Then it is to make chili oil, Xu Zheng has always wanted to do this thing, and there are always people who have not made it for various reasons, and today it happens to make such a thing. It should not be underestimated, and it plays a leading role in the seasoning of many foods with spicy flavor as the main flavor. To a large extent, whether it is spicy or not directly determines whether the prepared food tastes delicious or not, such as the bowl chicken that is now being sold, if it is added to the soup, the taste will be richer.

There is no shortage of dried chili peppers in Lucina's kitchen, there are those hanging in strings to dry, and there is no shortage of those pounded into flour for later use, Xu Zheng found a large container to fill four-fifths of the full and began to burn oil. This new method of dealing with it has never been seen before by Carlo and Xiaoban, and both of them watched Xu Zheng deploy with great interest.

Xu Zheng is really not good at the work of burning fire, so he handed it over to the small class to do, and only asked the small class not to burn the fire too much, so as not to control the oil temperature too high.

Then pour the oil into the pot and put it on the fire to heat, before the oil temperature rises and there is no white smoke, put in a few green onions, slowly pour them with oil, until the oil smoke rises, exudes the fragrance of green onions, and then the taste is exhausted, and the green onions that have become somewhat browned and yellowed are removed, and a few green onions are replaced to repeat the process. After the oil smells completely removed and the aroma of green onions is exuded, the oil is cooled and the ginger, garlic and pepper are poured and seasoned in the same way.

Fortunately, compared with the previous life in this other world, there is not only no shortage of native condiments of this plant, but also a wider variety, which allows Xu Zheng to avoid the situation that it is difficult for a clever daughter-in-law to cook without rice. Xu Zheng even boldly tried to add oil squeezed from the seeds of a plant called fragrant snail knotweed, so that he made the oil smell more tempting in the process of preparing the oil.

After the preparation process of the spare oil was over, Xu Zheng took off the pot from the fire, put a small amount of salt, sesame seeds, peppercorns, fried soybeans, and mashed peanuts into the prepared dried chili peppers, and then waited for the oil to go down and no longer emitted white smoke before taking a spoon, while pouring the oil into the container containing the chili flour mixture, while slowly stirring to let the oil and the mixture fully mix evenly.

In this process, the most important thing is to master the temperature and mix the oil well and evenly, the former can make the mixture be fried and give off its own flavor, if the oil temperature is too low, the prepared chili oil will not only lack the fragrance, but also may have a raw smell. If the oil temperature is too high, it is easy to fry the scorched mixture, and there will only be a burnt smell, and the color and flavor will be gone. Xu Zheng was operating for the first time, so he didn't dare to speed up, and stirred evenly while pouring oil.

Luckily, Xu Zheng was a little anxious, in fact, he poured in the oil at a temperature that was too high than the most suitable, and the result of this was that the mixture was fully fried and at the same time had a burnt aroma, similar to a slightly burnt rice, which always smelled more fragrant. The result of full stirring makes the mixture not over-burned, and it is unintentionally planted in the willows and willows to make the chili oil just right.

Carlo and Ben saw that as the cooked oil was poured down, the entire surface of the mixture began to boil, and the thick white smoke began to evaporate upwards. After further stirring, the whole container of powdery things has been cooked, and a spicy aroma mixed with the aroma of peanuts, soybeans, and sesame seeds rushes to the tip of the nose, the aroma is rich and spicy, and the scalp feels slightly sweaty just smelling the smell. The two couldn't help but praise it, it was really fragrant.

Since it was the first time to do it, the amount of oil was more than Xu Zheng estimated, so he burned some oil again and poured it into the container. After this step is completed, the preparation of chili oil is completed. Xu Zheng lowered his head and looked at the chili oil he made for the first time, only to see that the oil color was bright and bright, reflecting a strong luster, and the light oil surface was about two knuckles deep, although the oil color was bright, but it was clear and transparent, without any sense of turbidity. Gently shake the container, the oil will rotate, driving the lower layer of things, the thin is the chili flour, the thick is peanuts, sesame seeds and other things, swinging in the oil, and then slowly sinking, the layers are rich, full of fragrance, it is really tempting.

Carlo exclaimed: "You kid, you can't be unconvinced. Next year is not too old, but where did he learn so many strange skills. ”

Xu Zheng smiled secretly in his heart, counting in his past life and present life, how can he be nearly 200 years old, which is not a big deal? ”

"Your hometown?" Carlo laughed, "I don't know what kind of place can teach someone like you to be good." Don't tell me your hometown is full of foodies. ”

"Hehehe. It was Xu Zheng's turn to laugh dryly. How do you explain it? Is it from another time and space? It doesn't make sense at all, so I have to laugh and confuse the past.

Seeing Xu Zheng smiling heartlessly, Carlo didn't know that this kid wanted to get by, but he liked Xu Zheng very much in his heart, and he didn't want to ask him what he didn't want to say, so he turned a blind eye and let Xu Zheng pass by. Although poor Xu Zheng has a very smart head and a full stomach of knowledge, he has been lying down for 147 years in his previous life, and he has grown up in the uninhabited Warcraft Forest in this life.

Seeing Xu Zheng's cautious face, Carlo couldn't help but laugh secretly, and teased him: "Didn't you say that there is another one? ”

Xu Zheng said: "Do it right away." With that, he ran into the courtyard and brought out the water that had been left for a long time and clarified lime water, poured a large pot full of it, and began to urge the little class to increase the heat and boil it.

Carlo and Xiaoban couldn't help but be at a loss when they saw that it was lime water. Xiaoban asked, "Can you eat this thing?"

Xu Zheng said proudly: "Of course." There are many foods that use it as an ingredient or as a processed ingredient. I'll do this for you today, and I'll let you try Songhua Preserved Eggs when I'm free another day, and I'm sure you'll definitely have a big change in your concept of limestone at that time. ”

Carlo laughed, "I do know that some thieves who don't have the money to use pharmaceutical preparations will use it as a blinding agent to throw at people's eyes, and they don't know what they can use to eat." It doesn't poison people, does it?"

"Cut!" Xu Zheng said angrily: "When the time comes, I guarantee that you want to taste it a second time after you have tasted it once." When the time comes, you won't see that the poison is dead. ”

Xiaoban laughed and said, "The things made by Brother Xu Zheng, even if they are poisons, are estimated to be very delicious." ”

"Little ponyfter!" Xu Zheng scolded with a smile: "Boil your water, this thing is not complicated to make, and you can taste it soon." ”

Xiao Ban stepped up his actions and burned the fire. Xu Zheng saw that after the lime water was boiling, he took some of the 30 catties of flour he made, and then took some rice flour and corn flour, and then mixed the three powdered grains together, and said while stirring: "Actually, only rice flour can be used." However, I found that in this other world-" I found that I had a mistake, so I hurriedly changed my words: "Imperial Capital, rice is not a staple food, there are not many people for sale, and the raw materials are not easy to find, so I changed to rice flour as the main thing, supplemented by flour, and then mixed with a small amount of finely ground corn flour." The advantage of this is that the product is softer in taste and has the refreshing and sweet aroma of corn. The disadvantage is that it will be less tough, and the degree of delicacy is slightly lower, but the impact is not great. ”

As he spoke, he added a large amount of unfired lime water to the mixed powder, mixed it into a slurry, and slowly poured it into the pot that Xiaoban boiled, and said with a relaxed smile: "I didn't plan to do this." Later, I thought that the snacks I made recently were mainly fresh and spicy, and I inevitably felt dry after eating, so it would be better to eat this again. And the weather has been getting hotter and hotter lately, so it's a treat to have this snack in the middle of summer. Speaking of which, Xu Zheng still didn't reveal the names of the two snacks, although Carlo and Xiaoban's curiosity was aroused by Xu Zheng more and more, but after this period of getting along, he knew that this guy had a bad habit of fishing people's appetite, and he would never reveal the information of the gate until he turned it off at the end, so even if his curiosity was about to overflow, he couldn't bear to ask.

The slurry has been poured into the pot here, Xu Zheng slowly stirred with a spoon, and said with a smile: "There is a story to this snack, do you want to hear it?"

"Do you have a snack or a story?" asked Xiaoban, who was very amused.

"You're stupid. Xu Zheng teased him: "Many time-honored snacks have very beautiful legends and stories, eating snacks and listening to these action stories of oral communication really make people feel comfortable and happy." This is also another aspect of the tapas. Hey, do you want to hear it?"

Stinky boy, the kung fu of fishing people's appetite is simply perfect. Carlo loved and hated Xu Zheng, and couldn't help but say angrily: "If there is a story, tell it quickly, and let it go if there is a fart!"

"Hey, hey, hey. Xu Zheng smiled proudly before he said: "It is said that a long time ago, there was a mother and son living by a big river. One winter, when the snow was falling, my elderly mother was sick and wanted to eat a bite of the shrimp by the river. When the son heard this, he braved the cold to come to the river and wanted to catch shrimp for his mother. When he arrived at the river, he found that the surface of the river had already frozen, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break the ice. In a hurry, he simply unbuttoned his shirt and lay on the ice to melt the ice with his body. Not long after, he passed out. In a dream, an old white-bearded magician said to him, "Don't you want shrimp......?" The young man woke up with a sigh, rushed home to make shrimp according to the old man's method, and fed his mother one bite at a time, and his mother miraculously woke up. Later, the method of making small shrimp spread among the people, and people called this snack cold shrimp. You know, this snack I make is called cold shrimp. ”

This folk tale is really true, the mother and son surnamed Peng, the white-bearded old fairy was changed by Xu Zheng to the old magician, the ancient name of the cold shrimp is called "Peng Guihua Cool Shrimp" or "Filial Piety Cool Shrimp", Xu Zheng is directly omitted into cold shrimp.

The story full of filial piety and warm and touching feelings deeply touched Carlo and Xiaoban. After listening to this, the two sighed after a long time and said, "What a beautiful and moving story." After hearing this story from you, I can't wait to try this snack with a moving story. Xiaoban stared deeply at the fire and said, "When it's ready, I'll give it to my mother to taste first." ”
