Chapter 42: A Big Elbow in One Mouthful
The two girls don't know how to cook, and when they heard that Li Wanqi was going to cook for themselves, Cheng Yuanyue's surprised mouth could stuff Sika's head.
"When are you going to cook?!"
"Isn't it easy to cook? ”
So the two came to the kitchen, Li Wanqi was just about to let Wang Huisu guide and let her stir-fry, but before she finished speaking, Wang Huisu threw over two garlic.
Li Wanqi obediently took the garlic and peeled it.
Cheng Yuanyue helped peel the garlic together, and from time to time she looked up and saw Wang Huisu processing the ingredients, and the knife work alone made her envious.
"Qiqi, if you learn one-third of your mother's cooking skills, I will find you to eat every day in the future. ”
"If you believe her, she will only peel garlic!" Wang Huisu said with a smile, not giving Qiqi any face.
Of course, Li Wanqi doesn't just know how to peel garlic, she argues with reason, "I still cook the lunch at noon, how good the pot is! If you are willing to let me stir-fry, it must be done well." ”
"Then you go cook rice. Wang Huisu thought for a while and said.
Li Wanqi put down the garlic in his hand and happily washed rice and cooked rice.
While measuring rice, washing, and putting water, she explained to Cheng Yuanyue, who was stunned, how much rice a few people eat, how much water to put in, etc., but Cheng Yuanyue was a little stunned when she heard it, thinking that cooking rice was so complicated, and she had to use mathematics to calculate.
Finally waited for Li Wanqi to plug in the rice cooker, Cheng Yuanyue said admiringly: "Qiqi, I really can't see that you can do such complicated housework." ”
"It's so-so, it's not too complicated. Li Wanqi said lightly, squatted down again and continued to peel garlic.
Wang Huisu glanced at the rice cooker and said angrily: "You forgot to press the switch again." ”
"Oh, yes, yes. ”
After peeling the garlic, the two girls stayed in the kitchen, and they must learn Wang Huisu's cooking skills today.
It takes a long time to make braised elbows, so Wang Huisu chose to make the elbows first, and after the elbows were shaved and washed, they were blanched in a pot with cooking wine and green onions and ginger.
"The pork knuckle must be blanched first to remove the blood foam and the smell of meat. ”
Wang Huisu took out the pork knuckle, drained the water, boiled oil in the pot, put in the elbow, green onion, ginger and garlic, cinnamon, star anise, bay leaves, cooking wine, soy sauce, chicken essence, rock sugar, orange peel, cloves and other seasonings, and finally transferred to the pressure cooker and simmered for half an hour.
Taking advantage of the time when the pork knuckle was stewed, Wang Huisu washed the pot and began to fry the chicken wings.
"When handling the chicken wings, you need to go through a knife, and it is best to poke a few holes with a toothpick to make it easier to absorb the flavor. ”
"It's best to use this non-stick pan when frying chicken wings, no need to put oil, the chicken wings themselves will be oily, and it's almost golden brown on both sides. ”
After the chicken wings are fried, pour in a bottle of Coke, add cooking wine, cinnamon, star anise dark soy sauce, and reduce the juice over high heat.
Wang Huisu wiped the grease on the kitchen counter with a rag, looked at the two girls who were stunned, and asked, "Have you learned?"
The two shook their heads in unison, and Cheng Yuanyue smiled: "I can already smell the fragrance of pork knuckle." ”
Li Wanqi agreed, and the thick smell of meat that began to waft in the kitchen made her have no intention of studying, and only wanted to grab the pork knuckle and feast.
It is said that cooking by yourself can increase your appetite, which is actually very reasonable. Cooking requires a certain amount of exercise, and the constant aroma of the meal making process will also stimulate the appetite little by little.
Well, it's a failed teaching.
Wang Huisu didn't bother to explain, and took care of another wok to make spicy chicken.
Usually eat less spicy at home, and it is also very good to change the taste occasionally, this dish is learned by Wang Huisu himself by looking at the recipe, compared to the authentic spicy chicken, the spicy taste is much lower, after all, the taste of southern Jiangsu is not spicy, slightly reduce the spiciness, and the taste is more suitable.
After the spicy chicken is ready, the soup of the cola chicken wings is almost finished, and after the two dishes are put on the plate, Wang Huisu will steam the sea bass with the changed flower knife.
The surface of the sea bass is smeared with a little white wine to remove the fish, remember to spread the green onion and ginger when steaming, the fish can be cooked quickly, more than a pound of sea bass can be used for seven minutes at most, and the fish will become old if steamed for too long.
Take out the sea bass, pour out the soup, remove the green onion and ginger slices, spread the shredded green onion and red pepper on the fish, and finally drizzle with hot oil and light soy sauce, and the steamed sea bass is ready.
Li Wanqi and Cheng Yuanyue understood this dish, anyway, they steamed it in the pot, it was not easy, but it was difficult to change such a beautiful flower knife......
The vegetables are fried last, five minutes later, all the dishes are ready, the pork knuckle is also poured from the pressure cooker into the large plate, stewed for more than half an hour, the meat has become soft and glutinous, the sauce is fragrant and penetrates into the meat, the moment the lid of the pressure cooker is opened, the fragrance explodes in the kitchen.
"It smells so good!!"
"Auntie, are you still taking in your daughter? hahahaha. ”
The two helped bring the dishes to the table, and Wang Huisu put the pots and pans with water and dish soap to soak first, and then simply cleaned up the kitchen counter.
Li Wanqi took the bowl to fill the rice, Cheng Yuanyue helped serve the rice, Li Yumin took out a Tiandi No. 1 from the refrigerator and poured a cup for everyone.
It's now more than half past seven, more than half an hour later than the normal meal time, and Li Wanqi and Cheng Yuanyue are already hungry.
After waiting for Wang Huisu to sit down and move the chopsticks, the two girls put on gloves, and one of them grabbed a big elbow and began to gnaw.
The elbow stew is fragrant and rotten, a bite is gentle, the teeth easily bite through the pigskin, the tongue touches the crispy meat inside, the rich meat aroma explodes in the mouth, one bite down, extremely satisfied!
The quality of the elbow selected by Wang Huisu is very good, the front elbow is fat and thin, and the lean meat is more, after stir-frying and pressure cooker stewing, the meat and bones on the elbow are separated without pressure, and the most important thing is to grasp an elbow directly with your hand This feeling of gnawing is simple and rough, and it is so happy that it explodes.
"Meow, meow. ”
Sika felt hungry when he saw the appearance of these two guys, and hurriedly rubbed Li Wanqi's legs.
Li Wanqi tore off a piece of meat and gave it to eat.
Sika was moved while eating, but he didn't expect Qiqi to be willing to give it the delicious taste in his mouth without hesitation, and there was only one person on his elbow.
Li Yumin and Wang Huisu are much more insipid about eating, middle-aged people don't seem to have a high desire for many things, they don't grab their elbows with their hands to gnaw, just scrape them with a spoon, and then put them in a bowl to eat after the meat comes down, and one elbow is enough for two people.
The braised elbow is a big dish, and the rest of the side dishes also taste very good, the sweet aroma of cola chicken wings, the vigor of spicy chicken, the sweetness of steamed sea bass, and the tenderness of stir-fried side cabbage, every tea is a portrayal of Wang Huisu's cooking skills, and every chopstick dish is a kind of enjoyment.
Sika didn't leave after eating the elbow meat, and he still wanted to eat fish.
There are some differences in tastes between young and middle-aged people, such as spicy chicken and cola chicken wings, Li Yumin and Wang Huisu eat very little, they like to eat steamed sea bass. Li Wanqi and Cheng Yuanyue were the opposite with them, after all, the spicy and thick taste could arouse their appetite even more.
Li Wanqi picked a large piece of fish meat for Sika to eat, the spines had already been picked, Sika ate it in two or three bites, except for the small goldfish he raised couldn't eat, the other fish were still delicious.
Sika stuck out her tongue and licked the juice from her little nose, thinking that it would taste better without green onion and ginger.
Isn't eating fish just a fishy smell!
