him, and now I am looking for some chili pieces for seasoning.But it's okay, just take a spoonful of the crispy peppers fried next to it and throw them into the pot later.

The hot oil quickly stimulated the aroma of the side dishes, and Ji Pingan poured the diced chicken that had been smoothed before into the pot.As soon as the diced chicken was put into the pot, there was a prickling sound in the pot, and then a puff of white smoke evaporated.

Even after oiling, the diced chicken still has plenty of juice in it.These juices are quickly evaporated when they encounter high-temperature oil, which forms such a large oily smoke.

Kung Pao Chicken is a quick dish. If it is fried for too long, the chicken will burn.Even chicken that has been oiled should not be fried for too long.

After the diced chicken was fried in the pot for a few times, Ji Pingan poured the prepared scallions into the pot.After stirring evenly, he picked up the seasoning sauce that he had prepared before and stirred it again with chopsticks.

There are three spoons of white sugar, three spoons of vinegar, one spoon of soy sauce, one spoon of rice wine, one spoon of potato powder and a small amount of salt in the sauce.After mixing these seasonings with a small amount of water, the sauce smells sour and sweet.

In order to make the bland sauce look better, Ji Pingan also sprinkled some emerald green scallions on it.

After pouring the sauce into the pot, the ingredients in the pot were immediately dyed a light sauce color, and the sweet and sour taste burst out quickly.The fire in the stove was booming, half a bowl of cooking juice was quickly evaporated, and the color of the diced chicken became darker and darker.

Because a little potato powder was added to the sauce, after the juice was collected by the fire, a thin layer of gravy appeared between the diced chicken.The diced chicken should have been fried to this extent. Ji Ping quickly scooped a large spoonful of peanuts and chilli crisps from a bowl on the side and poured them into the pot.

After a quick stir-fry, a plate of oily Kung Pao Chicken appeared on the plate.As soon as Ji Pingan put the plate on the table, Xiao Huang's rainbow fart came: "Wow, this looks delicious, even better than the one at noon!"

Ji Ping'an was happy: "You haven't eaten yet, you know it's better than lunch?"

Xiao Huang proudly said: "I'll know it when I smell it with my nose!" It's sour and sweet, you can't go wrong!

Ji Pingan handed Xiaobai and the others two pairs of chopsticks: "Try to see if it suits your appetite."

Xiaobai wanted to taste it later when he was eating, but seeing Ji Pingan's expectant eyes, he subconsciously took the chopsticks in his hand: "Okay."

Thinking that this is a delicious dish made by Ping An specially for him, Xiao Bai felt that even if he didn't eat this dish, he would be satisfied.

The diced chicken was cut slightly larger than the diced chicken at noon. Even if the little white knife is not bad, the diced chicken that has been oiled can't be as sharp and angular as raw meat.Each piece of fried chicken is different, and some of them still have a little skin on them.

When you take a bite of diced chicken, the first thing you feel is a slight sourness, followed by a refreshing sweetness.If it is just ordinary sweet and sour, this dish will be a little greasy, but the sweetness is also a little salty.

Xiaobai thought of the lychee he had eaten in the Yaozu, and the chicken diced inexplicably reminded him of this fruit.

The diced chicken is tender and smooth, not at all firewood, and of course it doesn't have that nasty fishy smell in your mouth.Xiao Bai couldn't help but put another piece of diced chicken into his mouth. This time, he tasted a little bit of spiciness, presumably it was the oil that fried the chili peppers and the chili oil in the dish.

The peanuts mixed in the diced chicken are round, and the yellow skin is covered with a layer of oily gravy. When people pick them up with chopsticks, they can't be picked up and delivered to their mouths without some skill. .

But once they are sent between the teeth, as long as you bite lightly, the crispy peanuts will crack and shatter between the teeth.The aroma of peanuts fills the entire mouth, making people want to have another one.

Both Xiaobai and Xiaohuang liked this taste very much, especially Xiaohuang, who raised his neck and used spiritual energy to roll up the peanuts and diced chicken on the plate and ate it.

Ji Pingan smiled and touched Xiao Huang's head: "It's easy to get angry if you eat too much peanuts, Xiao Huang, take it easy."

Xiao Huang didn't have the concept of getting angry, he shook his head and said, "It's delicious, Ping An, you are really amazing."

Xiao Huang did not eat less Kung Pao Chicken at noon, but at the end of the meal, he felt that he had eaten a mouthful of diced carrots and potatoes, and there were not many diced chickens and peanuts in it.Ji Ping'an's cooking is different, it's full of chicken and peanuts, every bite is satisfying.

Moreover, the Kung Pao Chicken made by Ji Pingan is not full of soup like the one he ate at noon, the chicken he made is very dry.Xiao Huang felt that after the dish was finished, there would be only side dishes and red oil left in it, and there would be no soup.

Xiaobai likes to eat the peanuts in it very much. If you let him eat peanuts, he will feel tired after eating some.However, the slightly sour peanuts are not so greasy. The tender chicken diced and the crispy peanuts complement each other perfectly, and the aftertaste is endless after chewing.

Xiaobai put down his chopsticks, and said to Ji Pingan in a gentle voice, "It's delicious."

It turned out that this was the taste Kung Pao Chicken should have, sweet and sour like fruit, and also like his mood when he saw Ji Ping'an.

After the kung pao chicken is cooked, it’s time to stir fry the spicy chicken.In fact, spicy chicken is also a quick dish. After the chili and chicken pieces are ready, just add a little seasoning and mix it a little.

Watching Ji Pingan take out half a bowl of peppercorns, Xiaobai and Xiaohuang also remembered the fear of being dominated by peppercorn oil.Xiao Huang's head turned into a rattle: "Peace, no pepper, no pepper."

When eating noodles last time, Xiao Huang felt that the more pepper oil the better.Seeing that he couldn't stop him, Ji Pingan could only obey him.

After eating the noodles that day, Xiao Huang sat on the door frame with his mouth in a daze for an hour, leaving a shadow after that...

Ji Pingan said softly: "Don't worry, just put a little bit, it won't taste bad."

Xiao Huang still had some lingering fears: "Just put a little bit."

Seeing Xiao Huang like that, Ji Pingan was really pitiful, he smiled and poured out half of the prickly ash in the bowl: "Okay, just put a little."

After the hot oil stimulated the aroma of peppercorns, Ji Pingan chicken nuggets and chili crisps were poured into the pan, because the seasonings were marinated before frying, and Ji Pingan didn't plan to add any more salt.

But he sprinkled a spoonful of sugar in the pot, this operation made Xiao Bai confused: Is the spicy chicken also sweet?

When the pot was about to start, Ji Pingan poured the remaining peanuts in the bowl into the pot. When the spicy chicken came out of the pot, he used the largest plate in the house.The chili and diced chicken are piled up on the plate to form a hill, which looks incomparably spectacular.

Xiao Bai put the big plate on the table, and Xiao Huang cheered: "Spicy chicken is ready—"

Take a look at this big plate of oily and bright red spicy chicken, the color is too festive!Look at the chicken nuggets inside, which are much larger than the chicken bones found in the chili at noon!

Moreover, the chicken nuggets look oily, not dry like those eaten at noon.The fragrant chicken and chili smell came straight to the nostrils, so fragrant that Xiao Huang couldn't sit still.

He couldn't wait to put a piece of chicken into his mouth, the spicy chicken just out of the pan was boiling hot, Xiao Huang didn't take it seriously at all.The chicken nuggets are fried crispy on all sides, but the inside still retains a fresh and tender taste, and the gravy still flows out after one bite.

The marinated chicken is moderately salty and slightly spicy in the mouth, without too much sweetness.Because the chicken is relatively large and has a lot of meat on its body, many chicken nuggets on the plate are a complete piece of meat.

Needless to say, chili crisps and peanuts, these two kinds of things are delicious when eaten empty.Xiao Huang can open his belly and eat big mouthfuls, without worrying about eating dishes he doesn't like.

Xiao Huang was so moved that she almost cried: "It's delicious!" What exactly was there for lunch!The spicy chicken made by Ji Pingan is delicious!

Usually at this time, Ji Ping'an would lift the lid of the pot, and Xiao Bai would serve the rice.However, today Ji Pingan wanted to eat something different, when Xiao Bai wanted to lift the lid of the pot, Ji Pingan called him: "Xiao Bai, can you drink?"

Of course Xiaobai can drink, and he can drink very well.

Ji Pingan said with a smile: "I want to drink some wine today, can you drink with me?"

When the eyes met, Xiaobai understood what Ji Ping'an wanted to express.Today is indeed a happy day. Although the two didn't say anything about each other, there is no need to explain some feelings too clearly. It is enough for everyone to know each other's thoughts.

Xiaobai's eyes were full of unresolved tenderness: "Okay." How lucky he was to meet someone in Qingshuiwan who he wanted to spend his whole life with!It should be celebrated!

Ji Pingan opened the bottom shelf of the cupboard, and saw a medium-sized jar in this compartment.The jar looked old, and there was a layer of light gray around it.The jar was sealed with an upside-down lid, and after Ji Pingan lifted the lid, brown oily paper was exposed on the seal.

Ji Pingan carried the wine jar out of the cabinet, and after removing the greased paper on the jar, a mellow wine smell wafted out.

After sniffing it, Xiaobai asked uncertainly, "What kind of wine is this?" It was different from the usual wine, it smelled fruity.

Ji Pingan took out a wooden wine spoon from the cabinet again, and he explained: "This is green plum wine made a few years ago, grandma loves to drink, when her old man was alive, grandpa would make some fruit wine for her every year. "

Together with the wine spoon, there is also an oblate pot as big as a sea bowl. The structure of the pot is very similar to the carbon pot at home, but it is much smaller than the carbon pot.

Ji Pingan unhurriedly cleaned the wine spoon and pot: "When there is a happy event at home, grandpa and grandma will drink a little wine together. I was still young and wanted to drink too, but grandpa said to wait until I grow up to drink."

Ji Pingan said with a smile: "Grandma is greedy for drinking, and grandpa is afraid that she will get hurt, so he will mix some water into the fruit wine every time, and then cook it slowly over the fire..."

The white-haired old man sat facing each other, and the small clay stove beside her was slowly cooking green plum wine, and the whole kitchen was filled with the sweet smell of wine.As a child, he would walk around the table, looking forward to growing up early.

He finally found someone who can drink with him, the green plum wine at home is no longer just for seasoning when cooking!

After wiping the spoon dry, he threw two charcoals into the pot under the tandoor.The fiery red charcoal fire is slowly burning, and a small stove that can be used for cooking wine is formed.

Xiaobai reached into the wine jar with a wine spoon, and when the wine spoon was lifted out, there was a spoonful of brown-red wine syrup in it.He poured the wine into the pot, and Ji Pingan said beside him, "Just two spoonfuls are enough, and we need to add water to it."

At that time, he used spirits to make plum wine. If he didn't boil it with water, he would have to pour it out if he drank a little.

Xiaobai responded: "Okay!" While talking, he added another spoonful to the small pot.

The author has something to say:

Old Cat: Get him drunk!Then do happy things! !

Xiaobai: Don't worry, wait for me to supplement my physiological knowledge.

The green plum wine made by Lao Maoxia should be drinkable, I will drink some later, I hope it is not too bad.

After drinking, let's report.Ahhhhh!acid!I was so sour, could it be that I didn't stir well and only took the top liquor?This sourness directly woke me up at two o'clock in the morning.
