Chapter Ninety-Eight: Eating Big
Haoyue patted her chest confidently: "Hmph, you'll know what it's like later." β
A makeshift earthen stove made of yellow mud is blazing on a hot fire, and a red soup pot with a mixture of spicy, marinated, and buttery flavors is tumbling on it, and the soup pot is steaming out.
Haoyue bowed a handful of white hot air and fanned it to the tip of Gejiamu's nose.
The spicy smell mixed with various spices was simply wonderful, and Ge Jiamu was instantly intoxicated, and his mouth began to secrete saliva frantically.
"Come on, come on, Yue'er has got some of the ingredients you want."
The second girl squeezed over with a small white porcelain bowl on the table, and saw that the small white porcelain bowls were filled with fine garlic paste and mellow and fragrant sesame paste.
This sesame sauce was made by Er Ya Niang with a few soldiers according to what Haoyue said.
They first stir-fry the white sesame seeds, then pour them into the stone pan, add an appropriate amount of sesame oil while scooping, and wait until the sesame seeds are pureed and the sesame paste is ready.
In addition to the sesame sauce ingredients, there are also oil dishes with only green onions, ginger, garlic and sesame oil, and the oil dishes contain yellow and clear sesame oil, which is the best for shabu hot ingredients.
Except for Shen Yinxing, everyone else stared at the small bowl curiously, not knowing how to eat this.
Under the gaze of everyone, large plates of beef and mutton slices, large slices of tripe and lamb tripe, watery cabbage leaves, and crispy radish slices were all put into the hot pot.
A plate of freshly coagulated duck blood on the table was cut into pieces and thrown into the pot.
Blackfish caught from a nearby river are also cut into transparent fillets and slid from the edge of the pot into the boiling soup.
After the ingredients were put into the pot, Haoyue asked everyone to sit down around the hot pot with long chopsticks, and take them out immediately after the ingredients in the pot boiled.
These ingredients are very easy to cook and taste, and you can eat them by taking chopsticks and soaking them in a boiling pot a few times.
The spicy beef and mutton slices are dipped in garlic sesame sauce, which tastes spicy and hot, and the mouth is full of mellow fat aroma.
The white black fish fillet is hung with red soup, and the fishy smell of the fish has been masked by the spicy taste of the hot pot base, and the fish fillet is smooth and tender, numb and spicy, and melts as soon as you sip it.
The crispy hairy belly, every fold is wrapped in red soup, rolled in the sesame sauce ingredients, and hung with mellow sesame sauce.
When you bite into it, the hairy belly is crispy and springy, and the hot and spicy soup with butter and sesame aroma explodes on the tip of the tongue instantly.
There is also the brown duck blood boiled into lumps, which began to tremble with heat as soon as I clamped it with chopsticks.
Dip it into the oil dish, the hot temperature instantly becomes palatable, the duck blood that is full of spicy soup is wrapped in sesame oil, the entrance juice overflows, the fragrance is tender and smooth, it slides down the throat, and instantly warms the stomach.
"Delicious! Delicious! It's so delicious! Gejia's face was flushed when he ate, and he praised again and again: "Beef and mutton can still be eaten like this, it's so delicious!" β
"This way of eating is really novel, interesting and delicious, I also opened my eyes today, what kind of hot pot is really amazing!"
Xu Jingyang was sweating profusely and was full of praise, and after speaking, he scooped up another chopsticks and sliced mutton and put it in his mouth.
Others also have a great appetite and bury their heads around the hot pot to eat special food.
Ah Jiu doesn't eat much meat, he only picks cabbage leaves and fish fillets.
But he seemed to like tahini very much, and he dipped a whole spicy red cabbage leaf in the tahini and then wrapped it in a large mouthful of rice and put it in his mouth, and in a few moments he finished two bowls of tahini.
Haoyue took a large chopstick and put the sliced mutton dripping with soup into her mouth, and then showed a satisfied and happy smile on her face.
Looking out through the curtain of the yurt, the cold wind outside is howling and the ice and snow are in the sky, and the house is steaming and fragrant.
A hot, spicy and fragrant hot pot eats down, instantly driving away the cold around the body, and people only feel warm in their hearts.
People who were eating red and glowing sighed one after another, ah! The hot pot is amazing!
After the meal, Haoyue touched her round belly and enjoyed the snow scene while roasting the fire.
Aunt Qi, who loves cooking, knows that the key to the deliciousness of hot pot is the base material, and with this base material, it is delicious even when it is dipped in the soles of shoes.
So while the seventh aunt was roasting the fire, she asked Haoyue: "Yue'er, do you still have the base material for our hot pot?" β
As soon as Haoyue heard this, she only opened a bag of hot pot base from the blind box, and it was gone after eating.
Seeing Haoyue shaking her head, Aunt Qi felt a little pity: "Alas, after that, if you eat hot pot, won't you be able to eat it again?" I was just thinking that when I go to a new place in the future, I might be able to open a hot pot restaurant to make a living. β
Aunt Qi's words made Haoyue a little moved, but making a hot pot base requires a lot of spices, and in this era, spices are very expensive due to problems such as production and transportation.
"I know the recipe, but the spices needed in the recipe are a big problem," said Haoyue with her hands on her cheeks and a wrinkled face.
There is an ingredient list on the packaging bag of the hot pot base just now, and if you make the base according to the ingredient list, the taste should be very different, but in this era, the spices are expensive, the types are small, and the output is small, so it is estimated that it is difficult to open a store on a large scale.
"Yikes! Still thinking about opening a store? The grassland is so mobile, how do you open a store? β
Xu Jingyang heard the conversation and walked over, stretched out his hand and rubbed Haoyue's little face vigorously: "Also, it's so messy now, if you open a hot pot restaurant, the Qiang people may come when they smell it, and then they will take you away and eat you." β
Xu Jingyang's words are very right, now there are disputes in various places, wars are raging, and the Qiang people are easy to lose heavy losses to the Central Plains and open shops.
Then Xu Jingyang changed his words: "The hot pot restaurant can't be opened, but the hot pot base recipe that I have figured out can be sold." β
When Haoyue heard this, she nodded hurriedly: "It's also a way to get rich. Hmm"
Haoyue's face was ravaged by Xu Jingyang, and she couldn't even speak.
So she opened her mouth and bit at the big hands that were evil, but Xu Jingyang reacted quickly and immediately covered Haoyue's mouth with her backhand.
"Hmm
Haoyue vaguely asked Ah Jiu for help.
But Ah Jiu didn't hear it at all, he was holding his cheeks, looking at the snow in a daze.
Haoyue wanted to ask Shen Yinxing for help, but she looked around and didn't find A-Niang.
The father and daughter quarreled for a while, waited until the firewood was extinguished, and then returned to the tent and fell asleep.
Outside the tent was snowing heavily, but inside the tent was as warm as spring.
In the early morning, when I opened the curtain of the felt bag, I saw a snowy color.
But the snow hasn't stopped, and the goose feathers are still falling from the sky.
The snow on the ground was already very deep, and as far as the eye could see, the white sky was connected, and the sky and the ground shone with a continuous silver light.
Haoyue poked her little head out to look for A-Niang's figure, and she found that Shen Yinxing didn't seem to have returned overnight.
