Chapter 40 Foodie

Eat well, it's better to eat coolly, at this time Li Feng picked up the bean cake with his face full of enjoyment, it was really that taste, the light mung bean was fragrant, chewy, better than some potato flour. Li Feng picked out some beef and looked at his fat boy and hairball. The beef is very light, dry and white, with a hint of tendon and bone when biting, these dried beef have no water, and the meat is fragrant and fishy.

The beef soup is clear, with some chili oil floating, bright red, and the vermicelli is crystal clear. Qianzhang dark yellow is better, made by yourself, the taste is dry, no more than some to go to the yuba, less hearty. Li Feng added some aged vinegar, and the small bowl with it, with onions and garlic, coriander, added at will, the chili pepper was fragrant and fragrant, not in a small jar, but directly in a large soup bowl, giving people an extremely rough feeling. Served with two large buns, soaked in soup, it tastes quite good.

It may be that the meal has been ordered in the morning, or there are few people in the back, there are few people in the store, Li Feng sits alone on a big eight-immortal table, four benches, shiny oil, looking at the jujube red tabletop, the yellow table legs, the long bench is dark red, or the jujube tree, or the old locust tree, all of which are hardwood pieces, and the oil shines through the years.

The bamboo tube is filled with long bamboo chopsticks, the color is indifferent, with the dark bamboo tube, the carving is a little bit of scenery, but it is quite elegant. Except for the napkins, which have a modern flavor, the whole store has a bit of a past and present feeling. There is a big wooden cart in front of the door, and the big red characters on it are still seen when I was a child, some dark red, 'Li Kidnapper Donkey Meat', these words may have become a not small brand in Li Jiazui.

Several old people eating in the house are more particular than Li Feng, people, three o'clock, order buns, fragrant cakes, vegetable boxes, steaming, baking, frying, three things. Speaking of the old three, Li Feng remembered that when he ate in junior high school, he ate five corners, and when he was in high school, he ate one piece, and now he has almost two pieces. The buns are large, comparable to an adult's fist, the fragrant cakes are as thin as paper, the vegetable box, the dumplings are enlarged and the size of a palm, and the golden color is transparent with green vegetable filling. Crispy and oily, it is a rare enjoyment to eat a bite and taste a mouthful of clear soup.

"Little boss, why is the big boss not here." The boss in his thirties next to Li Feng, with an apron around his waist, sat on the side, smoking a cigarette, and now he doesn't have much business and is idle.

"My dad went to see the goods, and the little brother was very faced." The so-called look, but cattle and sheep, old donkeys and other livestock, livestock ** easy not only in the market, although Li Jiazui although the population is not much, the place is not small, look at the goods for half a day is not set back and forth, although now the mountain road repair is good, but can not stand nine bends and eighteen bends, a circle down to say less four or five miles of road, a few ups and downs more than ten miles out.

"Hehe, I haven't been back in years." After I went out of the mountain of Lijiazui after high school, I didn't calm down to taste a bowl of beef soup outside for many years, and I have been yearning for high-rise buildings outside the mountain in my early years, but now my mind is light, I can't say why, I feel that I am like a floating leaf, and gradually settle to the ground.

"Add some soup." The boss saw that there was not much soup in Li Feng's bowl, so he got up and asked for half a spoonful, and the soup was full of oil flowers. No one came to the door, the boss, with a big tongs, planed the charcoal fire of the cauldron, sat down to chat with Li Feng, usually the father looked at the store, but he only had a lot, today the old man went to see the goods, but he had nothing to do.

Li Feng saw that the time was not early, and bought a few catties of cooked beef, lamb tripe, braised meat, pig ears, and donkey meat are not common now, but fortunately, some bosses have made a few catties in the past few days, and as for venison, it is hard to find. Li Feng didn't ask for it at all, he took a few packs of fried balls, but the meat balls were not made today, and Li Feng was a little regretful.

Meatballs, also known as tribute balls, originated from a chef named Liu Xi during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. When preparing meals for court officials, I made many dishes that were not appetizing. So he chopped the pork with a knife, mixed it with ingredients, made it into a round shape with dough, boiled it in water, steamed it in the oven for a few minutes, and then mixed it with balsamic vinegar and sesame oil for consumption. Officials were full of praise after eating. Recommend the dish of dumplings to Emperor Zhu Yijun. The emperor praised it after eating it and gave the dish the name Gongyuan. Gongyuan spread to the people, the common people regard it as auspicious and wishful family reunion, and the tribute round has become an indispensable delicacy on the table to entertain guests. There is a saying among the local people: "Folk food tribute round, unique formula, high nutrition, unforgettable." "Lijiazui Gongyuan is refined with high-quality fine noodles, starch, fresh pork, pure chicken soup, green onions, ginger, refined salt, egg white, frying, chopping, kneading, rolling, and soaking. Its color is as white as jade, the entrance is smooth and fresh, fragrant and mellow, and the aftertaste is long. Its shape is round, it is long when you hold it with chopsticks, and it is still round and not rotten when you put it down. It can be steamed, fried, boiled in soup, and cooked in the microwave, which is simple and convenient. The price is not expensive, only four or five yuan per catty, as an indispensable dish for the table.

Fried balls are also known as mung bean balls, Li Feng likes to bring them the most when he goes out, mainly because it is more shelf-stable than meatballs, and it is absolutely no problem to put them for a month. Mung bean balls, mainly flour, mung bean flour, shrimp skin, bean cakes, bean sprouts, mixed with seasonings into a batter, into the oil pan to cook, fried to brown, but the general craftsmanship is not good, the balls are easy to fry through, leaving a soft place. The hardness of the real and authentic balls is comparable to that of red bricks, and the teeth are not good, and the big teeth are definitely broken.

Crisp, many children like to eat as snacks, Li Jiazui people like to eat as a meal, Li Feng was in junior high school when it was windy and rainy, the mountain road was not easy to walk, eat a bowl of balls, but at that time I dreamed of it, the balls were in the pot, it would not be rotten for a day, and it would be crispy to eat, not to mention, if there is money and five cents for the heart and lungs, it is definitely a great enjoyment, and the red dumpling soup is absolutely warm to drink in winter.

Li Feng carried a few large bags of cooked food, saying goodbye to the enthusiastic boss, as for the meatballs, the boss said that the restaurant not far away had them to buy. Li Feng felt that he had time in the afternoon, he made some by himself, starch, ingredients are his own, only a few fresh pork, several meat stalls on the street are not out of the stall, Li Feng can only get a little fresh meat from Li Guizi's house, the boss is very easy to talk, fat and tender, Li Feng weighed three or four catties, just make the rest of the balls and make eight braised pieces tomorrow.

"Are you a rich kid, but I heard my grandmother say that there are a lot of city people in the village these days, why do you sell a lot of peaches." Li Can looked at Li Feng's big bags and small bags, especially a few bottles of good wine in his left hand, Wuliangye, and red wine, except for gifts, few people can really afford to drink these things.

"Go, how can you kid, open a clothing store to make money, but I know that you dare to shout a hundred for ten yuan to buy goods. Tens of thousands a year are absolutely indispensable. "Li Zuizi has developed well in recent years, people have a good life, and the requirements for food, clothing, housing and transportation are high, especially in clothes, the elderly and children are nothing, half a guy, a big girl, but exquisite, look at the clothing stores in the town, mushrooms have sprung up.

"you, my store is remote, but it can't compare to the few in the center, and there are more than 100,000 people a year." Li Can is quite envious, his house is cheap, when he bought it, it was only more than 50,000 yuan, but now it is more than 100,000 yuan, and he can get by doing some business.

"Don't talk about it, while the sun is not poisonous, I'll go back first, oops, it's almost over, peaches and crispy melons in the basket." Li Feng thought that he seemed to have forgotten something. "Hey, why is it gone?"

"Hehe, I'm in the belly early, I won't be polite to you, by the way, it's okay in a few days, accompany me to the city." Li Can smiled, the peaches and crispy melons in the basket were taken out and eaten earlier, Li Can and his father looked at his son and said a few words, but Li Can didn't feel anything.

"Into the city, what are you doing?" Put away the wine and food in your hand, turn on the motorcycle, and listen to Li Can say that he entered the city, but he was a little puzzled, is it a blind date, no, this baby seems to have a partner.

"It's not for the convenience of buying a van, hehe, why don't you mix it up and drive it on four wheels." Li Can had been messing around with this for a long time before Li Fujing nodded.

"Your baby has a car family, sixth uncle, sixth aunt agreed?" Li Feng rolled his eyes, what kind of mess is four rounds, doesn't this mean that he is boring in these four rounds?

"I don't agree, I'll buy a ball, how about a consultation."

"Okay, call me that day." Li Feng didn't refuse, this matter was just a mixed meal, and he watched with more eyes.

Riding a quad bike, facing the wind, shuttling through the mountains, the blue sky is above, the white clouds are blooming, the air is lukewarm, mixed with the smell of earth and grass.

More than ten minutes, the mountain village appeared in front of you, slowed down, the mountain road into the village was a little bumpy, swaying and some drowsy, the most comfortable, the fat boy had already run in front, the squirrel looked at the familiar scenery chirping, walked under the willow tree, the hairball grabbed a handful of leaves and sprinkled on Li Feng's head, quite naughty.

"Xiaobao is back, hehe, this kid is really, this car hehe." Li Feng was a little surprised, there were a lot of people in Li Feng in the courtyard, the second master, the fifth master, and the elders in the village were all there, Li Feng still thought it was his own business.

"Dad, what is this?" I washed my face and did something, but what a few people said had nothing to do with themselves at all, it was related to the reserve, so there was a college student village official in the village, who seemed to be a female college student, who came to be an assistant to the secretary and the director of the reserve. Dizzy, what kind of assistant do you need in this place, dozens of families in the village, big and small, quarrel louder, a village of people to know. Every year, in addition to the spring and autumn taxes in the village, the biggest thing is the gynecological examination, but it seems that the uncle has always been responsible for this matter.

"I heard that the city is going to build a bird-watching platform in the reservoir, and we must be serious and responsible for this, as for where people live? I think Xiaobao's land is good, and I will report to the town about the rent. Li Fukui's serious face made Li Feng almost squirt tea, what is this, it seems to be really.

"Isn't this okay? Uncle this matter, not to mention the matter of rent or rent, a girl in the family, it is not suitable, if you don't see another person, don't say how bitter it is in the mountains, and it is not convenient to go back and forth. Li Feng felt that the village officials were absolutely cheating, and the salary was not high, so it was not a formal establishment, maybe he would send you to a mountain nest and eat mashed potatoes, it was better to honestly find a job.
