Roast suckling pig is a well-deserved hard vegetable in flower planting recipes.
The prototype is the "cannon pig" - the beggar pig, one of the eight delicacies of the Zhou Dynasty. Later, with the continuous development of cooking technology in our foodie empire, it gradually evolved into roasted suckling pig.
However, this dish is basically no longer seen on the dining tables in the north. It is too wasteful; only the Cantonese people who "have four legs and cannot eat a bench, and a pair of wings cannot eat an airplane" will be willing to eat this thing.
Ever since he started raising pigs at home, Zhou Yan had been thinking about such a day, but when this day came, Zhou Yan found it unbelievable...
The most authentic way to make roast suckling pig is to slaughter it and prepare it on the spot. However, because the food comes first, Zhou Yan didn't care about it anymore. He opened the package and put it in cold water to defrost it first.
Then, he ran to his room and pulled out a box from under the bed, which contained various barbecue tools...
Mrs. Zhou Yan was very angry when she saw that Zhou Yan had brought back a large barbecue fork and a rack from the future. She picked up the rolling pin and tried to hit her son on the head...
"You little brat, you've been thinking about our little pig for a long time. Do you think I won't..."
"Mom, what about it?" Zhou Yan glanced at Qin Ruoshu, who was snickering at the side, "Your daughter-in-law is still watching!"
"Brat!"
While the piglets were defrosting, Zhou Yan took the opportunity to clean the barbecue equipment, and then took Qin Ruoshu to his room.
"It will take a while to thaw. If you are tired, you should take a rest first..."
"No……"
Qin Ruoshu shook his head and thought carefully about the photo frame hanging on the wall.
Most of the photos inside are of classmate Zhou Yan's "unbearable" past: most of them were wearing crotchless pants, and a few were taken after "scraping putty" in a photo studio.
Of course, the most eye-catching photo is naturally the photo taken during high school military training, which is one size larger than the others...
"Oh, brother..." After looking at it for a while, Qin Ruoshu turned around and looked at Zhou Yan in surprise, "During high school military training, you were standing behind me?"
"Not only when taking pictures," Zhou Yan smiled proudly, "even during military training, I was always behind you, but you didn't notice it..."
"That's really fate!" Qin Ruoshu smiled, put the photo back, reached out to hug Zhou Yan's arm, and pointed to a "shameful" photo of Zhou Yan in the glass frame, "Brother, can you put that photo
Give me?"
"You little girl, you're too vicious," Zhou Yan smiled and took off the photo frame, "You're not even married yet, and you plan to arrest your husband for his dirty work?"
"Give it or not~" Qin Ruoshu kept shaking Zhou Yan's arm, making Zhou Yan confused...
After the target was achieved, Qin Ruoshu continued to appreciate Zhou Yan's collection.
The textbooks I purchased from the first grade of elementary school to my graduation from high school are neatly stacked in the bookcase. On the desk, in addition to basic tome-sized recipes, there are also some electronic professional books.
After browsing through it, Qin Ruoshu turned his attention to the most suspicious drawer...
I just stared and didn't speak.
Zhou Yan was already familiar with his girlfriend's routines. He smiled and shook his head: "Just look at each other!"
The drawer contains toys that Zhou Yan has accumulated since childhood: cars, glass balls, match guns, and the "Xiao Li Flying Knife" that Zhou Yan knocked out with wire...
"Wow..." Qin Ruoshu turned around after seeing these rare things, her eyes widened, as if to say: How can you play with these things?
Zhou Yan touched his nose and reached out to open the second drawer.
The items inside are relatively normal: in addition to the Walkman, there are also a lot of tapes.
Qin Ruoshu gently scratched the tape case with her little hand. After making a rough estimate, she looked back at Zhou Yan: "Brother, you used to like Zhang Yu, Zhang Yusheng and Chen Guanpu. Can you still listen to it?"
"It's been four or five years, it should have been demagnetized..."
"There is also a drawer for me to be healthy..."
What surprised Qin Ruoshu was that there were only a few football magazines sealed in the last drawer...
After counting the harvest, Qin Ruoshu pushed all the drawers up again, turned around and put her arms around Zhou Yan's neck: "Brother Yan, when you were in junior high school, did I ever pass a note to you as a little girl in your class?
"
"Junior high school? Impossible?" Zhou Yan shook his head gently, "At that time, there was never much interaction between men and women in our school..."
"What about the school beauty?"
Zhou Yan thought for a moment: "It should be Li Linlin from our class at that time!"
Qin Ruoshu's eyes suddenly lit up: "Do you have any photos?"
Zhou Yan glanced at the photo frame on the wall, smiled and shook his head: "Nothing left..."
"Brother Yan, something is wrong with you!"
Zhou Yan saw Qin Ruoshu looking at him with a smile, and smiled coquettishly: "Okay, I admit that I had a crush on Li Linlin, but after high school, my crush changed to you..."
Guess you know the truth!
"Oh, and..." Zhou Yan took out his notebook from his bag, plugged it in, and pushed it to his girlfriend, "Roasted suckling pig is very time-consuming to make. You can use this to kill some time..."
"No need..." Qin Ruoshu pouted, "There are not even songs in your computer..."
"Then there's nothing I can do," Zhou Yan took out the wireless network card from his bag and plugged it into the computer. "This one can only browse the web, and the download speed is very difficult..."
"Then I'd better watch the roast suckling pig being cooked!"
The piglets are still thawing.
Taking advantage of this gap, Zhou Yan prepared some seasonings and crispy water.
After the piglets were defrosted and wiped clean, Zhou Yan picked up the seven-star knife and started processing the bones: cutting off the spine, shaving off the shoulder blades and a few ribs.
After marinating with seasonings for a period of time, scald the skin with hot water to fix the shape, then brush with crispy water and leave it to air dry.
Next comes the preparation stage for baking.
Build a rectangular frame with bricks, slightly larger than the roasted suckling pig, fill it with charcoal, put the bracket on, and the preparations are complete.

There was still plenty of time, so Zhou Yan took Qin Ruoshu to the reservoir and pulled out a cage for catching crayfish...
Seeing the densely packed dark red crayfish, the eldest lady was so frightened that she hid behind Zhou Yan.
"As for that?"
Zhou Yan untied the net on the ground cage, poured the crayfish inside into a large plastic basin, jumped out the smaller ones, and threw them back into the water...
While Zhou Yan was busy, Qin Ruoshu was a little curious, so she came up to him, carefully picked up one, and looked at it carefully.
"Brother, why do I feel that this crayfish looks a bit like a wave dragon?"
"It does look a bit like it." Zhou Yan turned around, handed over a crayfish with its pincers cut off, and replaced the one in Qin Ruoshu's hand, "Be careful, it will hurt if you are caught by the crayfish's pincers.
of……"
"knew!"
Qin Ruoshu pouted: So small, how painful can it be...
Then, Qin Ruoshu quietly put her little hand into the basin...
"Ouch..."
Zhou Yan quickly used scissors to cut off the evil pliers, and then looked at the eldest lady who was crying in pain with a wry smile: "I told you..."
The eldest lady pouted: "This hurts a lot..."
"Okay..." Zhou Yan leaned his head over and took the eldest lady's "seriously injured" finger into his mouth.
"It doesn't hurt anymore..." The eldest lady broke into a smile.
After returning home, Zhou Yan carefully washed the crayfish he brought back, removed the heads and threads, and when he was done, the roasted suckling pig was almost finished drying...
When Father Zhou returned home in the evening, there was a fragrance filling the yard...
"Uncle Zhou!"
"Hey, Xiao Qin is here, just sit down..."
After saying hello to his prospective daughter-in-law, Zhou Zhenghai smiled and looked at his son who was brushing oil on the red piglet: "Stones are indeed good things. If something like this happens again in the future, I will stay in advance..."
“Dad, it’s best to kill and cook now!”
At this moment, Mrs. Zhou Yan walked out of the kitchen and glared at the two men: "You two, apart from eating, all you know is eating..."
"Food is the most important thing for the people..."
