"Brother Li......" Lin Xiaozhu panted and ran to the big kitchen.

Li Weizhu was busy in the kitchen with Zhao Hu, and Lin Xiaozhu, who was sweating profusely, showed a surprised look on his face: "What's wrong?" ”

"The red yeast rice you dried today, bring it to me to see." Lin Xiaozhu wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Red yeast rice?" Li Weizhu frowned, looked at Lin Xiaozhu, and became more and more puzzled. However, seeing that Lin Xiaozhu didn't want to explain, he didn't ask much, and pointed to the outside of the courtyard: "Na, it was sundried in the morning, and it's still there." See for yourself. ”

Lin Xiaozhu didn't go out, but took two steps closer and showed a flattering smile: "Can I order it?" ”

Zhao Hu originally saw the eager appearance of Lin Xiaozhu, who was never startled, and thought that something big had happened. At this time, he learned that as long as the red yeast rice, he was relieved and quipped: "Lin Xiaozhu, if you wag your tail again, your brother Li may be soft-hearted and will give you all the red yeast rice." ”

"You're the dog!" Lin Xiaozhu raised his eyebrows and glared at Zhao Hu. Then they all laughed.

Li Weizhu didn't smile, looked out of the door and muttered for a while, then said, "You can take some." Anyway, if you put it here, it's moldy. ”

After speaking, he went out to the sun, put the jar back, filled a bowl with a bowl for Lin Xiaozhu, and asked, "Is it enough?" ”

"Enough is enough." Lin Xiaozhu nodded again and again, his eyes looking at the purple-red rice, full of anticipation.

Just now, when talking about braised pork being "fat but not greasy", she finally remembered a story she had seen in her previous life somewhere.

In 1253, the Yuan army captured Yunnan and moved the administrative center from Dali to Kunming. Since then, "Kunming" has officially served as the political, economic and cultural center of the province. During the reign of the Yuan Dynasty, after the initial military plunder and suppression of the clans, it was gradually replaced by a policy of fixed taxation and improvement of ethnic relations, and many inland merchants and craftsmen also entered Kunming, forming a new generation of wealthy merchants in Kunming.

Among these wealthy businessmen, there is a large family surnamed Li, and their family has an inn, and the signature dish is braised pork. Legend has it that the Li family braised pork. The color is attractive, the taste is excellent, and it is oily but not greasy. The most amazing thing is that their family members are all healthy and slim, and there is no sign of obesity. People who often see their family members eating braised pork also find that their family's braised pork will not gain weight no matter how much they eat. If you eat homemade, you will feel greasy and puzzled.

It wasn't until many years later that the secret of the Li family's braised pork was revealed. The color is attractive, fat but not greasy. I often eat it without fat, just because the red pigment of the Li family's braised pork is red yeast rice.

This is a story she has inadvertently seen. After reading it at that time, I was still curious about red yeast rice, so I searched for it on Baidu, and only then did I know that this red yeast rice is made of indica, japonica rice, glutinous rice and other rice as raw materials, and fermented with monascus mold. It is both a food product and a natural red pigment; It is also a drug, which has a very powerful cholesterol-lowering, hypolipidemic and hypoglycemic effects, and can effectively treat cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as coronary heart disease and stroke, as well as diabetes, kidney disease, fatty liver and other diseases.

But after watching it at the time. Since no one in the family had these symptoms, she forgot about them. If it weren't for Li Weizhu's drying of this red yeast rice, Xia Shan would have let her taste the braised pork again. She didn't even think about it.

It seems that there is a destiny in the dark! This red yeast rice. It's just a recipe for that nobleman.

After taking the bowl of red yeast rice, Lin Xiaozhu found a stone scoop, pounded the rice into powder, and then went to Steward Qin to get some pork belly, and began to practice braised pork made of red yeast rice.

Although rich people don't eat pork much, as a civilian food for the public, braised pork is still very marketable, so Ma Jiaoxi specially taught this dish.

Cut the pork into pieces after boiling water, put ginger and fry it in oil in a pot until it changes color, then add cooking wine, soy sauce, rock sugar and other seasonings, pour water to boil, change to simmer for half an hour, then put red yeast powder, and finally collect the thick juice.

Xia Shan is in a group with Lin Xiaozhu, what his level is, Lin Xiaozhu knows best. Wu Pingqiang made braised pork before, and Lin Xiaozhu also tasted it. The skills of these two people in making braised pork are no worse than her. Compared with the two of them, the braised pork with red yeast rice is more colorful, and most importantly, it is not greasy at all. But aside from this advantage, the taste is not much stronger than what they do.

Lin Xiaozhu tasted the braised pork he had cooked, and when he saw that it was still early, he went to close the door tightly and made a dish of Dongpo pork. This Dongpo meat is different from the general braised pork method, it does not use oil to fry the meat pieces, but the large pieces are cut into cubes after cooking, the bottom is padded with green onions and ginger, the meat is put on the skin side down, and then soy sauce, rock sugar and green onion knots are added, rice wine is poured over the meat pieces, covered and simmered in a sand pot for one or two hours, and then packed into a clay pot sealed on the steamer to steam thoroughly, and the original juice is condensed and poured on it. When Lin Xiaozhu put rice wine, he added red yeast powder.

This Dongpo pork is different from the general braised pork except for the firing process, and it is cooked directly with rice wine without a drop of water. The meat is more crispy, the taste is more mellow, and it is not greasy.

"What should I do? Do you need a secret recipe? Lin Xiaozhu looked at the two bowls of braised pork in front of him, his long eyelashes fluttering.

However, she didn't dwell on it for long, and on the morning of the next day, Steward Qin came to the small kitchen: "Lin Xiaozhu, Xia Shan, Wu Pingqiang, all come out." ”

Lin Xiaozhu hurriedly opened the door and went out, but saw Steward Qin pacing around the courtyard with some anxiety on his face. Seeing them come out, he didn't care about saying anything, and said directly: "The time of the game has been changed to tonight." Hurry up and get ready, and go get the ingredients now. ”

"What? Didn't you say tomorrow? Wu Pingqiang said urgently. He hasn't cooked to his satisfaction.

Steward Qin waved his hand impatiently: "Tell you to compare when you want, where is there so much nonsense!" After speaking, he turned around, "Hurry up and get the ingredients, move quickly." If you don't want to play, you can quit now. ”

Lin Xiaozhu glanced at Xia Shan, shrugged his shoulders, and followed behind Steward Qin.

So far, how can there be no comparison? If you want to spend more time on development, you just want to keep improving. Wu Pingqiang didn't have the slightest idea of quitting the game, and when he saw Lin Xiaozhu leaving, he hurriedly followed Xia Shan to catch up.

The three of them received the ingredients, and they hurriedly began to cook, so busy that they didn't even have time to drink a sip of water, and when the sun was about to set, Steward Qin went to the small kitchen to inform the serving. The three of them had their own complicated feelings, packed the dishes that had been carefully prepared for most of the day with the food box, and followed Steward Qin to a side hall in the main courtyard with their hands in their hands.

"Lord, son, the dish is here." Steward Qin stopped and bowed forward.

Lin Xiaozhu glanced forward with his peripheral vision, but only saw Yu Jiaoxi and Ma Jiaoxi sitting in the hall. Although they were sitting, the two of them were a little restless, and their faces were the same as those of Steward Qin, and there was also a trace of anxiety.

"Could it be that the three nobles who taught the dishes were not satisfied and were scolded?" Lin Xiaozhu thought to himself. Yu Guang unconsciously looked into the hall. Sure enough, as she guessed, since Yuan Tianye was doing that shady deed, that noble man wanted to prevent people from recognizing him, so naturally he would not show his face in front of them. Not to mention the figure of the nobles in this hall, Yuan Tianye and Tang Ning are nowhere to be seen. Rather, next to the two teaching chairs, there was a wide beaded curtain. But the outside was bright, but the room was dark, and the light in the room behind the beaded curtain was so obscured that nothing could be seen, and it was really impossible to see whether anyone was sitting in it.

Before she could pause, however, she heard a familiar voice from within, confirming her suspicions: "Put it on." "But it's Yuan Tianye.

Hearing this command, Wu Pingqiang subconsciously wanted to go inside and put the dishes on the table. But he was used to being a bear shrinking behind him, and before he could reach his limbs, his eyes glanced at Lin Xiaozhu. Seeing Lin Xiaozhu standing there without moving, and Xia Shan saw that she was not moving, she was also motionless, and she hurriedly stopped the steps that she was about to take out.

When he saw Yuan Shi, Tang Wei, and Tang An coming out of it and taking the food box in their hands, Wu Pingqiang secretly congratulated himself on his quick reaction, and knew that he glanced at Lin Xiaozhu and did not make a reckless move.

"Master, do you taste them one by one, or do you put them all together?" This question was the voice of the twenty-something servant of the distinguished guest.

"Put it all together." The voice of the distinguished guest rang out.

Immediately afterward, I heard the sound of dishes.

Yu Jiaoxi and Ma Jiaoxi sat next to the bead curtain, very close to the inside, and through the gap in the bead curtain, they could see the scene inside. When they saw that almost all of the food boxes taken out of Wu Pingqiang and Xia Shan were meat, they glanced at each other and shook their heads with a wry smile.

Usually, it's just that the prince is not by the prince's side, and the whip is out of reach, and he can't care about what food the prince eats. This prince came to the villa, even if he threw himself into the net, how could there be a reason not to be controlled by the doctor? Therefore, since the prince came to the villa, after these three or four meals, the three chefs, plus Zhao Hu and Li Weizhu, have tried their best to make some vegetarian dishes and let the prince eat some food that is beneficial to his health. Who knew that the prince refused to eat at all, he was furious, and he was reluctant to scold his son-in-law and cousin-in-law, so he took them out of anger. In the past two days, they have been scolded miserably, and they have almost not been scolded by the rod. But Childe refused to budge at all. The prince couldn't do it, although he ate those vegetarian dishes, but he said that he suddenly remembered that there was something at home, and he wanted to go back in a hurry, so the three apprentices hurried to compete, and he went back to the capital.

It's only been here for two days, and his body hasn't recovered yet, so he said he wanted to leave, where is the son? I had to let the three apprentices cook the dishes first, which was regarded as a delaying tactic.

But now, I couldn't stand the tricks of the prince that day, and I said that I like to eat meat. These apprentices were so eager to win that they all made meat.

(During the hospitalization, I was scheduled to have a minor operation, but due to the wrong time, it has been postponed until today.) I had four classes this morning, and in the afternoon I went to the hospital and had surgery. Although it was a minor operation, the doctor's order required half a month of rest. I don't dare to work hard today, so I can only work more. After a few days, depending on the physical condition. If it doesn't work, you can only change it. Two shifts should be restored next week. I saw some pro-messages in the comment area, saying that I like Ling Shui's text, and Ling Shui is really happy in his heart, so no matter how tired he is, he is willing to do it. Everyone's tips, pinks and comments, stay in good health for two days, thank you one by one! (To be continued)
