Chapter 19 Wild Sans Pepper
I'm going to dig some wild vegetables around to see if there's anything else to eat. Is Tianbao going?"
"I want to go." Tianbao was very curious about the surroundings, but his sister didn't say anything, and he didn't dare to go, for fear of not being safe.
When Wang Dayi left, he said he would come back at noon, and it was still early. So he went around to see if there were any wild vegetables, mushrooms, etc. and also to familiarize himself with the environment.
Yang Xu and Tianbao went out with their backpacks on their backs. They didn't dare to go far, so they just looked around.
Villagers will also dig wild vegetables in the mountains, but most of us plant vegetable gardens, and there are quite a lot of wild vegetables in the mountains.
"Sister, can you eat this?"
"Okay." Yang Xu and Tianbao told them which kinds of food they could eat. They dug them up and put them in their backpacks.
Yang Xu also found a few wild mountain peppers. Yang Xu likes spicy food, but when she came here she found that no one had peppers, and she was so greedy.
So I carefully dug up a few roots, wrapped them with soil, put them in a basket, and planned to plant them at home. Some of them were already red, and I also picked a handful of poplars. I will go home and fry bacon for lunch today.
!
During the process, Tianbao also picked up a bird egg, which was very big. Yang Xu planned to steam an egg custard for lunch.
There are a lot of wild vegetables to eat. It was the first time for Yang Xu and Tianbao to pick wild vegetables. The baskets were too heavy and too heavy to carry back. Yang Xu was reluctant to give them up. She had noodles at home and planned to make dumplings stuffed with wild vegetables and meat at night. In modern times,
, she likes to eat it like this. It’s very delicious!
Yang Xu suddenly thought that she still had space! Because she had been busy all the time, the space was not of much use now, and she almost forgot about it.
So when Tianbao wasn't paying attention, he placed some wild vegetables in the space.
"Okay, we can go back. Come back next time and make lunch."
"Okay!" Tianbao still has some unfinished ideas. Picking wild vegetables is so interesting!
There are two pots at home, one for cooking and one for stir-frying. Yang Xu cooked the rice first.
Wang Dayi’s family has no land, so he doesn’t have sweet potatoes or anything else to cook with. He just cooks white rice directly.
Yang Xu had no choice but to eat luxuriously first.
After the rice was cooked, Yang Xu did not rush to stir-fry the vegetables first, fearing that the peppers would dry out, so she quickly transplanted the peppers to an open space in front of the cave.
Tianbao was washing wild vegetables, and Yang Xu brought an earthen pot into the space, intending to take some spiritual spring water and pour it on the peppers.
After entering the space, I found something was wrong. The wild vegetables that I threw in casually were covered by some white mist, but a jar of pepper appeared next to it.
Yang Xu reached for the jar of pepper, and the wild vegetables disappeared.
Yang Xu was startled. Could it be that the hidden function of this space is exchange? He just chose pepper, so there are no wild vegetables. Therefore, whatever he puts in the space will have what the space considers to be an equivalent exchange. You can choose
To change or not to change!
Yang Xu was very surprised. She picked a lot of wild vegetables by herself, and they were not precious things here, but she needed pepper!
There is no pepper at all in this era. Pepper is used properly when cooking, but it is very delicious. It is really worth it!
Yang Xu planned to try something else when he had the opportunity. Now that Tianbao was still outside, he could not disappear for too long, so he hurriedly came out.
The pepper is packed in a wooden box. Some people use this wooden box to store salt. So, is it not surprising that this space is quite smart?
Now that there are chilies and peppers, the meat for lunch today must be delicious!
I picked mushrooms just now, and I also have pickled pheasants at home, so let’s stew the chicken with mushrooms. I’ve already made an egg custard on the rice, so let’s stir-fry another plate of wild vegetables!
I don’t have much to prepare, so it’s best to finish it at noon, so I can make dumplings in the afternoon.
There is lard in the jar at home, which must have been saved by Wang Dayi before. There is still a lot of it.
The wild vegetables were washed, soaked in salt water to remove the bitterness, and then fried in lard, with a wild pepper added to the poplar.
Chop the chicken, chop the peppers, heat the oil and stir-fry, add water, add mushrooms. Add salt and pepper, wild garlic and green onions.
Yang Xu also secretly added Lingquan water. She had tested before and found that the dishes added with Lingquan water would be more delicious.
Yang Xu thought it would be good to make something and sell it in the town in the future.
"Wow, it smells so good! What did sister cook?"
Tianbao has a very good nose, and I always feel that it has a special smell, a bit pungent but extremely fragrant.
"The little nose is very clever. There are pheasant mushrooms stewed in the pot, but today I added sansho pepper, the red one I picked today."
"Ah? Is that really edible?"
Tianbao was a little confused. After all, the brighter the mushrooms on the mountain, the more poisonous they are. This red wild fruit should not be eaten!
"Don't worry. My sister has read it in the book. It's not poisonous. It's the same as spring onions and is put in vegetables."
"All right."
Yang Xu was afraid that Wang Dayi and Tianbao couldn't eat spicy food, so he deliberately left half of the food without chili pepper, just in case.
After the dishes were ready, Wang Dayi just came back, carrying two rabbits and a pheasant.
"Brother-in-law is back!"
"Um."
Wang Dayi saw that it was getting dark at noon, so he came back. The pheasant was shot with a bow and arrow, and the rabbit fell into a trap he had set. It was not injured. Wang Dayi planned to keep the pheasant for now, and he would eat the pheasant at home.
"I'm back! It's time for dinner. I cooked chicken and mushrooms."
"Okay." Wang Dayi smiled knowingly. It felt good to have someone waiting for him to eat.
"Huh? These two rabbits are still alive."
"Well, let's keep it first and save it for later. Eat this pheasant first."
"Okay, do you want to deal with the chicken now or after dinner?"
"eat first."
"Then go wash your hands. I'll serve the rice."
Wang Dayi responded and went to wash his hands with Tianbao. Tianbao was also used to washing his hands before eating. His sister said that it would be less likely to get sick if it was so clean.
"The chicken my sister cooked today added wild sansho pepper, the red fruit. But my sister said it's not poisonous."
"Red fruit?"
Wang Dayi knew about this food. He had eaten it when he was very hungry when he was a child. He couldn't eat it and his tongue would be numb. But his body would be hot. It's not poisonous, but he can't eat it.
But if she made it, she would definitely eat it, and it wouldn't be poisonous anyway.
Finally, I ate a piece of chicken with the mentality of numbing my tongue, but I was surprised. The chicken was delicious, fresh and chewy. It also had a special taste, a bit like red fruits but not like them.
Wang Dayi stuffed a big mouthful of rice and enjoyed the mushroom chicken.
Tianbao also liked the taste, and he was sweating all over the food without stopping.
The three of them all immersed themselves in eating without talking. Wang Dayi ate three bowls of rice before he stopped. Even Tianbao ate more than one bowl.
