Chapter 39: Smoked Meat

Lu Laohan helplessly pinched those meats, hard and hard, how to eat them!

After smelling it, there was a smell of smoke accompanied by the smell of meat, which was acceptable.

When Lu Tingcheng walked into the drying room, he saw Lu Laohan moving around the meat, and asked with some curiosity: "Dad, what are you doing?" ”

"Girl, can you really eat this hard one?"

Regarding Lu Qingcheng's bizarre practices, he didn't plan to ask her where she knew.

Anyway, I asked, and I saw it in the book, and he only had regrets about his own almighty book......

"Of course you can eat it!"

This is a popular smoked meat in China, why can't you eat it! Besides, she can't eat it, and she won't do it.

Smoked meat is smoked dry and watery, red and bright in color, smoky and salty.

To make smoked meat, you have to use pork, but no one in the village has pigs, so they have to experiment with these wild animals first.

This is also for the benefit of the hunters, if it is feasible, then they will hunt more in the future, and they will not have to worry about breaking down.

On top of that, it's easy to make smoked meat, and it's easy to preserve.

The fresh meat is marinated in peppercorns, dried chili seeds, cooking wine and salt, and then smoked on a low flame with fragrant cypress branches.

After the meat is smoked, washed and steamed, it is mellow and fragrant, fat but not greasy, thin but not stiff, and the aftertaste is endless.

Smoked pork is a traditional famous dish, which is found in Hunan cuisine and Sichuan cuisine.

Lu Laohan didn't know about this dish, otherwise he would definitely like it.

It's useless to say more, let's speak with facts, you can cut a section and cook it and steam it to eat today.

I don't believe I can't capture this father and son, this is one of her favorite dishes.

"That's okay, it's all smoked, you can't give up halfway." If it's because of his suspicions, it's not good to spoil the girl's affairs.

"If you can't afford it, you can rest assured!"

"By the way, how long does this thing have to be smoked? It's been smoked for two days, and I think it's pretty dry, isn't it? ”

If you smoke it again, can you still eat it? Will it be too hard to bite?

He is old, his teeth are not very good, if he can't eat, he can only give it to his son.

"Not yet, at least you have to smoke it for more than seven days, otherwise the center will not be able to smoke through, and it will not be easy to preserve."

Modern times can still find ways to increase the shelf life, but this is not the case.

"So long?" Then he won't be able to bite it!

"It's not long, it's already the minimum term, and the smoked meat will have to be smoked for a little longer."

Otherwise, how can it be kept for so long? It's all smoked, and the drier it is, the better.

Lu Laohan was suspicious, but Lu Chengcheng had already picked a small piece and took it.

"Isn't it smoked as dry as possible, what are you going to do with it?"

"Add vegetables tonight, let you test its deliciousness in advance!" Let's just talk about the facts.

Lu Qingcheng went out with the meat, and Lu Laohan continued to look at the meat.

Lu Dazhuang is studying his recipes, but fortunately, their family has been in good condition recently, and there is surplus food for him to study.

Lu Qingcheng pushed the door and walked in, and said as he came in: "Big brother, make smoked meat to eat at night!" ”

"Smoked meat? Can you eat it? ”

Lu Dazhuang still couldn't react, didn't he say that he wanted to smoke dry! Smoked dry in two days?

"It's OK to eat, but it's not good, and we'll have to smoke it for a few more days."

Lu Qingcheng was really tired, so he explained it outside, and then he explained it here.

"Oh! How? ”

It doesn't seem to be on the recipe? Lu Dazhuang immediately looked at it and made sure that he didn't look at Lu Chengcheng.

Lu Qingcheng raised his hand to support his forehead, and said helplessly: "Big brother, there are thousands of dishes in the world, and I can't write them all down."

I just made a note of what I could think of temporarily, and you studied it thoroughly, and I remembered it later, and added it. ”

Again, this man is a natural chef.

"Then I'll record the method of this smoked meat first!" It's nice that he has one more dish to his recipe.

"Big brother, smoked meat can be eaten in a variety of ways, because it can be fried with other dishes at will, or steamed and eaten alone.

The prerequisite is that it must be washed and cooked before cooking.

Let's simply cook it today, then slice it and steam it to eat, so that you can intuitively feel the deliciousness of this dish. ”

"Okay, how far can you get it out?"

"Cook until you use chopsticks to insert the skin of the meat, you can insert it in, the skin of the meat is too hard to chew, and it takes time when steaming."

Look, natural chef material, ask questions to the point.

"With so much salt to marinate, you shouldn't need to add salt when frying, right?" With salt, will it be too salty?

Lu Qingcheng gave Lu Dazhuang a thumbs up and said, "Big brother is amazing, you have thought of the key points."

When the smoked meat is fried, you really don't need to add salt, just add some non-salty condiments and cooking wine to stir-fry. ”

Lu Dazhuang was a little embarrassed by Lu Qingcheng's praise, he just cooked more dishes and had more experience.

"I'm out to dry mushrooms, I'll leave the rest to you!"

The father and son didn't let her cook, and she was happy, so she went out to dry those mountain goods.

Lu Dazhuang lit the earthen stove, boiled water to wash the bacon, and washed the bacon clean according to her instructions.

Then add water to the pot, put the washed bacon in the pot, and start to cook.

Seeing that it was still early to cook, he picked up his recipe and continued to study, adding some firewood into the earthen stove from time to time.

Soon after, a smell wafted from the pot on the stovetop.

Lu Dazhuang stopped studying the recipe, put the recipe into his arms, and stood up.

Some curiously opened the lid of the pot, the heat surged, and the aroma was even stronger.

Lu Dazhuang is a little short of words, and he can't say what it tastes like, but it is certain that he likes this taste.

According to Lu Tingcheng's request, he picked up a pair of chopsticks and inserted them into the meat skin! It can be inserted, but it is still a little hard, so I close the lid and continue cooking.

He now believed in Lu Qingcheng's words, not only could this thing be eaten, but it was very likely that it tasted good.

He's looking forward to having dinner early!

Estimating that the time was almost up, Lu Dazhuang opened the lid of the pot again and tried to poke the meat skin again with chopsticks.

It's easy to insert the chopsticks this time, and that's it!

He took out a large bowl and inserted the bacon one by one with chopsticks.

The bright yellow color looks particularly attractive.

Lu Dazhuang couldn't help but cut off a piece with a knife and couldn't wait to put it in his mouth! The entrance is salty and fragrant, and when you eat carefully, it has the fragrance of pine and cypress and the taste of smoke.

It's also a little spicy, and people can't help but want to taste it again!

Several flavors are well integrated, creating this unique taste, Lu Dazhuang couldn't help but cut off another piece and taste it carefully.

Good things always want to be shared with important people, and Lu Dazhuang is the same! He cut a small piece of bacon into slices, placed it on a plate and served it out.

He wanted his father and sister to share his joy with him, the joy of discovering good food.
