Chapter 346: Busy Some
After Ye Qing entered the West City Gate, while walking, he was thinking about what he should do tomorrow to participate in the cooking competition.
With less than a day left in town, how do you get everything in order?
It would be nice if you gave a few more days, and before you knew it, Ye Qing had already come to the outside of Pinxiang Pavilion.
I looked up at the still lively restaurant, and my eyes flashed with a complicated light.
After a long time, she shook her head, sighed, and gave up this building in order to cut off her relationship with Ye Jiang's family.
If this is her own restaurant, she can also show off her skills in the food industry.
Thinking of the old woman calculating herself, the silver was not yet hot, and it was stolen by Ye Bao and lost.
I don't know what that kid has done to the old woman.
Moreover, the Huang family also left the Ye family with Chen Ailian, and in the future, he returned to live with his father and younger brother, and he didn't have to see them under his nose.
It's really unpleasant to have a cycle of retribution.
They calculated and calculated, and if they were guilty of this crime, they would save themselves from doing it.
Thinking that it was too early for this ancient man to get married, if she could be ten years later, how much time should she have to make herself stronger!
Thinking about it, Ye Qing still knows very well in his heart that he has a lot to do now, so let's take it step by step.
On the way back to the courtyard, she actually met the butcher who was selling beef and returning home, he was carrying two large boxes of thick cow bones and cow offal, muttering as he walked that no one wanted this thing.
"Uncle, these are cow bones you picked, right?"
"Yes, the beef is sold out today, and there are all these things that no one wants, and they don't want to buy them.
It's a pity to lose so much, I took it back and prepared to find the old man in Sichuan next door to my house to see if I could eat it, I heard that people over there would use a big pot to stew and eat this thing. ”
Ye Qing's eyes flashed twice, and he stepped forward and asked, "I see that Uncle has a lot of money in this basket, so it's better to sell half of it to me."
How about I give you twenty dollars, I haven't eaten beef since I'm so big, even if there is no beef, get some of these and go back to stew, and taste it. ”
When the butcher saw that Ye Qing wanted to buy it, his eyes rolled and he smiled and said, "If you are willing to give me fifty wen, I will give you all of these, and I will help you pick them home." ”
"Okay, then you can help me pick it up, it just so happens that my house is not too far from here."
Ye Qing looked at the contents of the two big baskets, the flesh on the bones had been scraped clean, pure bare bones.
A pair of internal organs is very complete, several of the cow's stomachs are there, and the others are not missing.
In Ye Qing's opinion, just those few beef tripes are worth more than fifty wen, and the people in this town probably don't know that this thing is delicious.
When Ye Qing returned to the small courtyard, Ye Xi was boiling medicine for his father, and the father and son had already had dinner, eating corn porridge and green vegetable buns bought from the academy.
Ye Qing paid the copper money to the butcher, and the cow bones and cow offal were filled with three wooden basins.
"Sister, what did you buy? How is it so big a bone? ”
"This is beef bones, I will use it to make soup later, and the dried noodles cooked in beef bone broth are also delicious, I will make them for you tomorrow morning."
Ye Xi was stunned and asked, "Isn't it illegal to kill cattle?" ”
"This is a cow that fell to death from a foreigner's house, it's fine."
"Oh, do you want me to help my sister light the fire? This medicine is almost ready. ”
Ye Qing thought about it for a while, and didn't plan to make another dinner, she shook her head and said, "No need, I'll come by myself." After you feed your father, you should rest early. ”
After saying that, she took out some leftover pork bones from the back basket, then washed the beef bones and cut them into large pieces with a thick knife.
Then put half a pot full of water in a large pot, put in the beef and pork bones at the same time, first boil on a high fire, and then skim off the blood foam.
There is a lot of blood stained on the bones of the cow, so the foam must be removed. If the foam is not removed in time, the soup will easily become a dirty bag and the taste will be fishy.
Cook for a while, remove and rinse.
Then add ginger slices and cooking wine and boil for about a quarter of an hour, and simmer for two hours.
Unfortunately, there is no natural gas and no coal, otherwise it is best to boil this soup for more than six hours.
She couldn't keep an eye on the fire in the kitchen and not go to sleep, so she could only simply stay up for two hours.
Taking advantage of the time of boiling the soup, Ye Qing was ready to clean all the internal organs of the cow.
She washed the tripe first.
Ruminants such as cattle and sheep generally have four stomachs, and tripe, which refers to the stomach of a cow. They are hairy belly, money belly, shutters, and mushroom heads.
These four can be marinated, stir-fried, or eaten shabu-shabu.
It can make bean skin shabu tripe, stacked tripe, double pepper fried tripe, dipping buffalo tripe, spicy tripe, bamboo shoots dried tripe, tea-flavored tripe, dry mixed tripe, casserole tripe and so on......
Fresh tripe has a strong peculiar smell, Ye Qing took flour and coarse salt to clean it, and then used some alkaline noodles to soak the tripe.
After soaking for half an hour, wash it with plenty of water, and then put the tripe into the space to keep it fresh.
If you want to eat it when the time comes, just take it out again.
As for the rest, they will be made into spicy beef offal tomorrow, and let Ye Ying and his wife take them back when the time comes.
By the time the beef bone broth is ready, it's already time. She extinguished all the fires in the stove before leaving the kitchen.
Thinking about it tomorrow morning, Zheng Butcher estimated that the chickens would send the pig's heads over, and after Ye washed the bath, he entered the space, and first put the chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep in the pasture.
Filled with grass again, quickly left the space, and went to bed.
At three o'clock the next day, (more than 4 o'clock in the morning), Zheng Butcher really came over, and saw that Ye Qing and Ye Xi, who were sleepy-eyed, got up, and looked at them a little embarrassed.
"No, I'm afraid that Miss Ye, you won't sleep enough, I'm half an hour late this morning, hehe......"
Ye Qing chick nodded like a peck of rice, accepted the three baskets of pig heads and other things, waved his hand to Zheng Butcher and closed the courtyard door.
She yawned and whispered to Ye Xi, "Xiaoxi, you go to the house and sleep again." ”
"What about you?" Ye Xi asked.
Ye Qing pointed to those pig heads and said, "It's time for me to get up and get busy, do you see, so many things have to be marinated." ”
"That's so much, can we finish eating at home?"
"It's not for food, it's for sale, and my sister is going to buy and sell this braised vegetable in the future."
"Selling braised vegetables?"
"Hmm." Ye Qing nodded.
"Great, my sister's braised vegetables are so delicious, I will definitely make money." Ye Xi said happily.
Ye Qing touched his head, "Accept your auspicious words, when the time comes, my sister will buy you some books and useful paper and pens." ”
