Chapter 170: Chicken stewed with centella asiatica
Lin Vanilla was stunned for a moment, looked back, and saw Lin Xiaoshan pouting a small mouth, showing his cuteness.
All of a sudden, she was funny and angry, this little guy has learned to be coquettish.
"Okay, okay, okay, second aunt will give you Sheng." Ruan Shi smiled, took the soup spoon again, and served a bowl to Lin Xiaoshan.
Lin Vanilla saw Lin Xiaoshan laughing happily, and couldn't help but say to Ruan: "Second uncle, don't always take care of us, you should be hungry too, hurry up and move your chopsticks." ”
"Humph!" Li Changshuo's cold snort came from his ears, and Ruan glanced at Li Changshuo dissatisfied, Li Changshuo simply hugged the bowl and sat on the threshold.
Lin Xiangxiang didn't bother to take care of Li Changshuo, lowered his head, took a sip of soup, and suddenly raised his head in surprise and looked towards Ruan.
"Second aunt, this chicken soup is not only delicious, but also not greasy, and when you eat it, you feel a fragrance in your mouth, which is really good." Lin Vanilla was surprised, and glanced at the coarse porcelain basin again.
I saw that an unknown thing was clearly added to the porcelain basin, like herbs, but because it was boiled to death, I couldn't see what it looked like.
"That's Lei Gonggen, that is, centella asiatica, I see that rich people often use it to stew chicken soup, and I can do the same, but it tastes really good." Ruan Shi also smiled from ear to ear.
Centella asiatica?
After reading the Compendium of Materia Medica, coupled with the forest herbs who are familiar with rural life, there is naturally no reason not to know.
Centella asiatica resembles a horseshoe, with round leaves with a cleft and a single leaf growing from a rhizome, which is mostly found on the edge of ditches and on marshland.
Of course, it is not just an ordinary weed, it is also a herb, after drying, it can be made of herbal tea, and it can also clear heat and dampness when drunk regularly, but because it grows a large piece, the vitality is too strong, which also leads to it is not valuable.
"It's delicious, it's delicious." Lin Vanilla narrowed her eyes and filled herself another half bowl.
Ruan Shi was also happy to see that she liked it, and said again: "Vanilla, you eat a little more, these days, you have lost weight." ”
Between the words, he made a gesture to come over and give it to her.
Lin Xiangxiang hurriedly waved his hand: "Enough, enough, second aunt, I still have to eat, although this soup is delicious, it is not good to drink too much." ”
"You kid, what's wrong, let Brother Changshuo think about it after eating." Nguyen smiled.
Lin Xiangxiang laughed twice, thinking in her heart, she couldn't say this, but she was afraid that Li Changshuo would have a lot of bad words waiting for her behind.
What's more, if she really wants to eat chicken, she will have the money to buy it.
Get up, Lin Herb went out, after the fungus was washed, I picked a few peppers in the yard, when I came to this, the peppers had just grown, and they were still very tender, and they should not be spicy, and Lin Herbs was just to add a flavor.
Cut the fungus in half, cut the pepper into small particles, add a little salt to the herbs to adjust the seasoning, and then walked to the house with the cold fungus.
"Second aunt, you can also try this." Lin Vanilla sandwiched a small piece of fungus for Ruan's family, and did not forget to urge Lin Xiaoshan to eat.
At this moment, Li Changshuo stretched out his chopsticks and took out the fungus: "You can really eat anything?" This thing has been growing on the persimmon tree for so long, why didn't I see the Lin family come to pick it, what happened to the problem. ”
Lin Xiangxiang looked at Li Changshuo, and her slender willow eyebrows couldn't help but raise high, she really didn't understand what he meant.
If it was just because she went to catch grasshoppers last night, he was so angry, it didn't look like it.
"Changshuo!" Ruan Shi roared sharply, a trace of chagrin flashed on Li Changshuo's face, and he didn't seem to expect that he would have such a big reaction, so he finally stuffed the fungus into his mouth and whispered: "My mother is not feeling well, I will eat it for her." ”
When he had said this, he went outside.
"Vanilla, don't be angry with him, he's that kind of character." Ruan reached out and took Lin Vanilla's hand and patted it gently.
Although Lin Vanilla felt that Li Changshuo was unusually excessive today, but the deity had done too much evil in the past, she could also understand Li Changshuo's hostility, so she shook her head.
"It's not in the way, second aunt, let's eat."
Ruan Shi was very guilty, looked at Lin Vanilla, and then looked outside, but finally didn't say more.
After eating, Lin Herb began to rub the ice powder seeds, poked the ice powder seeds in a large porcelain pot, and dried all the remaining ice powder seeds to prevent the weather from being humid and the ice powder seeds from becoming moldy.
Lin Xiaoshan saw that Lin Vanilla had finally finished these preparations, and couldn't help asking, "Sister, what did you say about sweetening the plums?" ”
Lin Vanilla was busy this afternoon, but now that she is finally done, she really didn't expect the plum to come up.
After a pause, she suddenly came back to her senses and hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Sister will make it for you now, but it will take a few days to eat." ”
A hint of loss flashed in Lin Xiaoshan's eyes, but he soon saw him encouraged: "Okay, Sister, I'll bring you plums." ”
Lin Vanilla shook his head, laughed for a while, took the plums, washed the plums one by one, and put them aside to cool down, then took out the white sugar, and carefully rubbed it until the whole plum was stained with white sugar.
Just when Lin Xiaoshan was confused, Lin Vanilla poured out the kneaded plums again, washed them and dehydrated them, took a clean small stone, and broke the washed green plums one by one.
"Sister, if you break it, will it become sweet?" Lin Xiaoshan opened a pair of ignorant eyes and looked at Lin Vanilla in confusion, Lin Vanilla smiled: "You heat the pot and pour a little water into the pot, Sister has to boil sugar water, this green plum has to be soaked in sugar water to become sweet." ”
"Okay." Although Lin Xiaoshan was confused, he felt that this sweet plum was very complicated, but what his sister asked him to do, he would do it, and after all, what his sister said, there would be no mistake.
On the second day, Lin Vanilla went to the Rifle Restaurant with ice powder and grasshoppers, and the back kitchen saw that she also sent the grasshoppers, so she didn't dare to accept them, so she hurriedly asked people to find Feng Qiandan.
Feng Qiandan didn't expect this grasshopper to be able to eat it, and said in disbelief: "Miss Lin, this thing was sent to eat?" ”
Lin Vanilla nodded very affirmatively: "This is natural, with high oil temperature, crispy and delicious, just right to drink." ”
The back kitchen on the side couldn't help but say: "Don't dare to do this, can you eat this thing, what if there is a problem with eating, not to mention, someone has to eat it." ”
"If Shopkeeper Feng doesn't accept it, then forget it." Lin Vanilla can also understand, not to mention the ancient people, even if the food source of people is abundant now, there are many people who dare not eat this thing.
