Chapter 50 Pork Jerky



Scrub the pig stomach with flour for a few minutes, rinse it clean, then rub it with a spoonful of vinegar for a few more minutes, and rinse it clean. Pig stomach treated in this way will have no fishy smell and will be very clean.

Jiang Li always uses warm water to rinse, otherwise she might not be able to move her hands before she's even finished cleaning them.

Put the ingredients in a pot of cold water, add ginger slices, Sichuan peppercorns, and cooking wine. Bring to a boil, skim off the foam, and then remove the ingredients. Finally, cut the mixture into strips.

Heat oil in a wok, add scallions, ginger, and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant. Then add shredded pork tripe and stir-fry for three minutes. Finally, add enough boiling water to cover the pork tripe.

Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer and cook for another hour.

While the pig's stomach was stewing, Jiang Li cooked rice for several people in a rice cooker. Actually, rice cooked in a large pot would be more fragrant, but since there was only one pot left to stew, he had to use the rice cooker.

Then, the lean meat that had been removed from the meat was put into a large basin for washing, and then dried with a clean towel to remove excess water.

Pour the prepared seasonings into another large bowl, then put the washed pork in, stir well, and marinate for about two hours.

Once the marinating process begins, the pork tripe soup on the other side will be almost ready. Add the yam and salt and continue simmering for about half an hour. When it's almost done, add the goji berries and it's done.

The pork tripe soup is kept simmering on the pot over low heat. When you want to eat it, you just scoop some into a bowl so you can always have hot soup.

The soup was ready, and he called everyone to eat. They immediately put down what they were doing.

"It smells so good! I could smell it earlier, and it almost distracted me from preparing the wild boar meat."

Before even opening the pot lid, Fu Xiaxia was already craving it.

"Me too, it smells so good."

Shi Yuan felt the same way.

While the others were still enjoying the aroma, Fang Qingxun had already grabbed a bowl, opened the pot lid, and started ladling out the soup.

"Fang Qingxun, you are too cunning."

Fu Xiaxia was surprised that Fang Qingxun acted so quickly, so she quickly picked up a bowl and filled it with water as well.

"Who told you to be slow? Whose fault is it?"

However, Fu Xiaxia was already drinking soup at this time and didn't have time to pay attention to Fang Qingxun.

"It's great that there are still yams to eat," Shi Yuan remarked from the side.

Seeing this, the others didn't even serve themselves rice, but instead drank a bowl of soup.

After drinking a bowl, my body felt much warmer.

After drinking several bowls of soup, everyone slowly began to eat.

After finishing their meal, the group planned to rest in the living room for a while before continuing to deal with the wild boar.

After half a day, all they had done was deal with one wild boar.

After everyone had rested, Shi Lin, Shi Yuan, and Fang Qingxun continued to deal with the wild boar.

Jiang Li, Gu Jin, and Fu Xiaxia then skewered and hung up the meat that Jiang Li had just marinated.

The weather is not good for drying meat now, so Jiang Li and the others hung the meat in the living room and then used a heater to blow on the dried meat. They had to blow the meat until it was very dry and hard, which would take a long time.

The group continued to clear the wild boar, just like Fang Qingxun and the others.

In the afternoon, everyone continued processing, then marinating and air-drying.

The first batch of meat was dried until evening before Jiang Li started steaming it. After steaming, it had to be dried again before it could be eaten and could be stored for a longer time.

For dinner, there was still some pork tripe soup left from lunch, so Jiang Li added a braised pork rib dish.

Pig ears and pig tails can be used in cold dishes or stir-fries, but wild boar ears are actually smaller than regular pig ears and are unusable.

The wild boar's head was even uglier than that of a domestic pig, covered in bristles and tusks. Jiang Li felt helpless about the other parts of the head, and couldn't bring himself to do it, so he decided to exchange the head for points.

Jiang Li finished his dinner, took the food for a while, and then went back. After that, all he had to do was wait for it to air dry, steam it, and then air dry it again. Fu Xiaxia and the others could handle that.

They slowly returned to the small building together, and upon entering the downstairs unit, they heard noises coming from upstairs.

It sounds like Lele crying.

Jiang Li hurriedly went upstairs, and Gu Jin, seeing that Jiang Li was in a hurry, followed her upstairs.

Upon arriving on the third floor, they found He Shan holding a knife, confronting a man and a woman at the door. One of her arms appeared to be injured. An An had started crying because he saw his mother was injured.

"Mom, are you alright?" An'an asked worriedly, tugging at He Shan's clothes.

"Don't be afraid, An'an, Mommy will protect you."

He Shan shielded An An behind her.

"Be smart and hand over the stuff obediently, or next time it won't just be your arm that gets hurt."

The man held the knife in his hand and spoke menacingly to He Shan.

"Why waste time talking to her, husband? Let's just go for it and see how long she can hold out."

The woman was yelling from the side, and after she finished speaking, the two of them were about to attack.

He Shan gripped the knife tightly in her hand nervously.

Seeing this, Jiang Li wanted to step forward to help, but Gu Jin, who was standing nearby, pulled Jiang Li back.

"I'll do it."

After saying that, she stepped forward to stop the man. Of course, Jiang Li wouldn't let Gu Jin do it alone, so she also stepped forward to stop the woman.

The two men moved quickly and subdued the two men in no time, dropping their knives to the ground.

"Who are you? Let me go! I'm telling you, mind your own business!"

The man on the ground was still shouting, but Gu Jin knocked him unconscious with the back of her knife. The woman next to her saw this and quickly pleaded.

"We just wanted to find some food and supplies, we didn't mean to hurt anyone, we won't do it again, please let us go."

Jiang Li ignored her nonsense and knocked her unconscious. She had heard everything; neither of them were good people.

"Sister, they're bullying Mom." An'an recognized this sister and knew she had helped her mother.
