Chapter 216: Deep-fried sparrows
"Ah...... Fang Yun, come and see, where did so many dead birds come from? ”
Just as Fang Yun was preparing lunch in the kitchen, Feng Xiu'er's scream in the courtyard almost scared Fang Yun's soul away, and a flash appeared beside Feng Xiu'er.
Glancing at the more than a dozen dead gray-brown birds on the ground, Fang Yun breathed a sigh of relief and comforted, "It's nothing, isn't it just some dead old thieves." ”
"It's not that it's any bird that died, the question is how there are so many dead old thieves in our yard." Feng Xiu'er has also lived in the village for half a year, how could she not know the most common old thief.
Fang Yun also scratched his head in wonder, the origin of these old thieves is indeed very strange, although the bear children in the village are so naughty that their teeth itch, they will not do this kind of prank, and they are not willing to use so many old thieves to make pranks, so many old thieves are enough to make dishes.
Soon the two of them discovered the perpetrator of the prank, and Goku was squeaking back into the yard from outside, clutching a dead old thief in each of his paws.
"Wukong? How did it catch such an old thief? Feng Xiu'er was taken aback, although Wukong was very naughty and mischievous, but his age was there, and his skills were not as agile as those adult monkeys, and even adult monkeys couldn't help birds, how could it catch so much.
Fang Yun said with a smile: "These old thieves are not caught by Wukong at all, they are all frozen to death and starved to death, Wukong is estimated to have found the dead old family thieves somewhere." ”
Feng Xiu'er's eyes widened in disbelief: "How could so many old thieves die?" ”
"How fresh, it's not like you haven't seen how many old thieves there are in the village. They usually like to burrow into straw stacks overnight, and it is normal for them to freeze to death in a heavy snowfall. ”
The old thief is also commonly known as the sparrow, this thing reproduces very quickly, can hatch several litters a year, each litter has five or six, because the sparrow feeds on grass seeds, in the countryside for the yield of rice and wheat is very dangerous, very disgusting to the peasants, once with mice, flies. Rats are listed as one of the four pests.
Although later the sparrow was gradually rehabilitated. But the peasants still didn't have a good opinion of the sparrows. The main reason is that sparrows reproduce too quickly, and even if they don't all feed on rice and the like, the more dangerous they are.
Sparrows often like to spend the night in a pile of straw piled up by the villagers, and you just have to reach in and dig it out. Guaranteed to be accurate.
When I was a child, my family was poor and couldn't eat much meat. When he was hungry, Fang Yun often carried a bag to dig out sparrows in the straw stack. Dozens of them can be found in one night, but there is also a danger that if you are unlucky, you can find snakes that have burrowed into the straw stacks.
It was fresh to look at the dead sparrows on the ground. It seemed that not long after he died, Fang Yunle found a basin to pick up all the sparrows, Wukong saw that the fruits of his labor were deprived by his master, and squeaked anxiously on the side, and was glared at by Fang Yun before he quieted down.
"Fang Yun, what are you doing with these sparrows?" Feng Xiu'er saw Fang Yun walking towards the kitchen with a sparrow, and asked curiously.
Fang Yun replied happily: "Make a fried sparrow, so much is enough for one dish." ”
"Can you eat it?" Feng Xiu'er was deeply skeptical.
Fang Yun stared at Feng Xiu'er strangely up and down, and when Feng Xiu'er was furious and was about to go crazy, Fang Yun asked puzzledly: "Don't you tell me that you haven't heard of the dish fried sparrow?" ”
The dish of fried sparrows is very famous, the color is red and oily, dry, fragrant, crisp and delicious, the nutritional value is very high, it is very popular with people, and many restaurants in the city have this dish.
"No, I mean wild sparrows aren't protected animals now, how can we eat sparrows?" Feng Xiu'er heard that Fang Yun had misunderstood what she meant, and hurriedly explained.
Fang Yun rolled his eyes and said: "Now no matter what it is, it is linked to protected animals, if a small bird like a sparrow quail is domesticated, it will give birth to several litters a year, and the baby sparrows that hatch in the second year will start to hatch eggs again, and it can reach thousands in two years, and the breeding speed of the wild is not so outrageous, but it is also very fast."
As long as it is not a long-term, large-scale nationwide catch, it is really hell that the sparrow can be extinct. Besides, these sparrows are dead, so you can't throw them away. ”
In fact, Fang Yun was still greedy, and suddenly saw these sparrows, and the wonderful taste of the fried sparrows he had eaten when he was a child came to his heart again.
Feng Xiu'er nodded and stopped talking, standing at the door of the kitchen with great interest to watch Fang Yun clean up the sparrows, originally Feng Xiu'er was very keen on cooking, but the food made by Feng Xiu'er was really flattering, Fang Yun was so good that she dispelled Feng Xiu'er's idea of cooking, especially after Feng Xiu'er was pregnant, Fang Yun took the opportunity to deprive Feng Xiu'er of the right to cook.
Quickly remove the sparrows, remove the internal organs, chop into pieces, fry the pepper ingredients together with the dried chili peppers in the pot, then add flour, water and sesame oil and mix thoroughly, and then roll the sparrows in the evenly mixed flour a few times, scoop them up and throw them into the oil pan and fry them until browned, and finally put them on the plate, and a plate of fragrant fried sparrows is baked.
Regardless of burning his mouth, Fang Yunhou hurriedly used chopsticks to clip a piece and stuffed it into his mouth, the outside was charred and the inside was tender, the entrance was crispy and smooth, and there was a fragrance, and the spicy taste rushed straight to his throat.
The fried sparrows are crispy even the bones, fragrant and crispy, especially chewy, although there is no meat, the taste is unique and wonderful, and even the bones are chewed hard when chewed hard.
Especially the more you chew, the more flavorful it became, and in the end, Fang Yun even swallowed the bones into his stomach.
Seeing Fang Yun like a child, Feng Xiu'er shook her head amusedly, but seeing Fang Yun eating so deliciously, Feng Xiu'er couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, stepped forward and picked up a piece to taste and taste, who knew that before she could put it in her mouth, she was washed by the smell of oil, Feng Xiu'er retched, and hurriedly ran to the door and vomited loudly, vomiting so much that even tears flowed out.
"This stinky boy has made my mother so miserable, I must beat his ass hard when he is born." Feng Xiu'er, who finally stopped vomiting under Fang Yun's comfort, straightened up and touched her stomach, and said hatefully.
The fried sparrows on the dinner table almost made a few little girls who came back from playing eat them, their little mouths clicked and chewed hard, and their eyes stared at the plate of fried sparrows on the table that were getting fewer and fewer, for fear that they would eat less than others.
Feng Xiu'er couldn't even smell the smell of oil, so she could only sit far away, pulling the food tastelessly, and she couldn't eat a delicious dish in front of her, which made Feng Xiu'er's heart full of grievances. (To be continued......)
