Chapter 230: Tempeh Dace Luncheon Meat
Xu Jinfei looked at her expectant big eyes, and faintly felt a little funny in his heart, he was silent for a while, nodded and said, "You get this thing out first, let us taste how it tastes." β
That's the play! Wang Shishi said a sentence last night, but it was right, they were all picking up money along the way! If this business of supplying luncheon meat and canned fish is completed, the country's army is so large, and there are many county officials in the state capital, and those who go out in the field can be equipped with this thing as standard.
Isn't she going to get rich? This business is even more lucrative than a food festival!
The wishful thinking in Hua Manxi's heart crackled, but Wang Shishi was dumbfounded, and exclaimed: "Manxi, is there anything else you won't do?" β
Hua Manxi pursed her lips and smiled, already thinking about how to develop this canned food in her head.
Their group of people ate happily, but Lord Zhao and a few people over there were bitterly gnawing on dry food, gnawing on dry food, and the hard cakes were forgotten, but the worst thing was that Huamanxi was eating and roasting at the same time, and the aroma of sausage and bacon drifted over with the wind, not to mention them, even the fish in the reservoir were all hungry.
Hua Manxi also noticed it, took a few cakes and sandwiched the meat and sheets, then wrapped them in a leaf and handed them to Danyun: "Danyun, you can send them some food." β
Dan Yunyan obeyed, took the cake, handed it to the housekeeper, and said in a deep voice: "Our girl asked you to send it over." β
Those few people were so hungry that the five visceral temples protested, and when they saw the few cakes in Danyun's hand, they all swallowed a mouthful of saliva in unison.
Although they were cheated last night, bought a carriage, and spent 10,000 taels, but they couldn't beat the fragrance of the cake.
Now, this cake is placed in front of him, although he wants to be ruthless and refuses them, but his body is very honest, and the housekeeper has already taken it with both hands, and said to the light cloud: "Thank you girl." β
Danyun didn't make a sound, just nodded, and turned to leave.
The housekeeper hurriedly handed the cake in his hand to Lord Zhao, and took the opportunity to give his adult a step down: "My lord, eat it, in this wilderness, there is no condition to make good food, and it is better to eat hot than cold." β
Lord Zhao couldn't hold back his saliva for a long time, but he pretended to be embarrassed on his face, and said in a low voice: "I don't know if this thing is clean or not." β
The housekeeper persuaded again: "They know your identity, don't dare to do it rashly, and besides, they cheated us a sum of money last night, maybe it was a show of goodwill, they are all from the countryside and Xiaoye, and their eyelids are shallow." β
The housekeeper said these two words comfortably Lord Zhao, and then he reached out and took a cake, and said to the housekeeper: "You can eat too, hurry up when you are full, find a post station, and have a good meal." β
The butler couldn't ask for it, so he quickly gave the bread in his hand to a few other people.
This amount is obviously calculated, just one per person.
Master Zhao brought the cake to his lips, took a bite, and a rich salty fragrance suddenly rushed to the tip of his tongue.
This kind of meat is bacon, and most people will make some meat that they can't eat during the New Year, but he has never eaten such delicious bacon, fat and thin, both chewy, and without losing the taste of springy teeth, look down, the meat that was half bitten by him, crystal clear, obviously the meat is red, but glowing with oily white light, such a good bacon, he is also the first time to see, even if it is the high-quality bacon used by His Majesty to feast the ministers, from the imperial dining room, it is not as good as a country girl's craftsmanship!
The surprise of this bacon sausage has not been suppressed, and Lord Zhao tasted the freshest wild duck eggs in the mountains and wilderness, Hua Manxi only used a little bacon fried oil and a handful of salted fried poached eggs.
Don't say anything on the side, just one word, fresh! Completely different from the bells and whistles in Kyoto, although this egg is not made with any other seasonings, not even ginger beans, it does not smell fishy at all.
After a few bites, the meat and eggs were all eaten, and the mouth was a little greasy, but there was still a surprise hidden underneath, which was sour, spicy and refreshing kimchi.
After eating a cake, Lord Zhao felt that he had only tasted a bite, and he was still unsatisfied, however, unfortunately, these cakes were all distributed to his subordinates to eat, and he didn't have them!
He faintly regretted it in his heart, so he could only pretend to be calm and took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth, and said unhappily: "You move faster, you still have to walk a long way to get to the post station." β
Since the adults have spoken, the housekeeper naturally didn't dare to rub it any longer, so he finished the cake in his hand, drank two more sips of water, and urged: "It's time to go, hurry up and go." β
Hua Manxi and his party got up earlier than Lord Zhao's side, but there were many people and things on their side, especially the specialties of Shishan County in that carriage, which were all used to repay Xu Jinfei's fox skin favor, leaving only a little for Chen Xiuli, and the flying eagles had to help carry them into the car, so they were a little slower.
Lord Zhao took the lead here, the butler rode in a carriage with him, the cook and coachman were outside, and the other guards were all on horseback.
The housekeeper has been with Lord Zhao for many years, and he naturally understands his thoughts, and before Lord Zhao speaks, he took the initiative to say: "My lord, the little one tasted the cured meat made by the girl just now is very good, the Queen Mother likes lap-mei the most, why don't we buy some and dedicate it to the Queen Mother?" β
This is exactly what Zhao Yi thought in his heart, he frowned and said: "I don't know if people are willing to sell it, I look at this posture, but it looks like sending relatives." Besides, the carriage and their lion opened their mouths, and they didn't know about itβ"
The housekeeper said: "The carriage is also a strange commodity, so I dare to open my mouth like this, just cured meat, I think they won't." Wouldn't it be better if it was to send relatives, when it came to Kyoto, it was the territory of adults, just check who their relatives were, and the adults hinted a little, and he obediently sent them to the door himself, and saved money. β
Zhao Yi thought that this was indeed the case, closed his eyes and closed his eyes, and said, "Then wait until you go back to Kyoto, you can ask people to find out what relatives these two little girls have in Kyoto." β
"Yes, sir." The butler answered.
Besides, Hua Manxi, naturally I didn't know that someone had the idea of their own bacon, she and Wang Shishi chatted in the car for a while about the way to make money with canned food, and Wang Shishi was enthusiastic, seeing that there were a lot of copper coins and silver tickets that had grown their feet, and took the initiative to run to her.
She was overjoyed and said: "I just said last night that I would buy a yard and open a shop, isn't this ready-made?" If we do this, we will have to have a big yard to do it. Luckily, I brought the money. β
The two little girls chattered about entering Beijing, but they fell into the ears of Xu Jinfei, who was sitting in the carriage next to them, word for word.
As he listened, the corners of his lips couldn't help but hook slightly.
His daughter-in-law is really cute, he gave all the tokens of Qianzhuang to Hua Manxi, I don't know if she has added much to the family.
I'm looking forward to it.
This trip will be until it will be dark, and there will be a post station.
When I arrived at the post station, the most important thing was to cook, everyone only ate one meal in the morning, and the road was to eat dry food and drink water, Hua Manxi and Wang Shishi were okay, after all, they brought a lot of snacks and snacks, that is, they ate jerky, and they ate better than them.
Wang Shishi went to put her luggage, Hua Manxi asked the post station for the kitchen and ingredients, and began to get busy.
She then made dace with tempeh and luncheon meat for them to taste, and this dace with tempeh was the best to eat, so Hua Manxi steamed a large pot of rice before starting to cook.
First of all, kill the dace well, the dace meat is delicious and smooth, tender, but prickly, and the spines are very small, if it is a common practice, it is not easy to pick the thorns, so if you want to fry the dace in the oil pan, in this way, the spines inside are all crispy, you can chew and swallow it, and it will not sting people.
After frying the dace, heat the oil, then add ginger slices, garlic cloves, dried tempeh and stir-fry until fragrant, then add cooking wine, soy sauce, sugar and salt, a little water, and simmer the tempeh to taste. It should be noted here that if you are making canned food, you should have an appropriate amount of salt here to ensure the saltiness of the fish, and of course, if you like spicy food, you can also put some chili peppers.
Then, put the fried dace into the pot, stir-fry to make the fish flavorful, and simmer slowly over low heat to make the bones more soft.
If you want to make canned food, let it cool, put it in the can and seal it, and put it in a pot with water and high temperature for a while before you can cool it for storage.
After making this dace with tempeh, it's time to make luncheon meat.
Hua Manxi took out the pork belly, this kind of pork belly should be lean, wash the meat first, then cut it into small pieces, and then chop it into meat sauce.
This kind of work of chopping meat has always been done by light clouds, he has good knife skills, great strength, and chopping meat is fast and good.
After the meat is minced, Huamanxi adds soy sauce, sugar, five or two parts, red yeast powder, ginger juice, sesame oil, white pepper, consume oil, stir well, and let the meat sauce fully absorb.
After marinating for a while, add the egg whites, stir and add the chestnut flour, add some more egg whites, then add some flour, a little water, and stir the meat sauce until it is sticky.
Then, put the minced meat in a bowl and steam it, then take it out and slice it.
If it is canned, the meat is sealed in the can, and then sterilized at high temperature and high pressure, and then eaten directly next time.
But now Hua Manxi is not making canned food first, but making it to eat, so she will cut the meat slices, heat the oil again, fry them on low heat, and fry them until they are golden brown on both sides, then take them out of the pot and fry some vegetables.
There are cold eggplant and fried wheat vegetables.
The vegetables are fried with the leftover tempeh from the time when making dace just now, and the eggplant is steamed directly in the pot, then torn into small strips, and then put the green and red peppers, garlic, soy sauce and other cold salads that are slightly charred and crushed.
