"Brother Xu, you are responsible for cleaning the feathers and internal organs of these pheasants. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" Xin Yue looked at the pheasants, thinking about how to use the existing materials to make the delicious dish that Xin Yue had been hungry for a long time, but had no chance to eat, "Feng Xiao, you pick some wide leaves around." ”

Xu Chu led people to carry the killed pheasants to a small ravine in the north, where there was a small mountain spring with sweet water, just enough to clean up these slaughtered pheasants.

Guo Jia, on the other hand, went to pick leaves. The trees in this area are temperate deciduous broad-leaved forests, so you don't need to run far, just be nearby to complete the task. Guo Jia looked up under the trees, and only when he found that the tree was almost the largest, he picked it off.

And Xin Yue seems to be looking for something in the forest?

After a while, I saw Xin Yue holding a cluster of things that looked like onions and not onions, which looked exactly the same as green onions, but the bottom was like garlic, fat.

"Brother Xin Yue, what are you holding?" Guo Jia looked at what Xin Yue was holding and didn't understand.

"It's garlic!" Xin Yue raised a handful of garlic in his hand, and then continued: "This is a good thing, it can strengthen the spleen and appetize, help digestion, relieve oiliness, and promote appetite." For the infirm, shallot white can moisten and replenish deficiency and make people hardy. In addition, regular consumption is good for strengthening muscles and bones. ”

When Guo Jia heard that there was such a good thing in this forest, he happily picked garlic with Xin Yue. Xin Yue stopped: "No need, this is enough, I plan to use this little garlic for seasoning, and if you put too much, it will taste too heavy, but it will not be good." ”

"Oh, that's right." Guo Jia was a little discouraged, but then he thought of something, and immediately asked Xin Yue with a smile on his face: "Then are there any other seasonings in this mountain forest?" ”

Xin Yue could see that Guo Jia thought that since he could find a seasoning like garlic, there might be others.

Xin Yue shook his head helplessly, "It's good to meet this, but don't worry, we also bring some salt, pepper, ginger and other spices, and we promise to make you a fragrant meal later." ”

Guo Jia, whose face was sinking again, immediately lit up again when he heard that there would be food, as if he had thought of the scene where he would feast for a while.

"Brother Xin Yue, what are you going to do?" Guo Jia handed over the leaves in his hand to Xin Yue, but Guo Jia was a little puzzled by the fact that the leaves were used for cooking.

"The dish I make is called 'Chicken Chicken'."

"No, how could you have such a name?" Guo Jia was a little incredulous.

The food culture of the Han Dynasty has developed considerably, not only inheriting the northern and southern flavors of the Spring and Autumn Period, but also the four local cuisines of Lu cuisine, Suzhou cuisine, Cantonese cuisine and Sichuan cuisine that have gradually taken shape in the Qin Dynasty. The food culture of the Han Dynasty was already rich.

However, although the food culture of the Han Dynasty has been very rich, it still inherits the pre-Qin format in the name of the dishes, such as beef white soup, dog liver roast, deer breast, etc., all of which can be seen at a glance what materials are used to make the food, and there will be no such names as the phoenix tour on the Phoenix Stage in later generations - spiced roast chicken, so Guo Jia felt so strange when he heard what Xin Yue was going to do "called flower chicken", is there something called "called flower" in this Caizhong?

Seeing Guo Jia's confused appearance, Xin Yue knew that it must be because of the name "called Hua Ji" that made Guo Jia confused.

So Xin Yue explained to Guo Jia: "Speaking of the origin of this" called flower chicken "or there is an allusion, according to legend, in the last years of the first Qin Dynasty, wars broke out, the people were not happy, a man named Huazi stole a chicken, but did not know how to eat, so wrapped the chicken with lotus leaves, the outer layer was pasted with mud, and it was slowly roasted on the fire, and the food was sweet and abnormal, so it was named." ”

Of course, in Xin Yue's story, the time changed from the late Ming and early Qing dynasties to the pre-Qin period.

Guo Jia also understood that the word "called flower" originally meant to be called Huazi, and couldn't help sighing: "I didn't expect that calling Huazi could also invent such a practice." ”

After a while, Xu Chu washed the four pheasants and brought them back.

"Brother Xin Yue, you think this is okay, right?"

Xin Yue saw that the feather and internal organs were all removed cleanly, but he didn't expect Xu Chu to look five big and three thick, and he was not ambiguous when he did these meticulous work, so he said: "Very good." ”

Xu Chu immediately smiled when he heard this, although he was a brother, but everyone took Xin Yue as the backbone, and it was a happy thing to get Xin Yue's praise.

After being happy, Xu Chu suddenly thought of something. He asked with some doubts: "Brother Xin Yue, what are you going to do when you asked me to put a bag of river mud in a bag just now?" ”

"Hehe, you'll understand right away, by the way, why didn't you see (the river mud)?"

"In the back, I'll be right away." As soon as he finished speaking, Xin Yue saw a few people with some mud stains on their bodies coming up behind him, and a few people were carrying a bag of things.

Put all the prepared ingredients together, Xin Yue first used salt to spread the washed chicken inside and out, and then used some marinating accessories to marinate a few pheasants for a while, although it can't be marinated for long due to time problems, but it can still be marinated for ten minutes.

After doing this, Xin Yue followed everyone to make a fire and cook, Xu Chu and they caught a lot of prey, birds, hares, etc., these are used for barbecue. At the beginning, when Xin Yue taught everyone to barbecue, everyone felt that it was no different from usual, but it was the difference in some other details, such as marinating in advance, barbecue heat control, etc., but the taste of barbecue was greatly improved, so everyone begged Xin Yue to teach them something called "barbecue".

After that, everyone fell in love with barbecue, and once they caught game, they always had to barbecue, which was convenient and delicious.

When the barbecue here is on the shelves, the marinated pheasants over there are almost the same.

Xin Yue filled the washed garlic and pounded ginger into the belly of the chicken, and then sewed the broken chicken belly with grass, and then wrapped the pheasant with the leaves picked by Guo Jia just now.

After that, the pheasants are coated with a modest layer of "armor" on the outside of the pheasants with river mud, and they are ready to be fired.

And Xin Yue did not directly put the wrapped pheasant into the open flame to roast, but buried it under the fire, so that the temperature is enough and uniform, which is very suitable for making this "called chicken".

"Hehe, Bonghyo, what's the matter, can't wait?" Xin Yue saw Guo Jia's eyes staring at the fire, and then looked at Guo Jia's drooling look, and couldn't help but ask funny.

"Yes, Brother Xin Yue, how long will it take to get better, it's been a quarter of an hour." Guo Jia swallowed his saliva secretly as he spoke.

Xu Chu also came over and said: "Yes, I really want to taste it, every time the barbecue made by the Xin Yue brothers is much more delicious than what we grilled, I am strange, obviously the process is the same." Then he looked at the fire and continued: "Today's 'Hua Chicken' dish must be more delicious, because I have never seen the Xin Yue brothers so excited when they talk about barbecue, hehe!" ”

"You also said that every time I teach you to say that you can't imitate me, you have to judge how to bake it according to the situation of the things you bake in your hands, but you just can't learn it, so naturally it won't be as delicious as I bake. As for the 'flower chicken', hehe, it's really delicious, don't grab it for a while! Xin Yue also said jokingly.

"It's not like we haven't learned for a long time, so we can't grasp the heat!" Xu Chu scratched his head.

And Guo Jia, when he heard Xin Yue say the word "delicious", his saliva immediately flowed, and he said: "Don't worry, Brother Xin Yue, I won't rob you, and you see me like this, I can't rob you!" "But in my heart, I have another plan: hehe, I'll start first in a while, and I'll grab it if I can't grab it in front, I'll fight it today.

On the other side, Xin Yue nodded and thought at the same time: Looking at the appearance of a few guys, you can know that there must be something planned, no, I have to think of another trick.

So, when he saw that the "called flower chicken" in the fire should be almost over, Xin Yue suddenly called Wu Da and others, and then ordered: "Wu Da, you will take out the pheasant in the fire in a while and break the outer crust." ”

"Yes!"

At this time, Guo Jia was in a hurry, and they all handed it over to Wuhan University, how could they "strike first"?

"Brother Xin Yue, don't bother Brother Wu and them, just let me and Brother Xu come." Xu Chu also nodded.

Xin Yue didn't answer, just smiled.

Seeing Xin Yue's meaningful smile, Guo Jia immediately withered, it turned out that his plan had already been seen through by Brother Xin Yue. - Xin Yue: Hmph, I played with these tricks in the previous life and lost them when you were still running a family.

When Wu Da and the others opened the crust outside the "Flower Chicken", there was an attractive fragrance, and everyone couldn't help but tilt their noses and immerse themselves in this intoxicating fragrance.

Guo Jia couldn't stop drooling, "Brother Xin Yue, can you give me a little more for a while?" I have a small belly, I don't want barbecue, just eat this 'called flower chicken'. ”

Looking at the poor Guo Jiaxinyue, he could only say: "Okay, when the time comes, I will share a chicken thigh with you!" ”

"Yay!" Guo Jia immediately jumped up happily, Xin Yue could only touch his nose on the side, and at the same time said in his heart: "Fengxiao, don't blame the eldest brother, I originally wanted to share one more chicken wing from you, since you said that you have a small belly, then I will reluctantly do it, hahaha...... "I don't know what Guo Jia would do if he knew what Xin Yue was thinking at the moment!"
