Chapter 0322: Terrifying Speculation
Zhang Heng jumped on the roof of the car when he heard the sound, put a canopy on his hand and looked at it, but he immediately laughed, and a long howl attracted the response of the blood wolves and the big dogs, the blood wolf king returned with its team, the wolves set off with the warriors, but the wolves disappeared for more than ten days, because after the winter, another group of big dogs grew up, and they had to go through a battle to really grow, often no more than eight of the ten could survive, or even lower, and the food of the wolves was not all provided by the tribe.
"I'm in a good mood today, I'll cook some good dishes myself." Zhang Heng roared, and immediately ushered in everyone's cheers, because the dishes he made were particularly in line with the appetite of primitive people, that is, they were full of oil and water, and they ate a lot.
As soon as the order came out, everyone took action, Zhang Heng first asked people to set up a clay pot, and fried the glutinous rice in the pot for seven or eight minutes, the glutinous rice has been planted in the Kui tribe, which can leave seeds by itself, and it is also for this rice that Zhang Heng will send the big pillar to the Kui tribe.
The rice is being fried here, and the rest of the people are busy, setting up pots, burning fires, and carrying water, after all, there are too many people, Zhang Heng can only personally be responsible for the food of a small number of people, and the rest can only learn to do it themselves.
"Wang, do you want to help?" Zhao Yanni ran over and squatted down and asked, a deep furrow was exposed under the animal skin on her chest, which shocked Zhang Heng's spirit, and he also looked generous, he was just pure appreciation.
"Okay, you can watch it, it's all simple dishes, but it's also a bit troublesome." Zhang Heng said with a smile.
The first dish is "tamale", which is soft and delicious and the price is not cheap. A small steamer meat in the palm of the palm also costs twelve yuan in the town, and this is still pork. If you change it to beef and mutton, the price is more expensive, and a bowl of big meat noodles in the town only costs four yuan and five cents.
Glutinous rice is fried directly with raw rice. After frying it for seven or eight years, it was put in a stone trough and beaten into powder, and the meat on this side was also cut, and some of the meat of various beasts came, as well as pork ribs and large intestines. Put them in clay pots, sprinkle with rice flour and stir well, sprinkle with some peppercorns, and add bean paste if you live in reality. This bean paste is made of: "broad beans, cooking wine, soy sauce, salt, pepper, fresh chili powder, a little flour" and so on, Zhang Heng also made Dazhu in the tribe to process some, but not large-scale popularization, this thing must be used as a seasoning, itself does not carry hunger, he eats this part of the natural addition of a small amount of bean paste inventory, with the bean paste after the salt can be omitted, but also add some spices, in reality will generally add: kaempfer, cumin, cloves, grass fruit, star anise, etc. Of course, the tribe did not have it, but they also researched a lot of spice plants, which had been pestled into powder after drying, and they grabbed a handful and sprinkled it in. Let the mixture combine.
Zhang Heng used his fingers to stick a little bit to try the taste of salt, and let him add some salt, which is the source of human power. Eating more salt was only good for primitive people.
Next, I took out the big steamer, which was made of bamboo. Nowadays, the old people of the tribe have a good weaving technique and can weave many kinds of bamboo products.
In practice, a layer of fine gauze is placed on the bottom of the steamer. In this way, the taste will be better when steamed, and some vegetable leaves can be directly padded without gauze, and then the stirred meat will be distributed on the vegetable leaves, which cannot be overlapped, otherwise it will affect the taste.
And the rest of the people also added potatoes to eat, the primitive people were not so particular, the potatoes were washed a little, and they did not need to be peeled, they were directly knocked half-rotten, and then put them on the steamer, and the stirred meat was stacked on top of the potatoes.
Put it in a pot and steam it for about an hour, this tamales are completed, and the fat sausage and pork ribs are also quite delicious when steamed out like this, especially the fat sausage, that is, the large intestine, is cheaper, so that the smell can be removed and become delicious.
The first dish is completed, followed by the second dish (winter melon meat slice soup), this dish uses sweet potato starch, also called starch, at this time you can only use pure meat, you can bring fat, cut into slices, add sweet potato powder, do not add water, directly knock a few eggs into it, if you pay attention to some, you can only use egg white, add salt, you can also add some bean paste or directly add chili powder, etc., ginger is indispensable, ginger for soup, garlic for stir-frying, ginger soup also prevents colds, garlic can prevent germs, and can also detoxify smoothly, In addition, you can also add some peppercorn powder according to taste.
After stirring well, because there is salt added, you can let it sit for a while to marinate, so that the soup will not be too thick, and the starch will be all marinated into the meat. This process is also commonly used in the village to fry crispy meatballs and other methods, but oil is used when frying, and water can be used directly when cooking. After slicing, the winter melon can be put into the pot with the meat, or it can be a loofah, cucumber, vegetable leaves, etc., just a side dish.
The third course (vegetable ball soup) is simpler, let the primitive people directly and vigorously knock the meat, and then mix the crushed vegetable leaves into it, add some salt, knock some eggs into it, and there is no need to add other things, just pinch a handful of meat pulp with your hands, form a circle and put it in boiling water.
And the fourth dish (salt cabbage button meat) is the best, to use brown sugar, the so-called brown sugar and brown sugar is almost the same, is made of sugarcane, sugarcane after refining white sugar, the remaining slag boiled for a few hours will become brown sugar, of course, good brown sugar is directly boiled out with sugarcane juice, a pound of brown sugar on the market only a few yuan, but it is also cheap, almost all the families in the village have storage, mostly used for the New Year dumplings, in addition to the indispensable banquet.
Sugar cane is also grown in the tribe, but of course the harvest is not much, and the brown sugar boiled is also small.
Zhang Heng took a large piece of meat that was boiled into seven parts, this one is with skin, there must be a fat layer, and then smear the brown sugar on the meat, pass it into the oil pot, slice it into the bottom of the clay pot, sprinkle some peppercorns, and do not need to add salt, because it will be loaded with salt vegetables, and there are many types of salt vegetables, cauliflower, green vegetables, kohlrabi, etc. can be made into salt vegetables.
You can also cut the meat directly into cubes, stir it with brown sugar and steam it, the key is that the sugar is on it, and you can also replace it with soy sauce, but soy sauce must be smeared at least five or six times to absorb the flavor, and some high-end ones can be directly replaced with honey.
The fifth dish directly uses sweet potatoes, called (sweet potato sugar block), cut a sandwich in the meat block, stuff a piece of brown sugar into it, white sugar can also be, and then put it at the bottom of the clay pot, put sweet potatoes on it, steam it, this is the same as the button meat above, after steaming, it should be turned upside down and buckled into another container, so that it becomes an auxiliary material below, and the meat is on top, the reason why it is done is also to make the meat more flavorful when steaming.
The sixth dish (meatball cake) is also directly beaten into a meat puree, mixed with starch, pepper, salt, etc., directly into a cake and pounced in the steamer, at this time, the egg is beaten out and stirred evenly, and then smeared on the surface of the meatloaf, so that the steamed is a light yellow flatbread, whether it is cut into pieces to cook soup, or directly eaten, the taste is super good.
Zhang Heng is only making these six dishes now, and then he uses some leftovers, such as bones, to make soup or barbecue.
And these dishes, in fact, are the common noodle dishes in the village, which belong to the dishes that have enough oil and water to eat and can see the meat, and they will naturally gain weight if they eat too much, but what primitive people need is these good dishes.
It didn't take long for Zhang Heng to step aside after the demonstration, he actually didn't know how to do it himself, but when he ran to the kitchen to help see the chef when he was doing a banquet, the chef who helped generally sealed a red envelope of one hundred and twenty yuan, and he had to be busy for two days, and the rest of the old mothers who helped were mostly twelve yuan, six yuan, etc., and the children were a few cents a piece, and they could steal some mouths when they helped in the kitchen.
"It's a pity that there is no wine." Lao Zhou looked at the hot situation, and said happily, he can be regarded as touching the temper of the Sun King, free and uninhibited, and he is not a cruel and murderous person, he has been in for a few months, and he has never seen the Sun King punish primitive people, at most he scolds a few words, but he is still happy to scold primitive people, this is really a willing to fight, a willing to suffer!
Zhang Heng said with a smile: "It's not easy to eat wine, I'll buy some when I go back, the price of making wine in the tribe is too high, and the gains outweigh the losses!" "This is the truth, everything is considered from the aspect of eating, and wine has transcended eating and has become a level of enjoyment.
Lao Zhou suddenly discovered that one of the great advantages of the Sun King is that he is restrained enough, if he had changed to someone else, I am afraid that he would have started to enjoy life a long time ago.
Time passed quickly, and the steamed pork, ball soup, meat slice soup, brown sugar meat pieces, ball cakes, salted cabbage and button meat, etc., were all cooked, and the blood of the animals was also boiled into Xuewang soup and distributed.
The primitive people carried a flat boulder, this is the table, Zhang Heng beckoned a few old people to sit together, and also opened a table for Qin Shou and other close people, these more than 600 people are all warriors, all of them have figured out the temper of the Sun King, that is, as long as you come out to hunt and fight, you can let go of your stomach to eat, and you can eat as much as you can, but after returning to the tribe, you can't do it, you have to distribute food according to the rules of the previous tribe, so these men like to come out to fight.
And the more than 100 people who had just been arrested had no right to speak at all, Zhang Heng waved his hand and arranged a lot of food, but it was obviously mostly soup, and although there was little meat, it was enough for each person to eat a few pieces.
"Gollum!" The black-haired monkey king actually heard a humanized sound of hunger.
Zhang Hengguan'er took a clay pot and filled it with a lot of meat and handed it to Hei Mao, and when Hei Mao grabbed a piece of tamales and put it in his mouth, he coughed violently, but still didn't spit out the food.
"Black hair must have never eaten chili peppers." Zhao Yanni shouted happily, after the steamed pork is cooked, it has to complete the last process, sprinkle dried chili powder, Sichuan pepper powder, coriander, chopped green onions, etc.
"King, king!" The black hair coughed for a while and then showed a happy expression, probably adapted to the taste of the chili pepper, and stretched out his big furry hand to grab the meat pieces and send them to his mouth.
Zhang Heng also happily grabbed a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, but he was suddenly shocked, because he thought of a guess that made him extremely shocked, if the growth rate of primitive people was unexpectedly slowed down by three hundred and sixty times because of his appearance, it would take hundreds of years or even longer for primitive people to reproduce, and this time did not affect the evolution of monkeys such as black hair, assuming that primitive humans originally evolved from monkeys, and now primitive people are basically standing still, so can these monkeys keep up and eventually evolve into humans......
