Chapter 577: Chinese New Year's Eve

A big iron pot, a big stove, and a big steamer, this is all the kitchen utensils of Dong Shanhe.

There are also more than a dozen large porcelain bowls on a table, which were purchased by Dong Shanhe, not everything Dong Shanhe can make by himself, he also needs to scan a thing in the space from beginning to end, and only by understanding the principle can he make it, which means that in the space, Dong Shanhe is not a god.

Although it is ten bowls, Dong Shanhe does not prepare strictly according to the ten bowls, in fact, the ten bowls are just an imaginary number, ten is many, not necessarily ten.

Of course, the traditional ten bowls are still made in strict accordance with the rules, because in the eyes of many old people, only the traditional ten bowls are the ten bowls, and now the improved ten bowls are no longer the top ten bowls, and the current restaurant says that it is the top ten bowls, but if all the dishes are ordered, there are at least forty or fifty dishes.

The first bowl is whitebait and white fungus soup, the second bowl is stewed hooves with stone fungus, the third bowl is full of round treasures, the fourth bowl is Xiaolong stewed chicken, the fifth bowl is eggplant pancakes, the sixth bowl is heavenly river fish, the seventh bowl is peanut roast pork slices, the eighth bowl is bacon fried garlic, the ninth bowl is the green vegetables rolled in the mushrooms, and the tenth bowl is stewed thousands of shallots.

Not all of these dishes are steamed, only some of them are steamed, but there are still a lot of them that need to be wholeed.

Of course, Qicheng's ten bowls are not tightly only such a routine, as far as Dong Shanhe knows, there are at least two routines, all the way to the wind is actually braised pig ears, pig ears are commonly known as tailwind ears; Shuangfeng Chaoyang, in fact, stewed chicken, two chickens with an orange in between; three yuan and the first, in fact, is sesame stuffed glutinous rice balls; everything is as good as possible, in fact, it is sweet and sour carp; Wuzi Dengke, in fact, it is five kinds of coarse grains, red dates, chestnuts, corn, yams, Purple Sweet Potato, Deer and Crane Tongchun, in fact, is mung bean and lily soup, Qilin Songzi, in fact, is egg dumplings, Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea, in fact, is kelp pork rib soup, the earth is long, in fact, it is braised large intestine, and perfect, in fact, it is potato roast beef.

There is another 10-bowl dish, braised wild boar, Yongshou chicken, Shenquan fish, small crispy pork, grilled lamb chops, old tofu soup, seasonal vegetables, steamed pork ribs with wheat kernels, and pork bone broth

The ten bowls of Qicheng are sea, land, air, poultry and mountain treasures, with excellent meat and vegetable ingredients, braised steamed cold salad casserole, sour, spicy, sweet and salty cooking methods, nutritious utensils and exquisite utensils.

In the end, Dong Shanhe chose some of his favorite dishes among the nearly 30 dishes to be steamed, including steamed pork ribs, steamed fish, steamed meat, Wuzi Dengke and so on.

When Dong Shanhe prepared everything, he put them in the cauldron one by one, "Light the fire and cook." When he was a child, Dong Shanhe often cooked on the fire, and at that time he was still in the countryside, and Dong Shanhe had to sit on the stove at home almost every day, and now he suddenly had a feeling of more than 20 years ago.

There was a pile of firewood piled up under the stove, and soon water vapor was coming out of the steamer.

Dong Shanhe also brought his daughter-in-law over and asked her to sit beside her, looking at herself, while she was also holding her son in her arms.

"Son, you will definitely not use the stove in the future, now look at it, when you grow up, you will never see it again. Dong Shanhe hugged his son and whispered while pointing to the stove.

Liu Miaomiao, who was sitting in front of the stove, rolled her eyes, but Dong Shanhe was telling the truth, when Dong Zhiyuan grew up, he really didn't know what a big iron pot stove was, especially the bellows of hulala.

After more than half an hour, Dong Shanhe brought out all the dishes, in addition to these dishes, the other Dong Shanhe had also been prepared, just waiting for a while.

"This dish is good, you have to make it more often in the future. "It's a good dish, and you're going to have to make it more often in the future." Liu Miaomiao commented while eating.

"I know, I know, there are so many words to eat. Dong Shanhe felt so tired holding his son, his daughter-in-law didn't let himself worry about it, it was rare for him to be so busy, and he didn't know how to feel sorry for himself.

Dong Shanhe's sullenness, Liu Miaomiao had already found out, and when he returned home in the afternoon, Dong Shanhe enjoyed his wife's extreme tenderness, what?

"Tomorrow will be the Chinese New Year's Eve, time flies so fast!" Lying on the sofa, Dong Shanhe sighed endlessly.

I got space before last year's New Year, and my life has also been turned upside down last year, and after a year of development, I am no longer the same as last year.

I don't know why Dong Shanhe always thinks more and more, but the more he thinks about it, the more tired he becomes, "I don't want to, let him go, Lao Tzu is happy." Dong Shanhe turned off the TV after speaking, and casually threw the remote control aside.

"What are you doing? I haven't watched it yet?" asked Liu Miaomiao, who was watching the TV series, dissatisfied.

"Of course it's going to bed, haven't you looked at the time? It's eleven o'clock. Dong Shanhe stared at Liu Miaomiao with wide eyes and said.

"It's only eleven o'clock, why do you go to bed now?" Liu Miaomiao's words were hugged by Dong Shanhe before she finished speaking.

"Nonsense, why don't you sleep, go !!" There was a bang, the bedroom door was closed, and everything fell silent.

Chinese New Year's Eve, at eight o'clock in the morning, Dong Shanhe woke up on time, although he worked hard for more than an hour last night, but now he is still in good spirits, but Liu Miaomiao is listless.

"It's all you, it's all you, it's all you, get out of here. Liu Miaomiao, who was taking care of the little guy, saw Dong Shanhe wake up, and immediately gave him several pink punches.

"Anla, I don't know who died yesterday and didn't beg for mercy?" Before Dong Shanhe finished speaking, he was hit by a pillow thrown by Liu Miaomiao, so he had to put on his clothes and make breakfast.

After eating breakfast in a hurry, Dong Shanhe drove Liu Miaomiao to his hometown, because it had been agreed that he would return to his hometown for the New Year on Chinese New Year's Eve, and everyone would come.

When Dong Shanhe was still on the road, he received a call from his father and uncle, asking when he would come.

Uncle also asked by the way what ingredients Dong Shanhe brought over, but he was waiting for Dong Shanhe's ingredients to make lunch.

The rule in Qicheng is generally to eat lunch, lunch is the most lively, and dinner is relatively less important.

This is different from other places, whether it is Chinese New Year's Eve or Mid-Autumn Festival, even if it is marriage and childbirth, it is the most important at noon.

Dong Shanhe drove the car and said to his uncle, "I'm halfway there, I'll be home soon, and you can see what ingredients I brought right away." ”

"It's okay for you to drive, when I first came, the road was full of cars. Uncle asked with concern.

"It's okay, it's Chinese New Year's Eve, can you still not get stuck in traffic?" Dong Shanhe said with a smile.

In fact, he is now having a headache, there are a lot of cars on the national highway, and the speed of his car is not as fast as the speed of the battery car, but there is no way, even if he wants to take the small road, there is no way to do it, because from Qicheng to the south, there are a total of five coal mines, and there are subsidence areas everywhere along the way to the south of Qicheng, unless Dong Shanhe can fly, he can only drive the car slowly.

"Then hang up the phone, you drive and pay attention to safety. Uncle thought Dong Shanhe was good for himself, and took the phone to talk to him.

"It's okay uncle, I'm a car phone, I'm driving with both hands now, it's safe." Dong Shanhe explained, so that the uncle could rest assured.

The two of them chatted for a few more words before hanging up the phone, "It seems that you will also learn to drive in the future." Dong Shanhe said to Liu Miaomiao, who was sitting in the back.

"What do you learn to drive? Liu Miaomiao asked rhetorically, and suddenly Dong Shanhe was speechless to refute.

"If you learn to drive, you can choose the car in the garage and drive whichever one you want. Dong Shanhe took the thirty or forty cars in his garage to lure Liu Miaomiao.

"Can't you sit if you don't know how to drive? It's not like I said you have to drive whichever car you drive. Liu Miaomiao didn't let in at all, and continued to scare Dong Shanhe.

Well, when he didn't say it, Dong Shanhe had to continue to concentrate on driving, and he didn't come to Qicheng until half an hour later.

Originally, the whole journey only took half an hour, but now Dong Shanhe drove for an hour to come home.

But Dong Shanhe knew that the day of the 26th day of the lunar month was even more congested, because it was a good day, and in Qicheng, the 26th day of the lunar month could be said to be a good day for marriage comparable to the 51th month.

My mother also said in the WeChat group that day that there was a traffic jam on the national highway that day, and the road was blocked for more than ten miles, from the northernmost point of Qi Town to the southernmost point, and it was not blocked until the afternoon.

Dong Shanhe was also glad that he didn't choose to come back that day, otherwise he would definitely be stuck in traffic for a long time and couldn't move.

In fact, Dong Shanhe still saw traffic jams when he was in Qizhen two years ago, and the more reason is that the people who drive are not qualified, either you plug in horizontally or he is going in the opposite direction, anyway, no one will let anyone, you don't let me, I won't let you, in general, traffic jams are jams, who is afraid of whom, if you have the ability, wait?

Everyone has such an idea, which is why it causes such a traffic jam, and this reason is not at all different from the imperial capital demon capital, and people have a traffic jam with many cars.

"Xiaohe, if you don't come again, we will all starve to death at noon. As soon as Dong Shanhe walked into the door, the uncle shouted.

"Isn't this coming, there are too many cars on the road, it's not even ten o'clock, not busy. Dong Shanhe was not worried at all.

"I'm not waiting for you, I'm almost ready for the rest of the dishes, just waiting for your ingredients. Looking at the big bag and small bag that Dong Shanhe was carrying, the uncle asked matter-of-factly, "What are you doing here?"

"Uncle, you can see for yourself. Dong Shanhe put the two big pockets on the ground and said to the uncle.

"Yo, this is Zhusun, if you burn the old goose, it tastes good, you can make it. "This is morels, I really didn't expect you to be able to knock this thing down, it's still so big, okay, let's make another morel mushroom and dendrobium pork bone soup at noon." "All mushrooms are basically suitable for stews, and morels are no exception.

"This tiger palm mushroom can be fried with Jinhua ham, and it tastes very good. "It's best to grill this matsutake mushroom directly with charcoal, and we don't seem to have charcoal grilling equipment at home." Looking at a large bag of fresh matsutake mushrooms, Uncle felt itchy, after all, matsutake mushrooms directly charcoal grilled are the most delicious, but this one doesn't seem to have this equipment.

"Uncle, I brought fruit carbon, you can rest assured, since they have all been brought, can you still prepare, I still have something in the car, I'll go get it again, uncle, hurry up and prepare!" Dong Shanhe turned around and went to the car to get the ingredients after he finished talking to the uncle.

In less than two minutes, Dong Shanhe brought two buckets of ingredients, this time they were two large plastic buckets, which were all ingredients that Dong Shanhe had worked hard to find in the space last night, including the horseshoe turtle that his brother wanted to eat, as well as all kinds of green shrimp, crayfish, sea bass, whitebait, anchovy and other delicious ingredients, of course, all kinds of seafood specially prepared by Dong Shanhe, oysters, small yellow croaker, grouper, sea cucumber, abalone and so on.

"Why did you bring so many kinds of fish, there are five or six kinds of fish, can we still eat so many fish at one time?" The uncle glanced at it and saw that there were six or seven kinds of fish in these two large plastic buckets.

"Uncle, there is more than enough every year, three kinds at noon, and three more at night, besides, there are so many people in our family, can we still eat?"

Isn't it just a few fish, if he and Liu Miaomiao let go of eating, the two of them can eat it, but there is no need to do it.

"Okay, then I'll start cooking. "Uncle sees that the ingredients are ready, so let's start cooking.

As soon as he took two steps, the uncle suddenly remembered, "Where's the bighead carp? Bighead carp is fathead fish, and it is also a must-have thing to make chopped pepper fish head.

"Of course I brought it, if I didn't bring it, how would I eat chopped pepper fish head. "Dong Shanhe really brought a big bighead carp, which weighed at least twenty catties.

When Dong Shanhe came back with a big plastic bucket again, the uncle looked at the bighead carp helplessly, "You just let our family eat a whole fish feast at noon." "This bighead carp of more than 20 catties, even if it is a fish head, has a third of the weight, and the weight of seven or eight catties is not small.

"I'll have to find a suitable iron pot. "It is impossible to stew these seven or eight catties of fish head in a small iron pot, so you can only find a larger iron pot.

Fortunately, when I moved, all the things were put away for my grandmother, including two large iron pots, one for six mouths and one for twelve.

"Uncle, I'll make noodles, let's cook together. "The reason why Dong Shanhe wants to make noodles is of course to prepare chicken noodles to be made later, stewed chicken noodles cake, which is a famous local dish in Qicheng and an indispensable dish on Chinese New Year's Eve.

As soon as the rooster cries all over the world, there must be chickens and fish on the table for the New Year, without which it cannot be called the New Year.

"Okay, I'll call your brother back later, and we'll do it together. He said as he gathered the ingredients.

The tradition of Dong Shanhe's family is that men cook, and this habit has been passed down from grandfather to Dong Shanhe's generation, as for whether his children and nephews will cook in the future, I don't know.
