96. Shimizu fish

After sending the children to school, Ao Muyang went back to deal with these clear water fish and prepared to make the dish of baked miscellaneous fish in an iron pot.

This dish is very common, it is a fisherman's home cooking, it has been passed down for a long time, and it used to be stewed in a small iron pot, and it was a dish of poor families.

But in Ao Muyang's hands, this dish is naturally not so simple, he uses it to make hard dishes.

Since it is a hard dish, it is naturally not easy to make.

He sat at the door and cut open the belly of the fish with a knife, squeezed his fingers to remove the internal organs, and then put it in the water to wash it again, pouring a little cooking wine into the water to remove the fish.

The small fish are cleaned one by one, and they are also dried one by one.

After drying, the next step is baking, which is where the name "baking" the trash fish comes from.

He took the small fish and hung them at the door with a wire string, then mixed the peanut shells and melon seed shells he had collected earlier, as well as chaff, dried orange peels, wood chips, and the like, lit them, covered them, and began to smoke and roast them.

This practice is similar to fire-roasted fish, this Xiangxi side dish is one of the favorite dishes in the world, famous all over the world in the sixties and seventies, and is popular among working people all over the country.

However, this dish is quite laborious to make, and small fish and shrimp are suitable for snacks, for the people of that era, it is obviously more important to solve the problem of food and clothing.

Later, the craze for fire-roasted fish gradually subsided.

Ao Muyang learned the recipe of this dish by coincidence, and then he pondered it himself, and paired it with the fish used to make an iron pot to bake miscellaneous fish, and found that the taste was better.

After baking for a few hours, the small trash fish turned into small dried fish, Ao Muyang then added peanut oil into the pot, just a little oil, the oil was hot, he put in the small dried fish, and quickly fried it to golden brown.

The general, who was wallowing in the quagmire at the door, rushed over, crouching beside him twitching his nose, squinting his eyes and drooping his tongue, drooling water.

Ao Muyang smiled, took a piece of chopped chili pepper and smeared it on its mouth.

This general is not spicy, the dog habitually licks its lips with its tongue, and prefers to lick its lips after being stimulated, even if its mouth is very spicy, it will do so, because this is a subconscious behavior, and it can't control it.

So the more he licked it, the hotter and hotter it was, the general wailed, and ran out again to roll in the mire, and after rolling a few times, the spicy taste on his mouth became lighter, which made him prefer the quagmire environment.

Ao Muyang succeeded in tricking and laughed.

The dried fish was fried, and he cleaned it up and began to stir-fry it with green onions, ginger and garlic, and when the fragrance came up, he put in a large number of peppers, peppercorns, and star anise to stir-fry.

Later, he had to add spicy sauce, green and red peppers, etc., and stir-fry the red oil until the end, and he also put the cut cucumber to taste, and finally poured water to heat the soup.

The light rain fell, and the water in the pot was quickly stained with a layer of red oil, and with the sound of 'goo-goo', a spicy aroma came out of the iron pot.

The general is not coming back this time.

In the evening, the deer held the umbrella to lead the way into the door, the sea breeze was blowing, the drizzle was like silk, she held a small flower umbrella in her hand, the sleeves fell, revealing half of the white swaying forearms, the crystal raindrops fell on the umbrella surface and made a ticking sound and splashed, such as big beads and small beads falling on the jade plate.

Behind her curling figure, Ao Zhisheng, Zhu Chunhong, two teachers and a rough man were talking and laughing.

This rough man is the contractor of the town's engineering team, his name is Sun Fuhua, and his family is from Qiantan Town, all of whom are fellow villagers.

After entering the door, Ao Muyang put melon seeds, peanuts and snacks on the table first, he prepared fruit tea, juice and green tea to concoct, and drank it comfortably in summer.

Lu Zhizi poured tea for the three of them, and he went to serve the cold dishes on the table first, salted duck eggs, boiled potato shreds, pickled pepper fish skin, sauce fried snails, scallion oil kelp shreds, and choy sum jellyfish, all of which were complete.

Although the weather is not hot these days, it is dog days after all, and you still have to eat cold dishes.

In addition, he paired two home-cooked green dishes, plus spicy stir-fried clams and garlic oysters, two common dishes in fishermen, and finally added an iron pot to bake miscellaneous fish as a hard dish, and the meal was formed.

Ao Muyang gave Sun Fuhua and Ao Zhisheng cigarettes, Sun Fuhua should have heard of his prestige and was flattered: "Come by yourself, I have fire here, Brother Xiaoyang is polite and polite." ”

Ao Zhisheng calmly accepted the cigarette he handed him and took his fire, and then squinted his eyes and swallowed the clouds.

Next, Ao Muyang said: "Let's eat this pot of fish first, while it's hot, it's a little spicy, see if you can eat it." ”

The fish has been dried and baked, and because no oil is used in this process, the fresh flavor of the fish is perfectly preserved.

Later, when the oil is passed, the small fish is already cooked, so it is only the appearance of the oil, the meat inside can not eat the oil, the surface is crispy and the inside is crispy, the outside is fragrant and the inside is fresh.

In addition, it has been stewed in soup, and the skin also has sesame pepper oil, and a fish has a variety of flavors from the outside to the inside, and the texture is also varied, and several people who eat it are full of praise.

"It's numb and spicy, fresh and fragrant, and the taste is so beautiful. Zhu Chunhong swallowed the fish meat and smiled, "Oh, Yangzi's craftsmanship is really good, whoever marries you in the future, you don't have to worry about eating." ”

Ao Zhisheng was also very satisfied with his students, he squinted his eyes and smiled: "Not only don't worry about eating, don't worry about anything in life, Xiaoyang can solve it, definitely a good boy." ”

Their words meant something, but they were actually meant to Lu Zhizi.

Ao Muyang is not stupid, he understands that the two teachers have good things to say to him, but he thinks that this is not good, it is tantamount to bullying others Lu Zhizi and being alone.

So he smiled and said: "It's easy to make a dish, Mr. Zhu's rice is also very fragrant, I loved to eat Mr. Zhu's steamed buns when I was a child." ”

Sun Fuhua took a sip of wine and said: "Brother Xiaoyang is modest, you can do this, I heard about it a few days ago, the person who can make Yang Shuyong eat deflated is absolutely rare, and you can obey the hooligans in the county, and you are the number one." ”

After a pause, he simply gave a thumbs up: "I'm not praising you, you are definitely this!"

Ao Muyang smiled, isn't this praising himself?

Lu Zhizi said decently: "Then it's my turn to express my opinion next?" Well, Brother Muyang has many advantages, I'll list them one by one?"

Ao Muyang dug a piece of fish scales for her and said with a smile: "Don't be in a hurry, you eat first, and then praise my merits after you have a full meal." ”

Then, he lightly changed the topic: "Brother Sun, I am going to build a small building behind Dongbian Village, two or three floors, how much will it cost?"

"It depends on what you want to do, the minimum is 150,000, and the maximum can be 2 million, which is hard to say. Sun Fuhua chewed the pickled pepper fish skin 'crunch', the more he chewed, the more flavorful it became, and with a sip of wine, the taste was even more amazing.

Ao Muyang pondered for a while and said, "Let's build it according to 500,000 yuan, you go back and give me a drawing, I'll see if it's okay, if it's okay, start construction in a few days." ”

At present, the business is coming to the door again, Sun Fuhua is proud: "Hey, don't look back, I'll make a call and ask my guy to take out the drawings tonight, it's ...... meaning."

In fact, most of the houses in rural areas do not need drawings, and they can rely on the experience of the engineering team, anyway, the structure of the houses is generally the same, and there are not as many elaborate buildings as in the cities.

A simple drawing was sent over more than an hour later, Ao Muyang licked a pair of chopsticks and added two more dishes, and the group discussed around Xiaolou.

Eventually, the wine and food were full, and the matter of the house was largely decided.
