Chapter 268: Memory
Although each family in the family has a kitchen and dining room, in order to make things cheaper, the Qin family still vacated three blue brick and gray tile bungalows in the west cross courtyard of the outer courtyard, and set up a large kitchen and dining room for the family. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Today is only the second day of entering the house, although the stove in the big kitchen has been raised yesterday, but the family has never eaten a meal in the dining room.
Only today's dinner will have to wait a little while.
Dumpling stumbling noodles.
It is said that there is no such custom in the south, but Father Qin, who has always been very open, has always adhered to this tradition.
In the past, when he was young and left home, he would sometimes go to Lianxi or even other counties, and he would go for three or five days, but even if it was only three days, he would personally cook dumplings and make noodles for Mrs. Qin.
Later, Qin Lianbao and Qin Lianlong went out to apprentice, and every time they came and went, it was time for the Qin family to eat dumplings and noodles.
After a long time, it has become a habit of the Qin family.
So now that she was going to pick up the children back, Mrs. Qin didn't even think about it, she was already thinking about the children's first meal at home, and she should eat a bowl of steaming noodles.
But I'm going to make a duck topping.
After lunch, Mrs. Qin led her daughter-in-law and her grandson to work.
Even peppercorn bay leaves come in handy, boiling water.
After slaughtering and deflewing the young ducks that eat fish, shrimp and snails, and eat fat and strong, dig out the internal organs and ducks, wash them and put them in the pot to fly water, and remove their blood. Then take out the whole duck and rinse it with water, put it in the pot again, add spices and rice wine and cook it together. After boiling, remove the foam from the noodles, scoop up the duck and let it cool. Sprinkle a little alum and refined salt into the duck soup to make the soup clear. After the duck is cooled, cut off the bowl, a duck cut off the duck head and duck claws, you can also buckle eight bowls, and then pour a spoonful of the original soup into the basket and steam.
This is the so-called stewed duck poured by the Chongtang people.
It's so tedious, but it's not over yet.
According to the current way of eating in Chongtang, it has to be accompanied by a bowl of Yangchun noodles.
After eating the duck pouring, and then mixing the noodles with the duck soup, this is the real deliciousness, and the joy is incomparable.
It's just an ordinary person, but it's very rare to make this duck noodles at home.
When you come to the restaurants of all sizes in Chongtang Town, there are few who don't know how to make this duck noodles. Moreover, the price is affordable, and ordinary people can afford to try it once in a while.
It is extremely cumbersome to clean up another duck, not on the side, but to remove the fine fluff on the top together, which is really not easy.
What's more, it's homemade, and it's not as good as other people's restaurants, or there are hand-me-down skills, or hands-on work.
Rao is Qin Lao Niang likes to revolve around the head of the pot, and often only when the autumn wind rises, will she make such a duck noodles for the family once or twice.
Now, although the stewed duck is steamed, and the dough is kneaded in the morning, the noodles have to be rolled out and cut in the pot.
Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Yao were busy going around, and Father Qin and Brother Qin Lianhu came over to help.
The rolling of the dough, the cutting of the face, each perform its own duties.
The peppercorns are not idle.
In the two open dining rooms connected to the kitchen, there are already four solid and heavy Eight Immortal Tables on the ground, and the sixth brother is setting up benches.
Xiangye had already taken the rag out to wipe the table, and Sichuan Pepper also came out with four chopsticks, and was climbing on the bench, pushing the chopstick tubes to the center of the table one by one.
Climbing down the bench, pepper clapped his hands, and took the bayant leaves that had wiped the table and went to the kitchen again.
In the kitchen, the cloves are on the fire, and soon the water is boiling, and the first pot of noodles has been cooked.
Hua Jiao looked at it, his eyes lit up, and he shouted inside: "Grandfather, grandmother, let's go and call the eldest brother and second sister to come over to eat noodles!" ”
As he spoke, he was already dragging the fragrant leaves and running away.
The elders inside were stunned, and they couldn't cry or laugh.
How did the cloves who were burning the fire not know the careful thinking of the peppercorns, and jumped to their feet in a hurry, but the little boys in the dining room saw the pepper bay leaves running away, and they also hurriedly shouted and ran out.
Sichuan pepper and bay leaves trotted all the way hand in hand, listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer behind, covering their mouths and being happy, and went to the house of the west group house.
I was thinking about cutting noodles and cooking noodles for a while, worried that these children would not be comfortable sitting in the dining room, but Qin Lao Niang Suo ** Dai Lobby Brother, Second Cousin, Third Cousin and Fennel led them to move their luggage back to the house, and they were a little familiar with it, which could also be more stable.
As soon as he entered the door, Hua Jiao saw that the little boy who was about to kneel and kowtow was leading the group of children towards the lobby brothers, and he couldn't stop shaking deeply, and he thanked him in his mouth: "Thank you young master and young lady for bothering us, and thank you to the old lady for ......."
The bluff made Fennel hurriedly turn sideways to avoid it, and the three brothers in the lobby were also dumbfounded, and hurriedly went to help him: "No, no, between us, there is no need to make such a big gift." ”
But the little boy said, "What you want, this is what you should do." He also said: "The old man just said that you have to leave your head until the New Year to knock." When the Chinese New Year comes, we will kowtow to the old lady and young master and miss again, and kowtow a few more. ”
Brother Lobby couldn't cry or laugh: "Even the old man, Mrs. Young Master, our family doesn't like such a name." ”
The fourth cousin and the fifth cousin standing behind Huajiao Xiangye couldn't stop nodding: "Even young master, where did you learn this?" I got goosebumps when I heard it. ”
Saying that, he took the pepper bay leaves into the house, and the fourth cousin also said: "Our family is not looking for someone, didn't we say okay, we are adopting you, then we will be brothers in the future." As he spoke, he put his hand on the little boy's shoulder, and pointed to the lobby brother, second cousin, and third cousin: "These three must be the eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother." He pointed to fennel again: "This is also my sister, second sister, we still have an eldest sister, who has already gone out, see you again for the New Year!" ”
asked the little boy again: "How old are you this year, I guess you have to call us fourth, fifth, and sixth brothers." Thinking of Lilac again, he nodded: "Well, there is also a third sister." ”
A series of words, the little boy who listened to it was confused, and the group of children behind him had round eyes, and some seemed to understand.
Brother Lobby also held his head, and was about to explain to them when the sound of Du Shi calling them to eat came from the east.
I can only put this thing aside first, and bring two strings of little boys and girls to the dining room.
Put the noodles in the pot, boil the water twice, and then you can take out the drain and put it in a bowl.
A bowl of duck poured with a bowl of Yangchun noodles, served at the same time, and then served with marinated duck head, duck feet, duck pieces, and a few plates of side dishes, this is the family's dinner today.
The group of children who were a little overwhelmed in the clouds were led into the dining room by the lobby brother who had explained their names to them along the way, and when they smelled the fragrant fragrance, they saw the duck noodles on the table.
For the little characters in the family, this rao is a duck topping noodle that they all rarely taste, and it is a delicacy in the world.
Every September when the yellow duck is fat, I will also worry.
But that's all.
The same is true for Rao is peppercorns.
But for these eleven children, they had never heard of this duck noodles that they had never tasted, and after the first bite of duck soup that was clear to the bottom of the bowl, they were appetized and their hearts were settled.
Although they may not be able to understand such a change at this moment, this memory will always remain in their hearts. (To be continued.) )
