Chapter 25: Ejiao Soup
"Wow!" Li Gengxin stood in front of the counter and listened to the introduction of the shopping guide aunt in Tongrentang. Subconsciously sighed.
With a look of surprise on his face, he first looked down at the delicate black iron box in his hand that was "forced" by the shopping guide. was silent for a while, and subconsciously raised his head and was just about to speak, when he saw that the shopping guide's eyes were almost slit.
Although the shopping guide aunt's smile is full of charm, but in Li Gengxin's eyes, she feels that the aunt seems to be sharpening her knife Huo Huo looked at herself, and seemed to be ready to slaughter her fat sheep at any time.
Li Gengxin's body trembled slightly, and he didn't dare to call Aunt as he did in his heart. just muttered and asked, "Sister, is there half a catty in such a small box?" To a thousand two? That's expensive......"
"Expensive? Do you eat it yourself or give it away? If you want to give it away, now you can send it to the leader of the unit and ask someone to do something. The young man has the vision to know that he is healthy! How bad is it to send cigarettes and alcohol now? is saying that the anti-corruption is so powerful, if you send the leader two more dazzling eyes! It's different to send this, I'm saying that this thing is a selection of black donkey skins, and it's produced in winter! "Auntie looked like an old-fashioned hot intestine.
Li Gengxin frowned, and he didn't have time to speak. The shopping guide aunt took out a box of black iron boxes with exactly the same packaging from the counter, stuffed them into Li Gengxin's hand and said, "If the family eats, this is not bad." The same is a selection of black donkey skins. It's just that it's not produced in winter. β
Looking at the iron box that couldn't see any difference between his hands, Li Gengxin was suddenly at a loss.
If you ask Li Gengxin to distinguish the quality of dried abalone. Li Gengxin, who has been in the kitchen for more than two years, can still study it. But let Li Gengxin distinguish Ejiao. I really want to scratch the wall.
"Still think it's expensive? Oh, this is cheap, it's also half a catty for only six hundred and five, but I think you shouldn't eat it yourself, young man. If you send it to the leader, you can't take it with six hundred and five! If you want to replenish the body of your parents and elders, it is best to come to more than 900. After all, you get what you pay for. Nong knows......" In the last sentence, the aunt revealed who she was.
Li Gengxin frowned, and called two words of food god in his heart.
Although the recipe is already in the chest. But this selection of ingredients is not in the recipe. After all, such an expensive thing, Li Gengxin still wanted the God of Food to give him an idea.
"God of Food? God of Food...... Great God of Food! After a few calls, I heard the response of the god of food. When I looked up, I saw that the shopping guide aunt in the Tongrentang looked at her eyes a little wrong. She seemed to be wondering if she was here to make trouble!
Endured the strange eyes of the aunt of Tongrentang's shopping guide, Li Gengxin flipped over the iron box and saw that the words "blood nourishment and nourishment" were clearly written in the main function.
I secretly complained in my heart: Is the God of Food reliable? The main ingredient of this dish is actually made of ejiao......
A second before the shopping guide aunt was about to collapse, Li Gengxin suddenly said loudly: "Let's have a box of the best first!" β
"Hey!" The shopping guide's aunt's originally round eyes suddenly laughed again.

"Hey!" Li Gengxin sighed and squatted at the door of his rental room. Raised his hand and shone the ejiao block against the sun. Looking at the sunlight, this ejiao is brownish-red and translucent. As the breeze blows, the unique gum fragrance of Ejiao is emanating from the ejiao blocks.
This fragrance is neither choking nor strong, and the faint fragrance of Li Xinxin has never even been smelled.
"Does this thing delay organ failure?" Subconsciously muttered. Li Gengxin picked up the box of Ejiao casually, flipped through it and looked at it for a long time, but he didn't see any relevant introduction in this regard.
Think about the ancient recipes that the god of food gave him, and he will never pit himself. Only then did he casually put the open Ejiao block on his small cutting board. I started to organize the ingredients I had just purchased.
"Five-year-old daughter safflower carving wine...... Now that the distillery is unreliable, this twenty-year-old bottle should be about the same, right? He muttered as he put his daughter red aside, and then took out rock sugar, honey, black sesame seeds, walnut kernels, and longan meat. Lined up in turn, he took the kitchen knife and gently smashed the Ejiao block with the back of the knife.
Every time he went under the knife, Li Gengxin felt a dull pain in his chest.
After getting the ejiao block, he casually pulled out a small gas tank and a simple small stove from under his kang.
Leave this set at the door and turn on the stove. The small wok was placed on the fire, and after the fire started, the wine bottle was opened and a small half bottle of daughter red was poured into the pot. The fire quickly boiled the daughter red, and the gurgling bubbles boiled slightly in the pot.
Li Gengxin grabbed a handful of rock candy and threw it into the pot. It seems to be a random grasp, but in fact, this hand is much more accurate than weighing the rod plate at the moment. Li Gengxin felt that everything he did at this time was like an innate instinct in his bones.
"Yoh? Master Xiao Li, what kind of delicious food is this? The neighbors who passed by pulled their twenty-pound "big dog" and paced slowly. I wanted to pass by in front of Li Gengxin's door, but I could smell the fragrance of Huadiao wine, this person paused, stared at the small woks on Li Gengxin's stove and stopped and didn't leave.
The person didn't leave, but the dog rushed towards Li Gengxin. But it's good that this guy is on a leash.
"Come back, Iron Egg! Hit you......" scolded his "big dog" twice. His eyes looked at the pot of Huadiao wine under Li Gengxin suspiciously, and his heart was full of curiosity.
Li Gengxin glanced up at the visitor, smiled and said casually: "Brother Ergou, I'll get some supplements for a friend's grandmother." As he spoke, he gently scooped the spoon in his hand into the pot a few times, and when he saw that the rock sugar had melted, he steadily scooped up all the pieces of Ejiao with a knife and poured them into the pot.
The spoon slowly stirred the brown soup, and Li Gengxin focused his gaze.
There was a faint gummy fragrance in the pot. Feeling that the heat was almost over, Li Gengxin opened the honey and poured the honey into a whole hand. With a flick of the wrist, the honey in the spoon melts into the soup.
Just a big spoonful of honey, the soup changed its taste in an instant. The contents of the pot seem to have been favored by the heavenly fairies. At this time, the fragrance of the locust trees makes people feel as if they are strolling under the locust trees in May, and the fragrance of locust flowers is full of people.
"Want Want ......" the twenty-pound big dog barked twice, sat on the front legs and back legs, swayed from side to side with a big tail, and a long tongue. The dog works so hard to sell cuteness, it seems that it is just to lick the delicious taste in the pot.
Li Gengxin stirred the soup in the pot, and as the soup gradually thickened. Only then did the longan meat be sprinkled into the pot. The fragrance of longan is great! Li Gengxin didn't know why, but he just knew that it was time to plant walnut kernels.
The spoon stirred, watching the brown-red and slightly black ejiao juice in the pot wrap the longan meat and walnut kernels, Li Gengxin finally sprinkled the black sesame seeds in between.
Li Gengxin sighed and grinned slightly. If it weren't for the smell of this smell that made me have an appetite, I couldn't even resist the urge to scold the street.
It's a good thing, and now it's thicker than sesame paste! Is this also called a dish? Say soup is not soup, say dish is not a dish. If you want to have a color without a color, you want to look good without a look. It's not up or down, but the taste is so sultry! It's just a pain in my own eggs!
This thing is as beautiful as it can be interpreted. When the time comes, going to Dejuquan to fight against that big meat ball will definitely be a killer feature! It's a pity......
He spat out heavily, and most things in the world can't have the best of both worlds. Li Gengxin thought about it, and the matter of the game could only be thought of.
This thing should really be able to take good care of Yang Sanwu's grandmother's body. I admit it.
"What's that, it smells so good?" The sound of words accompanied by the snapping of slippers came from far and near.
Li Gengxin looked up and saw a middle-aged woman looking for her with her nose in her hand.
"Hey! Chartered wife, your little master Li is making something delicious! Ergou said loudly to the charter wife.
"You said Li Gengxin made something delicious? Isn't he a cook who chops vegetables? Before the words fell, the charter wife had already walked to the door of Li Gengxin's rental house. Turning his head to look at Li Gengxin, who was squatting at the door, stirring the soup pot with a spoon in his hand.
The charter wife's face was suddenly filled with a look of surprise.
"Hey, this thing is black and whirring, ......" The original intention of the words seemed to be derogatory, but the charter lady paused slightly, and actually praised it: "What I smell is really this smell!" I smelled the scent in the house just now......"
Ergou smiled and said, "Master Li, what kind of tonic are you?" If I can also eat this, Ergou I don't think it's worth it except for death, high paraplegia...... I admit all his sisters! β
Li Gengxin raised his head and smiled at Ergou. But he didn't dare to pick up the stubble!
That's all there is in the pot. Although there are a lot of things when the material is cut. But after boiling, there is really not much left. The factor of the value of things aside, the neighbors in the street, give them a taste, it's really nothing.
But after all, this thing is for Yang Sanwu's grandmother. One bite is really one less bite. The totals are here......
"Wang...... Want Want ...... "twenty-pound" big dog, and his tail was about to shake and break at this time. It stuck out its tongue, and the dog's eyes were full of anticipation.
The charter wife knocked Li Xin like an idle and said, "Xiao Li, you said that you live here with your aunt, and your days are not short, right?" I will take care of what you can do, a few days ago your family came to the thief, but I was the first to run away from the thief, this is a man! Can ......"
Ergou said loudly: "Master Li, what did you put in this thing." Ergou paused and said, "I can't see it, you tell me!" I'll go home and make some of it. It's just that I may not be able to grasp the taste, you see? β
Li Gengxin looked at the charter wife and the second dog brother in front of him, and really wanted to raise his hand and slap his two mouths. Secretly complaining that he has nothing to do, why are you squatting at the door? Closing the door is at best choking......
The voice of the God of Food suddenly echoed in Li Gengxin's ears: "Give them two bites......
"Huh?" Li Gengxin let out a suspicious sound in surprise.
The charter woman snorted heavily and said, "Ahhhhhh Don't you remember when your aunt helped you chase away the thief? β
Ergou muttered, "Haven't I been watching it all the time?" Master Li doesn't want to keep it a secret from me, right? β
Li Gengxin hurriedly shook his head, knowing that the two in front of him had misunderstood. I hurriedly asked the God of Food, "You let me ......"
"Don't ink!" The god of food urged.
looked down at the already small Ejiao soup, and when he looked up, he had a slightly slashing look on his face, and while explaining, he looked for the small spoon and said, "Brother Ergou, auntie, I made this thing a tonic for a friend's grandmother." You've seen a lot of things, and that's it. Let's try it fresh first, and if you think it tastes good, I'll cook a pot when I come back in the evening......"
As he spoke, Li Gengxin deliberately scooped up a piece of walnut kernel hanging with ejiao and a piece of longan meat, and handed them to the second dog brother and the charter wife respectively.
The twenty-pound "big dog" of "Want Want ......" stared at Li Gengxin cutely, and his tongue seemed to spit out longer.
