Chapter 312

When you're in your hometown, you're invited to dinner, and it's basically noon. But it's different here, whoever invites a guest to dinner, that is, it is arranged in the evening. Because everyone has to go to work in the afternoon, if this meal is at noon, it will not be good at all.

Their family's meal is naturally in the evening, so in the morning, Li Mei can still make breakfast without hurry, and cut the vegetables that dried the water yesterday.

Cutting this dish, you don't talk about knife skills, you just need to cut the vegetables into fine pieces, so it's very simple. Li Mei first selected the kimchi and put it into the small jar dedicated to kimchi, Li Mei had already made the salt water last night.

The most important thing to make kimchi is the salt water, if the salt water is not good, the kimchi made will not taste good. The best is to use old salt water, the so-called old salt water is the salt water that has been soaked for several years, this is the best. If you don't have this at home, you can go to a neighbor's house, or a relative's or friend's house to find some, so you don't have to bother to do it yourself. But in this army, Li Mei has not met a military wife who is from their Yu City, so there is no way to steal it, so she can only do it herself.

Making salt water is actually very simple, that is, boiling the water, and when the water is cold, just put the salt directly in it, which is really very simple.

Li Mei put the selected vegetables directly into the small jar, and then sprinkled the jar with an appropriate amount of salt. This amount depends on whether you eat salty or light. However, when you make pickles or kimchi, you basically put more salt. The main reason is that if you put less salt, these things will be bad.

However, making kimchi looks very simple, and that's the basic step. But the taste of kimchi made by these different people is very different. It's like her mother and her milk.

The two of them also make kimchi, but the kimchi made by her mother is quite delicious, but if she changes her milk to make it, it will rot a jar of kimchi almost every day, and I don't know what is going on. Fortunately, her grandmother is also self-aware, knowing that she is not good at this craft, and after having a daughter-in-law, she has never made kimchi again, and every time she makes it at home, she lets her daughters-in-law do it, and she only eats ready-made.

Maybe people think that Li Mei is exaggerating when she says that she spoils a jar of kimchi, and this kimchi can't be eaten as a meal, who makes several jars of kimchi every year.

Li Mei is not an exaggeration at all, and each family really makes a few jars of kimchi. Don't think that if you do too much, you won't have enough to eat at all. Every family is basically a dozen people, this season when there is no food, who doesn't grab a bowl of kimchi for a meal, just like that, don't make a few jars of kimchi, it's not enough at all.

For example, radish is the most common ingredient for kimchi. And the freshly soaked radish is also the most delicious, crunchy. But after a long time, the radish will turn sour, and it will not taste as fresh as it tastes fresh. But in this era when everything is lacking, no one dislikes such a thing as kimchi being sour.

After soaking the kimchi, Li Mei began to chop vegetables, there were not many vegetables, and these things were often done, so the speed was very fast. After cutting the greens, mix the salt with the greens and mix the salt evenly. Wait for the salt code to go on for a day, and tomorrow you can go out to dry afterwards.

Li Mei did all these things in one morning, and when the lunch was ready and eaten, Li Mei began to prepare dinner. Don't look at the early time now, but there is a stove at home, and all dishes have to be cooked in this pot, so Li Mei naturally has to prepare early.

Li Mei first boiled hot water to wash out the bacon, because the bacon is smoked, it is more stolen, and every time the bacon is cooked, it must be washed with hot water several times.

After washing the bacon, throw the bacon into the pot and boil. And while cooking this bacon, Li Mei also got half a pot of radishes and put it in to cook together. The radish cooked in this way not only has oil and water, but also has the taste of bacon. It's also a good dish.

Yesterday, when Li Mei was thinking about the menu, she didn't expect radish to be cooked with bacon, but she remembered it later. Sometimes people's memory is like this, when you concentrate on thinking about it, you really can't think of it, and after a while he suddenly remembers.

After the bacon was boiled into the pot, Li Mei began to make the fresh pork she bought today. Li Mei first took a knife to separate the fat and lean meat, and after separating, the lean meat was put aside first, and Li Mei began to rectify the fat meat. The people in their Chongqing City usually burn the skin of the fat meat before making meat, mainly to burn the pig hair on the fat meat.

It's very easy to roast pork skin, before Li Mei is reborn, at the stall where you buy meat in the vegetable market, you buy meat from him, and he can burn your pork skin, you just take it back and wash it and cook it directly.

There was no such good service before, and the meat I bought had to be burned by myself.

Li Mei cooked the fat and soaked it in hot water, so that it would be easy to wash it. After washing the fatty meat, throw the fatty meat into the pot and cook it with the bacon. In this way, you can save not only time but also some firewood.

The contents of the pot continued to boil, and Li Mei began to cut the lean meat again, and the lean meat was also washed three times with hot water. Li Mei stir-fried lean meat is usually cut into slices, and shredded meat is rarely fried. And when cutting lean meat, you can't cut it along the warp, you have to cut it horizontally, so that the fried lean meat is more tender. These are all the experiences that Li Mei has summed up as a housewife for most of her life.

After the lean meat is cut, two large white radishes are cut, and the radishes are shredded and ready to be served cold.

When Wang's sister-in-law came with the swallows, Li Mei almost finished the dishes by herself, and she could fry them when the men came back.

"Meimei, you're moving really fast, I also said to come and help you, then I know you're all ready."

"After I had lunch, I was idle anyway, so I thought about washing the dishes, cutting what should be cut, and when the men came back, I just fried them." Li Mei said with a smile. If she can, she can do it herself, and Li Mei generally doesn't want to trouble others.

"You're too prepared, aren't you?" Looking at the cooked meat on the stove, Sister-in-law Wang was a little speechless, and felt that Li Mei was too loser.

Li Mei explained simply, "I came here to say that I was going to invite everyone to dinner, but I didn't have time, so I discussed it with my family. ”

Since you are going to have a treat, you should naturally do your best to make the meal richer and make others satisfied. Also, this time their family invited guests to dinner, and after eating, I don't know when the next time will be, so it's nothing to prepare a little richly.
