Chapter 184 Catch mutton

The barbecued meat only accounts for one-fifth of the whole sheep, and most of it is stewed in the barrel.

Stewing and grilling are the best ways to enjoy the ultimate deliciousness of mutton.

The Yanchitan sheep of Ning Province, which is also one of the three most famous sheep in China, is presented in the form of stewed hand meat, and the taste is equally excellent.

The Luobu sheep that Li Yi bought this time are all lambs, and are called unmarried sheep in the Western Regions.

The lamb meat is more tender, so after cooking for an hour, it is already very tender.

In order to maintain the temperature in the soup bucket, Li Yi did not open the lid during the entire stewing process.

By the time all the meat skewers are grilled and distributed, the time has come for all the mutton in the bucket.

Li Yi put on a pair of insulated gloves and came to the soup bucket.

Liu Yifei and the others were not satisfied with the skewers, so when they saw Li Yi was about to stew mutton, they trotted over and followed.

"Be careful, don't burn it."

Li Yi reminded him and opened the lid.

When the lid is opened, a burst of steam rises, carrying the delicious aroma of mutton, and turns into a white mushroom cloud that spreads.

"Wow! It smells so good!"

Liu Yifei and Zhao Jinmai praised in unison, and Zhao Jinmai even swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva.

She only ate one skewer of the barbecue just now, but Li Yi wouldn't let her eat it.

Li Yi said that mutton is a hairy food and she was drinking herbal tea. It was not recommended for her to eat too much mutton.

But she had just tasted such delicious mutton, how could she possibly be able to endure it?

Smelling the aroma of mutton in the soup bucket, she asked Li Yi: "Brother Yi, can I have some of this stewed mutton?"

Li Yi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's best not to give it up. Just wait until your throat gets better before you eat it!"

"Please, Brother Yi, I'll just eat a small piece and drink some soup."

Zhao Jinmai clasped his hands together and begged Li Yi for mercy.

Li Yi sighed: "Mutton is a fat food, haven't I already made you eat a bunch of mutton skewers? I'll fry you some soy sauce fried rice later, and when your throat gets better, I'll make a special meal of mutton for you.

Fine?"

"Huh huh huh~"

Zhao Jinmai curled her lips in grievance, turned around and put her arms around Liu Yifei's neck, moaning and pretending to cry: "Sister Yifei, Brother Yi won't give me meat to eat."

Liu Yifei patted her cheek and said with a smile: "It's okay, you can watch us eat later."

"..."

Zhao Jinmai looked at her speechlessly, then looked up to the sky and sighed: "The world is so hot and cold!"

Listening to them talking and laughing, Li Yi had already fished out a whole mutton chop from the bucket.

First, use a knife to cut open the ribs one by one along the gaps between the ribs.

Then Li Yi took out the bone-cutting knife that had just been used to separate the bones, and cut down the gaps one by one.

The sharp bone-chopping knife easily chopped the lamb chops into ribs one by one, revealing the beautiful cross-section.

The chopped lamb chops are red in color, covered with a thin and even layer of tender oil, and white crispy bones can be seen at the top.

Li Yi placed the lamb chops on the tray, then took out a bag of coarse salt, added a spoonful of broth to dissolve, and poured it on the lamb chops.

When cooking the meat, Li Yi did not put too much salt.

Adding too much salt will cause the osmotic pressure to change, causing too much water in the meat to analyze, causing the meat to become too old.

Therefore, when the local old herdsmen in the Western Regions cook mutton, they usually only put a little salt to give it a bottom. After it is out of the pot, they add salt water to add enough salt flavor.

This can maintain the tenderness and flavor of the meat to the greatest extent.

He casually chopped a white onion, cut it into thin strips, and sprinkled it on the lamb chops. Li Yi said, "It's ready to eat."

Holding chopsticks and a bowl, Wu Lei came over and stretched his neck to look at the mutton chops on the tray: "Hahaha! Big mutton chops!"

"Do you still want to eat?" Li Yixiao asked, "Did your calories exceed the standard today?"

"It's okay if you just eat meat. The worst thing you can do is run for an extra hour."

Wu Lei chuckled and stretched out the bowl.

Li Yi smiled and shook his head. This guy has completely given up on his bottom line.

But he wasn't the only one, Huang Xiaoming was also lining up behind with a bowl in his hands.

After picking up one for Wu Lei, Li Yicheng asked Huang Xiaoming behind him: "Do you want one or two?"

"I want two!"

Huang Xiaoming stared at the fat and tender lamb chops and said with a smile: "You can't eat such good lamb every day. Of course you have to enjoy it."

After hearing his words, Wu Lei, who was about to walk away, suddenly stretched out the bowl again: "I want two too!"

When Li Yi saw this, he took another one and gave it to him.

Holding a bowl with two mutton chops in his hands, Wu Lei came to the side happily.

Master Cai came closer and took a close-up of the lamb chops.

"Look! How is it? Do you have an appetite?"

Wu Lei showed off his mutton chops to the camera.

But the audience in the live broadcast room looked at the light color of the lamb chops and had doubts.

"Is it really boiled mutton? No sauce?"

"The color looks so bland! Can this be delicious?"

"You're not going to just eat it like this, are you? Why don't you have some garlic sauce with it?"

"No, looking at it like this, I really have no appetite."

Seeing the questioning comments from the audience, Wu Lei's eyes widened: "You actually think it doesn't taste good? Do you know how fragrant this mutton smells? Oh... I'm sorry, I forgot that you can't smell it."

After hearing his words, the barrage was filled with ellipses.

"..."

"It hurts my heart, old man."

"It's boring for you to say this! We also want to smell it!"

"I suggest you make a garlic sauce, cut some minced garlic, add some soy sauce, vinegar, and some sesame oil. It will definitely taste better than this clear soup with less water."

Seeing the audience's suggestion, Wu Lei was also shaken. He turned back to Li Yi and asked: "Brother Yi, do you want to eat it with some dipping sauce?"

"Need not."

Li Yi didn't even raise his head: "You will know after one taste. This medium-quality mutton does not need any seasoning to enhance its color. It is delicious enough just by its own meat quality."

Hearing what he said, Wu Lei felt relieved and said to the camera, "I'll try it first." He lowered his head, pinched the lamb ribs, and tore off a piece of rib meat from the top.

The fat and tender mutton burst into the mouth with a rich milky fragrance. After chewing it twice, Wu Lei narrowed his eyes and sighed as if he had been hit in the heart.

"What's wrong?"

Huang Xiaoming also received the mutton chops and came to him.

"I kind of want to cry."

Wu Lei raised his head and sighed: "This mutton is so delicious!"

Seeing his exaggerated expression, the audience in the live broadcast room were a little suspicious.

"Really? Are you playing us?"

"It looks like just boiled meat, how can it be so delicious?"

Wu Lei looked at their barrage and said seriously: "I really didn't lie to you, this meat is really delicious! This is also the first time I have eaten such good mutton. It's just like Brother Yi said, this meat

It’s so good, it doesn’t need any seasoning at all, it’s just fragrant enough just by its own taste!”

Huang Xiaoming watched him interact with the audience, without speaking, and lowered his head to take a bite of the mutton.

Then, his pupils dilated slightly, and he couldn't help blurting out: "Fuck!"

Hearing his voice, Wu Lei turned around to look at him and asked with a smile: "Really? Brother Xiao Ming?"

Huang Xiaoming looked at the mutton in his hand, shocked and puzzled: "How can meat cooked in plain water be so delicious?"

Hearing their exclamations, Li Yi looked back at them and said with a smile: "Anywhere where mutton is abundant, only the best and freshest mutton can be used to make hand-caught mutton. This is the easiest and most delicious mutton."

Top notch way to eat.”
