Chapter 41 Wang's Recipes
The so-called Wang family recipe was proposed by Wang Yong, a foodie, that is, the dishes that the whole family likes to eat are recorded along with the raw materials, etc., forming a recipe recorded in the notebook bought by Wang Yong.
Now, under Wang Yong's cheating from future memories, the Wang family's recipes have more than 80 classic dishes, and the dishes of the eight major cuisines plus other local cuisines are all complete.
However, whether this is recorded in the real practice of others, that has to be said. For example, the classic Sichuan cuisine of shredded pork with fish flavor, boiled pork slices, garlic white meat, mapo tofu, etc., because Wang Yong is not a professional chef, so the recipe of these dishes recorded by it can only be similar to the shape.
However, for the current Wang family, it is enough for them to marvel at how delicious it is in the world. There wasn't a single dish they'd heard of before, let alone eaten.
As time went on, the recipes became more and more important to the whole family, and many local dishes were added. For example, Wang Hai's favorite sauerkraut and pork stewed vermicelli, such as Tian Xiuhua's favorite chicken stewed pine mushroom improved by Wang Yong.
Even Wang Liang, a little kid, fell in love with his own food under the influence of his brother Wang Yong. At his insistence, a so-called delicacy that no one but he wanted to try was included in the family recipe.
One day, this kid had a whim, and when her mother fried her favorite Qianzi (transliteration, it is a kind of soy product wrapped in a powdered lattice of bean products and rolled into strips, and then cut into small pieces of about three centimeters, fried in an oil pan, the appearance is golden and crispy, and the meat filling inside is tender and delicious), the vegetables are starched and thrown into it to be fried.
It's very similar to the fried skewers of later generations, but it's a pity that this kid didn't choose the materials. He deep-fried cucumbers and tomatoes, two of his favorite vegetables.
As a result, after it was fried, no one liked it except him. But this kid cried and shouted that his brother had to enter the fried dish he invented (the name of this kid) into the family recipe.
In the end, Wang Yong saw that he was crying pitifully, so he reminded him a few words, replacing cucumbers and tomatoes with cabbage, potatoes, beans, cauliflower, and various fruits, and also told him that this practice had been around for a long time, and he did not invent it at all.
Wang Liang, who has delicious food, can still take care of this, after he fried a small half of the basin with great interest, he didn't let go of the basin, and he ate three meals in a row and shouted that he hadn't eaten enough!
Slowly, the news of the Wang family's recipes spread in the village. Later, Qin Lang, the deputy county magistrate, and Zhang Chunxiang, a person in the city, found out, so they brought ingredients over every once in a while to have a good meal.
It was through the mouths of these two people that the good dishes that everyone in Wang Hai's family of four could cook spread among their acquaintances, attracting many people to come and try it.
Especially Liu Biao, because he is close and has a car, he has to come at least two or three times a week. But because of this, Wang Yong's family doesn't have to go to the market to buy meat, fish or anything at all.
When these people come to eat, they will bring a bunch of ingredients with them, mainly all kinds of meat and fish. What beef, mutton, pork, chicken, duck goose, rabbit, the family can't eat at all, can only give to the surrounding neighbors and nearby relatives and friends.
For example, Wang Yong's third aunt's house, because of the fact that the building near the water has the first moon, there has been no shortage of meat to eat this year. If nothing else, you can definitely guarantee at least one meal of meat every day.
In addition to these common meats, there are also a lot of wild meats that also make Wang Yong and Wang Liang's little brothers eat a lot of oil!
For example, roe deer meat, wild boar, venison, and wild goose meat, which are rarely seen in the local area, at this time, rural people can pay attention to what to protect animals, and they will definitely kill and eat meat.
People can't eat enough, who cares if you protect or not?
Beef and mutton from the grassland, mountain delicacies from the northeast, fruits from the south, seafood from the coast, crabs, prawns, sea cucumbers, and all kinds of shellfish.
Where have you ever seen so many things before? Not to mention eating, I haven't heard of it. It's like a sea cucumber, not only Wang Hai, but also most of the people in the village know for the first time that there is ginseng in the sea?
It is precisely because of eating meat every day that Wang Yong and the noble little brothers are obviously much stronger than their peers. Especially Wang Yong, who was frail and sick before, has changed amazingly.
In more than a year, his weight has increased by more than 30 pounds, and his size has grown by more than ten centimeters, from the original one meter to more than one meter and three now, and he has become a "big man" among his classmates.
The classmates who used to bully Wang Yong no longer dared to bully him. Under his golden egg offensive, he soon gathered a group of loyal fans and fans around him, who surrounded him every day, hoping to get his invitation to eat a big meal at his house.
After getting to know Wang Laifu, the chef, Wang Yong pestered him with a dead face and learned all kinds of aquatic and game practices. In particular, his favorite fish has been added to more than a dozen new ways at once.
From a single fish stew in the past, to what fish dumplings, fish porridge, fish soup, steamed fish, braised fish, sauce stew, stew, sweet and sour, spicy, different varieties of fish dishes made in various flavors have made Wang Yong praised a lot in front of people.
No, the old aunt of the old grandmother's family in the village got married and returned to the banquet and found Wang Yong. The old brother-in-law's house is from this village, and the distance is not far, and it takes about ten minutes to walk.
Tomorrow is the day to return to the door, half a month in advance, the old lady personally came to Wang Yong's house to invite Wang Yong, the sixth grandson (Wang Yong is the sixth among the boys in the old Wang family), to go out of the mountain, and asked him to show his hand at the aunt's return banquet and make a few fish for everyone to taste.
Can this not be promised? I have to say yes! Wang Yong only remembers his grandmother, whose grandfather died when his father was not married.
After his grandmother died, his grandmother treated him like a grandson, and every time he went to his house, he would definitely have something delicious to keep. Walnut shortbread, shortbread, orange juice, or a few orange bananas or something that was rare at the time.
And my aunt is not good to him, according to my mother, I almost grew up with my aunt. When he was a child, because his parents took his grandmother to other places for treatment several times, the young Wang Yong was handed over to his aunt to take him. Eating, drinking, and sleeping did not end until his grandmother died and Wang Yong was able to run.
Yesterday, the fish was bought by the uncle from the wholesale farmers' market in Licheng, a neighboring county, with some other meat, vegetables, condiments and so on.
Wang Yong went over to take a look, and it was all about two catties of carp. It's definitely a symbol of luxury in this year! Generally speaking, even the wedding banquet is just a table of carp for the mother's family, and the others are replaced by some cheap silver carp.
There is no way, who made everyone not rich at this time, and there is not much money in their pockets at all. Married once, but there are very few people who do not borrow money and do not owe debts.
Of course, it's better to marry a girl, after all, there is a bride price to support it. But Wang Yong knew that the old lady who felt sorry for the old girl and was not short of money kept all the bride price money was replaced with furniture and electrical appliances for the old aunt to marry.
This homecoming banquet was organized by the old couple with their own savings, and fortunately, the old man was a worker in a cement factory in the county. Although I still have to ride my bicycle to work four or five days a week, I remember that I was completely retired in 00.
There is an income of more than 300 yuan a month, which is almost a salary level that many cadres cannot reach. No way, the old man is old, it is said that he is the first batch of workers recruited after the establishment of the factory, and the long service is scary, more than 30 years.
300 yuan a month, let alone in the countryside, even in the city, is enough to afford the life of a family of four. So, the old man is really not bad for money!
The old man earns a salary, and the other children in the family have already started a family, like the eldest granddaughter, Wang Hong is already in junior high school. The eldest daughter, the youngest child, got married, and the old couple discussed with the three sons and the eldest daughter in the family, this matter must be done in a big way!
If you want to handle this matter in the future, you won't have a chance, and the old man is ready to shiver one last time. It also let the people in the village see the strength of the old Wang family's lineage.
So, this homecoming banquet is a bit of a big deal! Generally speaking, whoever has a happy event in the village will break the sky, that is, hold a twelve-thirteen table! But my aunt's homecoming banquet was prepared according to twenty-five tables! The relatives and friends of the family have all been notified.
And in terms of ingredients, it is a complete set of chicken, duck and fish, unlike other people's homes that use other things to fill the number, the real meat dishes are actually pitiful, can only let the guests eat, and other people will have to taste the taste with chopsticks.
There's no way, the family is not rich, but I don't dare to eat it all. You eat hard at home, and people eat hard when it's your turn to do errands, and in the end, if the real guests don't eat well, there will be nothing, and then you will be a shame for the old man.
This year, the banquet is better. If you push back ten years, the plates used for the banquet at that time could not be called plates, but had to be called plates! The small size is only about ten centimeters in diameter, and it is estimated that one person will be empty.
Now it's a big plate, how can the diameter be about 20 centimeters, although they are all shallow plates, and they can't hold many things, but they look good, right?
This is the big market! It's not the kind of stingy thing that can only be called a saucer! Rural people, the poorer the better, they are afraid of being gossiped about when their own family is doing things, especially if the guests can be dissatisfied. That's a shame that people can talk about for a lifetime!
When Wang Yong came over, the master's house was already very lively. Everywhere, there are mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law of the old Wang family, as well as women from the neighbors who come to help.
In winter, when the fish came back, they all became ice lumps. Wang Yong instructed the aunts to soak in cold water and bring them to a warm place in the house, telling the aunts that they didn't need to clean up in advance, they would clean up and stew tomorrow, and then follow a few brothers and brothers to go outside to play.
mixed a lunch and a dinner, and then went home with the mother who came to help and the younger brother who was purely eating and drinking.
It's still in the process of deleting and revising the manuscript, and it's a headache!
