Chapter 138: Beer Duck on Fire (Ask for Subscription)
The three of them walked back and forth on the mountain path.
The silhouette of the setting sun is like a torn skirt veil, spilling from the trees and floating gently with the winter evening breeze.
In mid-air, all kinds of birds step on the air smartly, or soar into the sky, or fly low, dotted with stars, gathering or scattering in the distance.
They occasionally burrow into the leafy woods, occasionally making a few crisp calls.
If you don't know exactly what day it is, I'm afraid you would have to think of this vibrant twilight scene as the color of twilight in spring and summer.
Winter in the far south is about the same, you can't see snow, you can't see withering, you can still look at it, it's still green, and even the colorful birds are still the same.
is the same as before, when he returned home, Liu Qingshan insisted on leaving Tan Dasha into the house for dinner.
Today, Tan Dasha helped with the work, and he worked hard, and he didn't pay for it, and he didn't even give him food, but he couldn't talk about it.
Tan Dasha didn't want to stay to eat, but he couldn't resist Liu Qingshan, so he had to follow in.
As soon as the three of them entered the gate, they immediately smelled a pungent fragrance before they could look at the kitchen door.
The fragrance lingers in the house, the smell of the old house is almost masked, and if you inhale it gently, the whole nasal cavity can only smell the fragrant aroma of meat.
"It's beer duck. Liu Qingshan's eyes sparkled, and he looked into the kitchen in surprise and shouted at his mother, "Mom, you make beer duck." ”
Wu Cuimei glared at her son amusedly: "Look at your appearance, a duck is so happy." ”
"Mom, you don't know, if I eat pork again, I'm going to become a pig. Liu Qingshan hurriedly ran to wash his hands.
Wu Cuimei saw that her husband and son were still followed by Tan Dasha, so she hurriedly greeted him warmly: "Oh, Dasha is also here, you have a good mouth tonight." ”
Tan Dasha smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, I originally said that I wouldn't come in for dinner, but Qingshan had to let me in." ”
"You've helped with all the work, so you'll definitely have to eat together. Liu Qingshan washed his hands and came back, and immediately grabbed a piece of duck skin exposed on the hot pot of the induction cooker with his bare hands, and put it directly into his mouth without blowing it.
"Today thanks to Dasha. Liu Yuanhe washed his hands and said, "If it weren't for Dasha, Qingshan and I might not have finished the reservoir so quickly." ”
Hearing this, Wu Cuimei's face was suddenly filled with gratitude: "Dasha, thank you so much, I said in the morning that I wanted to go into the mountain together, but their father and son refused, I was still worried just now, I was afraid that they would not be busy today, and they would have to be busy for a day tomorrow, thanks to you, they won't have to be busy tomorrow." ”
"Sister-in-law, don't say that, this is what I should do. Aoyama has helped me so much, I should help with a little work. ”
"Okay, you're welcome, sit down and eat, I'm starving. Liu Qingshan grabbed the soup spoon and bowl, and scooped out a large bowl of golden duck soup.
The beer duck soup is very warm-warming, and it is best to eat on a winter day like this.
If you want to eat beer duck, you should eat freshly slaughtered farmhouse duck.
The freshly slaughtered duck meat of the farmer's duck will have a fresh and sweet taste, which is different from the duck fed with all kinds of feed, and also different from the frozen duck meat, their meat hides a lot of delicious flavor, and after boiling with beer and other condiments, the fresh sweetness will bloom like fireworks in the night.
Beer duck is not only intoxicating, but it is also not difficult to prepare. Even a rural woman like Wu Cuimei, who can't read a few words, can master the recipe, which shows that no skill is needed to make this dish.
The farmer's duck is caught and killed, and after the feathers are washed and chopped, they are put into a hot pan to fry to remove excess water, and then add beer that can submerge the duck meat, as well as an appropriate amount of star anise, cinnamon, ginger, tangerine peel and other spices.
If conditions permit, you can also add some other spices.
After these spices are added in one go, they are allowed to flirt in the pot, and in about half an hour, the lid of the pot can be lifted to get a pot of intoxicating delicacies.
Although the beer duck is not complicated to make and the ingredients are not difficult to obtain, this dish is still an extremely luxurious dish for the hard-working mountain people.
Because it costs not only a big duck, but also a few beers and a few spices, which is too much for the mountain people, and it also takes time.
Therefore, most of the people in the mountains make duck meat based on clear water hot pot, and few people are willing to spend too much time and energy to make such a delicacy.
Even if it is indeed a rare delicacy, for the mountain people who are already tired after a long day's work, they obviously prefer to eat a simple meal as soon as possible rather than a rare delicacy.
That is, Wu Cuimei can't go to work in the mountains because of her health, so she has time to tinker with these.
If you were another villager, it would be difficult to eat beer duck twice a year.
This is especially true for Tan Dasha, who has a difficult family background.
Standing in the warm kitchen with the fire rising at this moment, looking at the pot of duck meat that was billowing white smoke and bubbling on the simple wooden table under the yellowed energy-saving lamp, Tan Dasha was a little dazed.
It's not a New Year's Day, but you can actually eat beer duck?
It's too extravagant!
"Uncle Dasha, what are you doing standing stupidly? Wash your hands and eat. Liu Qingshan shouted, half a bowl of fresh and sweet soup had rolled down his stomach.
A wave of warmth burst out from the inside out in an instant, and the whole person immediately felt comfortable.
"Ahh He exhaled on his back and exclaimed, "It's so comfortable, it would be nice to be able to drink a bowl of hot soup like this every day." ”
"Daydream about it. Wu Cuimei glared and said, "Don't always beat me up for the idea of chicken and duck, don't forget, you're still drinking Jiaomi tea this morning, this beer duck is full of big ingredients, it's easier to get angry when you eat it, you eat less." ”
Liu Qingshan's face turned black: "Mom, I'm not on fire." ”
"It's not on fire, so what are you going to do in town with Dasha yesterday?" Liu Yuanhe made up for it.
Liu Qingshan's face darkened even more: "Dad, don't maliciously interpret my words, what I'm saying is that Uncle Dasha is going, I don't want to go, when did I say I'm going?"
"Come on, Dasha, eat a duck leg. Wu Cuimei directly ignored her son's roar, sandwiched a duck leg for Tan Dasha, who was covered in mud, and specially advised, "Eat slowly, don't burn it." This duck is huge, let's have enough for it tonight. ”
"Hey, thank you, sister-in-law. Tan Dasha grinned, hurriedly picked up the duck leg in the bowl, and bit it hard.
The meat fiber of duck meat is thicker than that of chicken, and when you tear off the meat, you can clearly see the strips of meat tightly arranged on the duck legs.
And the duck meat in the mouth, chew it, the soup explodes, with the aroma of spices, the sweetness of beer, like the spring water of dry autumn, can instantly moisturize the whole mouth.
When you bite it again, you will find the chewiness and rich flavor of the duck meat after removing the excess soup.
The deliciousness of the farmhouse duck can only be felt by those who have eaten it. To repeat it in words is always a little bit less soulful.
However, as Wu Cuimei said, beer duck with so many spices is delicious, but if a man eats too much, he will definitely get angry.
Especially Liu Qingshan, a man in his twenties, who has neither a girlfriend nor a wife.
