Lu Feng Shi De Bai Gong Zhu
Yesterday morning when I had nothing to do, I fried a lot of meatballs. Originally, I was thinking of frying the meatballs, but there is no such thing here, but the potato balls are fried with potatoes.
Add chicken and fish, and you have four dishes.I have already planned to make pickled fish and chicken stewed with mushrooms.
Then make a braised pork stew with radish, and mix in some minced garlic and carrots. This is just to relieve the tiredness.
"Mianmian, the chickens are ready." As soon as he finished his work, he heard Chen Enpeng say
"Then go and clean the pot in your house. The chicken pieces will be chopped up soon. You'll be there in a minute." After saying that, he took the chicken in his hand and said
"Okay." When Chen Enpeng was about to turn around after hearing this, he quickly said
"Take the mushrooms in the pot with you, otherwise you can return them later, or someone can take the time to send them over."
"it is good"
After a while, I chopped up the chicken, put it in a basin, found a basket, put the seasonings in it, and went to the isolation. The door was kept open for convenience.
"Chen Enpeng, have you put away the pot?"
“It’s packed up”
"Then light a fire"
"it is good"
"How about you do what you say?"
"Can"
"Okay, first put the chicken into the pot and add water. You don't need to put more water to cover the chicken. After the water boils, just simmer it on low heat. At this time, the two-year-old hen should be stewed for an hour and a half. can.
When the pot is first opened, skim out the blood powder inside, and then add the seasonings. The seasonings include a piece of old ginger, five or six wolfberries, three jujubes, mushrooms, and finally salt. Do you understand? "
"I know, this is not difficult."
"It's really not difficult, just remember it. Let's go back first."
"Go back"
As soon as I entered the house, I heard Chen Junjie's voice: "Mianmian, the fish are ready."
"That's good, put the fish wherever you want, take the basin of radish to your room, and come over with the meat later."
"it is good"
It passed quickly, and the pots on Chen Junjie's stove had been cleared away long ago, so he said: "Let's light the fire."
Then he said: "Braised pork is not difficult. Cut the pork belly into a rectangular shape, about one centimeter wide and two centimeters long. Clean it, put it in a pot with cold water, add ginger scraps and a few green onion slices, and add 2 tablespoons of Remove the fishy smell from the wine and increase the aroma, then cover the pot.
Add seasonings, star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, dried chili peppers, ginger, scallions, rock sugar, chopped green onions, soy sauce, and salt.I have prepared all the seasonings in advance.
You can just release it when the time comes.After a few minutes, you can insert a chopstick into it and it will be cooked through. Then add the radish and simmer over low heat until the radish is cooked through. Then you can take it out of the pot. Do you know? "As he said this, he put the meat into the pot.
"understood"
"That's good, just watch it. If you don't remember something, just shout it."
"Ok"
"Then get back to work"
After returning home, make pickled fish by yourself first, and process the fish first: divide the fish into fish meat and fish bones, then put it into clean water to wash away the blood and reduce the fishy smell.
Then marinate the fish fillets, add some salt, chicken essence, pepper, and wine, then mix well with your hands, then add egg white and mix well.
Then prepare an appropriate amount of sauerkraut and chop it into pieces, prepare green onion slices and shredded ginger, chop the peppers, then put the sauerkraut into the pot and add the scallion slices and ginger shreds, stir fry until cooked, remove and set aside.
Then put it in a casserole,
Pour in the water and boil the pot, then put the fish fillets prepared in advance into the pot, and it will be cooked when the pot is boiled.
Finally, add salt, chicken essence, pepper, and white vinegar and you are ready to eat.
Clean out the big pot again, put the meatballs and potatoes that you made yesterday and put them in the oil again.
Finally, I mixed some minced garlic and shredded carrots and finished it myself. The dishes in the pot that Chen Enpeng and Chen Junjie were watching were also cooked.
The eldest brother also packed up the dumplings and placed them outside the house first.After clearing the Kang table, he said: "Put the dishes on the table and let's start eating."
"Finally we can eat. You don't know. Sitting in front of the pot, I almost starved myself to death." Chen Junjie said embarrassedly.
"Who says it isn't?" Chen Enpeng said
“Eat quickly”
"Yes, eat quickly"
"It's so rich," said Chen Junjie
"It is indeed" Chen Enpeng said
"You two, just be lucky. If the eldest brother hadn't come, you wouldn't have spent so much money."
"Yes, yes, I have to thank you and Brother Shen for having such a rich New Year's Eve dinner," Chen Junjie said.
"Indeed, we have to thank Mianmian and Brother Shen very much," said Chen Enpeng
"Yes, yes, we will toast you two with tea instead of wine."
"cheers"
Everyone chatted while eating.Now everyone was completely familiar with each other, and now the eldest brother asked: "You two heard from Mianmian that you are from Jin City."
"Both of us are from Jin City, what's wrong, brother?"
"Where are you in Jin City?"
“We are from Jinnan District”
"Jinnan District?"
"What's wrong, brother?" Chen Enpeng asked when he saw that Brother Shen had some doubts.
"Then do you know that there is a man named Chen Entai and a man named Chen Junfeng?"
After hearing this, the two people looked at each other in surprise.
At this time, Shen Dong didn't know that these two people must be related to the people he just mentioned, so he said: "There is no need to hide anything here. I swear to the leader that I will never tell anyone."
After hearing this, he quickly said: "Yes, I swear to the leader that I will never tell anyone."
"Brother, Mianmian doesn't have to be like this, there's nothing you can't say."
"Yes, big brother, Mianmian"
"Then let's talk"
"Chen Entai is my eldest brother, 12 years older than me. Chen Junfeng is Jie Zi's eldest brother, 9 years older than him."
"Then why do you go to the countryside?"
"Our Chen family used to be a well-known family in Zaijin City, a big family. Although we are all from the side branch, it cannot be said that our family did not enjoy the treatment of a big family before.
Although we didn’t have much property before liberation, one family owned a grocery store and the other owned a cloth store, but since the spring of this year, people have been coming to our parents one after another, saying that they were capitalists in the past and needed to be investigated.
But they had no evidence in their hands, so they had no choice but to release our parents. However, they also resigned from their original positions and became ordinary workers in the workshop.
The parents of the two families were afraid that something would happen, so they arranged for us to come to the countryside. How come Brother Shen knows my eldest brother and Brother Feng?"
"We know you. Your eldest brother Chen Entai and I are in the same military area now. I am in the third regiment and he is in the same regiment. We usually communicate with each other. Is Junjie's eldest brother Chen Junfeng my college classmate?"
"Brother Shen, aren't you the one my eldest brother often mentioned, the youngest classmate when they were in military school?"
"Indeed, I am the youngest among our batch of military cadets."
"I'll go, we are really our own people"
"Then have you written letters to your family?"
"When I came here, I sent a message of peace to my family. The heavy snowfall
