Chapter 169: Out of the Pot
The temperature of 150 to 160 is no longer something that can be measured by ordinary thermometers, and it is impossible for Shang Xia to let people take a thermometer to measure it.
So she pointed to the oil in the pot and the fire below and said, "Just turn the oil into this way, and the fire will keep its current size, and the temperature will not be exceeded." ”
After speaking, she also gently took Lin Mu's hand and put it on the top of the pot and the side of the fire to feel it.
It's too abstract to say that the data is as clear as the intuitive feeling.
Mother Lin was used to housework, so as soon as she felt the temperature on her hands, she had a count in her heart.
At the same time, she couldn't help but glance at Shang Xia even higher in her heart, and the liking in her heart also went to the next level.
"It's time to start the pot, don't break the chicken skin when fishing, otherwise the meat will be easy to paste."
Shang Xia saw that the chicken had turned persimmon yellow and immediately said.
Mother Lin secretly made a note of the current appearance of the chicken, so as not to fry it in the future.
At this time, she no longer doubted that this roast chicken would not be able to make it, but now she is wholeheartedly remembering things to operate, so she has not noticed this psychological change in herself.
In the end, he is a person who often does things, and he is familiar with the chicken at hand after raising chickens for so many years.
As soon as she heard that she couldn't puncture the skin of the chicken, she used a meat fork to put it on the chicken's neck, without touching the chicken's body at all.
Seeing this detail, Shang Xia couldn't help but praise her.
When she said it just now, she forgot to tell Mother Lin what to do not destroy the goosebumps, but she didn't expect that she was underestimating others.
Thinking about it like this, she couldn't help but feel that she was too conceited, and secretly decided to be more calm in the future, so as not to be self-righteous in the future because she knew more.
"Put the chicken in a pot, add water and ingredients and bring it to a boil over high heat."
Mother Lin poured the used oil into the pot next to her according to the operation, and then Shang Xiaohe helped wash the pot.
At this time, Lin Mu stood in front of the spices that Shang Xia picked out to use, "Burn, take a note." ”
Shang Xia immediately went to get a pen and paper, and said, "Sand kernels, cardamom, ......"
She reported the name of the spice next to each other, and Lin Ran quickly wrote it down in her beautiful handwriting.
It takes some time for the water to boil, so there's no rush here.
Mother Lin tried each ingredient with her hands and roughly estimated how many there were.
"Is this the amount of roast chicken to make?"
Before she could speak, Lin Ran had already asked.
"No, the difference between one chicken or more chicken feed is not too much, because after the ingredients are cooked, there are up to three chickens in the pot at the same time, and it is still necessary to make the pot large enough to prevent these chickens from sticking together."
Shang Xia saw that Lin Ran had also written this sentence on the note, and couldn't help but smile at his seriousness and prudence.
Ever since I saw him again, he seemed to have always been so serious, and he had always believed what he said without any reason.
Shang Xia had experienced betrayal and deception in his previous life, so he cherished such unconditional trust.
Everyone smelled the tempting fragrance emitted by the smell of the ingredients, and they all barked a little belly.
Under the boiling of the fire, the chicken itself is also oiled, and the soup base at this time has become a perfect blend of chicken broth and ingredients.
"Eh, this will be better for a while, let's eat some first."
Shang Xiaohe said and took out the dishes and chopsticks and put out the dishes that had just been hot.
Shang Xia went to serve food to everyone, and it was really uncomfortable to have an empty stomach in such a aroma.
She and her mother didn't eat much because of Chen Yougui's unreasonable trouble, so they were also uncomfortable at this time.
But everyone didn't eat too much, because there was such a big chicken in front of them, and they had to taste it later.
After they finished eating a few bites, the soup in the pot also boiled, and at this time, Shang Xia immediately changed the fire to Lin Mu.
Mother Lin took the initiative to reach out and test the temperature of the fire this time, because the home uses an earthen stove, which is different from natural gas, it is not so easy to control, and it is up to her to feel and control it with her hands.
"Isn't it for the sake of flavor?"
Shang Xiaohe interjected that she usually cooks vegetables with a procedure called collecting juice, which is how it is simmered over low heat.
"That's right, the chicken inside will also have a flavor, not just the surface flavor, so it will be delicious."
While discussing the details with everyone, Mother Lin always paid attention to the situation of the chicken, and as soon as Shang Xia said it, she immediately fished out a whole chicken with a big fork and chopsticks.
Everyone immediately gathered around, only to see that the roast chicken was light red and slightly tender yellow, the shape was complete, the chicken skin was not cracked at all, the surface was smooth and there was no fluff, Rao was as calm as Shang Xia, and he couldn't help swallowing his saliva.
"It smells so good!"
"Yes, Xia Xia, this is a success, right?"
Shang Xiaohe didn't expect that his daughter's method was really good, and she would make such a fragrant roast chicken.
"You'll have to try it to find out."
Shang Xia divided the roast chicken into several portions and let everyone taste it.
After taking a bite, she only felt that the chicken skin was full of chewiness, and the chicken meat was fragrant to her lips and teeth.
It tasted even better than what she had tasted at that student's house back then!
She knew that this had a lot to do with the good quality of Mother Lin's native chicken, but she was still excited.
If it weren't for the large number of people, Lin Mu might have cried when she bit the first piece of chicken - it was a success, it was really a success!
"Auntie, let's make another one!"
Shang Xia immediately spoke, she wanted to test it immediately, just by taking advantage of herself on the side, so that Lin Mu was more familiar with the production process of roast chicken.
The second operation of Lin Mu became much more proficient, and she quickly made a new roast chicken.
"Auntie, Mom, Lin Ran, let's go sell it now!"
A bigger and more direct stimulation can make Lin Mu and Lin Ran both convinced that making roast chicken is a better choice, since they have already done this, why not take one more step?
In this way, Shang Xia wrapped the roast chicken that had been partially eaten just now, and Lin Mu walked out with another roast chicken in something.
"What did you make so delicious, so fragrant?"
As soon as he went out, he met a few neighbors who were sitting together chatting, and Shang Xia immediately tore some chicken for everyone to taste.
"This is made by my aunt to sell, is it delicious for my aunt and aunt?"
A few people originally thought it was some kind of roasted dish, but they didn't expect it to be roast chicken, and it was used to sell.
After a bite, the expressions of several people changed, and one of the rich aunts said directly: "Is there anything else, I'll buy half one!" ”
In this way, most people didn't even ask the price along the way, and directly bought the roast chicken made by Mother Lin.
The roast chicken was sold before he got out of the small building, which made Mother Lin, who had waited for a morning and had not sold a single chicken, ecstatic.
She immediately took a hot iron and made the remaining chickens with ready-made ingredients, and then went to the vegetable market for a walk.
Although there are fewer people who come to buy vegetables now, many vendors are still there, and there are residents here, and after a while, the whole basket of roast chicken was sold cleanly!
"Xia Xia, Auntie really doesn't know how to thank you!"
On the way back, Mother Lin took Shang Xia's hand and said it over and over again, and Shang Xia's face turned red.
"Auntie, it's because of your good craftsmanship, if you let me make it, I won't be able to make such a good taste, your roast chicken is the first one!"
After Shang Xia finished speaking, Shang Xiaohe also said a word, and praised Lin Mu so much that she couldn't stop laughing.
"A lot of people who haven't bought it have booked, and they will buy it tomorrow, I'm going to buy some big ingredients and go back, and I'll buy more tomorrow!"
In this way, Mother Lin doesn't have to worry about not being able to sell her chickens at home, let alone worrying that her son's tuition will not be able to make up!
Because just today alone, she has already earned more than 100 yuan and 200, you must know that she didn't take a few chickens to sell today!
Roast chicken is sold according to the number of catties, and the price of a whole chicken has already exceeded the price of live chicken, but everyone has not even bargained, and some people even want to increase the price just to buy it.
However, she is an honest person, and she did not accept such a price increase, only saying that she would come here to sell it tomorrow.
After saying goodbye to both sides, Mother Lin took her son to buy big ingredients.
When he was about to walk to the grocery store, Lin Ran said to his mother, "Mom, let's not just buy those kinds of ingredients, but also buy some others." ”
"Why? Isn't it a waste of money to buy something that you don't need? ”
Lin Ran's mind flashed through Shang Xia's previous practice, and a perfectly curved smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"You see that our business is so good today, there will definitely be people who want to sell it when they see it. If we only buy the big ingredients we need to make roast chicken, then those who are interested will know what to do as soon as they ask, and they will suffer a loss when the time comes. ”
Mother Lin didn't think about it so much, and even thought that it was good for everyone to make money.
Lin Ran naturally saw her thoughts, so he added: "Although Shang Xia said that it was from the book, but do you think, if such a good recipe is in the book, how can no one make roast chicken to sell?" ”
Mother Lin came back to her senses at this time, looked at her son and said in surprise: "You mean, this method of roasting chicken is actually a unique secret recipe in Shang Xia's family!?" ”
Lin Ran nodded.
"Shang Xia has always been very good-hearted, and he must have thought of this method because we couldn't sell the local chickens today, but he was afraid that we wouldn't accept it, so he shirked it and said that it was from the book."
"No, this can't be done! This ancestral recipe is the most precious of all, and we cannot ask for it. Let's go, let's go and tell Xia Xia that we don't sell this roast chicken! ”
Lin Ran grabbed his mother, "Mom, Shang Xia has spent so much effort to teach us this method, what will she think of talking about this at this time?" ”
Only then did Mother Lin calm down and think carefully about everything that happened in Shang Xia's house today.
She knew that if she said that she wouldn't make roast chicken at this time, it would be a waste of the hard work of Shang Xiaohe's mother and daughter.
And maybe it will make the relationship between the two families worse, but the gains outweigh the losses.
"That'...... It's not good to take advantage of others like this. ”
After a hard life, Mother Lin knows the importance of these secret recipes, how many big businessmen will strictly guard these good things, for fear of leaking a word?
Now that she knows that this is a unique secret recipe, how can she accept it calmly?
"Burn, no, let's return this recipe!" I want to chat with more like-minded people about "{?$article_title?} ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
