Chapter 21 Braised Pork
Deng Yunsong and Deng Yunhua looked at each other in tacit understanding, and both saw the smile in each other's eyes, and then they started talking to each other.
"Second brother, we have all eaten it, so of course we know fried bee pupae are delicious!"
"Second brother, let me tell you, the fried bee pupae are so fragrant and crispy. After the first bite, I want to take the second bite. Once I eat it, I can't stop. It tastes amazing!"
"The fried bee pupae my dad made were really crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, sweet and delicious. I didn't know how much I ate that day. Now I can't help but drool when I think of the taste."
"Second brother, you don't know, right? Our dad's cooking is very delicious. Not only the fried bee pupae, but also the green pepper scrambled eggs and yellow fried pork. It's really delicious."
"Second brother, let me tell you..."
"Second brother..."
Hearing what his two brothers kept saying, Deng Yunheng was really shocked. It had only been a week since he came back, and there had been such a big change in his family.
In just a few days, I not only ate scrambled eggs with green peppers, but also meat twice and fried bee pupae once. This food was really good.
Especially for my father, who had never cooked before, to suddenly transform into a chef-level existence. This is simply incredible.
Originally, Deng Yunheng thought that he had a magical life at school this week and ate pork belly three times. He thought that when he came back from vacation, he would talk to his brothers about how delicious the pork belly at school was.
But now, after knowing the food at home this week, Deng Yunheng didn't want to talk about braised pork anymore.
No wonder the third and fourth children became so enthusiastic when they saw him coming back. They came here specifically to show off to him.
Deng Yunheng said angrily: "Third child, fourth child, you two are deliberately making me angry, right?"
Deng Yunsong chuckled and said: "Second brother, you misunderstood, how could we deliberately make you angry? Dad gave you two yuan last week. Your food at school should not be worse than at home. The fourth child and I are just simple I’m just reporting to you on the situation at home.”
Deng Yunheng couldn't help curling his lips when he heard this. We have been brothers for more than ten years, and who doesn't know who the other is?
While they were talking, the three brothers had already returned home.
Seeing his father smoking a hookah, Deng Yunheng greeted him: "Dad, I'm back!"
Deng Shirong snorted, blew out the cigarette from his mouth, and said, "Are you tired after carrying so much luggage and walking such a long distance? First wipe your sweat with a towel. I'll make braised pork for you tonight."
Deng Yunheng was instantly refreshed. He didn't expect that there would be delicious food waiting for him as soon as he came back. The depression that had just been angered by the third and fourth sons was also swept away.
Seeing his second son rushing in happily to wipe his sweat with a towel, Deng Shirong couldn't help but smile. He had high hopes for his most flexible son, and he must not let him take the same path of no return in his previous life.
In today's rural areas, whether it is cooking rice, porridge or stir-frying, the big iron pot is used, so Deng Shirong waited for his eldest daughter to finish cooking before he started making braised pork.
In the past few days, Deng Shirong's outstanding cooking skills have already conquered the stomachs of several children. Therefore, every time he cooks, the children who are idle like to gather around the stove to watch.
My second son, who just came back from school today, also joined in.
Although the kitchen of Deng Shirong's house was big enough, with so many people gathered in front of the stove, someone's view must have been blocked, so the three little ones, Yunsong, Yunhua and Yunheng, did not come to join in the fun.
After heating the pot, Deng Shirong added a little lard and said to his eldest daughter: "Azhen, I want to fry the sugar color first. You should be careful when lighting the fire. The firepower should not be too strong, otherwise it will burn easily."
"Dad, what is candy color?" Deng Yunzhen asked while controlling the fire.
Deng Shirong smiled and said: "The sugar color is made by frying white sugar. The braised pork made with sugar color looks rosy and bright, has a sweet taste, is fat but not greasy, you can learn from it."
In rural areas of this era, people can't eat meat more than once a year, and they don't even put oil in when frying vegetables, so most people in the village have no cooking skills at all.
As written in some novels, the family is obviously very poor and cannot eat meat once a year. However, the child who grew up in such a family (often one of the heroines) actually has extraordinary cooking skills, regardless of whether it is chicken or duck. Fish, meat or various seafood ingredients can easily make a meal that tastes as good as the chef's.
This is so fucking nonsense!
Hearing what their father said, Deng Yuntai and Deng Yunheng were just curious, but they had no intention of delving into it. In rural areas of this era, women were basically the ones cooking, and there were very few men.
Deng Yunzhen and Deng Yunzhu were more attentive and watched their father operate intently.
After the lard in the pot melted, Deng Shirong poured in the appropriate amount of sugar. The sugar was just bought today, so it took him a lot of effort. In addition to sugar, he also bought spices such as star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, dried chili peppers, and seasonings such as soy sauce and oyster sauce.
Deng Shirong said while stirring with a spatula: "When frying the sugar color, you must use low heat, and then stir constantly so that it will not burn easily."
Soon, the sugar melted and small yellow bubbles slowly began to appear.
Deng Shirong kept stirring with his hands and continued to explain: "Now small bubbles are starting to appear, and then big golden bubbles will start to appear. After the big golden bubbles disappear, when the sugar turns as red as chicken blood, this color of sugar is considered It was a success.”
The children held their breaths and watched their father operate. The white candy in the pot bubbled first with small bubbles and then with big bubbles just as their father said.
When the sugar boiled to chicken blood red, Deng Shirong decisively poured in the chopped pork belly and stir-fried evenly, and then said to his eldest daughter: "We can increase the heat a little!"
Deng Yunzhen responded, slightly increased the firepower, and then watched with curiosity as the color of the pork belly in the iron pot completely changed.
Deng Shirong stir-fried for a while, and when he saw that the pork belly was starting to seep out oil, he continued to explain: "Use medium-low heat to force the oil out of the pork belly. As you are doing now, you can add ginger, garlic, star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, dried chili peppers, etc. If you don’t like spicy food, you can leave it out.
After the spices are stir-fried to get the aroma, you can add an appropriate amount of soy sauce, stir-fry evenly and add an appropriate amount of boiling water, then cover the pot and bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low heat and simmer for about forty minutes, then add an appropriate amount of salt. , finally reduce the juice over high heat, and a delicious braised pork is ready! "
After finishing the operation and closing the lid of the pot, Deng Shirong looked at his two daughters and asked, "How are you doing? Do you remember all the steps?"
Deng Yunzhen was unsure and replied: "Dad, I remember this step, but I don't know if there will be any mistakes in the operation."
Deng Yunzhu has only cooked vegetables a handful of times. She shook her head and said: "I can't remember it. I'll learn it slowly when I have the opportunity in the future!"
Deng Shirong smiled and said: "If you do it again next time, I will be there to guide you and let you start doing it. You will naturally understand after doing it a few times!"
Deng Yunheng couldn't help but ask: "Dad, where did you learn how to make braised pork? It seems that our family has never eaten this dish!"
"Our family didn't have the conditions to eat this before. As for who we learned it from, they are no longer here, so it's okay not to mention it." At this point, Deng Shirong calmly changed the subject and said: "Okay, I want this braised pork too." After simmering for a while, there is no more wine at home. Xiao Song, take the money and go to the brigade to buy two bottles of wine. "
"Oh well."
First of all, I would like to thank you all for the rewards. This book is slowly gaining popularity. The effect of Shangguan's recommendation is too poor, and there is a risk of discontinuation at any time. The two snakes are so worried that they are not in the mood to type, because once the promotion is discontinued, the book will basically be useless. . Now that it’s a new week, the list has been rearranged. I ask you all for your support. If you have votes, vote. If you don’t have votes, post a few chapters. The most important thing is to read them every day. I hope you can accompany the two snakes through this most difficult period. Tough days, thank you!
