Chapter 430: Called the Chicken
"How is that possible? There are also many delicious wild fruits, such as mulberries, wild cherries, peaches, plums, and apricots...... What we have in the orchard, we have it in the mountains. The survival of the fittest, those that can survive, are a little special, some things, the taste is several times stronger than that of specially planted, of course, there are also too sour and astringent to eat. ”
In front of it is a dense forest, with many bamboo and mulberry trees, purple mulberries hanging from the branches, and layers of ground falling, and a few hedgehogs hiding behind the raised roots, enjoying the food that nature has given them.
Zeng Yue saw the mulberries hanging on the branches, and immediately became active, shouting: "Wow, God, this is simply a natural orchard, how can there be so many wild fruits?" Brother-in-law, you help me pick them, and I'll give you my treasured chocolates later. ”
Zeng Yue was afraid that her brother-in-law would not be willing to pick these wild fruits for herself, so in order to show equality, she offered paid services, or transactions.
"You can't eat too much of this thing, if you eat too much, you will get angry, and you will even have nosebleeds......" Yun Tao said this, but he still walked over, ready to pick some mulberry fruits from the low branches that he could reach.
Suddenly, several dogs barked and pounced on the grass behind a mulberry tree with lightning speed. Although "Lele" and "Wangzai" were young, their speed and alertness were no worse than some old hounds, and they quickly chased them to the side.
Yun Tao also subconsciously went to the grass behind the mulberry tree, and saw a fat hare jumping out from behind the tree, so he was relieved.
"Lele" pounced, and the hare suddenly fell to the ground, rolled on the spot, and jumped in the opposite direction. But Wang Zai, who couldn't bear it for a long time, said "Wang". Open your mouth wide and bite.
The hare is extremely fast. "Wang Zai" also bit empty. The two and a half dogs were like butterflies, jumping east and west in the grass, and they were very busy, but they bit the brown fur of the hare several times, and they still let it escape.
Then. "Xiaobai", who was waiting for an opportunity next to him, roared, rushed in the direction of the hare's jump, and his body was in mid-air, so he suddenly bit the hare's neck and shook his head vigorously, the hare swayed like a wave drum, and his strength was shaken away by this shake.
When "Xiaobai" landed and turned around, the rabbit in his mouth had no strength to struggle, and after a few twitches of his hind legs, he stopped moving.
This can make "Wang Zai" and "Lele" angry. Wang Wang yelled and roared and pounced on "Xiaobai". In fact, it was a rabbit that pounced on the mouth of "Xiaobai", a dog bit one of the rabbit's legs, did not let go, whined and roared, as if he wanted to dismember the rabbit that made them lose face on the spot.
Yun Tao comforted the three little ones, so that they didn't have to fight for this little thing.
"Brother-in-law, I'm hungry." Zeng Yue came to Yuntao's side and said.
"Hungry?" Yun Tao looked at Zeng Yue suspiciously and asked, It's only ten o'clock in the morning, why are you hungry.
"Brother Tao, I'm hungry too." Lin Qiuju also said, after all, I got up so early in the morning, and I haven't eaten breakfast yet.
"Didn't you all eat breakfast?" Yun Tao asked.
"It's so early in the morning, where is there time for breakfast!" Lin Qiuju said.
"Alright then, let's make lunch in advance!" Yun Tao thought for a while and said.
"Brother-in-law, we didn't bring any guys, how do you make lunch, didn't you bring anything to eat?" Zeng Yue said that Zeng Yue followed up the mountain completely empty-handed.
"Wangzai, Xiaobai, go catch pheasants! If you catch it, you will be rewarded, and if you can't catch it, you will not be given lunch! Attack ......" Li Yuntao shouted, pointed to a few pheasants not far away, and issued an attack order.
Wang Tsai "Wang" sound, lightning pounced on the big pheasant flying overhead, snow-white teeth bit one of the pheasant's claws at once, but the pheasant screamed, actually kicked on the head of "Wang Tsai" with the other paw, suddenly struggled, escaped six or seven meters at once, even flew and jumped, one head drilled through the dense bushes, disappeared.
As soon as Wang Zai rolled over, he got up from the ground, did not stop for a moment, and did not have time to be depressed, so he pounced on a small pheasant that was closer, and the pheasant was unlucky, and when he landed, he was actually entangled in his legs by the fine green vines.
"Ahh
At this moment, "Wang Zai" was excited, jumped up from the ground, stood on his legs, stood upright, and asked Yuntao for credit.
"Excellent! Wang Tsai did a good job! At noon today, you will be rewarded with a chicken leg and a bowl of spring water. Yun Tao jumped off the stone, took the pheasant out of Wang Zai's mouth, and patted its head as a sign of encouragement.
"Xiaobai" didn't have an empty mouth and went back, chased for more than ten meters, knocked the little pheasant out with one paw, bit its wings, and brought back the little pheasant that was still twitching and struggling.
"Brother-in-law, are we pheasants and hares at noon?" Zeng Yue asked curiously.
"That's right!" Yun Tao said.
"Brother-in-law, did you bring pots and pans?"
Zeng Yue asked with some confusion, there are no pots and pans, Zeng Yue can't understand how her brother-in-law can get these wild meats?
"Hehe, I'll make you a chicken and a rabbit! You don't need those to come," Yun Tao said with a smile.
"Called a chicken, called a rabbit?" Lin Qiuju looked at Yun Tao with some confusion and said.
"Don't ask any more questions, just wait for something delicious."
As he spoke, Yun Tao picked up two pheasants and a hare, skinned them on the side stream, cleaned them, and then smeared the cleaned pheasants with homemade spices, smeared them with a layer of rapeseed oil, and wrapped them in large mulberry leaves. But no matter how large the mulberry leaves are, they can't wrap the pheasant, which needs to be assisted by small green vines. Wrap a few pieces and add new mulberry leaves until the whole chicken is completely wrapped in green mulberry leaves.
The other hare was also wrapped in the same way, and then some yellow hard mud was grabbed from the side of the stream, mixed into a suitable mud, and covered the pheasant and hare that had been treated. These yellow mud are called Guanyin soil, in the past, there was a famine and some people directly ate this mud, and they were not digested in the stomach, and they died directly after the worst slump.
However, it is the most suitable to use it as a wrapping material called flower chicken, and after it is burned, it not only has the grassy aroma of fresh leaves, but also the unique fragrance of the earth, which is mixed with the fragrance of pheasant, and it is definitely the best delicacy in the world.
After everything was done, Yuntao dug a small pit in the ground, put the game in it, and then covered it with a thin layer of soil, Yuntao found a pile of firewood and put it on it, lit it with a lighter, and burned it.
"Brother-in-law, that's it?" Zeng Yue asked with some confusion.
"That's it, this method is very simple, but the taste is definitely very delicious, you will know it later." Yun Tao said with a smile.
"Is it really going to be delicious?" Lin Qiuju also asked with some disbelieving.
"Hehe, you'll know when you taste it later, if the taste is not good, the chicken won't be so famous." Yun Tao said with a smile.
After about ten minutes, the smell of meat came from under the ground.
"Brother-in-law, it's so fragrant!" Zeng Yue sniffed the fragrance and said in surprise.
"Hehe, when you eat it, you will know that the taste of Ludao is definitely better than that of you." Yun Tao said with a smile.
"Brother Tao, okay, no!" Lin Qiuju swallowed and said.
"It's coming!" Yun Tao said.
After five or six minutes, when Yun Tao extinguished the burning wood and pulled the chicken out of the ground, he gently knocked it with a stick, and the soil cracked, and a very peculiar fragrance emanated from it.
There is also a legend about the origin of the chicken. According to legend, in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, often! There is a flower at the foot of Shuyu Mountain, one day I occasionally got a chicken, but there was no cooking utensils and seasoning, in desperation, the chicken was slaughtered to remove the internal organs, the hair was coated with mud, the dead branches and leaves were piled into a fire, and the chicken was put into the fire to barbecue.
When the mud is dry and mature, knock off the mud shell, the chicken feathers come off with the shell, the aroma is overflowing, so that the son is overjoyed, and then hug the chicken and gobble it up, just the bachelor Qian Muzhai who lives in seclusion in Yushan passes by, smells the fragrance and tastes it, feels that the taste is unique, and goes home and orders his family to season it a little like the method, and the taste is even more delicious.
Later, this cooking method spread among the people, and everyone called this cooked chicken "called Hua". Later, this practice was learned by the people in the restaurant, and the preparation method was also refined, and a variety of seasoning accessories were added, so it won the appreciation of many diners, and the reputation was far and wide, and the admirers tasted it all year round.
"Brother-in-law, give it to me!"
Zeng Yue smelled the fragrance and couldn't help but coquettishly say to her brother-in-law, this fragrance is so wonderful, Zeng Yue couldn't help but swallow this chicken into her stomach immediately.
Lin Qiuju also looked at Yuntao with watery eyes, this called Hua Chicken and Hua Rabbit smelled really good, and Lin Qiuju's stomach couldn't help but growl.
"Hehe, it's a little hot now, you can eat it after a while!"
Yun Tao said, after all, the temperature of the newly unearthed chicken is very high, and if you eat it at this time, it is easy to burn.
After five or six minutes, Yun Tao opened the lotus leaf on the chicken, tore the chicken leg and gave it to Zeng Yue, and the other chicken leg to Lin Qiuju. "Taste it and see how it tastes!" Yun Tao said.
Zeng Yue took the chicken leg and blew it gently in her mouth, and she couldn't wait to put it in her mouth, and soon the whole person was stunned.
"Zeng Yue, what's wrong with you?"
Lin Qiuju asked Zeng Yue, who was sitting opposite her, with some concern, Zeng Yue's appearance now made people look a little strange.
"It's too ~~~ too delicious!" Zeng Yue came back to her senses and said excitedly, and after speaking, she desperately gnawed on the chicken leg in her hand.
"Is that an exaggeration?" Lin Qiuju looked at Zeng Yue, who was gobbling up, with some suspicion, and also put the chicken leg in her mouth.
But soon, she was like Zeng Yue, and she was stunned for a moment, but she reacted faster than Zeng Yue, and immediately gobbled it up like Zeng Yue. (To be continued......)
