Before Xiao Nianzhi, he had no feelings about the identity of Xiangjun.
Nowadays, the people coming from Shanglinyuan Prison are polite to her, although part of the reason is because of Aunt Yu, but part of the reason is because of the status of Xiangjun.
This made Xiao Nianzhi realize in a daze: In the imperial class society, identity is indeed very useful.
After seeing off the visitor from Shanglinyuan Prison, Xiao Nianzhi soon began to think...
What are you having for midnight snack today?
While she was thinking, Manager Qiu came over.
As soon as he came over, he shouted: "Yuan Niang, I just sent some eggplants from the mountain. Do you want to use them tonight?"
There are no more eggplants on the mountains, and now winter vegetables are grown in most places.
Now I want to eat vegetables and the like, but except for a small part of green leafy ones, which have a short cycle, the rest are gone and need to be delivered down the mountain.
Hearing that there were eggplants, Xiao Nianzhi thought about it and turned around and asked Aunt Yu: "How about we eat eggplants tonight?"
Although Aunt Yu really wanted to eat sweets, she knew that eating too much sweets was bad, so she tried hard to restrain herself.
Now that she heard about eating eggplant, she thought about it and nodded: "Okay, think about it."
Manager Qiu was still standing by the field, waiting for Xiao Nianzhi's response. After Aunt Yu had no objection, she hurriedly replied: "Uncle Qiu, leave some for me to use."
When Manager Qiu heard this, he responded with a smile: "Hey, I'll send it to the cafeteria."
If you don't use it temporarily, put it in a relatively dark warehouse, so that it can be stored for a longer period of time.
Later, Xiao Nianzhi and Aunt Yu went to the cafeteria.
For today’s midnight snack, Xiao Nianzhi is going to eat fish-flavored eggplant.
It can be served with rice or eaten alone. Of course, if you like to eat it with noodles, you can also eat it.
If you want the fish-flavored eggplant to be delicious, one is the processing of the eggplant, and the other is the preparation of the sauce.
Xiao Nianzhi processed the eggplants first. In order to have a better taste, she removed the skin from the eggplants, cut them into hob pieces, sprinkled some salt, and did a little preliminary pickling.
This doesn't take long, just a little while.
At this time, Xiao Nianzhi went to prepare the final sauce.
If you want this sauce to be delicious, it is important to enhance its freshness.
Therefore, we need the chicken essence that Xiao Nianzhi sold to the academy before, and we also need pepper.
The pepper canteen did not buy it, but Yan Xingxuan still had it, so Xiao Nianzhi took care of it himself, and now it is very convenient to use.
After the sauce was mixed, Xiao Nianzhi heated up the oil in a pan and fried the eggplant first.
Yes, fry it first. In order to avoid more fat intake, Xiao Nianzhi fry it slowly over low heat and light oil.
While ensuring that the eggplant is not mushy, it can also be fried until soft, so that the final product will taste better and not be too greasy.
Because it has been marinated with salt in advance, you need to pay special attention when adding seasonings later.
In order to ensure the taste, the subsequent sauces and the like must be controlled to avoid being too salty and affecting the final taste.
The eggplant needs to be fried slowly over low heat, so while looking at the pot, Xiao Nianzhi chopped the garlic, minced some meat filling, and prepared miso.
Wait until the eggplant becomes soft, then add the meat filling, minced garlic and miso.
Fish-flavored eggplant is a soft and delicious eggplant, so you don’t actually need too much meat filling, it just serves as a seasoning to enhance the flavor.
After the meat filling is stir-fried, add the sauce and stir-fry for a while. Xiao Nianzhi adjusts his strength to preserve the integrity of the eggplant to the greatest extent.
However, peeled eggplants are too soft and tender after frying until soft, so it is inevitable that some of them may not be shaped well.
However, this will only affect the appearance of the product, but it will not affect the taste too much.
After stir-frying a few times to get the flavor, sprinkle in a handful of chopped green onions, then turn off the heat and serve.
When the eggplant was fried, there was only a faint aroma of oil, so the students did not pay much attention to it.
He looked around curiously, then turned around, either reading a book or talking to his classmates.
However, after the meat filling and minced garlic are put into the pot, the strong aroma wafts out.
Especially after they are mixed with eggplant and then poured with juice, the salty flavor becomes even more powerful.
Many students, who were originally talking about something, could no longer control themselves and frequently turned their heads to look.
Those students who were still reviewing their studies can no longer stand it now and look back from time to time.
As Xiao Nianzhi said: "Okay, okay."
Those students who received the numbers in front immediately rushed over with their own numbers.
Wei Changting was the first again, and Su Guiyu and several other friends lined up behind him.
Xiao Zhou came relatively late and is now in a relatively low position.
His concentration was pretty good, and even though there was a strong fragrance wafting over there, his eyes never left the book.
It wasn't until he saw that he was almost in line that he got up and walked over.
Seeing Xiao Zhou coming over, Xiao Nianzhi thought for a while and said in a low voice: "Second brother, after lunch tomorrow, you come to the backyard. I want to make some desserts. You can come and eat together."
There was too much cassava flour in the delicious kitchen, so Xiao Nianzhi decided to use it up a little.
It’s also good to satisfy your appetite with a little consumption without arousing suspicion.
When Xiao Zhou heard that there was an extra meal, he was a little embarrassed.
But he didn't refuse and nodded: "Yeah."
The students in the queue behind him turned red with envy when they heard that Xiao Zhou was offering extra meals.
So, why don’t they have a sister or something?
Ah, no, they have a younger sister.
But...
None of them can cook well!
Don’t ask, it’s sour if you ask!
It's sour, but they still want to face it, so they're not too embarrassed to talk about it or ask for it.
I can only feel sour to myself, and then complain about it to classmates I know well.
Today's fish-flavored eggplant is salty, tender and delicious. When Aunt Yu ate it, she forgot that she was a sweet tooth!
Woohoo, don’t ask, it’s so delicious that I don’t even want sweets!
Other students were also satisfied with their meal, today’s portion of eggplant...
Let’s eat!
Special meal!
If they hadn't eaten too much at night, they would have felt uncomfortable when sleeping, and they would have even wanted to have two more bowls.
But, no, you have to control it.
There’s no shortage of eggplant cooking, and there’s no shortage of arranging the numbers.
Xiao Nianzhi gave the last few portions directly to the rich aunt and the others.
After everyone enjoyed the delicious midnight snack, they either went back to study or rest.
After Xiao Nianzhi returned, he went into the delicious kitchen to practice some experience and sorted out more and more tapioca flour.
Then, I took a shower and returned to reality to sleep.
In the middle of the night, it suddenly started raining.
Xiao Nianzhi was worried, so she put on her raincoat and went to ask Aunt Yu. After knowing that she was okay now, she felt relieved and went back to sleep.
The students' first reaction after discovering it was raining was...
Don't let this rain last until night, otherwise they will lose hope for their midnight snack!!!
