Chapter 1051 Prepare the ingredients

Li Ya didn't think much about it, and immediately replied, "Is that the day we met, when I went out to buy things at night, I was entangled by the gangsters, and it was Meng Chuan who helped me solve the siege, after reporting to the police at that time, didn't you still ask me about what happened." ”

When Li Ya said this, Zhang Yi suddenly remembered, "Oh, it's that time, I remembered, you did tell me." ”

"By the way, Xiaoya, you can drink some yogurt, the master said that yogurt is good for the stomach, and I drank it at night."

Li Yana is a nurse, this common sense must know, "Well, dairy products are indeed better for the stomach, but the effect of fresh milk is a little better than yogurt, I know where it is sold, I will buy you some fresh milk to drink tomorrow." ”

Xiao Zhang was very happy to hear this, she really liked to drink fresh milk, "Then thank you Xiaoya." ”

The next day, after Meng Chuan reported to the detachment leader about assisting in the arrest of criminals, he went to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables and make soup for them in the evening.

Because there are only two girls there, Meng Chuan is not going to cook too many dishes, one soup is enough, otherwise if you cook too much, you won't be able to finish it, but it will be wasted.

Xiao Zhang suffered from arterial bleeding and excessive blood loss, which led to shock.

Although the body recovered well after the blood transfusion, the amount of blood in the body was not much, so Meng Chuan had to make a blood-replenishing soup this time.

We have a kind of consciousness that patients are not suitable for eating big fish and meat, only suitable for eating some light food, otherwise the body will not be easy to recover.

In fact, this is a misunderstanding, some patients are indeed not suitable for eating some big fish and meat, but the vast majority of patients, if they want to supplement their body nutrition after surgery, the best way is to supplement high-protein food.

And what are high-protein foods?

Meat is a high-protein food.

However, meat really can't be eaten blindly, Meng Chuan is suggesting, don't be in a hurry to eat beef and mutton after surgery, if you want to supplement protein, or eat chicken, duck and fish first, because these white meat contains very sufficient protein.

In particular, hen soup, duck soup, and fish soup are more easily absorbed by the human body and are very helpful for postoperative recovery.

Meng Chuan planned to cook an old hen soup for Xiao Zhang this time, which replenished qi and blood after drinking this soup, which was very conducive to Xiao Zhang's consumption now.

Buy some ingredients first, red dates are a must, because you want to replenish blood, red dates are better ingredients, and red dates are also sweet, and they can be eaten deliciously.

Then buy some shiitake mushrooms, stew chicken soup, shiitake mushrooms are almost a must-have ingredient, and the nutritional value of shiitake mushrooms is very high, and the stewed soup is very good.

After buying some of the accessories for the stew, Meng Chuan began to buy the most important old hen.

To tell the truth, if you go to the vegetable market to buy this kind of chicken, it is not easy to buy, because the chickens sold in the vegetable market are generally artificially bred broilers, and they can grow from chicken seedlings to big chickens in three months.

This kind of chicken really doesn't taste very good, if it's braised because there is a lot of meat, it tastes okay.

But if it is a stewed soup, Meng Chuan is not very recommended, because the nutritional value of the stewed soup is not too high at all, and there is no need to spend two or three hours on stewing.

If you want to stew soup, local chicken is the first choice, but when buying local chicken, you must pay attention to the price, generally pull to the vegetable market of local chicken, feed feed to mature there are a lot, although local chickens generally do not eat the kind of feed with hormones, but it does not mean that there must be none.

So be sure to see the price clearly, if in a big city, a five or six catties of local chickens will be sold for almost one hundred and fifty yuan, Meng Chuan's home is in the town, it turns out that his family often buys local chickens, which are the kind of local chickens that are raised in the orchard.

Their boss sells chickens not by the pound, but by the pound, a hundred yuan, you go to the orchard to catch it, you like which one to catch, and after the catch, just come out and give money.

In this way, they save on shipping and some booth fees and things like that.

In this way, a free-range chicken for more than six months is sold for 100 yuan, if you buy it in the vegetable market in the city, if it is lower than this price, then you have to be careful, after all, businessmen seek profits, they will not do a loss-making business.

If you buy a local chicken with a cheaper price, it is mostly fed with hormone feed.

Meng Chuan also compared the price of local chickens back and forth, and probably asked the boss about the price, and the price of a chicken they estimated was indeed about one hundred and fifteen, so this is basically an authentic local chicken.

Several bosses who sold local chickens saw Meng Chuan looking left and right and asking, and before they made up their minds to buy it, they greeted him, "Comrade, you are a soldier, and we don't dare to lie to you." These chickens are our free-range chickens, if you don't believe it, when can you go to our yard to have a look, I guarantee that it is okay. ”

Meng Chuan smiled, "Okay, then pick me a hen with a little spirit, I'll go back and ask for stew." ”

When the bosses saw that Meng Chuan wanted to buy it, they immediately fished out one, "Comrade, look at this chicken, it's absolutely good, then if there is no problem, I will weigh it for you." ”

Meng Chuan nodded, "Okay, weigh it, and help me slaughter it, it's not convenient for me to carry it back." ”

The boss specializes in this, and when he buys live chickens in the vegetable market, the boss helps the chickens to be slaughtered and feathered for free.

Soon the old hen was cleaned up, and Meng Chuan went out of the vegetable market after giving the money, but Meng Chuan did not rush back to the camp, but came to the Chinese medicine store to buy some medicinal materials for stewed soup.

Because Xiao Zhang's body is weak, it is not enough to just drink chicken soup, so Meng Chuan is preparing to make a medicinal diet, and the traditional Chinese medicine used this time is also very common, that is, Codonopsis, Astragalus and Angelica.

Codonopsis, angelica tonify blood, astragalus replenishes qi, even in the ordinary rice we usually eat, it is not surprising to see these things, because there are many chefs who do use this as a seasoning.

Some people may think it is an exaggeration, and there are chefs who use Chinese herbal medicines as seasonings?

This, Meng Chuan doesn't know how to explain, if you go to eat buffet, take a closer look in the soup area, most of you can see these things, Meng Chuan has seen it with his own eyes, so he dares to say this.

However, there are many flavored medicines in Chinese herbal medicines, which are also medicines and vegetables, and people who usually do not get sick want to regulate their bodies, and most of them will eat some, as long as they do not exceed them, they are generally only good for the body, and there is no harm.

Meng Chuan didn't take much of these three herbs, so he bought a little bit, if you also want to use these common Chinese medicines to make soup, then use your hands to pinch a little, don't put too much.

After the ingredients were bought, Meng Chuan did not stay, and immediately drove back to the camp, the soup must be cooked in the morning, if a pot of chicken soup is to be stewed over low heat, two to three hours is the best.
