Chapter 1188: Side Dishes
Seeing this, Shen Xiangmiao couldn't help but wonder: "Is the cook in Brother Wu's mansion still sick?" ”
"Not really." Wu Rumin scratched his scalp and said, "It's just that I'm tired of eating the food in the main courtyard, and I want to come to the other courtyard to taste the freshness, and Brother Shen shouldn't be annoyed by me." ”
In fact, it is mainly because I am afraid of those thoughtful kitchen girls, and they are not good at cooking for Shen Xiangmiao and Lu Shaoye and others, so they specially come here to eat, so that those kitchen girls dare not make a mistake.
Wu Rumin has a straightforward temperament, and he is a person who can't hide or lie, and when he doesn't speak, his eyes are looking left and right, fluctuating.
Shen Xiangmiao felt very funny when she saw this, and her heart was very warm.
Wu Rumin is really a person of temperament, but all the friends he identifies are for his sake wholeheartedly, and he is careful and thoughtful in every detail.
"Naturally, I'm not annoyed, but the chef in this courtyard was originally from the same place as the main courtyard, but I'm afraid that there is no difference in craftsmanship, and in the end they are all local dishes from Chongzhou, but I'm afraid that Brother Wu is also a little tired of eating."
Shen Xiangmiao said with a smile: "Little brother, I like to cook, why don't I cook two small dishes later, and let Brother Wu taste the freshness." ”
"It's a good feeling." Wu Rumin was overjoyed.
Originally, he just wanted to come over and sit in the town, so as not to make trouble for those slaves, but he never thought that he could taste Shen Xiang's craftsmanship, which was really an unexpected gain.
And those cooks are scheming, trying all kinds of methods, and even taking risks, just to learn Shen Xiang's cooking skills, which shows how superb his cooking skills are.
Wu Rumin also had the idea of trying his cooking skills at that time, and soon felt that the other party had not taken the initiative to invite him to taste, but he wanted to be difficult, so he blamed himself very much for how he became a person like a cook.
Now that it's okay, Shen Xiang took the initiative to let him taste the food, and he also satisfied this curiosity.
"It's just that cooking is inevitably tiring, Brother Shen only needs to do one or two display skills, don't do too much." Wu Rumin admonished.
"Brother Wu, don't worry." Shen Xiangmiao chuckled, asked Wu Rumin to wait here for a while, and then took Wu Rumin to the kitchen.
The cooks in the kitchen, because of the noon incident, were both ashamed and remorseful in their hearts, and now when they saw Shen Xiangmiao and Shui Su coming, they all quickly stopped their work and came to salute: "How did Shen Gongzi come to this kitchen, the old slaves are preparing dinner, just wait a while, although Shen Gongzi can rest assured, the old slaves who have eaten at night are all done with their hearts, and there will be no mistakes, Shen Gongzi can rest assured." ”
This humble and polite appearance obviously knows what is wrong with him.
Shen Xiangmiao's expression was gentle: "You work hard, naturally there is no reason to be at ease, but your family came to the garden to eat, and I had itchy hands and wanted to cook, so I borrowed the kitchen and made two dishes." ”
If before, when they heard that Shen Xiangmiao was going to come to the kitchen to cook, those kitchen ladies would have been extremely happy, and even very attentive on the side, in order to be able to secretly learn a trick and a half when Shen Xiangmiao was cooking.
But now, where do everyone still have the courage to steal learning, they just nodded and said: "Shen Gongzi wants to cook, the old slaves quickly pack up and make room for Shen Gongzi, what vegetables and meat does Shen Gongzi need, call us to get it, if you need to choose to wash and cut shabu, the old slaves will definitely help, but Gongzi can rest assured, in addition, the old slaves dare not have other thoughts." ”
was so submissive, obviously frightened by Wu Rumin's anger at noon, and he didn't dare to make another mistake at this time.
"Then it's hard work." Shen Xiangmiao rolled up her sleeves, put on her apron, and went into the kitchen.
The cooks on the side bowed their heads, helping cautiously and carefully on the side, and no longer dared to have any thoughts of stealing from the master to learn the arts.
Fresh cucumbers, take fresh cucumbers, from head to root, vertically cut long and thin slices like cicada wings into rolls and put them on a plate, sprinkle with small red pepper segments, minced garlic and ginger, pour in the sauce made of light soy sauce, salt, sugar, sesame oil and vinegar, and finally pour all the hot oil in the pot on the cucumber rolls.
When the hot oil comes into contact with the fresh cucumber slices, as well as the minced ginger, minced garlic and the sauce with moisture, the oil splashes everywhere, and because the cucumbers are rolled in shape, there is a slight echo, which sounds very loud, and this sound of oil cucumbers comes from this.
Chongzhou is close to the canal, the shallow sea clams, transported here is still very fresh, but also because the preservation of the middle of the water to store, so that the sand in the clams almost spit clean, to make a spicy fried clams, the most suitable.
Stir-fry the chili pepper section in hot oil, fry the bean paste out of red oil, fry the chives, ginger and garlic, pour in the clams that have been boiled in water for a while, open their mouths slightly, rinse them twice, stir-fry evenly, add light soy sauce, cooking wine, sugar, simmer for a while, wait for the clams to be completely opened, put the chopped coriander and chives, and stir well, you can get out of the pot.
Pull out the yam, scrape the skin of the yam and cut it into hob pieces, put it in a hot oil pan and fry it until the skin is crispy and golden, and remove the oil. Leave a little base oil in the oil pot, put rock sugar, water, and osmanthus sugar to boil the soup until the soup changes color with a little light red, and the bubbles that come out change from large to small, pour the fried and controlled yam into the stirring, until the yam is completely covered with sugar juice, and can pull out the sugar shreds, you can put it on the plate.
And the last dish is scrambled eggs with tomatoes, which is an ordinary dish, and it is also an extremely home-cooked dish that many people make with a completely different taste.
Add salt to the eggs and beat them, quickly stir-fry them in a hot oil pan, fry them into tender eggs, put oil in the pot again, pour in the chopped tomatoes, add salt and sugar, stir-fry the juice, add a little water, when the tomatoes are completely boiled into the thick feeling of sauce, pour in the scrambled eggs, and sprinkle the chopped coriander when coming out of the pot.
Four side dishes were served with white rice.
At this time, Wu Rumin was already a little impatient, and when she saw Shen Xiangmiao sitting down and the food was served, she couldn't wait to pick up the chopsticks.
Shen Xiangmiao also picked up the rice bowl: "Time is in a hurry, I only made a few light side dishes, Brother Wu just tastes it." ”
"Then I'll try Brother Shen's craftsmanship." While Wu Rumin was talking, he had already tasted the oily cucumber first.
The cucumber slices, which are as thin as cicada wings, have been stained with sauce at this time, but hang a thin layer of oil, so when they have the fragrance of cucumbers, they bring rich fat and rich taste, and they are the hot grease poured at the end, which perfectly bursts out the fragrance of garlic and chili peppers, and the aroma of spices is more and more intense.
