Chapter 19 The sausage and bacon are made
This voice is Hanakomatsu.
If you want to say that this pig is killed, the only happy person in the whole family is Hua Xiaosong! After all, there is meat to eat!
"It's boiled pork head meat, fragrant, right?" Hua Manxi took out the steaming pig's head meat in the pot, put it on the board, and immediately cut a small piece and gave it to Hua Xiaosong, "Have you tasted enough?" ”
The aroma of boiling is big, and if it is boiled, it can spread throughout the courtyard, Hua Xiaosong has long been hooked by this fragrance, and at this time a piece of hot meat was put into his mouth, and he swallowed it before he had time to chew it carefully, he licked his lips and grinned: "Sister, I haven't tasted it yet, let's have another piece!" ”
"You are really Zhu Bajie eating ginseng fruit!" Hua Manxi smiled and had to cut another piece for him.
"Fragrant, really fragrant, I've never eaten such fragrant meat, it's even more fragrant than the snail you fried last time!" Hua Xiaosong praised again and again, that look, I really want to swallow my tongue.
"Okay, you've eaten meat, but if you want to help my cousin with her work, hurry up and go to the vegetable field and help me pick a few cucumbers." Hua Manxi said with a smile.
Although the boiled meat is delicious, it will get tired if you eat too much, and it is most suitable with a light cucumber.
Clean the cucumber, pat it flat with the back of a knife, pat it into small pieces, add salt, a little vinegar, a little peppercorns, a little soy sauce, a little vegetable oil,
Mix the minced garlic and chopped green onion well, and a refreshing and delicious cucumber is ready.
The cold pig's head meat and pig's ears were cut into thin slices by Huamanxi, and a large pot was placed, and the pig's skull stewed radish soup was also soft and rotten, just ready to eat.
"This soup is delicious, it's so sweet, even this radish is sweet, soft and rotten, I hated eating radish the most, and I couldn't help but eat a few pieces!" Uncle Liu's gluttony had already come up, and he drank a few mouthfuls of soup and ate a few pieces of radish, and sure enough, he was not disappointed!
"How is this meat made? How do you make it so delicious? Not fatty at all! Another villager ate the pig's head and was also full of praise!
"Boss Hua, your niece is really a good craft, this raw cucumber is different from others!"
At this meal, several villagers were hearty, and their stomachs were round and they went back, and they discussed on the way, thinking that Uncle Li was simply blinded by lard if he didn't accept Hua Manxi as a cook!
Uncle Hua has more than three taels of silver in hand, and there is hope for these five taels of silver, but Uncle Hua and his aunt's brows are still tightly wrinkled.
"Manxi, you see that there is still so much pork left that can't be sold, what should I do? Why don't you divide some and get out? Your second aunt's place, and Komatsu's grandfather's side—" Uncle Hua sighed.
"So much pork? Are they all divided? Hua Manxi was a little surprised, now that the Hua family is in this situation, it is not easy to eat a meal of meat!
"What else would you do? It's only August now, and it's not snowing, and the meat can't be put away, and it stinks in two days, so it can't be ruined like this. The eldest aunt also sighed, "Although your second aunt is not very good-hearted, she is also your aunt after all, and the two children are also pitiful." ”
Is she not just bad-hearted? If she hadn't told Widow Wang that her uncle was going to sell pigs to pay off debts, how could Wang Dazhuang come to steal pigs? How could the widow beat this pig to death? And give her meat? Did the meat go to her, and not into the king's widow's hand?
Hua Manxi can't swallow this breath!
"I don't send it! Not a pound of meat will be sent! Hua Manxi looked at the remaining dozens of catties of pork, and said to Uncle Hua, "Let's keep this meat and eat it slowly, I have a way to save it, uncle, you go buy some coarse salt and come back, aunt, let's separate the pork first." ”
Hua Manxi plans to make pork into bacon and sausages.
Uncle Hua and Uncle Hua felt that after Manxi was dismissed this time, her whole person had changed a lot, and she had a big idea! As the saying goes, children and daughters are Xiao Daddy, Manxi Niang is originally a big idea!
The eldest aunt cleaned the pig's small intestine according to the method that Hua Manxi said, Hua Manxi cut some pork belly, three points lean, seven points fat, the best meat filling for sausage is this ratio, if there is too much fat, the sausage will be too greasy, if there is too much lean meat, the sausage will taste very chai.
Peel the pork belly, clean it, drain the water and chop it, add salt, pepper, dried chili, cinnamon, bay leaves, also chop and put it into the filling, after the filling is stirred evenly, Huamanxi puts in some white sugar and liquor, sugar can play a role in freshness, and liquor can play a role in sterilization.
These fillings should be marinated in a ventilated place for a night, so that the filling can fully absorb the flavor, and the sausage will be delicious, tomorrow as long as the filling is poured into the small intestine, and then evenly pierce the small hole in the casing, and hang the sausage in a ventilated place to dry, you can save it, and eat it just right when you come to the New Year.
Because there are not many pigs in the small intestines, the eldest aunt washed the pig's small intestines and asked: "Manxi, I have washed all the small intestines, can I use the large intestines?" It's just that the taste of this large intestine is very strong—"
"You don't need a large intestine, this large intestine is also cleaned, and we will eat it tomorrow." Hua Manxi just marinated the filling, and said to the eldest aunt, "The large intestine is rubbed with flour, and it will be clean when washed, and then put it in the pot where I boiled the pig's head meat today, boil the water, and cut it tomorrow to eat." ”
"Okay, I'll wash it." The eldest aunt felt that this niece suddenly seemed to be a different person, and things were done in an orderly manner, not in a hurry, and compared with the sister-in-law, she was not inferior at all.
Uncle Hua happened to buy salt at this time, Hua Manxi asked Hua Xiaosong to help light the fire, she added salt to peppercorns and put them in the pot to fry, stir-frying a choking smell.
When she cut the pork belly just now, she had already cut out the pork belly for bacon, all cut into strips of meat about 30 cm long and about five centimeters wide, and when the pepper and salt were cooled, she used these salts to rub the meat repeatedly, and after rubbing, the meat strips were barcoded and put into a large porcelain basin that was washed and wiped with a towel, the skin was down, the meat was up, and the layers were stacked, and the top layer was pressed with a heavy ceramic lid.
The marinated bacon should be turned every day until it has been marinated for four or five days, then it can be skewered and stored in a cool place for ventilation.
Pig four legs, in addition to the one pork leg bought by Li Zheng's family, there are three pork legs left, and Hua Manxi made these three pork legs into smoked ham.
After dozens of catties of pork were done like this, there were still some pork ribs and fragments of lean meat left, Hua Manxi tossed for such a day, tired and paralyzed hands and feet, and really had no strength, so he could only put it there first, and hurriedly took a bath and fell asleep. 、
What she didn't know, however, was that no sooner had she fallen asleep than a man in a nightwalk jumped out of her room through the window.
The man in black did not light the lamp, only held a night pearl in his hand, and sat down on the side of her bed with skillful movements.
He approached Hua Manxi, and saw that her face was indeed covered with the black ointment.
The visitor looked away with a little disgust, took out a handkerchief from his bosom, dipped it in the water from the kettle on the table, and wiped the black ointment off her face, revealing the faintly red scar on her face.
It's really ugly.
The man in black secretly gasped, took out a box of fragrant ointment from his arms, and carefully wiped it for her.
This ointment is a palace offering, it is slightly cool to apply, but it is absorbed very quickly, but for a moment, it is impossible to see that the ointment has been applied, as long as it is applied for seven days, it can eliminate the scar.
He withdrew the ointment, took out the money bag from his arms, and wanted to put the money bag on her pillow, but after a slight groan, he silently withdrew the money bag and put it into his arms.
This dead girl, he didn't give her money, but wanted to see how capable she was, and dared to dislike him as a dignified son!
He looked around and saw that she was sleeping soundly, and he couldn't help but feel amused again, shook his head, and jumped out of the window again.
Xu Shizi just jumped on the courtyard wall, his stomach suddenly gurgled, he frowned, cursed imperceptibly, jumped back again, found the stove room with ease, and turned over the cabinets.
However, in the end, he only found a large section of pig's intestine in a soup pot!
Xu Shizi frowned in disgust again!
He is a dignified prince, although he has tried to drink blood when he was fighting outside, but he really hasn't eaten this thing that smells of!
What's the difference between this and eating?!
Shi Ziye's stomach rumbled twice, and he repeatedly looked at the pig's intestine in the pot twice, and finally covered the pot with great disgust.
A dignified seven-foot man, he can't eat if he starves to death! It seems that this flower family is really poor!
No, although this girl looks a little cold, she is also her own savior, although he can't reveal his identity for the time being, but he still has to help her-
Xu Shizi muttered to himself, jumped on the wall skillfully, and left the courtyard of the Hua family.
Hua Manxi was really busy all day yesterday, and he slept very deeply this night, and when he woke up, his head was still a little heavy.
It's just that the scars on the face don't seem to hurt anymore! She reached out and touched her face, only to feel that the raised scar was much smoother!
Hey, where's the ointment on her face? The ointment was sticky and greasy, it couldn't have been so smooth—
Hua Manxi wanted to find a mirror to take a look at what kind of dignity he was now, but this Hua family was so poor that he really didn't even have a bronze mirror-
She sighed, still thinking about her sausages and bacon, stretched her waist and got up from the bed, but saw a very good handkerchief shake off the sheets.
But the veil was full of slimy ointment—
Is this - is it my own sleepwalking erased away? But it's not hers! The Hua family is so poor that they can't afford to use a veil of such material.
Hua Manxi was full of suspicions, took the handkerchief and walked to the well, washed it carefully, the handkerchief was soft, and there was only a tuft of green bamboo embroidered on it, which looked very luxurious.
She hung the handkerchief on the dry pyre, and then looked down at her face in the well water—
