Chapter 262 262. Spicy Escargot
The rolling mountains of Shennong Mountain stretch as far as the eye can see, and the peaks are looming in the vast sea of clouds. Several people felt extremely comfortable intuitively.
Look at the mountains and small mountains at a glance.
“Look, the sun is coming out!”
Shen Xingqi pointed to the fiery red east and was very excited. When several people looked at it, they just saw the sun popping out, and the originally white and foggy sea of clouds suddenly disappeared. It turned fiery red and was so beautiful.
"Wow——"
At this moment, it seems that everything is at your feet.
A few people stayed at the top of the mountain for a long time before choosing another path to go down the mountain.
The spring water in Yinfeng Mountain is crystal clear. Cheng Xi noticed the snails in the water with a good look. Perhaps it was because the nearby residents did not like to eat them and they were very big.
"Xingqi, come here to pick up snails. We can add vegetables for lunch!"
The clear springs in the mountains are not polluted at all, and the snails are full of size. I don’t know how much better than modern times, they must be delicious!
Cheng Xi looked at the others, "Which of you will solve the problem of holding things?"
"Madam, I know how to weave baskets."
"Then leave it to me. You don’t need to make it too dense, as long as the snails can’t leak through.”
So the five people were divided into two groups. Su Zhan and Wang Shu were responsible for weaving small baskets. The three Shen family members gathered around the living water stream to pick up snails. When they showed up at the inn again, they brought back five or six kilograms of snails.
Cheng Xi handed the other dishes to Shen Xingqi and Wang Shu, then picked up the scissors and concentrated on cutting the snail tails.
The snails in the mountain spring water are originally clean, and the fishy smell is almost non-existent. Just rinse them once.
She took the green onions, ginger and garlic from the side and cut them into small pieces and set them aside. Pour a little green onion and ginger under cold water in the pot to remove the fishy smell, add the snails and cook them, fish them out and set aside.
Snails are delicious with spicy flavor. Fortunately, there is no shortage of seasonings and chilies in the kitchen. Even the bean paste is made by the common people themselves.
Cheng Xi reheated the pan with oil, added bean paste, Sichuan peppercorns, chili peppers, sugar, vinegar and other seasonings to stir-fry until fragrant, then added the snails and stir-fried them. The spicy and pungent taste mixed with the scent of the snails filled the entire kitchen.
"It smells so good. Can snails be so fragrant?"
Shen Xingqi thought of the wild fish in the entire river in Shenjia Village, and thought about the 108 ways to eat them. The expectations in my heart were suddenly filled. There is no doubt that everything her sister-in-law cooks is delicious.
"Is this enough?" She did!
"Finally, simmer over low heat until the snails are fragrant."
"Wait a little longer?"
"Wait a little longer, it'll be ready in a while, isn't it very simple?"< br>
“It’s simple, next time my sister-in-law takes a break, I can do it.”
A set of procedures may seem cumbersome to other people in Dayan Dynasty, but they are used to putting in various seasonings for cooking. It couldn't be easier for Shen Xingqi, she could figure it out at a glance.
The little girl was satisfied after learning another dish, and turned around to cook with more energy.
The two sisters-in-law and one Wang Shu were so busy that they smelled so good that all the customers outside the kitchen, whether they were the ones who hadn’t left yesterday or those who had just come to stay today, opened the door one after another and stayed in The lobby doesn't want to leave.
“It smells so good and has a pungent spicy taste. What kind of dish is this?”
“Shopkeeper, are you sure this is not made by the chef of the Qian family? "
Shopkeeper: "."
Boss, how many days will you stay here? You don’t want to check the accounts, so you should leave quickly!
Same inn, same corner, same people, different dishes.
When Wang Shu walked out of the kitchen with the last spicy snail dish, Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi, who had changed clothes, were already seated.
A man in brocade clothes holding a folding fan appeared in everyone's sight and smiled apologetically when he saw them.
"Excuse me, Zheng Yunze, my slaves offended many of my slaves yesterday. I hope you will bear with me."
