Chapter 108: The Old Objects That Disappeared
When I came to Boss Zhang's restaurant, I saw that Boss Zhang had just come back with a small cart.
Li Jing and the monkey quickly stepped forward to say hello, and helped take the things on the small cart down: "Uncle Zhang, what have you bought, so much?" ”
The relationship between the four of them became much closer last night, so Boss Zhang was not polite, but was happy that the two of them started together.
Boss Zhang wiped the sweat from his head: "Hey! It's some pigs that others don't want to go into the water, I'm used to it, it's a pity to look at it, I just packed it and got it back, the owner of the butcher shop is also half sold and half sent, and I bought a barrel of soybean oil and chili noodles today, not to say that I tried oil chili pepper today! ”
"Hey, such a big pot, the butcher shop owner won't deal with it!" The monkey saw the bottom pot of pigs going into the water, and pouted in disgust!
"Processing? They all found a place to bury them! Boss Zhang was busy unloading the car and replied without looking back.
Li Jing watched a pot of pigs go into the water, stretched out his hand and retracted it again: "This is too disgusting, blood is wheezing!" ”
"Haha, it's ugly, but it's delicious, didn't you eat hard yesterday?" Boss Zhang was also used to it, so he stretched out his hand and took it down.
The monkey looked around: "Aunt Tao hasn't come yet?" ”
"It's estimated that it's going to be soon, and she still needs to clean up at home, and she usually comes over later!"
"Oh, Uncle Zhang, what do you think we can do to help? Tell me! ”
"It's nothing, or I'll teach you how to deal with pigs?"
"No, I'm not going to do that!" Li Jing looked disgusted.
Instead, the monkey expressed interest and was a little eager to try!
"Then, Xiao Li, you can help build the stove, and you can use it to make oil chili peppers later!"
"Okay, I'm familiar with this!"
Watching the monkey farts follow Boss Zhang, went to the hand-pressed water well next to him, the two of them were busy working around the hand-pressed well, Li Jing looked at the itchy hands, and really wanted to try, I remember that every family used to have it, and I haven't played it for a long time.
The well needs to be diverted, the water outlet is covered with your hands, the water is filled through the piston, and then the handle is pressed, the piston is filled with water, and the air in the water pipe is emptied, and the pressure can be used to pump out the groundwater.
Li Jing's eyes were hot, but he still refused to admit defeat in his mouth: "A guy who doesn't have a heart at all, what's so fun about dealing with internal organs, and there's less to see on the battlefield?" Play with fire...... It is the choice of high-end players! ”
In front of Li Jing was a small iron stove, the hearth was a little larger than that honeycomb coal stove, and the stove at this stage burned briquettes, which was quite convenient to use.
Briquettes are not coal, but pulverized coal according to a certain proportion of loess and water, fully mixed and stirred into a paste or paste, made into a suitable size of briquettes or briquettes, after drying, can be stored for a long time.
When he was a child, Li Jing made briquettes, which was more interesting, but later it was slowly replaced by honeycomb coal.
It is difficult for people who do not know how to make a fire to light a fire at one time, stuff the stove with flammable dead grass, and stuff it into small pieces of firewood after ignition, first small and then large, make sure that the firewood is ignited, put it in the briquettes, and wait for the firewood to ignite the briquettes!
As the briquettes were put in, a thick smoke came out of the hearth, and Li Jing hurriedly took a few steps back, so much that tears came down.
It seems very simple, but novices often find that when the firewood under them is burned out, the briquettes on it are not ignited, and they have no choice but to start over.
When he was a child, Li Jing and the monkey were naughty, using the useless iron canned food box at home, they made a small stove by themselves, and ran to the village drying field to test it excitedly, but the haystack on the drying field did not let go, and the firewood of the whole village for half a year was burned by a fire, and the fire burned for several days......
Half of the fire was lit, Aunt Tao was late, and as soon as they met, they looked at the dark circles under Li Jing and the monkey's faces, and counted the two of them vigorously: "Did you go out to be a thief last night?" Why didn't they look like they were awake! ”
The monkey looks like a thief, and he is struggling!
Li Jing thought to himself: It's not good! It was the monkey who became a thief in the middle of the night, mainly labor, and he was at most a thief who was affected by misfortune, and he was tired!
"Look at you, you're as thin as a monkey, no wonder you can't eat more when you have a nickname called Monkey?" Aunt Tao will be fine for a while, with one hand on her waist, pointing at the monkey and nagging!
Li Jing secretly complained: Aunt Tao, are you sorry? If you were a child, you said this about monkeys, everyone had nothing to say, after all, at that time, the thin ones were the same as the hemp sticks, and it was a compliment to say that the monkeys were all praised, and now this monkey has a tendency to develop horizontally, and it is a bit ......
Thanks to the monkey, I almost recognized Aunt Tao as my godmother yesterday, is it the same for all mothers in the world! There is a kind of thinness, which makes your mother think you are thin, and there is a kind of coldness, which makes your mother think you are cold......
Seeing that Aunt Tao glanced at herself a few times, and the war was likely to burn to her side, Li Jing hurriedly diverted Aunt Tao's attention: "Hey! Aunt Tao, the fire in the stove seems to have risen! ”
This time it diverted Aunt Tao's attention, and she walked over and stretched out her head to take a look: "Well, it's good!" ”
The monkey couldn't help wiping a handful of sweat next to him, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, thanking the stove god for saving his life, and hoping that the stove god would be prosperous, prosperous, and lucky......
Seeing Aunt Tao looking at the stove in a daze, Li Jing couldn't help reminding: "Aunt Tao? Aunt Tao! ”
"Huh? What's wrong? ”
"Uh, let's try?"
When it came to the end, Aunt Tao hesitated a little: "That...... Try? ”
"Let's get a little less and try it first!" Li Jing made a small suggestion.
"Good! Try it! Aunt Tao made up her mind.
The next step was to prepare, and the stove was lifted back a little, but it was still placed in front of the restaurant.
A large iron pot, a frying spoon, a large bucket of soybean oil, a large bag of chili noodles, raw peanuts, sugar, salt, pepper (there is no five-spice powder, so pepper is used instead), green onions, ginger and garlic, star anise pepper or something, all kinds of spiced ingredients have to take what, the two of them are very busy.
At this time, Boss Zhang and the monkey also put down the pig in their hands and went into the water, and came to see the excitement.
How to do it, it was discussed yesterday, Aunt Tao has done it in China before, but there are a lot of things missing here, so it's a new attempt.
First of all, you have to fry the peanuts, this job can't be done by ordinary people, if you can't grasp the heat, either it is not crispy or fried, this has to be done by Aunt Tao herself, which is a trivial matter for her.
Originally, it should be better to use tempeh, and it should be called dry sauce beans and dried preserved beans made at home in the north of the sky, but it is not as convenient as in China, and under the strong recommendation of Li Jing and the monkeys, fried peanuts were used instead.
Fry the peanuts and put them aside for later use, this thing has to be cold to be delicious, the taste is soft and fluffy when it is just out of the pot, and it is crunchy and fragrant after it is cold.
Aunt Tao has worked hard for a while, and she has whitened the three people around her several times with her white eyes, but she still can't stop the three gluttonous ghosts, and secretly grab a small handful, that incense!
