After Xiao Nianzhi soaked the Yao Zhu, everyone went out to play again.
The mutton still needs to be soaked, so there’s no rush to cook it now.
Moreover, the weather is sunny now, which is the most suitable weather for traveling.
When the weather gets hot, no one wants to bother.
None of the people went fishing, but went...
Chase the ducks!
Xiao Nianzhi also didn't expect that one day, he would be able to catch ducks in ancient times!
Watching groups of big and small ducks running together, everyone behind them rolled up their sleeves and chased forward in small steps.
What do you say about this picture?
If there is no explanation, who would know that among these people, there are princesses, princes, and even the eldest princess of the dynasty?
Among them, the eldest princess ran the most happily.
Probably this duck, it tastes really good.
Xiao Nianzhi ran at the end, with Yan Xingxuan accompanying her.
Seeing Yan Changxia running happily, Xiao Nianzhi felt relieved: "I guess you won't think about General Lou for a while, right?"
In response, Yan Xingxuan nodded: "Ming Yue is very forgetful and can think openly, so everything will be fine soon."
After hearing this, Xiao Nianzhi thought about it and shook his head: "Not necessarily. People or things without feelings naturally don't need to be remembered too much, but she has been getting along very well with General Lou recently, maybe..."
At the end of the sentence, Xiao Nianzhi sighed softly.
Yan Xingxuan actually doesn't quite understand the girl's thoughts.
Therefore, he did not refute Xiao Nianzhi's statement.
In other words, he will not refute.
Yan Xingxuan's Zhuangzi really has chickens, ducks, fish and rabbits.
So, everyone had a fun afternoon.
When the mutton was almost soaked, Xiao Nianzhi and the others packed it up and went back to prepare dinner.
Xiao Nianzhi was cooking, and it was naturally impossible for others to just watch.
So, everyone who could help gathered around.
The eldest princess has never touched these things, but Aunt Yu has no need for them.
So two people can sit and drink tea and watch the young man tossing.
Xiao Nianzhi is already blanching mutton.
The mutton that has been soaked in white wine for more than an hour now doesn't have much of a smell.
At this time, add hot water to the pot to blanch it, and add a little rice wine and green onions and ginger. After doing this, the mutton smell will be reduced by one layer, but its own flavor will be retained as much as possible.
Delicious.
Yan Changxia was already sucking and sucking on the side.
Wei Zhiqiu couldn't stand her sucking, so he gave her a while while lighting the fire: "Don't suck, your sucking makes me hungry."
Yan Changxia couldn't control herself, so she tried her best to close her mouth and nodded: "I'll try my best."
At this time, Yan Changxia was very aggrieved. She hadn't eaten food cooked by her good friend for a long time, so it wouldn't be too much to be greedy, right?
Wow, it smells really good!
After the mutton was blanched, Xiao Nianzhi had already heated up the oil in another pot.
Laishun and the others naturally washed the pots that had been boiled before.
Xiao Nianzhi is preparing to braise a piece of lamb.
If you don't want to fry the sugar color, but still want the mutton to be beautifully colored, then there will be more sauces to follow.
But, not now.
Therefore, you have to fry the sugar color as usual.
Xiao Nianzhi controlled the heat well. When the snow-white sugar turned into caramel color, Xiao Nianzhi went straight into the pot to stir-fry the mutton.
At the same time, prepare the onion and ginger segments and put them aside, ready to be cooked at any time.
After stir-frying over high heat for several times to allow the mutton pieces to color, Xiao Nianzhi promptly added the green onion and ginger segments.
Fresh and tender green onion segments, after being stir-fried twice, are dyed with smoke and caramel color. Looking at the bright red color, you will know...
It's definitely delicious!
At this moment, Yan Changxia's saliva began to slurp uncontrollably.
This time, Wei Zhiqiu didn't say anything.
Because it smelled so good, she didn't dare to speak, for fear that her saliva would accidentally fall off.
Although she was not looking at the pot at this time, but...
Drooling in public, it feels so embarrassing just thinking about it!
Wei Zhiqiu closed his mouth tightly, but his eyes looked into the pot uncontrollably.
The natural aroma of onion and ginger, as well as its own special aroma, blends perfectly with the mutton after being heated over a high fire. It can not only remove the mutton's own mutton smell, but also add another layer to the mutton on this basis.
fresh.
They can be said to be excellent partners!
Seeing that the heat and color were about the same, Xiao Nianzhi sprinkled a little white wine on the side of the pot.
Although it was a low-alcohol alcohol, it still stimulated the flames to shoot up violently, carrying freshness and fragrance, rising directly to the roof of the shed.
The sudden scene startled everyone.
Yan Xingxuan has even gone to scoop up water and prepare to put out the fire.
After scooping it out, I turned around and came back and found...
Why?
Where's the fire?
Adding white wine at this time will help remove the mutton and make the taste better.
Wine and vinegar are two magical things.
Their effect in removing fishy smell and mutton is indescribable.
Xiao Nianzhi still likes them very much.
After the mutton was really stir-fried and colored, Xiao Nianzhi added hot water in time.
After that, add the appropriate sauce.
Of course, in order to make the mutton more delicious, Xiao Nianzhi also put a small handful of Angelica dahurica into it.
Angelica dahurica is a Chinese herbal medicine that produces fragrance very slowly, but the fragrance it exudes can take food to a higher level.
Because the fragrance of Angelica dahurica is slightly bitter.
Therefore, this dosage must be grasped correctly.
Adding a small amount can remove the smell and enhance the freshness.
However, once the amount is exceeded, it will affect the taste of the food itself.
Xiao Nianzhi didn't put much of it, and deliberately broke it into pieces so that it would be more convenient and its fragrance would spread out.
After all the spices are put in, add the carrots.
After that, just let the time and temperature control, and slowly dry up the soup. Once the flavor is really absorbed, you can take it out of the pot.
The hot water did not extinguish the aroma. At this time, the fresh aroma of the mutton was already wrapped in a layer of natural aroma and slowly floated out, tempting every passerby and making them stop and watch.
Yan Changxia almost forgot to light the fire and stretched his neck to see and smell.
But Wei Zhiqiu reminded her: "Let's light the fire, otherwise when will it be cooked?"
Only then did Yan Changxia realize belatedly that the heavy responsibility of lighting the fire still fell on her!
She reluctantly withdrew her gaze, and then tried to light the fire.
Yan Changxia said that she wanted to cook the most delicious mutton and no one could compete with her.
She wants to eat two pieces first!!!
Braised mutton, just leave it to time.
Xiao Nianzhi turned around and started picking up the thin slices of mutton.
The mutton had already been soaked in rice wine when it came back.
The fishy smell is almost gone now, and it's just ready for use.
The lamb is cut thinly for stir-frying.
And the most classic stir-fry is of course cumin mutton!
However, in order to better remove the mutton, you still need to blanch it before stir-frying.
