Chapter 26 Braised pork with bamboo shoots
Jiang Yu thought through all the information about this dish that could come to mind in her head, and finally suddenly realized a question - can Chef He let her touch the stove?
He turned a blind eye to making snacks and didn't care about Jiang Yu, but if he wanted to cook, he would definitely not agree!
As for Shopkeeper Chen, he can allow himself to make dim sum, but he may not let her be in charge.
It seems that I can only practice secretly at night, and the ingredients are estimated to be solved by myself. Fortunately, bamboo shoots and dried hawthorn are not difficult to buy, and it is enough to pick a good piece of pork belly.
Jiang Yu took advantage of the free time from doing work during the day to soak the dried bamboo shoots and dried hawthorns, she counted the hours, and couldn't let them bubble up. When everyone is out of work, this point is just right. Jiang Yu has always been the last to clean up the kitchen, so it is natural to use this excuse to stay, and besides, everyone knows that she likes to toss snacks.
The soaked bamboo shoots were cut into small strips, which was not a delicate job, so Jiang Yu did it casually. She didn't have time to boil it for another hour, so she only boiled the dried bamboo shoots in cold water for a while, and then fished them out and set them aside.
Wash the pork belly and cut it into boxy pieces, skim off the blood foam with boiling water again, add ginger slices and cooking wine to remove the smell and boil. When it is almost cooked, put it aside and let it cool first, wait for the pot to heat up, and then return the meat to the pot and fry it slightly, until both sides are slightly burnt, and the oil fragrance is also fried, which is almost the same.
Pour out some of the fat oil, throw a few rock sugars into the pot and fry the sugar color, wait until the rock sugar gradually melts, and then pour in some soy sauce and stir-fry to color, Jiang Yu grasps the heat, so that each piece of meat is stained with color and will not fry the sugar color.
When you are almost done, pour in boiling water and soak the meat pieces. Then stew the soaked dried bamboo shoots and meat together, put a few hawthorns, and then take out the green onion and ginger slices in the pot to avoid spoiling the smell. The aroma of meat slowly filled the entire kitchen, Jiang Yu sniffed, feeling that the smell should be similar to that of Baiweiju, and she planned to let Jiang An try the taste.
As the heat gradually decreases, the soup thickens, and the gravy can be poured evenly over the rice and mixed with it, which is very appetizing. Jiang Yu didn't do much, which happened to be the amount she and Jiang An ate. Jiang An has been growing up recently, and today can be regarded as a small stove.
Jiang An was used to Jiang Yu bringing something back to eat from time to time, but this time it seemed to be particularly fragrant. When the food box was opened, there were two bowls of braised pork and rice in it - Jiang An's eyes lit up.
The child couldn't resist the temptation of delicious food, so he took the chopsticks from Jiang Yu's hand and buried his head in eating, occasionally humming twice with satisfaction.
"Isn't this the dish my aunt took me to eat that day?" Jiang An finally raised his head and said a word, with a grain of rice still on the corner of his mouth. Jiang Yu wiped his mouth for him and said with a smile: "Yes, what does An An think?" ”
Jiang An still had rice in his mouth, and he was a little slurred, "Mmmm, it's delicious!" I think my aunt made it delicious. ”
Where can a child taste so many differences, but Jiang Yu was a little relieved with this sentence. Although Jiang An is small, he is also a little bit of a mouthful, although he can't say it explicitly if it's not delicious, but he can't hide his expression in the end, it can be seen from his face, and now he is satisfied.
However, Jiang Yu felt that he could continue to improve when making this dish of dried braised pork with bamboo shoots, and he was also thinking about it these days, Jiang Yu thought that he would have time to talk to Shopkeeper Chen about it.
She went to pick up Jiang An as usual, but saw an unexpected guest in Jishitang, the original shopkeeper of Baiweiju.
At that time, Jiang An was still busy working in the backyard, and the guy told Jiang Yu to let her sit for a while and wait, Dr. Zhang might have something to explain to Jiang An. At this time, the original shopkeeper suddenly sat opposite Jiang Yu, and a guy brought a pot of tea and two teacups for the two of them.
Jiang Yu recognized it and nodded politely at him, and the original shopkeeper opened the conversation with a smile.
"Why did Miss Jiang come to the hospital, is she uncomfortable?"
"My nephew is studying medicine here, and I'm here to pick him up."
The original shopkeeper actually asked knowingly. He happened to come to help his family get medicine to regulate his body today, and he heard that Jiang Yu would come to Jishitang every day, so he specially waited here for a while. It's okay, he wants to find Jiang Yu's words, it's more convenient here.
"Miss Jiang is really hard. I have to take care of my nephew and work, and I don't know if the monthly money from Xiangmanyuan is enough? ”
Jiang Yu instantly understood the words of the original shopkeeper, this is a side knock and wants to dig her! She lowered her head and took a sip of water, hiding a slightly surprised look - what did the original shopkeeper want to do, and replied kindly: "It's okay, Shopkeeper Chen is generous to us, and I have taken a lot of reward money these days, which is enough to improve my nephew's life." ”
She didn't say no outright. Words can't be said to death at one time, otherwise it is easy to cause something, not to mention that Baiweiju and Xiangmanyuan are still at home.
The original shopkeeper was not annoyed at all, and continued to persuade with a smile: "Miss Jiang's skills are outstanding in Nancheng, if you put it in my Baiwei Ju, she will definitely be a dim sum master." I heard that Miss Jiang not only has to ponder dim sum, but also has to do chores in the back kitchen, which is really hard. ”
