Chapter 74 The more you eat, the more addictive you become
In the evening, Zhang Yu ate a bowl of noodles with clear soup and water, and felt like a bird was floating in his mouth.
But he didn’t want to eat meat, so he rummaged around in the kitchen for a while, and hey, Zhang Yu really got an idea.
Pickle pickles, pick some fresh chili peppers, cabbage sticks, and radish strips at this time, they are all good.
I glanced at the alarm clock and saw that it was still early. It was only six o'clock, so I could finish my shopping at the market in time.
There was fire and lightning all the way, and I went back and forth to the market to prepare everything. I also bought a pound of chili peppers and half a pound of garlic.
Mainly, when I saw Chaotian pepper, I thought of chili sauce.
In Zhang Yu’s previous life, I couldn’t just say that he had to eat chili sauce for one of his three meals.
Like, Laoganma, Qingyuan, Haitian Mushrooms, etc. there are many brands, my favorite is the one I make myself.
Thinking about it now makes me drool. After returning home, Zhang Yu started working.
Pickle the pickles first and you can have them for breakfast tomorrow.
Zhang Yu doesn't like to eat pickles that have been pickled for a long time. He thinks those pickles are too salty and prefers the kind that are pickled and eaten fresh.
It's just simple soy sauce, vinegar, a little bit of salt, and a little bit of sugar. After mixing it up and tasting it, it tastes right.
Cut the green pepper, cabbage, and radish into pieces according to how you would like to eat them.
Put it into a jar, pour the prepared pickle water in, sew the lid on, and put it in the cupboard.
The chili sauce is a bit more troublesome. First wash the red peppers and then peel the garlic. It only takes more than half an hour to peel the garlic.
After washing and drying, the next step is to chop into pieces. Now comes the hard work. I just listen to the rhythmic clanging in the room.
I think Xu Damao next door is so big-headed.
"Ezi, go and see what kind of monster Zhang Yu is doing. If he doesn't sleep at night, what are you doing?"
Lou Xiao'e rolled her eyes at Xu Damao. How could he let his wife go to another man's house at night?
"No, he will definitely go. If you don't like it, go by yourself. I won't go."
At this moment, Xu Damao had taken off his pants and was huddled under the quilt. How could he want to suffer the cold again?
"Oh, I've already taken off my clothes. If you tell me to do it, just tell him to pay attention. I didn't ask you to do anything."
Not to mention that Lou Xiao'e didn't want to see Xu Damao during this period. If it's nice, it would taste wrong from Xu Damao's mouth.
Lou Xiao'e couldn't defeat Xu Damao, so she put on a coat and knocked on Zhang Yu's door.
"Hey, it's my sister-in-law. Why are you knocking on my door if you don't go to bed so late?"
Zhang Yu opened the door and saw Lou Xiao'e, and asked with a strange look on his face.
The smell of chili pepper in the room made Lou Xiaoe sneeze several times.
"Zhang Yu, why is there such a strong smell of chili pepper in your house?"
"What are you doing in the house?"
Lou Xiao'e covered her mouth and nose and asked angrily.
"Oh, you're asking this, I'm going to make some chili sauce."
"Is it true that the sound of me chopping chili peppers has disturbed you."
Zhang Yu came to his senses at this moment, and his feelings were noisy to the next door.
"I'll finish chopping it right away. There's still a little left. It'll only take three to five minutes. You and Brother Damao should take more care of it."
Lou Xiao'e looked at Zhang Yu, and her attitude was very good, and she didn't want to say anything else.
"Okay, hurry up and chop it. After you finish chopping, take a rest early. I'll go to Brother Damao and talk to him."
"Hey, thank you, sister-in-law."
Zhang Yu closed the door and went on to chop peppers.
Xu Daimao was in that house, just to fall asleep, and was awakened by the sound of being.
"Ezi, weren't you looking for Zhang Yu? Why is his house still so cool?"
"Zhang Yu is making chili sauce. It will be chopped in three to five minutes. Please bear with me."
Lou Xiao'e took off her clothes and got into bed.
Xu Damao looked at Lou Xiao'e with hatred that the iron could not turn into steel.
"Ezi, you are so easy to talk to. Zhang Yu's behavior at night is a serious nuisance to the people. If you scold him a few words, he won't dare to do it."
"No, it's so bad to curse people. Besides, my attitude is very correct and I apologized to us."
"Besides, it's only a matter of three to five minutes, and it'll be over with patience. It's not worth it to make the relationship so tense over such a trivial matter."
Actually, Lou Xiao'e didn't think the clanging sound was very noisy. Instead, she found it quite rhythmic and hypnotic.
The couple was talking, but the clanking stopped, and Xu Damao couldn't say goodbye anymore, so he could only turn off the lights and go to sleep.
Zhang Yu found the remaining sesame seeds at home, poured them into the chopped chili peppers, heated the oil in a pot, poured everything into the pot, sprinkled with salt and sugar, and began to fry.
Serve it out in a jar and carry it outside the door. Let the chilli sauce cool down with the help of the cool air outside.
I went back to the house and started to clean up the mess. When everything was done, it was almost twelve o'clock.
Soak your feet quickly and go to bed.
……
The next day.
Zhang Yu got up early, brought in the jar from outside the house, opened the lid, and couldn't wait to take a bite.
"Cooking 50."
Well, it’s delicious. The only flaw is that the umami taste is a little less. However, there’s nothing we can do about it. In this era, there is no MSG and chicken essence, so it doesn’t taste very fresh. It’s great to be able to make it like this.
At home, I rummaged through my cabinets and found a small, deep aluminum box, which I brushed seven or eight times before it was clean.
Put a box of chili sauce in a small aluminum box, wrap it in paper and put it in the bag. After a while, go to the factory and let the master take it home to try it.
Zhang Yu ate the pickles he had picked last night, took a few bites of them, then took his bag and went to the factory.
It’s still the same operation as always, except I added a small box of chili sauce today.
Master Ma took a careful taste, and it was so spicy that Master Ma was so excited that he kept talking with a loud tongue all morning.
"You brat, you dare to share something so spicy, and you're not afraid of burning me to death."
This is an exaggerated statement.
"Master, listen to my explanation, bah, no, master, listen to my explanation."
"It's unfair, Master. How dare I kill you? My chili sauce was cooked all night long."
"I tried it myself and it was really delicious, so I brought it to share with you."
"I didn't expect that you don't like spicy food so much."
Zhang Yu really didn’t expect that Master Ma couldn’t eat spicy food. Zhang Yu thought that as a seasoned foodie, Master Ma would be able to accept such spicy chili sauce.
But reality always slaps you in the face so quickly. The facts tell Zhang Yu that you are thinking too much.
"Okay, okay, master believes you are not sincere."
Although Master Ma was a bit spicy, he had to admit that the taste of this stuff was really good.
As Master Ma thought about it, he felt a little craving for food.
At lunch in the cafeteria, Master Ma tasted the chili sauce while eating the vegetables. Master Ma's spicy sauce was spicy.
"Xiaoyu, the chili sauce you made is really delicious, Siha~. The more I eat it, the more addictive it becomes. It's just that it's spicy, a bit beyond my range. It's too spicy, Siha~."
"If you reduce the spiciness by half, I would be happy to eat it."
"In this way, when you get off work, I will give you money and you will make me a dish that is not so spicy."
After Master Ma finished speaking, he stuck out another chopstick and put it in his mouth. His whole face turned red from the spicy food and he was covered in sweat.
