The Fisherwoman Catches the Sea and Makes a Fortune Verse 64
Only then did the others react, how did Haizhu catch these three sharks?
"The sharks fought with the dolphins, and the dolphins won, and I picked them up what they didn't eat." Haizhu said lightly.
In other words, the two hundred and sixty taels of silver she just got were for nothing? Damn, there is still this kind of good luck!
The sea breeze blowing from the pier is sour.
Haizhu smiled and put the bucket on the wooden cart, and when she saw Mao Xiaoer, she greeted: "Second brother Mao, go to the house to eat stewed shark fin at night." β
"Okay, you leave me a bowl, I'll pay it over."
"I'll be honest, I'll leave you a bowl, you remember the past." Haizhu pushed the old turtle to climb onto the wooden cart, put in the wooden fence, she walked to the boat to look at the shark meat, and finally left only a piece of toothless holes, and the rest fell into the sea.
The onlookers dispersed, and they went to busy their own business after watching the excitement, Haizhu pulled the wooden cart to find the shopkeeper, he was checking the spices he bought, and the quality of the pepper was not as good as the previous batch.
Haizhu went over and sniffed the bark of the tree and asked, "What is this?" β
"Fennel root, the stew is very delicious." The merchant glanced at her.
"Where's this?" Haizhu took another piece of brown wood.
"The root of mountain pepper, when you fry the meat, scrape some foam down, it's very fragrant."
"Let me see what spices you sell?" Haizhu went to see the merchant's goods, if she hadn't happened to meet her, she wouldn't have known that she could use so many seasonings for cooking.
Fennel root, fennel fruit, citronella, mountain pepper, cinnamon bark, mountain pepper root, tangerine peel, cloves, bay leaves, grass fruit, licorice, ......
Haizhu asked the merchants to weigh two catties each, and bought a bundle of lemongrass grass, and after settling the accounts, she was missing fifty-three taels in her hand.
"What's the matter with you coming to me?" Shopkeeper Zhang is still waiting for her.
"I don't know how to deal with shark fins, I wanted to ask you what to do about it." Haizhu said.
Shopkeeper Zhang looked at her with a smile and a word.
Haizhu also smiled and said, "I think there should be a lot of cooks who can handle shark fins, and even the guy who burns the fire has probably seen it." β
"It's not easy to take advantage of you, I can say before, I will sell half of what you catch."
"There aren't many of the left, two families are divided, and I don't have anything to sell." Haizhu shrugged, "If Uncle Zhang is willing to help, I will treat you to shark fin soup at night." β
"Okay, you go back first, I'll go over in the afternoon." The shopkeeper glanced at the wooden cart and pointed: "Go back and boil a pot of boiling water, pour these fins into it and boil them twice, and the shark skin will be scraped clean." β
Haizhu thanked him and dragged the wooden cart home.
Dongzhu and Fengping cut leeks and were choosing them in the yard, when they heard the sound of the car rolling out, "Sister, are you back so soon?" β
"Well, I happened to encounter a dolphin and a shark fighting, I picked up the leak and came back." Haizhu shouted to the sister-in-law and aunt in the alley: "I invited the shopkeeper of Jiubei Restaurant to teach me to stew shark fin, and I want to eat shark fin soup and come over early in the evening." β
None of the people in the alley should be good, and a few people put down their needles and threads and went out to ask their relatives if they could get by.
Haizhu carried the bucket of shark fins to the restaurant next door, the pot was boiling water, and she used a machete to cut off the excess fish on the fins, and the juice in the fish collapsed on her body and smelled terrible.
"The dog peed on it." Chaoping pinched his nose and said angrily.
Dongzhu passed by and laughed.
Haizhu pointed at the little ghost and said, "You just dislike it, don't eat it when I'm ready." β
When Chaoping heard this, he frowned and leaned over, and said against his will that the eldest sister was fragrant.
Now Haizhu couldn't help laughing, she didn't toss the shark meat, she had no appetite when she smelled it, so she didn't waste spices, it was quite expensive.
"Sister, the water is boiling." Feng Ping shouted.
"Here we are." Haizhu put all the fins into the pot of boiling water according to the shopkeeper's explanation, boiled a few times, the black shark skin bloomed, and she scooped it up with a shovel to soak it in cold water.
The fourteen fins in the large wooden basin looked quite impressive, and Haizhu sat cross-legged on the stone with the winter pearl and the wind flat, scraping the black skin with sharp shells. The shark skin is boiled in water, and after scraping off, it looks like algae in the water, and when you touch it, it looks like you are holding a handful of fine sand, which is very granular, and it is estimated that you will have teeth when you chew it.
When the shark skin is scraped off, what is revealed is pale yellow flesh, one by one, like rice noodles that have changed color.
Haizhu threw these shark fins into the pot and boiled them again, boiled them, soaked them in cold water, removed the wing bones, and the rest spread out to look like a plate of vermicelli. The wings on the large dorsal fin are still a little longer, and the wings scraped out of the pelvic and small dorsal fins are about the same length as mung bean sprouts.
Fourteen shark fins are scraped and then deboned, and the rest of the hanging scales are hooked and weighed, weighing four catties and eight taels.
After lunch, the shopkeeper came over, he went into the kitchen to look at it twice, and came out and said, "Go buy a chicken and buy a duck, ask for an old hen and an old duck, don't be too fat, use it for stew." Shark fin can be stewed with ginseng, wolfberry or sea cucumber, or it can be stewed and then boiled in juice. β
He saw that there were a lot of shark fin strips in the basin, and said, "Anyway, you can get these things cheaply, and the amount is a lot, so you can figure out how to make them yourself, and the method of this thing is no different from chicken and duck meat." β
"Is there a difference between stewing and eating?"
Shopkeeper Zhang nodded and said, "Worthy of its high price." β
Chapter 82: The Layman
A chicken and a duck, plucked the feathers, cleaned the contents of the stomach, chopped off the head and put it in an iron pot with water to stew. Dongzhu and Fengping went to study in a private school, and it became Haizhu's business to burn the fire, She burned the fire in the stove, and used the stove to cook the medicine, the smell of meat and the smell of medicine were mixed together, fragrant and bitter, and she smelled a headache.
"Big sisterβ" Shiohei ran in on a stick.
He came just in time, Haizhu took the medicine jar with a rag, carried the stove and put it in the yard, the embers in the pit were shoveled over with a shovel, she beckoned Chaoping to come over, "I'll teach you to light the fire." β
Feng Ping had already taught Chaoping about the fire, and he ran over happily, feeling that his eldest brother was not at home, and this job was his.
"You can't burn a fire, you call me when the fire is out." Haizhu instructed.
Chaoping nodded, patted his chest and promised, "I will burn the fire." β
When the child grew up fast, when he came to Yongning, Chaoping was still stammering when he spoke, but now as long as he doesn't speak fast, he can spit out five or six words at a time.
Haizhu touched his bald head and went into the kitchen to stew meat.
Chicken and duck stew, only two lumps of ginger were thrown into the soup to remove the smell, the soup was boiling, Haizhu opened the lid of the pot and skimmed off the grease, and the soup was still clear at this time. She took out a thick firewood and threw it in a bucket to drown the fire extinguisher, went to the warehouse to get two catties of dried squid and soaked it, and soaked the dried bamboo shoots and dried radishes that she got back from Yu's house before.
"Milk, when Dongzhu gets out of school, you ask her to call my mother and their family to come over, it's not easy to stew shark fin soup, let her come and taste it." Haizhu said.
"Oh, good."
Grandma Qi sat with the soles of her shoes and stared at her little grandson boiling medicine, reminding him from time to time that the fire was too big or it was time to add firewood.
"Milk, don't talk about it...... I know. Chaoping was anxious, "I'll burn the fire!" β
"Okay, okay, I don't intervene."
Haizhu passed by to take a look, she went back and moved the small basket containing the conch, the conch with different patterns is stacked together to look good, she wants to drill a small eye out of the string to hang on the boat.
The sea breeze blows the conch, and the sound is specified to be crisp and pleasant.
The sun was setting in the west, and the shade covered half of the yard, and the sea breeze stirred the dried seagrass on the roof, and the stiff seaweed swayed and made a muffled clattering sound.
The rich aroma of meat wafted out of the kitchen, the broth thickened, and the skin of the chicken and duck was simmered soft and shiny in the gurgling broth. Haizhu poured all the shark fin strips into it, covered the pot and continued to simmer.
Qi Laosan got the advice, and he came back from fishing without waiting for the sun to set, and when he got home, he first moved out the tables and chairs and put them in the yard, and the baskets containing porcelain bowls and plates were also moved out, and they had to be washed again before use.
"What are you doing with your teeth bared?" He asked Haizhu.
"I just drank the medicine, and I died of bad drinking, and my milk still didn't let me rinse my mouth." Haizhu gulped a few times of saliva, went into the warehouse and grabbed a handful of red dates and chewed under the eaves of the station.
Shopkeeper Li had to take a leisurely walk, he stood at the door and said, "Smell right, this stew is already delicious." β
"Just stewed out of the gum, it is estimated that it will take a lot of time." Haizhu said.
"After the stew is out of the gum, you can add ginseng and wolfberry, have you bought ginseng? Shark fin is precious, and it is rare to stew it once, so I will get it in the direction of the most supplement. β
Haizhu has red ginseng, which was sent by Han Ji last year, and she used it to stew chicken soup twice. She went back to the house and took two, washed off the mud and ash, cut them into slices and threw them into the pot.
After boiling for two more boils, she scooped the soup into the crockpot and threw the soaked dried squid into it to cook.
Chaoping saw her come out with a crockpot again, let out a long breath, and walked over to wait for the fire to be burned.
"You go out and play, I won't let you burn the fire." Haizhu laughed, "Your second sister and eldest brother are about to get out of school, you go and pick them up." β
Grandma Qi put down a shoe and went over to light the fire, "Do you still get this at night?" β
"Well, be a head-to-head and coax a mouthful."
There is a fragrance inside and outside the house, and people passing by in the alley probe in from time to time to take a look, and when they see that the food is not ready, they all go out of the alley to the street or to talk to relatives, and they can't stand it when they sit at home, and all they think about is food.
Dongzhu and Fengping got out of school, and the sisters and brothers ran back as soon as they slipped away, and shouted when they entered the house: "Sister, Uncle Shen asked you to leave a private room for her, and she and her sisters-in-law came to eat shark fin soup at night." β
"Okay, got it. Fengping, you come and watch the fire for me, and I'll go buy some food on the street. Haizhu took off her apron, and she was waiting for Feng Ping to come back.
The restaurant on the street was also preparing meals, and the vendors selling firewood and vegetables were shouting around with carts, and Haizhu called out to a person who was selling tofu, "Where did you buy this tofu from?" β
"Mrs. Yao's family, she is a veteran of ordering tofu, and her tofu is the most delicious in the whole dock, tender but not scattered, and she is not afraid of breaking it when cooked."
"Bring me five pieces, and take ten pieces of bean skin." Haizhu took out his purse, saw him uncover the board, and there were soybean sprouts in the basket, and said, "Weigh me three catties of soybean sprouts again." β
"Okay."
bought tofu sprouts, and Haizhu went to pick ten catties of cabbage sum and asked people to send it to her home.
"Girl, do you want to buy sea grapes? It's all washed. A grandmother with a basket shouted to her, and Haizhu saw that the old lady was older than Grandma Qi, so she glanced into the basket and bought it for thirty wen.
On the way back, they met the neighbors, and they asked when they could come over for dinner, "Is the shark fin soup enough?" I'm going to bring a whole family of relatives with me. β
"Enough, a big pot of stew."
When Haizhu went back, he asked Dongzhu to go to the rice steaming rice, and the soup was of course the best with rice.
"Did you go tell my mother?" She asked.
"Yes, she said she would come when the man came back."
Haizhu glared at her, and Dongzhu stuck out her tongue and ran away.
The chicken and duck meat have been stewed and deboned, and the chopsticks are inserted and picked, and suddenly the skin is opened, and Haizhu takes a spoon and scoops it up before transferring it to a wooden basin.
"Chaoping, come and nibble on the chicken legs." Haizhu shouted, two chicken legs Chaoping and Fengping one person, two chicken wings are her and Dongzhu's, and the duck legs and duck wings are Qi Grandma and her two sons.
After simmering all afternoon, the aroma of the meat has been stewed into the soup, and the meat has not tasted much except for being soft and rotten.
The shark fin soup has thickened, and the shark fin has been stewed with gum, like a stewed rake of beef tendon, and I want to suck it when I look at it.
"There is no need to burn the fire under the stove, as long as there is a spark, and the firewood is moved to the second stove hole." Haizhu instructed Fengping, she took the cabbage sum out to wash, and then asked Chaoping, who was full of oil, to go to Shen's house to call someone, "Just say that the meal is ready, let the aunt come over when the shark fin soup is the best." β
The cabbage sum is blanched and used for plating, and it can be scaled when the guests come. Haizhu first cut the soaked dried radish and dried bamboo shoots into thin slices, rinsed the sea grapes twice, and then heated the oil seasoning sauce and mixed the sea grapes, blanched part of the soybean sprouts, and mixed them in the cold sea grapes.
"Dongzhu, is the meal ready?" The people in the alley asked, "The sun has set." β
"Okay, okay, the rice has just been steamed, and the shark fin soup is cooked." Dongzhu ran in and shouted, "Sister, the rice is steamed." β
"Shout at the people in the alley." Haizhu said.
