Chapter 889: Mission (6)
I don't feel satisfied with the new chapter, so I'll take a day off today, but to compensate everyone, let's write something interesting. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
What to write, life in the world, but food, clothing, shelter and transportation, but I always feel that food should be put first, after all, it not only brings people a lot of pleasure, but also is a necessary behavior for people to maintain their basic needs.
The first thing that jumped into my mind was probably nothing but meat, and this meat was to be at the top of the roast rank, although this was only for me.
The scope of roast meat is actually quite broad, some roast meat has to be made with more sauce, some with vinegar, some with honey, some with dark soy sauce, and some with pure fried sugar...... Or boiled with other vegetables, fish and meat, with cabbage, eggs, radish, dried tofu, carp/crucian carp, chestnuts, shutters, pineapples...... In all kinds of ways, I believe that many of my readers are more sophisticated and knowledgeable than me.
So, I'm just going to talk about what I'm good at, simple pork belly with dark soy sauce and rock sugar.
To make roast meat, of course, it can only be pork and pork belly, as some food channels say, it must be red and white, fat and thin, and the number of layers varies from three to five. The best place is the abdominal part near the front legs, which is perfectly proportioned, with the lean and juicy meat and the fat meat smooth but not greasy. In addition, it is necessary to look at the pig skin, the current breeding pigs almost do not have the kind of pig skin as thick as the little finger of the pigs when they were young, but if possible, the pig skin should be at least about half a centimeter, only such a fat pig skin, stewed in order to produce a rich and soft soup, there is such a soup wrapped in the entrance of the roast meat, in order to fully feel the plump and silky beauty of the roast meat.
It should be noted that the pork in this position is often hung with some pure lean meat, which is bound to be cut off, if you don't want to, then you should also use it for other purposes, if it is cooked with five flowers, the meat in this position is either as tough as leather, or as astringent as a piece of wood, it is simply a failure in the failure.
Put the meat you get in a boiling pot and boil it, and wait until the water in the pot is cold because of the meat, and after a short time it boils again, there will be white foam turned up, and when the white foam gathers into a pile, and dark gray or brown grease appears on the top, you can transfer it to the sink together with the pot and wash the pork with the same boiling water. Once the pork is washed, the skin is inspected for protruding hairs and plucked out with your fingertips β at this point, the hairs are not only noticeable, but also tender and can be handled without the need for tongs. After the second cleaning, boiling water is also needed, after cleaning, cut the meat into the length of the index finger, put it back in the pot, add boiling water to the top of the (pork), add dark soy sauce, add rock sugar, no green onion and ginger, and no five-spice ingredients.
At this time, you can taste the soup, generally speaking, after cooking, you need to collect the juice, the soup will aggravate the taste a little, the other is completely by personal preference, you can also add a little vinegar if you love sour, but you must not be too much, there is a worry about dominating the guests.
Boil the soup, and then turn the high heat to medium heat, wait until the soup is only half left, turn the medium heat to low heat, wait for the soup to sink under the skin of the pork, turn the low heat to the high heat to collect the juice, at this time do not go away, the eyes should be fixed on the pot, while turning the meat pieces, until each piece of pork is wrapped in a thick color, bright and thick soup, you can turn off the heat and start the pot, at this time, there should be some soup in the pot, you can pour it on the pork, you can also put it in a small bowl for later use, and then it will be said where to use it.

In order not to be too greasy, let's add a stir-fried three vegetarian dishes.
This dish is very simple, the middle of celery, cut into half a middle finger length, half a middle finger thick, water chestnut (water chestnut) or yam peeled, sliced, black fungus soaked, torn, about the size that can be held in one bite. All three things are washed, drained, and then put into boiling water to remove jerkiness, dust, and debris, and become seven or eight ripe.
Heat the oil, add salt, a little sugar, pour in the three vegetarians, stir-fry quickly, wait until the horseshoe or yam is transparent, and then scoop it up and put it on the plate.

Two eggs, a bowl of water (cold), a little salt, stir well, put in a pot with boiling water, cover the bowl with a plate, or a small lid, so as not to get water into the custard, turn off the heat after 10 minutes, do not open the lid, take it out after 5 minutes, and pour the roast gravy water left over before.

And don't forget the rice, a bowl of good rice, the rice cooked from the new rice, still with aromatic and hot steam, translucent, fat and cute, the juice of the roast meat is poured into it, stirring evenly......

Finally, remember to prepare yourself a cup of yogurt tossed with blueberries, or juice it with bayberry, pomegranate, etc., and add soda...... Or vanilla ice cream, topped with cream and mango.

Well, I would like to add two food snippets from this article......
"It's your wine. "Fugu" said, and brought the glass to the newcomer with the tip of her index finger - the newcomer was not stupid enough to say something like "I didn't order this wine", but raised his palm and shook it on the glass, although the person who accepted the solicitation would take a sip or even drink it all in order to show respect to the solicitor, but this guy obviously had a different status, which could be considered that he had accepted GΓΌlen's invitation.
"If you think it's a little hot here," "Fugu" glanced at GΓΌlen, and made it clear that GΓΌlen would not be annoyed or withdraw her intentions because of this, and she certainly would not let go of this good opportunity to earn agency fees, "We have a few empty rooms behind us, maybe you would like to taste your wine there quietly?"
The newcomer nodded. "Fugu" led him into the back room, and then GΓΌlen also walked in, "Fugu" Squeezing out of the narrow corridor, she not only picked up the wine glasses of GΓΌlen and the newcomers and put them on a huge tray, but also added sea salt baked green-bellied hermit crab and peacock tail snail in sauce, fried flying fish with butter, and dozens of live oysters the size of an adult's palm, the shell of this oyster is blue-black with silver dots, longer than ordinary oysters, and smells of seawater and cucumbers, which is said to be the most delicious of the twenty types of oysters in the Longhuo Islands, "pufferfish" After thinking about it, she added a large bowl of beetroot cream soup to these, and if there was soup, how could there be no bread, so she carefully layered a few pieces of golden and shiny honey bread on the crumbling top of the hill.
"Hey, pufferfish!" cried out a skinny thief, "why don't you add a little fried pork? β
"Fugu" spat at him with a dull yellow spit, and the people in the tavern laughed - there is an unwritten rule in each tavern, among which is that the tavern owner, who acts as an intermediary, does not directly ask the hired and hired to give him a tinkling gold coin, but takes advantage of the wine, the rent of the room, and the opportunity to provide meals for payment, except for the "Fugu" One of them is the more greedy, in Sharp Jaws, when the dark-haired spellcaster needs a boat, the blunt tavern owner who acts as an intermediary only charges two glasses of ouzo, and the "pufferfish" provides not only a room, but also a dish that two people can't finish - if the hiree, or the hirer, is angry about it, they have the right to stuff the food into the tavern's master's stomach, and there are many blind ones who are stripped to death in this way.
"Fugu" really didn't care about this, she believed in her stomach and her eyesight, neither of them was the kind of person who would skimp on a few gold coins, she easily walked out of the bar with such a large plate of food with such an astonishing amount of food at an equally astonishing price, her slave tried to help but she kicked him away, and when she passed the skinny thief who took the lead in the heckling, she deliberately stomped heavily on his footβ The poor fellow could have dodged, but there was apparently a knife pointed at him behind him, and he wisely chose between losing his life and breaking his foot.
"Fugu" left the room as soon as he delivered the food, and the newcomer unabashedly occupied the only chair in the room, while GΓΌlen stood in the corner of the room with his arms crossed, his face showing no joy or anger.
GΓΌlen looked away from the man (or seemed so) and looked at the room instead, which was in fact just a disguise, and as a regular he was certainly offering more than just a glass of wine, this room was the one he knew best, and he could get the most convenience from whatever he wanted to do.
Sea-salt baked hermit crab is the most conspicuous of all foods, but also the most smelly one, this cooking method is very simple, the selected sea salt is placed in an iron pot to heat, and then the whole hermit crab is buried in it, baked until it can smell the fragrance, the slave in charge of this work also diligently knocked open for them the hermit crab is the size of an adult man's forearm, the dark red carapace stained with salt cracks, revealing a sweet and snow-white, trace of crab meat, which looks and smells appetizing, and oysters, because it has the ability to promote men**The function of seeking high upswing has always been a good product in short supply, the butter-fried flying fish has not removed its wings, and the fish bodies on both sides are opened, stacked like small birds - in order to increase the amount and make people can pinch them with their fingers to eat, they taste burnt and crispy, and if they can be served with a little chili sauce, they are no worse than salt-baked crabs.
The newcomer leisurely lifted the spoon and spun around the cream soup, and the green leaves of the plant emerged from it, a precious fresh spice crop, and it seemed that the "pufferfish" had made up his mind to knock it out.
Mame watched Glenn leave, and then the elf Kerry and Berdwin walked somewhere away from the water, and the "wide dolphin" brought a metal utensil the size of two palms of an adult male when folded, and Kerry had opened it layer by layer, turning it into a knee-high grill about three feet long and wide.
"The work of a dwarf?" said Leona, carrying a bag of fat oysters. The lodge is located in a circular reef surrounded by vibrant, colorful living corals, caves of all sizes, and strange shapes, where all kinds of creatures you can think of and you can't imagine can find a place here, Leona has never seen the sea before, nor has she seen such abundance of wealth, and when she came here, she was completely bewildered by the expanse of turquoise, and sometimes her hair could be wet all day.
Mei Mi's gaze swept over the princess's hair, since leaving Doling, the princess cut her knee-length hair short to the shoulders, both to make it easier to clean up and to reduce the burden, after arriving in the hot Dragonfire Islands, she even shortened her hair to the point of being like a boy with the help of the spellcaster, which is a rare thing on this continent, humans are always keen to keep their hair, even adventurers, women will braid their hair instead of cutting it at will, some aristocratic women will be depressed all day long if they lose their long hair because of an accidentThe hair of the elves will even be twisted as a bowstring to defend themselves and their people, and as a token of dedication to their only companion, but it must be said that after cutting off her long hair, Leona is even more heroic and glorious, and her facial features, which were originally as deep as a man, are like a jewel that has lost its golden pedestal. As she walked down the street in her leggings, boots, and flaming swords with strange patterns on her shoulders, every now and then, in addition to the men, even the women would puss their lips at her, wink, and wave their handkerchiefs.
- Mei Mi probably didn't know that there was a hairstyle called Hepburn Head in another plane.
"Yes. Carey lifted the grill a little and let Leona stroke an inconspicuous depression, "The gnomes would leave their names on their creations. β
"Dwarves too. β
"Dwarves will stay in the most conspicuous places," said Kerribben, "like the surface of a shield, or the grip of a sword, or the nameplate of chain mail, but gnomes will only remain in an inconspicuous place, sometimes not in words, but in place of their own names." β
Leona touched it, it was a hammer, and her eyes became hesitant: "Gnomes also use hammers to represent themselves?"
Kerry also looked a little taken aback: "No, the only gnome symbols I've seen are gears, bearings, or rulers, and the dwarves don't have a good relationship with the dwarves, and they don't use the common symbols of the dwarves to represent themselves." β
But after flipping over the grill, they did see a hammer symbol left on the inside of the grill.
"Could this be the work of the dwarves?" asked Leona.
"Dwarves don't make utensils for ordinary people," said the elves, "and what comes from the hands of the dwarves is not weapons, shields, or armor, and they occasionally make jewelry, but those jewels are usually magical." β
"Well," the princess turned the grill over, "this may be a dwarf who wants to be a dwarf." β
The elf smiled and shook his head, it was literally saying that a dwarf wanted to be an elf.
"If we ask the wandering merchant," said Leona, "will she tell us where the gnome who built this shelf lives?"
"I'm afraid not," Kerribben said, "The gnomes are basically under the control of the lords, and the few who are out of the world are extremely vigilant, they don't make this kind of ordinary utensils, this is in batches," his fingers slid across the iron frame, and sure enough, he touched a few small dots, which the gnomes used to represent numbers.
"I don't care what happens to the gnomes," said Berdwin, "but I'm really hungry already." β
Leona smiled, she walked up to Baldwin, stood on tiptoe and kissed him lightly in the ear, "You can eat some oysters first, honey." She said the sun was plunging into the sea and left a scarlet scar on her bulging cheekbones.
It was Berdwin who was embarrassed, especially after he was shaved clean, his expression was not easily hidden, "I'll open it." He said, pulling out the dagger from his side.
Oysters are also a delicious dish in the Otherworldly Soul Plane, but he is not used to eating them raw, so he puts them on the grill - the dwarf's folding grill is very delicate, the grill surface is not strip-like but grid-shaped, the remaining sea water in the oyster's black shell quickly boils, the black-haired spellcaster quickly stuffs some crushed garlic into it, pours a little winter wine, the oyster meat squeaks in the shell, and the rich aroma suddenly steals everyone's attention.
Leona tasted a raw oyster and another grilled oyster, and somewhat regretted that she had brought too few oysters, and Baldwin took a few.
"Keep it for GΓΌlen," he said in a playful tone that any man would understand, "and he's got a wonderful date tonight." He took another one to Cremar: "Maybe I'll spend the night with you tonight." β
The oysters in Meimi's mouth instantly became like chewing wax, and she had given the thief a small problem before, but she really didn't expect him to tell Berdwin directly, and Baldwin ...... Make nothing of.
"Where's the crab?" asked Cremar, who had a little bit of ...... Embarrassing, after all, his plane, his country is always secretive about this kind of thing, if it's all men, it's okay, but there are also Mei Mi and Leona here.
"Leave him some crab stew with cream. The elf said.
