Chapter 79: Marinated Duck Eggs
The dishes for the evening are almost done, and it’s time to start dinner.
But Song Zhaozhao saw the duck eggs brought by Aunt Zhang next door, and thought that these duck eggs were not very good for cooking. Such a large basket of duck eggs was just enough to make salted duck eggs and preserved eggs, and later to make preserved egg and lean meat porridge.
, so that Father Song and Mother Song can have something better to eat in the morning.
Just do what he says, Song Zhaozhao first cleans each duck egg, and then wipes off all the water on it. Then he mixes the pickling powder, put the lime powder, alkali noodles, and plant ash into a basin, stir well and set aside.
.
"Little tailor, I'm back."
As soon as Song Zhaozhao was about to light a fire, Lu Jinmo and Shao Qingyuan came back. Shao Qingyuan was really interested. When he saw Song Zhaozhao was about to light a fire, he took over the matter from Song Zhaozhao. "I thought you gave up cooking?"
Zhao Zhao teased Lu Jin Mo Dao.
Lu Jinmo smiled awkwardly: "Am I back now?"
Lu Jinmo glanced at the kitchen and saw the pickled preserved egg powder that Song Zhaozhao had just mixed. "Little tailor, what are you talking about?"
Lu Jinmo was extremely curious. The powder looked like dirt. She couldn't believe that it could be used to make food.
Song Zhaozhao smiled proudly: "This is still a secret for the time being, just keep an eye on it."
Lu Jinmo watched Song Zhaozhao fry the salt in the pot. With an explosion, Song Zhaozhao stopped stir-frying. Song Zhaozhao poured water and black tea into the pot of fried salt and boiled it. Finally, he added
Lower the temperature of the boiled salt water, pour it into a basin containing a mixture of quicklime, alkali flour, and plant ash, and stir it into a sticky mud. "Little tailor, can this be eaten?"
Lu Jinmo couldn't believe it even more. "Of course, everything is ready, and it's time to wrap the eggs."
Although Lu Jinmo couldn't believe it, he still watched Song Zhaozhao put the duck eggs one by one and wrap them. "The ash should be wrapped as thickly as possible. Of course, it must be wrapped in rice husks at the end."
Song Zhaozhao wrapped the duck eggs in mud and rolled them on the rice husks, then put them into a small jar. After filling them, cover the mouth of the jar with a piece of paper or a large vegetable leaf, then put some salt and water into the yellow mud.
Mix it into a paste and seal it on paper or vegetable leaves without letting it breathe. It will be ready for consumption in about one and a half to two months.
"The preserved eggs are all wrapped. Just wash off the dust before eating. Now we're going to make the salted duck eggs." "Anything else?"
Song Zhaozhao washed and dried the remaining duck eggs, then put them into a jar. Soaked the washed duck eggs in white wine for a while, dried the duck eggs, and then added enough water, salt, and 10 slices of ginger.
, pepper, star anise, white sugar and white wine, etc.
Put it into the water and cook it, and stir it from time to time. "Putting white wine and sugar in the salted eggs is the key to producing oil from the salted duck eggs. This can accelerate the coagulation of the protein and squeeze out the oil in the yolk. The quality of the salted duck eggs will be improved.
Better, fresher." "Salted duck eggs?"
Song Zhaozhao nodded: "Yes, these are salted duck eggs, and the ones just now are preserved eggs. They can be used as supplements for future meals."
Although Lu Jinmo was still a little confused, she still chose to believe Song Zhaozhao.
Song Zhaozhao boiled the water for a while until the aroma came out. Then he poured the water into a jar filled with duck eggs and pressed it gently with a bamboo strip to prevent the egg body from floating. It is better for the water to cover the egg noodles.
Finally, Song Zhaozhao tied the mouth of the jar tightly with a plastic bag, sealed the jar, and stored it for about 25 days before it was basically marinated and ready to be eaten." The curing time of salted duck eggs and preserved eggs is similar.
"
Yes, when Song Zhaozhao comes back next time, everything will be marinated successfully.
Lu Jinmo watched Song Zhaozhao pickling salted duck eggs and preserved eggs with his mouth open almost the whole time, his face full of disbelief. "Little tailor, are the salted duck eggs and preserved eggs you made really edible?"
Lu Jinmo asked tentatively. "Of course, when we return to Beizhen Fusi, I will also pickle some for the adults in Beizhen Fusi. When the pickling is done, I will teach you how to make some that you don't have."
The best food I’ve ever seen.”
Hearing what Song Zhaozhao said, Lu Jinmo's eyes lit up. "That's great!!!"
Song Zhaozhao knocked Lu Jinmo's forehead: "Okay, now, let's eat first."
When they heard that they were having dinner, Yan Liluo and Brother Song became happy and hurriedly sat down at the dining table to wait.
"This fish is called Tea Herb Fish. It was made just now by Jin Mo. Dad and Mom, you should try it too." After saying that, Song Zhaozhao looked at Lu Chenmo and said, "Master Commander, you should try it too."
taste."
"The fish meat is very fresh, with a faint tea aroma, and the texture of the meat is smooth and tender. This dish is really delicious."
"Yes, the texture is different from the fish we have eaten before."
""
After Song's father and Song's mother tasted it, they were full of praise for the tea and vanilla fish, and they couldn't stop talking about it.
Unlike Song's father and Song's mother, Lu Chenmo was very silent after eating, so silent that his sense of existence was useless.
Of course, with Yan Liluo here, Lu Chenmo's presence will not be lacking.
"Chen Mo, what do you think of Jinmo's dish?" Yan Liluo joked.
Lu Chenmo had no need to speak.
"Brother, what's wrong with you? Why don't you speak?"
Lu Chenmo didn't praise Lu Jinmo for the dish he just cooked, which made Lu Jinmo a little disappointed.
"Jin Mo, your brother is jealous." Yan Liluo said with a playful smile.
"Jealous?"
"?"
Except for Song Zhaozhao and Yan Liluo, everyone was a little confused.
"Yes, Jinmo, think about it. Your brother has brought you up so much, and he has never heard you say that you want to learn how to cook for him. Now that you are getting married and becoming a woman, I want to do it for you.
How can your brother not be jealous when your future husband-in-law cooks?"
Hearing Yan Liluo's words, Lu Jinmo seemed to suddenly realize, and softly called Lu Chenmo: "Brother?"
Lu Chenmo was a little embarrassed after being exposed, so he took a piece of potato chips from a dry pot and ate them in his mouth.
"Don't listen to this kid Yan Liluo's nonsense. I just think that although Jinmo's dishes are good, they are still a bit inferior to Miss Song. For example, these potatoes are very delicious."
Song Zhaozhao: ""
Lu Jinmo: ""
Song Zhaozhao: Lu Chenmo, you are trying to save face for yourself by dragging me in, even if you drag me in, you only said two words when you complimented me on the delicious food. You are too uneducated!" I
Look, it’s not that my brother ate something wrong, he’s trying to make fun of our little tailor now.”
Now Lu Jinmo is a little jealous.
Song Zhaozhao:""
