Chapter 1317 Purslane

Meng Chuan saw that everyone was starting to drink wild vegetable soup, so he didn't care about them, but turned his head to the chief of staff and said, "Everyone has started to eat, let's not be stunned, there are still fifty minutes left, go to the cooking class to get some food." ”

The chief of staff also felt hungry, so he instructed several instructors: "You guard the students, and I will ask the cooks to bring you food later." ”

After speaking, he followed Meng Chuan to the cooking class, walked into the cafeteria, and the chief of staff took a plate for Meng Chuan, but Meng Chuan didn't answer: "You can eat it yourself, there are cooked wild vegetables in the cooking class, I'll go and eat some wild vegetables." ”

For eating, the chief of staff doesn't need to be too cautious, after all, he is just Meng Chuan's subordinate, but at this time, the chief of staff still put down the dinner plate, followed Meng Chuan into the back kitchen, and said as he walked: "It's very hot this weather, or I'll eat some wild vegetables with you to reduce the fire." ”

Meng Chuan nodded, "Okay, I'm afraid you won't be used to it, but as the military leader of Tepei, it's not okay if you can't get used to it." ”

Just when the two of them walked into the back kitchen, the political commissar also walked into the cafeteria, and immediately saw the backs of the two of them, felt a little surprised and confused, and then looked at the correspondent, "Are they Director Meng and Chief of Staff Hu who entered the back kitchen just now?" ”

Because the correspondent came in early, he saw it more clearly, nodded and replied: "It's these two leaders." ”

The four important departments of the army that participate in politics and are equipped basically correspond to the two departments of the regiment commander in charge of staff officers and equipment, because these two departments are closely related to military training.

Most of the political commissars are in charge of the political and logistics departments, after all, the political commissar is in charge of ideological life, and he must manage these two departments well.

The cooking class in the canteen is obviously under the jurisdiction of the political commissar, of course, this is not to say that the head of the regiment can't manage it, but they have different emphasis, so when Meng Chuan walked into the back kitchen, the political commissar thought that something was wrong in the back kitchen, so he immediately said: "Let's go, go to the back kitchen and have a look." ”

As soon as Meng Chuan picked up the boiled wild vegetables and was about to eat them with rice, the political commissar strode in and said with a hearty smile: "Director Meng, you are also in the back kitchen, what?" Does the food not fit your mouth? ”

When Meng Chuan heard the voice, he turned his head to see that it was the political commissar Gao who came, so he pointed to the cooked wild vegetables in the basin, "Lao Hu and I plan to change the taste and eat some wild vegetables, will the political commissar eat them?" ”

When the high political commissar heard this, he didn't understand what Meng Chuan meant, you didn't eat the meat and vegetables outside, and came here to eat wild vegetables?

However, he didn't ask in a hurry, but agreed first, "You, the director of special training, have eaten wild vegetables, and I, the political commissar, naturally have to follow your pace, I have eaten this wild vegetables, although the taste is a little sour, but there is still no problem with the mouth." ”

The reason why Political Commissar Gao said this is also to take advantage of this to gain an in-depth understanding of Meng Chuan.

In fact, Deputy Political Commissar Gao has always been very entangled with Meng Chuan's appointment as the deputy director of Tepei, because Meng Chuan seems to be a character who suddenly came out of the special operations brigade, and he has never heard of him at all, of course, this is not because Gao Political Commissar thinks he is incompetent, on the contrary, because he knows what kind of place Tepei is, and those who can be military commanders here will definitely not be idle.

Moreover, the party committee of the brigade headquarters will never allow a person who has no ability to hold such an important position.

So for his partner, Political Commissar Gao has always had an understanding attitude, but Meng Chuan went to the grassroots level to pick up troops, and it didn't take long to come back, so until now, Political Commissar Gao still doesn't know Meng Chuan very well, so he can take this opportunity to learn more about Meng Chuan.

Because of the time, Meng Chuan only planned to eat the wild vegetables cold this time, after all, it would take twenty minutes to go back and forth, so the time for cooking and eating should not exceed thirty minutes, otherwise it would be delayed.

Meng Chuan first took out a handful of boiled purslane, purslane is really super common, not to mention the wild, you can go to any place with soil, even in front of the house and behind the house, you may be able to see this purslane.

Wild vegetables with such a wide range of growth power are naturally one of the first foods that special combat team members are looking for, so Meng Chuan can often eat them, of course, wild vegetables are wild vegetables after all, even if they are common, they can't replace home-cooked vegetables after all, but once in a while, or to satisfy hunger, this is no problem at all.

Moreover, purslane is a wild vegetable that has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, and dandelion has the same effect, so in the hot season or in summer, it is a very good choice to drink a bowl of mung bean porridge with a cold purslane small cold dish.

Because the taste of purslane is slightly sour, if you want to eat it, you have to cook it for a little longer, and any wild vegetables, as long as they are boiled in boiling water, whether they are sour or bitter, will be much smaller.

The purslane here is cooked, Meng Chuan directly used a kitchen knife to cut the wild vegetables into small pieces, and then put them in a basin of cold water to cool, which is a very important step, because after this is cooled, the taste of the wild vegetables will be much better, and it will not feel very soft and noodles when eaten, on the contrary, there will be some tendons.

After cooling, take it out and put it on a plate, pat some minced garlic and ginger, here is a special reminder, minced garlic and ginger are best crushed with a knife first, and then chopped into foam, because the ginger and garlic crushed with a knife, whether it is to remove the smell or other flavors, the effect is far better than slicing directly with a knife.

Then put in a spoonful of light soy sauce, a spoonful of vinegar, half a spoon of sugar, a spoonful of salt, Meng Chuan likes to eat spicy, so put some pepper oil and spicy oil, in fact, Meng Chuan is more suggestive cold wild vegetables are more spicy.

After all, the fragrance of wild vegetables is not as good as home-cooked vegetables, and if you put spicy ones, it will be more delicious, and if you want to eat something lighter, then it is better to eat ordinary vegetables than to eat wild vegetables.

Finally, if you like two drops of sesame oil, you can put a little chopped green onion and coriander if you like more flavor, if you don't like it, Meng Chuan likes it more, because these two side dishes can significantly improve the taste of cold dishes.

Besides, the chopped green onions and coriander foam in the cooking class are ready-made, so Meng Chuan directly pinched a little and put it in, and then mixed well.

When the political commissar and Chief of Staff Hu smelled the refreshing and fragrant smell of cold salad wild vegetables, they were also taken aback, they had all eaten the wild vegetable of cold salad purslane, and they usually ate this for health, or to make it fresh, because the taste of this dish is not particularly good, and the taste of eating is even more average.

But the cold purslane made by Meng Chuan is completely different, it is very refreshing at a glance, and the spicy fragrance is slowly exuding, and the color of each wild vegetable is even more fresh and green, and the two of them suddenly screamed in their stomachs, and their appetite rose to the point that they wanted to eat a cow.
