Chapter Seventy-Eight: Barbecue
In the next two days, the weather was gloomy, and Ye Wen took advantage of this to take pictures of them at Li Zhen's house to fulfill his promise. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
On the third day, it began to rain heavily, but fortunately, Ye Wen's underground villa waterproofing measures and other equipment were well enough, that is, it was not damp and did not feel bored. Ye Wen, Lin Xiaomei, and the matchmaker have been spending time in the underground villa.
After the rain stopped, the sun hung high, and it didn't take long for the muddy dirt roads of Chang'an City to become dry, and the scorching summer heat enveloped Chang'an City again.
With Ye Wen's summer holy place, Princess Qinghe and Mrs. Cheng Chumo came again. When they came, they also brought their husbands, and Princess Runan did not fall to the table.
At this time, Ye Wen, Cheng Chumo, and Cheng Chuliang were wearing big pants, lying on the deck chair in the swimming pool, basking in the sun, drinking juice, and chatting, which was also very comfortable. And those ladies, surely will not come up, and are busy with their own things in the underground villas.
At noon, Ye Wen and the others got dressed and went down to the underground villa. Seeing that the matchmaker was preparing lunch, Ye Wen hurriedly stopped the matchmaker, and Ye Wen wanted to prepare a barbecue on it.
Prepare the tools and ingredients for the barbecue. Take them to a wide meadow above, set up a table in the shadow of a large tree, pull a line, and put an electric fan. Then on the grass not far away, set up a barbecue, put charcoal, and light it. The charcoal is selected from the branches of the tree, and the whole tuber is not used, otherwise it is not easy to ignite.
Everyone ate barbecue for the first time and felt a little curious, and everyone gathered around Ye Wen and watched how Ye Wen fiddled.
"What is this?" When Ye Wen was lighting the fire with a lighter, Cheng Chu, who was onlookers, asked silently.
"This is a lighter, for ignition." Ye Wen gestured to everyone again.
Cheng Chumo took Ye Wen's lighter, fiddled with it again, and saw that he had lit it, he was quite excited, and Cheng Chuliang on the side also wanted to try it.
When you're about the same, put on the grill net. Then put on disposable gloves and thread the food with a barbecue needle on the table next to you.
"You can eat whatever you want." Ye Wen saw that they were still standing aside and watching, and said angrily.
"Oh," the crowd replied.
People who had long wanted to try it also followed Ye Wen with disposable gloves and began to pick up the food they wanted to eat.
The food, Ye Wen prepared quite sufficiently. The meat has mutton, mutton is the star of barbecue, the most suitable for barbecue is the leg of mutton, cut into small pieces, inserted in the grilled chisel, fat and thin are more fragrant, but don't apply oil first! The lamb will make its own oil when grilling!
Pork: It must be cooked until it is fully cooked before eating, and the pork belly with tender ribs, loins and rumps and a little fat is chosen, so that the grilled meat is not too dry.
Beef: Beef ribs, tender and tough; Beef shoulder is the most tender meat that is best for roasting, and beef should not be roasted until fully cooked, as it will destroy the tenderness of the meat.
Chicken: Any cut is a good ingredient for grilling. Soak it in lemon water and sprinkle some starch before grilling to make the meat more tender. In addition, semi-processed chicken wings, chicken tenders, chicken gizzards, etc. are also stars on the barbecue grill.
Cured meats include luncheon meats, sausages, cured meats, and bacon, which are easy to carry and have a unique flavor.
Seafood is another major source of barbecue, but it's more difficult to operate than meat, and the key is to buy fresh seafood and season it.
Fish and seafood include live fish, shrimp, hairy crabs, scallops, squid, cuttlefish, etc.
Vegetables and fruits include potatoes, corn, sweet potatoes, yams, taro, greens, leeks, garlic, eggplant, green peppers, onions, lettuce (lettuce wrapped in meat) and green peppers are all popular barbecue vegetables for outdoor barbecuers. Fruits such as bananas, apples, walnuts and nuts are also suitable for outdoor barbecues, especially roasted bananas, which have become a signature dish for outdoor barbecues. Enoki mushrooms, oyster mushrooms and other mushroom ingredients can also be grilled and eaten outdoors, and the taste is also fresher. It can be described as greasy and easy to make.
The seasonings include chili powder (Lao Gan Ma), cumin, blended oil, salt, barbecue sauce (juice), seafood seasoning, garlic, ginger, chopped green onion, five-spice powder, honey, tomato sauce, carrot sauce, sweet noodle sauce, soy sauce, and various barbecue sauces.
The staple food also includes steamed bread slices, bread slices, baked cakes, pizza, etc., they themselves have enough taste, and do not need to add much seasoning, the steamed bread is cut into about 1 cm thick slices, baked until the surface is crispy, brushed with oil and sprinkled with pepper and salt, turned over and baked slightly, the fragrance is unbearable......
There are also pears, pineapples, watermelons, lemons, citrus, bananas, papayas, apples, cantaloupe, etc., which are also put together into fruit platters, and there is a juicer on the side for people to use.
Beverages include cola, mineral water, orange juice, herbal tea, wine, beer, etc.
These things were placed, but a whole large table was placed.
"What do you want to eat?" Ye Wen asked Lin Xiaomei beside him.
"This, and this." There were some things that she couldn't reach, so she naturally asked Ye Wen to help.
When the food is almost chosen, put it on the grill net and start grilling.
Of course, Ye Wen was distressed about his daughter-in-law, and did not let her barbecue on the side. Instead, he asked her what she wanted to eat, and then grilled it for her. Of course, I also have to barbecue for Princess Runan, after all, she is eating vinegar on the side.
The people on the side followed Ye Wenxue quite well, brushing the sauce with a clean brush. Of course, sometimes Ye Wen has to give them guidance.
However, they didn't fiddle for long, and Princess Qinghe didn't feel at ease when she handed over her food to her husband for barbecue, and then handed it over to Ye Wen on the grounds that Princess Runan was the younger sister. By the way, he also handed over Mrs. Cheng Chumo's food to Ye Wen, and Mrs. Cheng Chumo also had this idea, but she felt embarrassed, but Princess Qinghe did it for her, and she didn't refuse.
Now there are Ye Wen and Cheng Chumo, Cheng Chuliang and the matchmaker who are barbecuing, Ye Wen wants the matchmaker to go over to rest and barbecue for her by himself, anyway, she has a lot of debts and is not pressing.
But the matchmaker shook her head and refused, she was still learning on the side, which was much more standardized than the two Cheng Chumo brothers.
When the first batch of grills is finished, put it on a plate and bring it to the table. The matchmaker didn't want to come over yet, and wanted to continue the barbecue food, Ye Wen was worried that she would suffer from heat stroke, so he forcibly pulled her to sit on the table.
Start a cold beer, and follow Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chuliang with a bottle per person. And the ladies, they have juice to drink, naturally they don't drink beer.
After toasting, I started to eat barbecue, and when the first batch of barbecue was finished, it was natural to roast again.
And Cheng Chumo and Cheng Chuliang didn't bake it very well for the first time, while Ye Wen roasted it more deliciously, so they naturally didn't want to go again. Ye Wen had to bake it for them, which is really capable. It seems that it is not a good thing to have Xiaokong's guidance, but without Xiaokong's guidance, the taste is not so good, and it is also two-sided.
