Chapter 13: Visible Freshness
"Xiao Xu, but I haven't been here for a while, I'm still so idle, I just sat when I came, why did I shoot it again?"
Xu Bin turned around and saw Uncle Wu, "Uncle Wu, you said that I would take more pictures and wash them out for you to advertise, so can you save my food money?"
"It's got it, it's still good, uncle, I still don't have you for this meal? Advertising is free, I want to make a few menus with patterns, you can watch it, Uncle today, I invite you to eat fish." Uncle Wu smiled at Xu Bin and raised the fish basket high, quite a bit of a show-off.
"What's the catch? I'm so happy, I'll see. Xu Bin walked over in two or three steps, took the fish basket and looked inward: "Yo, there are so many crucian carp, yo, and a river group, hahaha, Uncle Wu, you really have to show your hands today." ”
Xu Bin is also happy, the small river in the back mountain is a tributary of the Qingshui River, crucian carp is common, the river group is not common, the scientific name of the river group is long-snouted catfish, this kind of fish is generally active in the depths of the big river, and it is rare to be able to fish in the small river, this is estimated to be lost in the Qingshui River, and ran to the inconspicuous small river ditch in the back mountain of Muhe Town.
Aunt Wu has already cleaned up the chicken, and then took out the fish and started to deal with it, Xu Bin started from time to time, but more often it was a close-up of Aunt Wu handling various ingredients.
At that time, as soon as the bite of China came out, many people were greedy and beautiful, and it also let everyone know that a series of close-ups with clear and full colors can make home-cooked dishes with local smells so beautiful and mouth-watering.
Uncle Wu also began to concoct it, the wood with the smell of pine in the earthen stove burned a vigorous flame, the iron big black pot was hot, and a little raw vegetable oil was poured into it, and a string of golden oil flowers gradually appeared.
Muhe Town, 70 kilometers away from Qingbei City, from the city to the bus station and then take a minibus has to take more than an hour, in this economically underdeveloped third-tier city, the surrounding towns can not be developed.
However, it is precisely because of this that there is also an ancient oil extraction workshop in the town, and Xu Bin once went to collect wind during the harvest season.
In early spring, the small flowers that are still tender and yellow all over the field turn into slender pods in late spring, which naturally crack after drying, and then break them with a stick, sift them several times, and throw away the pod shells and stalks, leaving a round black-brown rapeseed the size of a sesame seed.
By frying, grinding, steaming, and then wrapping the straw with an iron hoop to make a embryo cake, put it into a whole large wood hewn into the trough wood, the man with a bare upper body tied to the horse, vigorously shaking the stone hammer hanging on the beam with thick hemp rope, a hammer hammer hit the stake on the trough wood, so that the squeezed oil embryo cake flowed out wisps of clear oil, dripping down from the oil outlet in the middle of the oil trough.
Although the crude oil is placed in a white porcelain bowl in this way, it is a relatively heavy gold, but if a large number of it is hoarded together, it looks like soy sauce that is not black in the middle of winter, and the appearance is not pleasing, and it smells slightly spicy and raw, and now it is becoming more and more unpopular, but in fact, it is very fragrant to cook vegetables, and the refined rapeseed oil in the supermarket is golden and translucent and has no peculiar smell, but there is no unique flavor when cooking, and the smoke point of vegetable oil is too low, and the fire is slightly thick and smokey, so they have long lost ground in modern kitchens, and are gradually replaced by peanut oil salad oil。
Xu Bin likes this kind of vegetable oil with a raw and spicy taste, and the dishes he makes are a little more delicious than other oils, but it is not easy to buy in the city, so he can only make a tooth sacrifice here.
It didn't take much effort, steaming hot, a big bowl full of green pepper and spicy chicken was put in a large earthen bowl with half of the glaze and placed on the unpainted wooden table with a bright texture, smelling the aroma of making people swallow saliva, Xu Bin couldn't help it, quickly reached out and picked up a piece and put it in his mouth.
"Delicious. Xu Bin smiled from ear to ear, living like a flower who hadn't seen meat for three years, and Aunt Wu also followed with Lehe on the side: "Whew, smack, use chopsticks, don't use your hands, my aunt will bring you chopsticks." ”
The milky white wild crucian carp soup is filled with fine shredded ginger and green onions, as well as fresh shredded perilla leaves freshly picked from the field.
Jiang Tuan made boiled fish fillets, under the black thick and shiny fish skin, pieces of snow-white fish meat were surrounded by red oil soup, the sparse thorns were all removed by the skillful Uncle Wu, bright red dried chili peppers, green coriander and mint, dark brown peppercorns were moistened by the hot oil, and there was a crackling and lively sound.
Coupled with a stir-fried green vegetables with shiitake mushrooms and a plate of cold green cowpeas, a large table of sumptuous delicacies filled this slightly cold farmhouse courtyard with a burst of happiness.
Xu Bin didn't forget to take pictures of the food he ate secretly, and took a dish on the last dish, changing the angle or squatting or leaning.
"Don't shoot, let's eat, can you still shoot flowers? Come on, come on, drink two glasses with your Uncle Wu." Uncle Wu put down the spatula and instructed Aunt Wu to serve wine.
"Hey, hey, Uncle Wu, you don't know, you can really shoot flowers. Xu Bin looked at the table in front of him and felt hot, and the grievances when he read the email in the morning all turned into brain supplements, when the people who ate melons on the Internet were stunned when they saw the pictures, that kind of ease, that kind of comfort, the kind of pleasure when he slapped others in the face: "Come, Uncle Wu, I will give you a cup, I will do it first!"
This meal was eaten from noon to afternoon, and Xu Bin was round belly, Xu Bin, who returned to the classic photo studio, couldn't wait to send a photo of crucian carp soup to the back of yesterday's cake photo post after using [remove the fake and keep the truth], and originally wanted to be accompanied by some group ridicule text, but after thinking about it, forget it, he is going to do business, group ridicule or something, lower the style, and slap them in the face with facts, Xu Bin sat in front of the computer, and already had a premonition that there would be many people with sore cheeks.
He has already thought about it, to save the false and the true can only be used once a day, today in the photos taken by Uncle Wu can be picked: one for each dish, a few fresh vegetables, plus a large bowl of well water, you can make up the amount of one update a day for many days in the future, he is ready to use this short period of time to feed himself a bag of salt, and then by the way, he slapped countless faces.
Looking at the wild crucian carp soup that has been uploaded, Xu Bin seems to be on the side of the clear stream of the mountain stream, the stream under the sun is shining with golden light, and the blue-black back of the crucian carp is dexterously shuttling between the big stones, and it seems to be squatting on the ridge, looking at the green onions that look like green jade, the fragrant ginger flowers and the clusters of perilla with purple in the green, and occasionally the mountain wind blows, and the heart is comfortable.
What is visible freshness? This is called visible freshness!
