Chapter 044: Bad mood, suddenly cloudy and sunny
Lin Xiaoman compared the size, Lin Dawu built two barbecue grills, one large and one small, one roast chicken, and lamb leg and lamb chops, and one lamb skewers and vegetable skewers.
After the bricking is done, the inside is burned with firewood and dried.
The sheep and chickens over there were all done, Lin Xiaoman cut the whole chicken from the belly, the back was not chopped, smeared with the marinade that melted with water, and when the marinade was done, it could be skewered with wicker and roasted on the fire.
She hadn't eaten this Orleans-style roast chicken, but she had eaten the roast chicken neck, and the taste was sweet and spicy.
After doing a good demonstration, let Shen Guihua get started, Shen Guihua is also used to work, and she does it well.
The lamb suitable for barbecue is cut into pieces, salt and five-spice powder are added, and some mutton fat pieces are skewered on bamboo skewers.
The leg of lamb and lamb chops are also marinated with salt and five-spice powder, and the chicken is grilled on the stove after it is finished.
Lin Xiaoman didn't care about the head and hooves and internal organs, Lin Dawu asked people to clean up and put the mutton bones in the cauldron, Lu Jin and his party didn't eat these, they could keep them for the people who helped.
Not long after, the smell of meat wafted from the courtyard of Lin Daqiang's house.
Waiting for the fish to be sent over, Lin Xiaoman asked the second grandmother and Hao to continue to skewer meatballs, and she began to teach Shen Guihua and Lin Xiangxing to roast chicken.
Two forks were inserted on both sides of the oven and the wicker skewer rack was turned on it.
Every once in a while, I have to brush a little bit of chicken fat that has been taken from the chicken, and the smell is simply fragrant.
Lu Jin has been inspecting various villages and towns in the county in the past few days, and he can't always let Qingshu go back to the county seat to buy food, even if it is the best food in the people's homes, it makes it difficult for him to swallow.
Therefore, when he learned that the Hedong Village he was going to inspect today was the village where Lin Xiaoman lived, he was full of expectations. asked Qingshu to go to the hot pot chicken restaurant to call Lin Xiaoman, who knew that she didn't go to the store today, and just called Lin Daqiang, the patriarch of Hedong Village, lest he have to send someone into the city to find him when he arrives in the village.
Recently, he has eaten too much chicken, and he wants to try the fish made by Lin Xiaoman, but the girl doesn't know if he really doesn't understand, or pretends not to understand, anyway, he was in a bad mood last morning.
And when he was about to return to Lin Daqiang's house, he suddenly became cloudy and clear.
"What's up ahead? So fragrant? ”
Lin Daqiang smiled honestly, "Back to my lord, I don't know, it's all my niece who made it herself." ”
Lu Jin ran briskly in the direction where the fragrance came from, and everyone behind him looked at each other, all worried that there was no one in their village who could handle the cooking, how could they entertain the small county order in the future?
Lin Xiaoman had already gotten the news here, and he was in full swing to put all the ingredients on the oven.
When the group was allowed into the house, there were already two tables in the house, one table for Lu Jin and the accompanying squires, and one table for Qingshu and the officials.
After a while, roast chicken and mutton skewers were served, and Shen Guihua's mother and daughter were still clumsily roasting.
With a snorting sound, the hot oil was poured on the minced garlic and chili peppers, and Lin Xiaoman's boiled fish was also out of the pot.
Lu Jin has never eaten like this when he is so old, looking at the not too good-looking leg of mutton, lamb chops, meat skewers and roast chicken on the table, he didn't know what to do for a while, and it was Lin Dawu's turn to play after Lin Xiaoman had taught him how to eat.
"My lord, you can eat the meat skewers, the boiled fish is hot oil, it's a little hot, this roast chicken is my niece's exclusive secret method, adults can taste it?"
As he spoke, he took a torn chicken leg and put it in Lu Jin's bowl.
Lu Jin picked it up and tasted it, and raised his eyebrows, "This taste is a novelty, everyone should try it too." ”
When everyone saw him eating, they also reserved a dish with chopsticks, but the entrance was even more surprised than Lu Jin, this is just a novelty, it is simply a delicacy in the world.
If it weren't for the fact that they didn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Lu Jin, they would all be eager to use the whirlwind chopsticks.
Lu Jin has no scruples, eats fish and skewers, but his appearance is more elegant than others, which is probably because people look good and do everything that is pleasing to the eye.
Qingshu came in from outside, and brought a platter of roasted beans, roasted mushrooms, roasted leeks, and roasted cabbage in his hand, and put it in front of Lu Jin, Lu Jin looked disgusted, and waved his hand and said, "Take it!" Take! ”
Qingshu whispered: "This is the little shopkeeper specially roasted for the master, she said that the meat is eaten too much, and the master is on fire, so let the master eat more vegetables." ”
Lu Jin's hand-waving movement stopped in mid-air, and he struggled for a moment before taking the plate of roasted vegetables, and reluctantly took a bunch of roasted shiitake mushrooms and put it in his mouth.
The entrance is a special aroma, Lu Jin's eyebrows and eyes immediately stretched, and he couldn't see half a reluctance, and then tasted the rest, although the taste was different, they were all delicious.
However, he still prefers to eat meat, and women should love this kind of grilled vegetables more.
There is also the one who is obviously thick in red sauce, but he has to call it boiled fish, which is so spicy that it makes people sweat, but he can't help but eat three bowls one after another.
The food inside was in full swing, and Lin Dawu came out from time to time to convey the battle situation inside.
Lin Xiaoman outside was not idle, in addition to adding vegetables to the inside, he would also bake some for himself.
Lin Xiaoman's roasted honey steamed buns and grilled vegetables have been well received by women, while men prefer to eat barbecue, although they are all leftovers, but no one will dislike bad meat.
Qingshu didn't go into the house to eat, moved a bench and sat opposite Lin Xiaoman, and helped her bake it together while eating.
While eating, he praised Lin Xiaoman, praising in different ways, and Lin Xiaoman, who was boasting, just wanted to find a hole to get into, and in the end he could only stuff Qingshu with strings in his hand one after another, just hoping that the food would block his mouth.
The barbecue was almost eaten, and Lin Dawu brought someone a large pot of mutton and haggis soup to send in. Lin Xiaoman added chopped green onions, coriander, and a handful of chili noodles to it, and asked Lin Dawu to bring a bowl of vinegar into it.
After eating and drinking, Lu Jin went out satisfied, followed by a group of people with round bellies.
When passing by Lin Xiaoman's side, Lu Jin bowed slightly to her again, "The little shopkeeper has good cooking skills, have you ever thought about selling boiled fish and meat skewers in the city?" ”
Lin Xiaoman also replied with a smile, "I haven't thought about boiled fish for the time being, my aunt will go to the city to sell meat skewers in a few days, and I have to make the county order to come to support it." ”
"Very good! Very good! Lu Jin was even more satisfied this time, and his eyebrows and eyes were dyed with a smile, "In the future, the little shopkeeper will come up with delicious food, and I hope that I don't forget the official." ”
"It must be certain, I will personally send it to the county government when the time comes."
Lu Jin gave Lin Xiaoman a 'you are very good' look, and then stepped out of the courtyard of Lin Daqiang's house.
Qingshu walked behind, and handed Lin Daqiang an ingot of official silver before going out, "Thank you Patriarch Lin for your hospitality today, this is the money I am waiting for today's meal." ”
How dare Lin Daqiang accept it? Hurriedly excused himself: "What is this?" It is the honor of our village for adults to come to our village, how can we have a meal and pay back? No, no, I can't ask for it. ”
Qingshu stubbornly threw it into his arms, "My master is not such a corrupt official, how can there be a reason not to give money to eat at people's homes?" If you don't accept it, you want to trap my master in unkindness. ”
Lin Daqiang dared to push it back, looking at the official silver of five taels of ingots, he was also greedy, and he gritted his teeth and accepted the silver.
