Chapter 458: Live by the River - Stewed Fish with Tofu

What's strange about this ginger? General Shi took a closer look and saw that it was a small bucket for washing vegetables. It was only half a foot high and nearly two feet wide, but it was densely covered with pieces of ginger, which was two feet high.

There are very few leaves on the top, and the shape is very much like a pile of cacti. Looking at the bottom, I can see that the soil produced by the rotting leaves cannot provide the nutrients that ginger needs to grow. Captain Han knows something better.

The strange miscellaneous scholar saw General Shi looking at the ginger and came over to explain: "This is called a barrel of ginger mountain. Ginger and ginger are stacked to form a Shoushan shape. There are seven or eighteen holes in it. It is obtained by luck and cannot be cultivated by manpower.

Also, if it is moved to the main tent of the Chinese army, it will definitely rob the evil spirits and invigorate the army, becoming a treasure to suppress the army."

Can a bucket of Jiangshan have this effect? ​​General Shi was dubious. But his experience at night forced him to make this association. Regardless of the fact, its role in stabilizing the morale of the army is self-evident. General Shi was prepared to invite it over at the right time.

Everyone officially started eating. Dragon Zam is made by wrapping the intestines and stomach of Pig Po Dragon with its heart, liver, lungs, spleen and kidneys. The five internal organs contain the five elements and five flavors. The liver corresponds to the wood in the five elements, and the sour in the five flavors. Heart

Corresponds to fire in the five elements and bitterness in the five flavors. The spleen corresponds to earth in the five elements and salty in the five flavors. The lungs correspond to gold in the five elements and pungent in the five flavors. The kidneys correspond to water in the five elements and salty in the five flavors. Take this bite

, the parts that everyone's tongue touches are different, and the taste varies. When you bite one thing, you have one taste, and when you bite two things at the same time, you have three flavors. For example, bitterness is one taste, sweetness is another taste, and bitterness and sweetness are mixed in different proportions.

There are many kinds of flavors. Three different flavors in different proportions, four, five different flavors in different proportions, etc., mix in the mouth, presenting an ever-changing taste experience.

Different flavor combinations hit the taste buds. Looking at the expressions on everyone's faces, Qian asked with concern: "How does it taste? Does it suit your appetite?"

But words have their limits. Everyone tasted it carefully, but no words can describe the specific taste. Only you looked at me, and I looked at you. No one answered his question. He raised his chopsticks and picked up a piece.

Taste, there are so many changes. His tongue, which is ranked among the best in the world of chefs, is actually overwhelmed by such a complex taste. The taste comes second. What shocks him even more is that he feels that there is something in his body.

These changes made me feel happy, every breath I took was full of vitality, every organ felt like it had been washed, and I felt extremely comfortable.

There was only one dish, but everyone was reluctant to finish it and chewed it slowly. This night, we ate from midnight to dawn. The foremen got up to make breakfast, and then they quickly licked up all the soup at the bottom of the bowl.

.

For this night, the captain and the generals didn't sleep at all. However, when it was time for morning exercises, everyone was refreshed and led their men in the drills. The shouts of killing were loud and the momentum was high.

It has increased a lot compared to before, and they look like two completely different people. Although the Song Dynasty was rich and the army was weak, they were still a Xiang army with weak combat effectiveness. However, just listening to the training training from the Caishiji military camp

The cry of killing came out like a landslide and a tsunami, more powerful than the charge of the golden soldiers from the north on horseback.

Although the morale of the military was greatly boosted, because there was no news of the invasion of Jin soldiers, the imperial court believed that there was no risk of annihilation for the time being. Military supplies were postponed, and the originally planned military rations did not arrive. People have to raise troops for thousands of miles, and it is better for the imperial court to use troops for a while.

, it’s a time to raise troops, a time to use them, the general sighed.

This problem has returned to the hands of Captain Qian Lotus. It seems that he has to eat rice that is five years old and continue to catch fish for food. However, the few water inlets where baskets were originally laid out are no longer the same as the big fish.

Come in, the little fish are almost caught, and they can't feed the whole army, so they need to find another way. During the day, with a lot of money, they took the gang leader to look for it in the water near the Manji. Finally, they found a shallow place in the river.

A group of fish were found in the pond. The fish were washed into the pond by the river. After the water receded, they stayed in the shallow pond. They were so densely packed that it was not difficult to catch them. It solved an urgent need.

The fish we caught weighed several hundred kilograms, but it was obviously not enough to feed 1,700 mouths. We had quite a lot of money. After discussing with Luo Bixiang and others, come on, let’s have some fish tofu soup. This soup is big.

Cooking in a pot is more delicious than cooking in a small pot.

The gang leaders divided the work. First, cut open and wash the fish, cut the green onion into sections, and slice the ginger. In a large soup pot, add ginger slices and bring to a boil. At the same time, heat up the oil pan, add ginger, and hold it down with a shovel.

Make a circle around the bottom of the pot and take it out before the ginger is burnt to prevent the fish from sticking to the pot. Use a rag to wipe off the water on the surface of the fish to prevent it from exploding in the pot. Fry the fish on both sides until it becomes golden and set.

Pour the fish and oil into the soup pot that has been boiled before, add the secret sauce, add an appropriate amount of cooking wine to enhance the aroma, bring to a boil over high heat, add green onions, continue to cook over high heat for a while, cover the lid (leave a gap)

) Turn to medium heat and cook for a while. Cut the tofu into small pieces and put it into the soup pot. After boiling the pot, continue to cook on high heat for half an hour. Finally, add an appropriate amount of salt, vinegar and chili. After tasting it,

The meat of this fish is tender and delicious, with less bones and more fat. It is really good.

"Ru Meng Ling·Stewed Fish with Tofu"

Heat the pot and brush the ginger to prevent it from sticking, then fry it with a knife. When both sides are golden, add the tofu and cook together. It will slurp, slurp, and the spoonful will taste delicious.

The only type of tofu in ancient times is brine tofu. It depends on the skill and mentality. It is more like Lao Fei tofu, but it will not break into pieces after being cooked for a long time. It is porous and can absorb the umami. It is tender and boils out water, but it will rot after being cooked for a long time. The tofu in the barracks is made by myself.

The food, considering the effect after cooking, is naturally old tofu. After the fish is cooked for a long time, the umami flavor penetrates into the tofu, and the fish is not so fresh. At the table, the soldiers were looking for the fish at first and ate it for a while.

, I felt that the tofu tasted better, so I picked up the tofu with chopsticks again. The tofu was fragile, and after picking it up several times, there were only small pieces.

Seeing the soldiers eating with gusto one by one, Qian Duoduo's heart was full of pain. When will the military rations and salaries from the court arrive? Today's food is available, but what about tomorrow? Otherwise, ask General Sheng for a big boat to come every day.

Fishing in the river can solve this problem, but borrowing a boat is related to the deployment of troops. The court governs military affairs with culture, and the civil officials and generals in charge must agree together. Now, there is no war, this, even if General Shi and General Sheng

I'm afraid I can't make this decision either.

After the soldiers had finished eating, they had a rest period with a stick of incense before going out to exercise. Everyone jokingly sang a self-composed folk song: "I have always been able to eat enough rice every day. Although the taste is not very good, ever since Captain Qian came to Shishiji

, the soldiers complained of hunger every day. His food was really good, and no amount of rice was too little."
