Chapter 636: Tempting Pig's Feet Ginger Vinegar (4/4, for the reward of the East, West, North and South)
"Hello, your Sahara Express courier, please sign for it. ”
At noon that day, Yang Yi went to the doorman of the villa area and signed for his package. Seeing the courier of Sahara Express who was cold in the wind, Yang Yi held the package with his left hand, stretched out his right hand, shook hands with him, and said praisefully: "Hard work, the package was delivered in time, I just need it!"
The courier withdrew his hand, scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and said: "It has always been our pursuit of Sahara Express to deliver your express mail faster, better and more conveniently. ”
It's quite official, it seems that after Li Long came to power, these couriers have indeed undergone very strict business training.
"That's a good point, but you also have to pay attention to rest, the body is ...... It is the capital of your work and life. Yang Yi patted the other party's shoulder and encouraged him with satisfaction.
After Yang Yi finished speaking, he went back with his package, leaving the courier with a confused face.
Who is this? The tone is so loud? What kind of government official is it?
didn't know that the object of the package he just delivered was one of his bosses, and the courier thought that this was Yang Yi's habitual remarks in a high position. After all, in this villa area, the people who live in it are either rich or expensive.
The courier didn't know that it was his big boss who sent the package.
"This is the vinegar sent by Fu Jun. After Yang Yi returned home, he explained to Murphy while unpacking the package, "He told me about a famous dish in Guangdong Province that is very nourishing for women in confinement, pig's feet ginger vinegar, but to make this dish, I have to use Tianding sweet vinegar produced in Guangdong Province, so I have been waiting for him to buy it and send it to me." ”
Pork knuckle ginger vinegar is not only suitable for women in confinement, it is suitable for all ages, and its nutritional value is very high. Therefore, of course, Yang Yi asked Fu Jun to send him the most authentic vinegar, which was made by the old vinegar factory, not an assembly line product on the market.
A large box of vinegar, more than 20 bottles, is dozens of catties, enough for Yang Yi to use for one or two months.
"Why haven't you heard of this dish? I haven't seen it in a Cantonese restaurant before. Murphy hugged Xiao Yu and asked curiously.
"I don't know why I don't have it, but it may not be cost-effective...... Yang Yi shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "This dish is very troublesome to make, it has to be cooked several times, and there are a lot of ingredients added. ”
The authentic practice of pork knuckle ginger vinegar is really troublesome, start preparing half a month in advance, boil for a few hours a day, cook for half a month, and wait for the child to be born, you can give it to the mother.
But now Yang Yi, who knows this dish, can't wait so long, and at that time Murphy has already passed the confinement period! Besides, the cut ginger can basically absorb the flavor without soaking for a month, and the boiled pork knuckle ginger vinegar is still very delicious.
Not much to say, in order to let his family taste "pig's feet ginger vinegar" at night, Yang Yi began to get busy at noon.
In order to make this dish, Yang Yi prepared the ingredients a few days in advance, including buying a pot-bellied clay pot, which is enough to cook more than a dozen catties of food.
The pig's feet are bought in the morning, they are very fresh, blanched with boiling water to remove the foam, and drain the water. Peel the ginger, cut into thick slices and stir-fry in a pan. Eggs are also boiled and then peeled, so that all the ingredients are ready.
Including Tianding sweet vinegar, all the ingredients were boiled in a potbelly clay pot, Yang Yi was afraid that it would be too sour, and put a piece of rock sugar in it. Once the heat is boiling, reduce the heat to low and simmer slowly.
After simmering for a few hours, Yang Yi turned off the heat, cooled for a while, and waited until the afternoon when he was ready to pick up Xixi, and then turned on the fire and simmered for a second time.
"Ma Ma, brother, I'm back!" Xixi was picked up from kindergarten by her father, and after getting out of the car, she shouted happily, regardless of whether her mother in the house would hear it or not.
I saw that under the gray and white sky when twilight was about to fall, a little girl in a bright yellow/colored down jacket ran towards the villa with cheerful steps.
The little girl's nose is very sensitive, and as soon as she enters the house, she smells it, which is her favorite sweet and sour fragrance!
"Wow! it's so fragrant!" Xixi's eyes lit up all of a sudden, and she didn't bother to go up to find her mother and play with Xiao Yu, she twisted her little head and explored.
Yang Yi carried his daughter's schoolbag, and saw that the little girl was the same as the bun, sniffing left and right, looking for it all the way, and he followed it funny.
Of course, where else can such an appetizing aroma waft from other than the kitchen?
Like Treasure Hunting, Xixi finally found the source of the fragrance in the kitchen - a huge clay pot!
"Baba, what is this?" the little girl asked expectantly, swallowing the saliva that she couldn't help but hold back when she smelled the fragrance.
"This is a delicious dish recommended to us by Uncle Fu Jun, called pork knuckle vinegar. Yang Yi smiled slightly and said, "Fragrant, right?"
The little girl nodded her little head vigorously, and looked at her happy little eyes, obviously a little impatient.
"Then when we have dinner later, we'll eat together!" Yang Yi smiled and rubbed Xixi's little head.
During this time, Yang Yi didn't have to worry about dinner, after Xi Xi came back, Dong Yue'e and Zheng Shuyi started to cook dinner, unless Yang Yi wanted to cook something for Xi Xi or Murphy to eat, he needed to cook.
……
At dinner time, except for Yang Huan, who lived on the side of the school, the family gathered together again, ready to eat.
"After you go back, you mainly have to check the account book, and other miscellaneous matters, you let Uncle Dong Qi deal with it, since it is a project in the village, we are not suitable to involve too much. Yang Yi served Xixi with vegetables, and at the same time taught Yang Qing face-to-face.
After playing in Jiangcheng for more than a month, Yang Qing and Zheng Shuyi will go back early tomorrow.
Because the road leading from the village to the county seat has been being repaired, Yang Qing managed the funds as Yang Yi's representative, and when the wages of the workers were paid at the end of the year, Yang Qing had to be present to sign.
In addition, the end of next month is also the Spring Festival, many customs to be done before the Spring Festival, and there can be no one at home, Yang Chonggui and Dong Yue'e are ready to accompany their grandchildren to the Spring Festival and then go back together, so they can only work hard Yang Qing to go back to take care of it first.
Yang Qing went back, and Zheng Shuyi naturally had to go back with him.
It was rude to interrupt the conversation of adults, and Xixi waited anxiously for her father to finish talking to her uncle before she pouted and said to her father: "Baba, where is the pig's foot vinegar? I want to eat delicious pig's foot vinegar!"
Didn't you say yes, at dinner, you can eat delicious pork knuckle vinegar? Why don't you see it on the table?
All Xixi thought about was the tempting sweet and sour aroma, but Wangmei couldn't quench her thirst, and now she felt bored when she saw other meals.
"It's sour, you have to eat something before you can eat that. Otherwise, my stomach will hurt. Murphy was beside him, whispering softly to his daughter.
Although Yang Yi and his parents-in-law take care of him, Murphy is still not easy, because now Xiao Yu is sticking to his mother as long as he is awake!
Maybe it's because he smells his mother's milk that he can feel at ease, but if he is held by someone else, he will cry immediately. Even if Yang Yi wants to hug his son, he can only enjoy it after the little guy falls asleep.
The sad Yang Yi still has to share the time with Yang Chonggui and Dong Yue'e, especially during the day, if Xiao Yu falls asleep, Dong Yue'e will rush to carry her grandson to the floor-to-ceiling window of the living room to bathe in the winter sun, Yang Yi has absolutely no chance to snatch his son from his mother at this time......
It's not that Murphy doesn't care about Xiao Yu, she's also tired! She has to hurry up, take a rest while Xiao Yu is asleep, and get up at night to feed Xiao Yu and change diapers!
However, fortunately, in addition to sticking to his mother, Xiao Yu is relatively obedient, and now he has gradually formed a little habit, except for crying when he is particularly insecure when he is hugged by others, and only when he wants to drink milk, he will cry a few times, and if he urinates, he will either not say anything, or just a few mmmmmm
Now that Murphy is talking closer to him, the little guy will still look at his mother, and his little mouth is slightly open, so cute that people don't want it.
I'm really tired and happy!
Xixi knew that her mother was very hard, so her mother spoke, although she was a little sullen, she also obediently lowered her little head to pick up rice.
Yang Yi sandwiched some fish and meat for Xixi, as well as the shiitake mushrooms she usually likes to eat, and encouraged: "Come on, after eating this, Dad can give you pig's feet vinegar!"
"But, can I eat more?" Xixi said with her little head raised and her mouth bulging.
"Yes, if you like it, you can eat it today, tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow!" Yang Yi opened his hand and smiled exaggeratedly.
"Really?" attracted by the big cake drawn by her father, the little girl's sullenness just now suddenly disappeared, she grabbed her chopsticks, and asked happily.
