Chapter 80 Meng Family New Year's Eve Dinner
Xue Nianzhi could not get what he wanted until evening to meet the cook Wangyue and her two little apprentices.
The people of the Xue family were quick to deal with. Before the sun set, they had completely renovated the original Lu House and the Xue family. Two big red lanterns were lit up, reflecting the word Xue House on the plaque red. The new family was prosperous at the beginning of the new year.
Old Mrs. Meng said, "Nianzhi, if you are willing to accompany me, the old woman, you will go back after eating at night."
"Then I'd rather obey my orders than respect and continue to bother you." Xue Nianzhi said with a blessed body and smiled.
The Xue family finished cleaning before sunset, but the New Year's Eve dinner had not started yet. The servants didn't care about it, so they couldn't let the girl give in. So Meng Qianxiu came up with this policy and brought the person back.
Xue Nianzhi Bingxue is smart and can definitely make the old lady happy. The old lady has heard of her life experience and will definitely keep her.
As expected.
Meng Qianxiu and Xue Nianzhi both breathed a sigh of relief.
In the kitchen, after the lunch banquet, everyone invited the auntie who had paid for the short-term worker from Xiaosui, they went home on their own. The kitchen was empty, leaving only the three masters and apprentices of Wangyue.
Wangyue was quite happy: "Now there are only three of us left. Finally, I'll take a break first. I'll make some food for you, and then there's a tough battle to eat physical strength in the evening. Yaozhu, can you do it?"
A Yao nodded vigorously: "I can do it! Master Wangyue, I'll help you, what do I want to do?"
"I'll come too." Bird's nest rolled up and put down her sleeves that had not been long.
Wangyue was relieved and held bird's nest and A Yao in her arms and rubbed it around: "Why is my apprentice so sensible?"
A Yao shoveled the rice and the crust was not much. The portion of a bowl was just right. Bird's nest was responsible for mixing osmanthus honey water. Heat the oil, and the crust was put into six-point cooked oil, squeaking, and the bottom surface slowly became crisp. A Yao broke the firewood next to the stove and stuffed it into the stove, and went to visit the crust of the moon frying pan.
"Fry the crust in oil, pour osmanthus honey water as a snack, and then I will make Bazhen noodles, and the ingredients are all ready. We will also eat Bazhen noodles tonight, and we will make a big meal for you when we go back."
The crust was placed on bamboo paper to absorb oil. A Yao took the opportunity to hold a coarse porcelain seasoning pot, stretched out her hand and sprinkled it on the surface of the crust.
"Senior sister, I fryed the salt and pepper without adding ****, it tastes good as salty."
"Well, give me some."
The two little men crunched the crumbs. The salty and crispy taste became more and more hungry. She and the bird's nest were one on the left and the right, looking at the last few crumbs, they consciously put aside their eyes. It was left for Wangyue. Compared to the two of them, Wangyue was the hardest one.
The soup tastes strong, the noodles are chewy, and the noodles are drunk cleanly with the soup. A Yao even felt that she could have another bowl, so clean that it seemed to have been washed.
Grind the meat glutinous rice, fish and shrimp, mix it into fine powder and mix it into flour, add fresh bamboo shoots, fragrant mushrooms and eggs, add sesame chips and pepper, knead the dough into a dough, and cut it into fine noodles. This is the Batangerine noodles. It is so delicious that it almost swallows your tongue. How can it be so delicious!
"Master Wangyue, why do you need to dry the chicken, fish and shrimp glutinous rice?" A Yao was full and remembered that during the process of Wangyue, she used fresh shrimp and fish glutinous rice that she had started to dry a few days ago.
"Fresh meat is not easy to remove all the oil. The flour will dissipate when it encounters oil and cannot be cooked into noodles. Therefore, the fresh juice does not use broth, but uses bamboo shoots, mushrooms and shrimp sauce to make it."
After eating Bazhen noodles, my happiness was exhausted and exhausted. After resting for a while, I had to start working on the New Year’s Eve dinner. If it was like a great enemy at noon, then the night was the time for the two armies to confront each other and test their true skills.
There are only three people who use the New Year’s Eve dinner in the Meng family, but they must be extra careful.
Anle vegetable is actually a mixed fruit and vegetable soup, made of air-dried eggplant stems and cut into shreds of carrots. You must taste it before formal meals. The vegetable soup tastes light and long, and it is the meaning of "those who do not think that poverty is always happy."
Next are ten non-repellent fruit and vegetable pickles, including water celery, green vegetables, soybean sprouts, shredded bamboo shoots, dried tofu, lotus root, water chestnut, daylily, mushrooms, and black fungus. They are fried in a glass shallow-shaped bowl, red, yellow, white and green, which makes people's index fingers tremble.
The rosy eel paste, ginger lung soup, knife fish wontons, pine nut cherry meat, three pieces, and eight treasure noodles are served one after another.
Wangyue in the kitchen did not forget to teach her two apprentices. After listening silently, Xiaosui kept it in mind and brought it to the dining room, uncovered the lid of the casserole, and the milky white soup churned in the pot, and the fragrance was everywhere. The old lady couldn't help but put a few pieces of chopsticks while it was hot.
There were a few dishes on the table, Xue Nianzhi had never seen before, and Xiaosui had not signed up for the dish. She couldn't help but ask.
"Three pieces are all chickens, all ducks, and all hoofs. I chose the three yellow chickens in Luxiang, Loumen Ma duck and black-haired pigs. I used chicken bones, meat bones, ham, etc. to hang them out of the broth, put them in a flat tip, blanch them in water and simmer them until they are crispy. Old lady, how many pieces can you eat." Xiaosui did not forget to remind Mrs. Meng.
"Oh." Mrs. Meng agreed with a smile, and silently picked up another piece, like a cheating child.
"It's the first time I have eaten some of them, like the three pieces of soup. Some of them have never been seen even in the capital before." Xue Nianzhi said softly.
Mrs. Meng disagreed: "Three pieces are the finale of every household in this area during festivals. It's not uncommon. Instead, this soup is a rare thing, so you have to try it more."
She pointed to the saury lung soup.
The clear soup is filled with fat and tender fish meat, decorated with green pea seedlings, served in a green bowl, placed between the meat dishes with thick oil and red sauce, surrounded by stars, and the vision alone is enough to attract attention and relieve greasiness.
"The soup is delicious... is it rare to use ingredients?" Xue Nianzhi was confused.
Meng Qianxiu thought about it several times, and after understanding it, he couldn't help but feel distressed. It's really rare. Drinking soup is like drinking money, how can it not be rare!
"The meat of the spotted fish is extremely sweet and tender, and the cod liver is as plump as cheese. A dish of turtle lung soup requires slicing of the fish liver of twenty fish in batches, and the boneless meat under the fins, and simmering it with ham and vegetable hearts." Mrs. Meng explained.
Xue Nianzhi was not very impressed by money, but when he saw that there was not much fish in the saury lung soup, he thought about the twenty-two fish and there were no other fish dishes on the table, so he asked more about the whereabouts of the fish.
"Of course I will abandon it."
The voice came from outside the door, and Xue Nianzhi turned his head, and the neatly-looking young woman came slowly. Even though she was used to seeing the beauty, she was stunned.
Thinking about what she said again, I couldn't help but be stunned by the woman's waste of luxury.
Looking at the moon, I was blessed with Mrs. Meng. A Yao and the bird's nest followed behind me were as follows.
After all the dishes were served, Wang Yue changed her clothes, dressed herself up, and changed her clothes to A Yao and the bird's nest. After calculating the time, she came to pay a visit to Mrs. Meng with her face facing the sky.
"Old lady, is this New Year's Eve dinner quite satisfactory?"
