Father Xu has been very excited since he learned that his son-in-law woke up, fantasizing about being called "father-in-law" by Xue Dagongzi and introducing him to the circle that he had not been able to enter before.

As a result, he was stopped by his unlucky daughter and didn't let him see his son-in-law, so he went to the hot spring village outside the city to recuperate, and let the people over there grow some vegetables and fruits with very good taste, and sent them to the palace and the Zhong family, but he didn't give it to his father-in-law, so he couldn't help but be annoyed and angry, and dropped the teacup several times that night.

Xue Zhaojin received the news from the secret guard, raised his eyebrows, and handed the note to Xu Yin, wanting to see her reaction.

Xu Zhiren Yin glanced at it and continued to eat hot pot and drink strawberry juice.

The watermelon is not ripe much, and the juice is too luxurious, so you can cut one into two pieces and taste it.

She scalded a few slices of fish slices that were as thin as cicada wings, put them in the dipping dish in front of him, saw that his lips were dry and a little peeling, and stuffed a piece of watermelon into his hand, but looking at his expression, it seemed that it was more appropriate to stuff melon seeds?

"Am I right? My dad can't take advantage of you, and he's starting to be anxious, but fortunately we didn't go back for the New Year, otherwise it would be annoying. ”

In fact, Xu's father's reaction is nothing, and the next melon is called more urgent and dense, otherwise she would not hide in Zhuangzi outside the city, after all, it is cool to eat melons on the wall - the real first-hand big melon, cooked and sweet!

I can't eat the melon in the second room for the time being, so I can only eat a watermelon grown by the hot spring pool first.

Her mother-in-law liked the hot pot she prepared very much.

She asked people to find craftsmen to customize a relatively simple copper hot pot, thinking that each person's taste is different, and hit six copper hot pots of the same style in one breath, four small and two large, two large hot pots for people to eat hot dishes on Chinese New Year's Eve, four small, one for a family of three, and one for guests to come to the door.

The hot pot base was fried by her a day in advance, and the spicy and non-spicy sauces were all fried, and Xue Zhaojin's body had not fully recovered, so she didn't give the red oil base, and specially hung a pot of light mushroom mountain soup for him, which was delicious enough without dipping.

She and her mother-in-law do not have these taboos, the base material, dipping sauce have chosen their favorite, each person has a solid wood shelf next to them, layered chicken, duck, fish, shrimp, pig, sheep and other meat slices, in the autumn farm dried all kinds of mushroom shoots sent by the farm, soaked and cut into slices, strips, and the head of the village with people grinding tofu, rice cakes, Xu Yin led the green leafy vegetables and vegetables......

What she wanted to eat, Zhong Minhua saw that her daughter-in-law could take care of herself and her son in an orderly manner without the help of the maid, so she waved her hand to let the maid of the cloth vegetable also retreat, trying to "do it yourself".

There was no one to cook next to him, although he was a little unaccustomed to it at first, but after adapting to it, Zhong Minhua actually felt so comfortable.

And it is hot to eat at any time, the entrance of the dish is hot, unlike the New Year in the house, after a large family is seated, one after another on the table, even if the charcoal basin is warm after the pot, after the table is put on the plate, you can't move the chopsticks immediately, you have to listen to the old lady say a few words about the prosperity of Xue Mansion this year, the achievements of the children and nephews in the past year, after a few words of flattery, then raise the chopsticks, wait for the maid to spread the dishes, clamp into the mouth, not cold but also cold.

The light vegetables are better, and the big fish and meat in the thick oil and red sauce are all frozen, and there is no appetite when you look at it, so it is better to be like this right now, and it is comfortable to eat by yourself.

These ingredients are not delicately plated or have a long list of auspicious names, at most they are marinated for a little time in advance for the sake of flavor, and after they are blanched, they are still the original appearance of the ingredients, retaining their original flavor, but surprisingly delicious.

Zhong Minhua has fallen in love with hot pot since then, and the hot pot around the hearth on the Chinese New Year's Eve is not enough, and when her son and daughter-in-law came to greet her early in the morning of the first day of the new year, she stuffed a big red envelope for one of them, and asked her daughter-in-law: "Is there still hot pot for today's meal?" ”

Xu Yin: "......"

Mother, are you addicted to hot pot?

But if you like it, you can arrange it!

Anyway, here, their family of three has the final say.

If you want to eat hot pot and eat hot pot, if you want to eat dry pot and eat dry pot, even if you want to eat barbecue, you can also arrange it!

"What's a dry pot?"

"What is barbecue?"

“……”

Get!

There is work to be done on the first day of the first month!

It's time to show your mother-in-law the diversity of the cuisine of the flower planter.

The dry pot is easy to do, and the hot pot base she fried is also delicious to make a dry pot, explain the cooking technique clearly, and leave it to the kitchen to do it.

She had to do the barbecue herself.

After all, whether the marinade is flavorful, salty, and heat are all related to the final quality of the skewers.

Fortunately, there are not many other hot spring Zhuangzi, and there are a lot of charcoal hoards of various grades, and I want to come to Zhuangtou and understand the psychology of the masters - come here to live in late autumn, who will soak in the warm soup when it is hot? And the most inseparable thing from the cold weather is the charcoal basin, warm hands, warm feet, warm tea, hot hot hearts...... Charcoal is used.

Smokeless silver frost charcoal is the best quality and most expensive charcoal in this dynasty, and it is tasteless and smokeless to burn, which is too suitable for barbecue.

Xu Yin asked Zhuangtou to find a carpenter to come over, and according to the drawings she made, he made a long barbecue grill on the spot.

As soon as the carpenter heard that it was the grandmother of the house, he took out the high-quality wood he had saved, and worked diligently to planing the wood flowers and doing the work.

Xu Yin walked away for a while, went to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients she wanted, and when she came back, she saw the prototype of the barbecue grill coming out, and just wanted to praise the carpenter's high work efficiency. Mahogany!

“……”

Xu Yin didn't know what to say.

She just wants a rack that can barbecue, what is the whole mahogany for?

Is this for her to use or not?

Huh? Master, what are you doing?

Carved?

No, no, no!

She laughed and cried to stop the old carpenter's carving process, but asked him to make a half-moon shaped opening every ten centimeters on the edge of the inlaid copper groove, which was used to set up bamboo skewers.

The carpenter is very meticulous, slow work and meticulous work, Xu Yin didn't bother him, back to the kitchen, the cook has already washed and prepared the ingredients she wants, and she began to adjust the marinade and sprinkle the ingredients.

Meat usually needs to be marinated first, so that it is more flavorful, but it cannot be oversalted, so she does all the work herself, but she allows the cook to observe and learn from it. In case Zhuangzi comes up with guests one day, and you can't think of what to invite the guests to eat, it's not bad to have a wave of skewers to drink.

Prepare the ingredients here, and direct the subordinates to sharpen the bamboo sticks there.

The ingredients are ready, the bamboo skewers are sharpened, and the carpenter's grill is completely finished, and the edges and corners are polished to a fairly smooth finish.

didn't let him carve, he still applied the spirit of carving to every detail!

Xu Yin was amazed, and happily rewarded the carpenter with a silver ingot.
