Chapter 156 Tang Xiaoya Learns to Cook 1
Xu Wanning brought some simple seasonings to Tang Xiaoya's house!
Tang Xiaoya was very excited. When she made the braised pork that looked good and tasted good, she would definitely give it to Brother Jingyun to give him a good slap in the face.
"Xu Zhiqing, what are you holding in your hand?"
Xu Wanning smiled slightly and handed her the seasonings she brought. These seasonings were essential for making braised pork.
"I brought some star anise, cinnamon, and some rock sugar, all for making the braised pork later!"
Tang Xiaoya was confused. Does making braised pork require so many ingredients? No wonder the braised pork she made last time was so unpalatable. The seasonings were not even complete enough.
"I... thought all you needed to make braised pork was pork belly and salt..."
"I was wondering why the braised pork I made last time was so bad!"
Xu Wanning was extremely shocked when she heard this. Whose braised pork only has salt and meat? How can this still be braised pork?
"Tang Zhiqing, then...did you put onions, ginger, and garlic?"
Tang Xiaoya shook her head pitifully. She didn't even know the onions, ginger and garlic before. She had been learning how to cook from the aunties in the village recently.
She just learned about onions, ginger and garlic, but she didn't know that so many things were needed to make braised pork!
Xu Wanning felt like she had no desire to live. This young lady had never done any housework before. Could she really learn it like this?
"Forget it, I'll teach you later!"
"The key to braised pork is rock sugar and seasoning. Without these, it's not braised pork. Do you understand?"
Tang Xiaoya nodded obediently. Only now did she realize how useless she was. No wonder Brother Jingyun didn't like her.
"Yeah, I understand!"
"Xu Zhiqing, you must teach me well. I must learn how to make braised pork!"
Xu Wanning closed her eyes resignedly. Alas, it was difficult. Teaching Tang Xiaoya to cook was not as easy as going to work!
"I'll try my best!"
.....................
Half an hour later, Xu Wanning stared blankly at the bowl of unrecognizable braised pork. What happened?
She left for three minutes to go to the toilet, and when she came back the braised pork had become like this.
"Tang Zhiqing, how did you mess up the braised pork?"
Tang Xiaoya smiled awkwardly. She really didn't mean to do that. She was just worried that the braised pork wouldn't be cooked through, so she added more firewood. But she didn't expect it to burn and smoke came out of the pot...
"Xu Zhiqing, I was wrong..."
"Please don't give up on me..."
Xu Wanning took a deep breath, feeling somewhat fortunate that she had only cooked half of the pork belly. If she had cooked all of it, this large piece of pork belly would have been wasted.
"Bring the remaining braised pork over here!"
“Do it again!”
Tang Xiaoya lowered her head, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into. Tang Xiaoya, it's so embarrassing that you can't even light a fire properly.
"Okay~"
"I'll get it!"
.....................
More than half an hour passed!
Under her guidance, Tang Xiaoya finally made a pot of braised pork that was delicious in color, aroma and taste.
