Chapter 8 Traditional Skills Cauldron Whole Sheep

Tie Chengdao: "Xiao San, you are not at home in the past few years, so I don't know, now our mountains are too bad by those outsiders, in recent years, the town has moved a lot of factories from the outside, at first the mountain people were very happy, but then I knew that it was not like that, I heard that those factories were not allowed to be run outside, so they moved to us." ”

"What kind of factories are they?"

Tie Chengdao: "There are paper mills, tanneries, masterbatch chiefs, refractory factories, all of which are moderately polluting enterprises, and the coking plant, known as the largest coking plant in the province, where you can see it, do you see the huge smoke column?" It's the chimney of the coking plant that's smoking, day and night, and I heard that this will also pollute the environment. ”

"Nobody cares about any of this?"

"At the beginning, there were still a few cadres in charge, and those cadres were all local cadres, but their officials were too small, and they were all driven home in the end, and now the remaining cadres are all in a nest with them, their interests are colluding, and officials and businessmen protect each other, how can we manage it."

Luo Xiu'e said: "A few years ago, in several surrounding villages, some people went to find the person in charge of those factories, but they were beaten back, and there were a large number of guards in those factories, and they were very vicious. ”

"Are we afraid of those who beg for food on the mountains?" Jin San sneered.

"We are not in harmony with our hearts, we all act alone, and some outsiders work in those factories, so we are divided, and when we have interests involved, our conscience is sold."

"I know this, I just came out of it, some things are naturally not easy to come forward, but don't worry, since I'm back, some things will be dealt with sooner or later, you go back today to count, the debts that should be recovered, we have to get back a lot of money."

"We can rest assured with your words, you can rest well at home, wait for our news, and when the time comes, just give us a counselor, and you don't need to get involved."

Jin Sanyi is right, he just came out, more things are better than less, some things, as long as people know what they mean, naturally there are other people who do it well, and it is better if you don't come forward.

"Okay, that's it, everyone, wait a minute, and eat at my place tonight."

Seeing that they finished speaking, Luo Xiu'e said: "Little San, you go to the old mansion and take out the cauldron, the Wang family's lack of virtue has blocked our door, I will let the seventh uncle slaughter the fat pig in the family, and we will celebrate it today." ”

"Yes, I'll go get it."

The Jin family turned out to be the chief owner of the village in the mountains, and their family's prestige here is the highest.

As long as the New Year's festival is made up, the countryside is like this, people have something, as long as you participate, it doesn't matter if you have a meal, of course, human contacts, there can be long-term contacts.

Jin San wanted to climb over the wall and enter the old mansion again, but as soon as he thought of a lot of ways, he directly kicked two feet on a low wall to tear the wall open, which also opened an east gate, and when the two gates were installed, they would be alive.

There are two cauldrons in the patio of the old house, this pot has it in a very early time, I heard that this is the Juyi Hall of Jinjiazhai, every time you go out of the mountain to rob and come back, the whole village is here to eat meat and drink in a big bowl, and the big scale divides the gold.

And this square under the whole dam, it turned out to be the martial arts training ground of Jinjiazhai, every time you win a battle, you will celebrate here, and these two cauldrons, it is used at that time, I heard that a small point is used to cook sheep, and the big one can cook the whole whole cow, this is the famous cauldron of cattle and sheep in Jinjiazhai.

Jin San calculated carefully, according to the records of the genealogy, these two cauldrons have a history of a hundred years, and it seems that they have experienced the rise and fall of the Jin family, and they have seen the heat and coldness of the world.

Involuntarily, Jin San launched a time revisit, wanting to see the demeanor of his ancestors a hundred years ago, and scenes appeared in front of Jin San's eyes, the fiery red molten iron was poured into a huge mold, casting a cauldron.

Then there are people setting up a cauldron to cook cattle and sheep, during which there are deer, horses, rabbits, bison goats, and even tigers, leopards, bears and other large animals are cooked in this cauldron.

In addition to these, Jin San also noticed some details, every time the meat pieces came out of the pot, they would attract a burst of admiration, all of them were praise in unison, and none of them said that it was not delicious.

Jin San carefully looked at some of the pictures, only to find that the chef who was responsible for cooking cattle and sheep was still very capable, and Jin San observed hundreds of times before discovering their secret method of cooking cattle and sheep.

Originally, these people in the mountains and wilderness guarded a big mountain, and they had guns in their hands, did they want to eat?

These men who lick blood with knives are best to eat meat, so they can eat meat every day, and their staple food is meat, so there is a problem, even if the meat is delicious, if you eat it as a meal, and you eat it every day, you will get tired of eating.

Therefore, the chef in the village had to find a way, and the big pot of cattle and sheep that he finally made was satisfied with the whole village, so it was handed down.

This big pot of cattle and sheep is convenient to sit up and delicious to eat, so it has been passed down for decades until the second catastrophe of Jinjiazhai was extinct, and those who were a little older in Jinjiazhai were persecuted to death.

At that time, the head of Jinjiazhai was almost dead, which also made many secrets disappear in the long river of history, such as the most famous bunker group in Jinjiazhai, the treasure house of Jinjiazhai, the Tibetan Horse Valley of Jinjiazhai, the armory of Jinjiazhai, and the back road of Jinjiazhai, these have left legends, but no one knows, of course, some people may know, but no one will say it, even Jin San does not know.

Jin San moved a small pot and walked out of the yard, he smiled, looked at the history of this cauldron, but found the secret recipe of the cauldron of cattle and sheep, this time is too useful, and it is too convenient to use this to learn some traditional skills.

Jin San originally grew up in the mountains, so he was naturally very familiar with some medicinal materials, plus he had studied books in prison for ten years, although he had no academic qualifications, but he was no worse than some professionals in the knowledge he was interested in.

When Jin San came to the outside of the farmhouse, he did not enter the farmhouse, but found a few nephews to come over to help, set up a firewood stove, and planned to cook a big pot of cattle and sheep in this square.

"Golden Tiger, come here."

Seeing that Jin Hu was watching people kill pigs, but he was too timid and wanted to see it but didn't dare to look at it, Jin San called him over directly, planning to train him.

Jin Hu is the son of his eldest brother, he is fourteen years old this year, he may have grown up with women since he was a child, although his name is mighty, his surname is too soft, he doesn't talk much, he just blinks and looks at everything, such a weak man is not what the Jin family wants.

"There are also golden scales, you go to Yan Sanye's house to get something, the details recorded on this paper are detailed, let Yan Sanye catch it according to the above weight."

Jin Liang is only ten years old, when Jin San entered, he was not yet born, but now he is ten years old, a tiger head and tiger brain, only ten years old is one meter four tall, and Jin Hu is fourteen years old and one meter five tall.

With the golden tiger, Jin San caught a big ram on the hillside on the side, a black goat with a black body, weighing more than 100 catties.

It is best to eat sheep from early July to the end of August, which is the so-called sheep, at this time the sheep is the fattest, the lean meat rate is as high as 70%, and two catties of live sheep can produce a catty of bone-in meat.

The method of slaughtering live sheep in Jinjiazhai is also very distinctive, and it is more used to "cut the ear", that is, to cut off its carotid artery from behind the ear, put the blood into a basin with an appropriate amount of salt water and stir, after coagulation, cut large pieces into the pot, heat and soak until it is not old and tender, take it out and put it aside for later use.

Handing the knife in his hand to Jin Hu, Jin San pointed to the artery behind the big ram's ear and said, "Come, give it a knife here." ”

Everyone watched Jin San's movements, and when they set up the cauldron, everyone thought of the whole sheep in the cauldron of Jinjiazhai.

This was a very famous dish fifty or sixty years ago, but later it was said that it was difficult, not to mention mutton, it would be good to be full, so this memory was lost with the passing of the older generation.

Now look at Jin San's posture, that is to be a cauldron of whole sheep, since Jin San dares to do it, that is he knows how to do the whole sheep in the cauldron, and now there is a unique stunt that is amazing.

Now it's the economy and society, everything looks at money, it turns out that when the juniors at home, listen to these old guys talk about the ancients, they will tell the juniors about some of the old traditions of the ancestors, but as long as they hear it, the juniors will complain about them, just like this cauldron of whole sheep, as long as there is this technology, it is no longer a problem to make a chain company all over the country.

Now that people's living conditions are better, what is not afraid of you being expensive, I am afraid that you will not be able to do it well, as long as it is a good thing, I am not afraid that you will not be able to earn money.

Jin Hu was holding a knife in his hand, but he didn't dare to do it, the sister-in-law next to him couldn't bear to look at it, Jin San's eyes widened, and she stopped her movements: "Did you see me beating people just now?" If you don't go under the knife today, I will beat you up and throw you into the reservoir, our Jin family does not have a useless man like you. ”

Seeing that he still didn't move, Jin San slapped him directly on the head, beating him to a stagger, looking at Jin San's cruel eyes, Jin Hu grabbed the knife in his hand and stabbed him hard.

When Jin Hu moved, Jin San instantly grabbed his hand, followed his strength, and swiped hard, easily cutting the sheep's artery, and blood sprayed out instantly.

It made Jin Hu look at each other, and everyone around laughed, Jin San patted Jin Hu on the shoulder and said nothing.

The other people, in turn, stepped forward and patted Jin Hu on the shoulder, although this Jin Hu is young, he is the eldest grandson of the Jin family, according to the tradition of the elders, this Jin Hu is the head of the Jin family.
