Chapter 54: Poria Porridge
Qian Chef: "I already mentioned it to Steward He yesterday, and it should be sent over tomorrow." ”
When it comes to oil, Lin Yu'an remembers the question recorded in the small notebook, "Is the only oil used now as rapeseed oil?" ”
"There is also a kind of sesame oil, which is squeezed out of sesame seeds, which is very mellow, but the output is too small and the price is relatively expensive, and ordinary people rarely use it, but Yun ......" Chef Qian paused here before saying a little stiffly: "It is not used in ordinary daily meals." ”
Lin Yu'an probably understood that she originally wanted to say that the Yun family had something to use in the past.
"In addition, there is also soy sauce, such as lard and chicken fat......" Then Chef Qian explained the meat oil to Lin Yu'an like a few treasures, as if to cover up the mistake in the words just now.
Lin Yu'an took the opportunity to ask, "Isn't there soybean oil?" ”
"Soybean oil?"
Chef Qian looked over stunned, "May I ask what kind of oil is that?" ”
Seeing her react like this, Lin Yu'an knew that the soybean oil was out of play, so he had to mix it up and throw the pot on those merchants.
The main reason is that she herself doesn't know how soybean oil is produced, and if she can dream about it at night, she will write it down in a small notebook.
Alas, life in ancient times was so difficult!
Qian Chef Niang: "I see, people who go south and north have seen the world and know a lot of things, if you want to know more, you can ask the people in the oil mill." ”
"Where's the oil mill?"
Chef Qian's words woke up Lin Yu'an, in fact, some professional matters should be handled by professional people, just like when I proposed to burn soil and fertilizer, I asked some senior old farmers to ask, and they could also put forward useful suggestions.
Maybe with the right hints, they'll be able to find a breakthrough.
In this way, I will have something to do, and I will hide my merit and fame.
"We have one in the village." Chef Qian frowned for a moment, and said uncertainly: "It seems to be surnamed Zhang?" ”
Hongling added: "Mother, that person's name is Zhang Qiang. ”
Zhang Qiang?
The name was somewhat familiar, but she didn't remember it well.
"It's the youngest son of Uncle Zhang who was invited to come over that day to help watch the soil and fertilizer." Hongling reminded.
"Ah, Ah Zhen's husband!"
In fact, compared to Ah Qiang, it was the straw in Ah Zhen's clothes that made Lin Yu'an more impressed, since he was an acquaintance, it shouldn't be difficult to mention something, Lin Yu'an was thinking about when to go to the village.
When it was time for dinner, Little Fat Dun also came to the kitchen to eat with them, but when he saw that there were all the vegetarian dishes on the table again, he sighed lightly.
After stealing a glance at Lin Yu'an, who was talking to Qinghe, he quietly tugged at Xixi's sleeve.
Heeki looked over suspiciously.
Little Fat Dun whispered: "Sister Xixi, shall we go to the village tomorrow?" ”
However, Lin Yu'an has been paying attention to Xixi, and these small actions between the two have been fully watched by her.
"Why do you want to go to the village?"
"Uh......" The little chubby dun who was caught hesitated for a while, and finally chose to "betray" Mu Chen, anyway, he had already been sold by him, and his brother said that this was a courtesy exchange, "Brother Chen said that the pig was killed in Tianzhuang, it was a very lively thing." ”
"Kill pigs?"
Qing He added on the side: "It is the New Year's gift arranged by the townsman to the village before. ”
"I thought it had been divided a long time ago, why is it so slow?"
Little Fat Dun explained to her very seriously: "Killing pigs is not an ordinary thing, and you have to make a lot of preparations!" ”
"Oh?"
"For example, we should be optimistic about the day, make an agreement with the master who killed the pig, give the pig to be slaughtered an empty stomach in advance, and prepare the cauldron, rope, and big pole to weigh ......."
Lin Yu'an was a little surprised.
I didn't expect the son of a family with fine clothes and jade food to know so much about this process, and he deserves to be the future prince in the book.
This is because I have been observing the people's feelings since I was a child.
Qing He next to him looked at the little chubby dun with a surprised expression.
"Steward He also said that the master invited tomorrow is a first-class good hand, and he can do what his hands touch, his shoulders lean, his feet, and his knees.
The little fat dun said, and as he spoke, he threw up his schoolbag.
Lin Yu'an really couldn't understand the crepe's words, but she could only smile and look at the little chubby dun with praise on her face.
Unexpectedly, after returning from the crossing, she became illiterate!
However, she had heard the story of Ku Ding's solution to the cow, so she blindly guessed that the meaning of the passage just now may be that when slaughtering the cow, every action of the operator is rhythmic and very skillful...... bar.
When he said this, Xixi's big eyes lit up.
"Nozomi wants to see it?"
"Hmm!"
Hei Xi nodded vigorously.
Lin Yu'an was very conflicted, the process of killing pigs was very bloody, and children were generally not allowed to see it, but Xixi was so looking forward to it that she didn't know how to refuse.
At this point, she completely forgot about the second meeting with Hei Hei.
Lin Yu'an thought about it and decided to dump the pot again.
"I can't do this thing, I have to ask your brother."
Little Fat Dun immediately looked at Xixi.
My brother entrusted himself to Brother Sheng, so it's the same person to ask.
"I'll ask!"
This time, Xixi didn't wait for Lin Yu'an's answer, and ran out directly.
Lin Yu'an could only look at the door and sigh.
Xiao Chubby Dun looked at Xixi's departing figure with envy, he also wanted such good skills and light skills.
Hei Hei was soon back.
Seeing the expression on her face, Lin Yu'an guessed that the other party should have agreed.
Sure enough, Xixi happily said, "I agreed!" ”
Lin Yu'an complained in her heart, what an unprincipled sister!
Is that kind of occasion suitable for small children?!
Now she can only do her best to save it, she said with a very serious expression: "Okay, but you can only watch the part of the pig in the back, and you can't watch the part of killing the pig and letting the blood at the beginning." ”
The two little ones said in unison: "Why?" ”
Lin Yu'an rubbed his eyebrows and said with a tired expression: "Because it's too bloody, you will be scared, you will have nightmares at night, and you will wet the bed if you have nightmares, which is very embarrassing!" ”
Everyone: "......"
Little Fat Dun moved his lips, but he was pulled by Xi Xi, and he could only answer: "Okay." ”
When she went to bed at night, although Lin Yu'an had been silently reciting soybean oil and soybean oil, she still did not dream of the relevant production methods, but watched a humanistic history documentary about Su Shi.
In addition to introducing the contributions of Sansu in literature, it also "revealed" the secret recipe of their longevity - "Poria porridge".
It is said that Su Shi's younger brother Su Zhe has been sick since he was a child, and he can't do without medicine all year round, and even if he drinks medicine, it takes a long time to recover. Once, after talking with a friend, I learned that practicing qigong and eating poria cocos could cure his illness.
Su Zhe persevered for a year as his friend said, and finally his body really got better.
After that, he also carefully studied various medical works, and finally made "Poria porridge", and shared this recipe with his father Su Xun and brother Su Shi, which is the secret of Sansu's longevity.
