Chapter 178 Mutton Soaked Bun
"Exactly." Xia Mingyue agreed with a smile.
“But this mutton steamed bun is very particular.” Fang Linwang’s eyes narrowed into thin slits, “I think you are a very young lady, you can really do this. Does it taste authentic?”
“Is it authentic? Master Fang tastes it.” You’ll know it now.” I guess Master Fang didn’t eat too much.”
"It's better..."
Xia Mingyue hesitated and looked at Fang Linwang with a smile.
The smile is full of cunning.
Fang Linwang walked back with his hands behind his back, stretched out his hand to open all the low fence doors, and glanced at Lu Qiyan and others angrily, "You all come in!"
Okay. In agreement, Lu Qiyan handed over his hand and said, "Thank you very much."
Then, he helped Xia Mingyue move all the charcoal stoves, earthen pots and other things outside to the courtyard.
Fang Linwang had already moved out a square table and a few stools, then went into the kitchen and took out a chopping board and a kitchen knife for Xia Mingyue to use.
After finishing his work, Fang Linwang sat aside and watched Xia Mingyue busy with interest.
This mutton steamed bun should actually be called beef and mutton steamed bun. The soup base should also be cooked with beef, mutton and their bones according to a certain ratio. Only in this way can the soup be truly delicious. , full of mellow flavor and endless aftertaste.
It’s just that in this era, fields are the foundation of the country, and cattle are very important tools in field cultivation. The government has issued orders that no cattle are allowed to be slaughtered, regardless of their status, and beef is not allowed to be eaten at will. Therefore, You can’t buy beef at all, and you can’t eat it.
Therefore, Xia Mingyue had to use all mutton and mutton bones for the mutton soup steamed buns this time. Due to the sudden incident, there were not enough seasonings and side dishes on hand, so even the ingredients, side dishes, and stewing time had to be improved.
The thick soup is boiling. Add the sliced cooked mutton, vermicelli, fungus, etc. and boil for a while. Then add the broken buns and seasonings in turn. After simmering for a while, pour some cooked mutton oil.
In this way, a bowl of mutton steamed buns is ready. When eating, you only need to add coriander, chili oil, etc. according to your personal taste.
But when Xia Mingyue was making mutton steamed buns, she made three specifications based on the old Sun's beef and mutton steamed steamed buns that she had eaten in modern times, with different proportions of soup and steamed buns.
The first type of "dry soaking" is to cook the steamed buns so that the soup is completely soaked in the steamed buns. The second type is to cook the steamed buns until they are crispy and smooth, with some soup still left in the bowl. "The third type is steamed buns cooked in wide soup, with a mountain-like pile of steamed buns in the middle, and the bowl is surrounded by a "water siege" of soup.
Three bowls of mutton steamed buns were served on the table one after another, and Xia Mingyue placed the prepared coriander, chili oil and other ingredients aside, "Master Fang, try it?"
Fang Linwang looked at the three complete dishes Different mutton dips The slightly frowned brows suddenly relaxed, "You little lady, you really have a lot of skills!"
After that, I couldn't wait to take the wooden spoon in my left hand and the chopsticks in my right hand, and started to taste the first bowl. rise.
The buns in the first bowl are chewy and tough. Because they have been cooked in the soup, the buns are a little sticky, but the texture is very smooth. When you bite into it, the buns absorb the broth and are full of flavor. And you will definitely not feel choked.
The buns in the second bowl were of the right size, smooth and softer than those in the first bowl, and tasted more aromatic.
And the third bowl, soup with steamed buns and steamed buns, was fragrant and smooth, with an excellent taste...
Fang Linwang even added a little chili oil to it, which made it taste more spicy and appetizing, even more so in the winter. I was sweating profusely after eating it raw.
“This mutton steamed bun is delicious!” Fang Linwang smacked his tongue repeatedly and even burped with some satisfaction.
Three bowls of mutton soaked buns, Xia Mingyue only used one bun in each bowl, but the soup and meat were very filling, Fang Linwang was completely full now, but three bowls of mutton soaked buns The buns were not completely finished yet. If there is any leftover delicious food, it would be a huge waste.
Especially the mutton steamed buns made from mutton that he loved, so he had to put them all into his stomach.
So, even though he was clearly feeling bloated, Fang Linwang still insisted on slowly putting the remaining steamed buns and soup in the bowl into his mouth.
He even sighed, "It would be better if we had some more sugared garlic."
If you eat meat without garlic, the flavor will be reduced by half.
Especially this mutton, without the addition of garlic, the delicious taste will be slightly inferior.
It's just that garlic is spicy. After eating one clove, it often feels spicy and spicy, and you can't eat it anymore.
But sugar garlic is different. It is full of sweetness and retains a certain degree of spiciness. It tastes very refreshing and can add the deliciousness of meat. More importantly, it can relieve gluttony at this time. The greasy feeling after too much lamb.
Fang Linwang felt that if he was given a small plate of sugar and garlic, he would be able to eat up the remaining mutton soup and steamed buns in one go.
The kind that doesn’t even require washing the dishes!
“Don’t tell me, I really have this sweet garlic.” Xia Mingyue said with a smile.
The sugared garlic pickled at home tastes great, but because she has to wait until new garlic comes out next time, Xia Mingyue is reluctant to eat so much, so she only picks up a few at a time, and now she still has a small jar.
Originally I planned to open it during the Chinese New Year and enjoy it.
“Really?” Fang Linwang was overjoyed, “Where is it?”
Take it out quickly!
Now!
"But not here." Xia Mingyue said, "If Master Fang wants to..."
"I know!" Fang Linwang interrupted Xia Mingyue, "If you want to eat sweet garlic, I want to If you want to eat this mutton steamed bun again, you have to help your man build a bridge, right?” He sat down and nodded with a smile, "Exactly."
"This pot of mutton soup and sugar and garlic will cost me this trip. To be honest, this deal is not very good." It’s a good deal.”
Fang Linwang looked at Lu Qiyan, “Do you have the final say on building the bridge?”
"There is an order from the top. I am fully responsible for the construction of the bridge on the Yongfeng River this time. Even the people who helped build the bridge this time are all in the military and can be at my disposal." Lu Qiyan answered truthfully.
“It’s not like you have anything to do with the county government, so it’s pretty good.”
Fang Linwang nodded, “You seem to be a gentle man, I guess you are a reasonable person, you don’t have such a big body Although he has the smell of power and money, he still thinks of this way to ask me to help him. I guess he is a smart person."
"Forget it, I have been idle at home for a while, and my old bones are all numb. I’m a little stiff. It’s a good idea to go out and loosen your muscles. I’ll just go with you.”
This is considered inviting someone.
Lu Qiyan breathed a sigh of relief, "Excuse me, Master Fang."
Fang Linwang squinted his eyes again, "But let's make an agreement first. I won't live with you, and I have to drink a bowl every day. This hot mutton soup, and this matter of building the bridge, I have the final say.”
