Chapter 142: Educated Youth Tang Xiaoya
In the evening, Han Jinghuai came early and grilled his specialty, roasted lamb legs. Suddenly, the whole yard was filled with the aroma of barbecue!
Zhao Erniu also brought some food prepared by his mother at home, as well as some mountain products.
"Xu Zhiqing, I can smell the delicious food right at the door. What delicious food did you make today?"
"Why is there so much meat?"
Xu Wanning smiled when she heard that. She had made a little more today on purpose because Zhao Erniu and Han Jinghuai both had big appetites.
In addition, we have to send some to the captain’s house. How can we eat it if we make less? There is still a lot of goat meat in the space anyway!
"I made mutton soup, Han Jinghuai roasted lamb legs, and I also prepared hot pot. You can try it later to see if you like it!"
Zhao Erniu smiled innocently. There was so much meat that he felt a little embarrassed. Xu Zhiqing was too generous. He always gave him enough meat!
"Xu Zhiqing, what is hot pot? Why haven't I heard of it?"
Lin Qiqi's face was full of excitement, recalling the hot pot she had eaten in Beijing before, which was really delicious.
"Hot pot is really delicious, you'll know when you try it!"
Xu Wanning made some dipping sauce, but since she didn't have sesame paste, she had to make some peanut butter herself.
Although the hot pot dipping sauce prepared is not as complete as Hou's, it should still taste good!
Five people gathered together to eat hot pot. Everyone was eating enthusiastically and had no time to talk.
Xu Wanning always felt that there were still some vegetables missing in the hot pot. There were not enough varieties of vegetables in Beicheng at this time of year. She had some vegetables in her space, but unfortunately she couldn't take them out.
Zhao Erniu ate the mutton hotpot in big mouthfuls. The red peppers in the hotpot made it taste particularly delicious. Although it was very spicy, he became more and more addicted to it.
"It's so spicy! This thing is really delicious, but it's a little too spicy!"
Han Jinghuai's handsome face turned slightly red from the spiciness. The numbing and spicy mutton hotpot was very satisfying to eat, but it was too spicy.
"Ningning, please use less chili next time!"
Xu Wanning smiled. She loved spicy hot pot the most, so she added some extra chili peppers when frying the hot pot base.
She herself didn't find it very spicy, forgetting that everyone else couldn't eat spicy food.
"Next time I'll prepare a clear soup hot pot for you. It's not spicy, but it tastes good too!"
Lin Qiqi's mouth turned red from the spiciness. She used to eat clear soup hot pot in her hometown, but this was her first time eating this kind of spicy hot pot!
"Ningning, this hot pot you made is still the best. It tastes much better than the clear soup hot pot you treated me to before!"
Li Wenjing's face was covered in sweat, and she couldn't help but praise:
"Xu Wanning, I really admire you. Everything you cook tastes so good!"
"But why didn't you make this hot pot earlier?"
Xu Wanning rolled her eyes. She also wanted to finish it earlier, but making hot pot requires a lot of seasonings, and it took her a long time to get them all. How could it be that easy?
"You think I don't want to make it? The seasonings needed for this hot pot base can't be bought here. Things like the Sichuan peppercorns are all picked by me in the mountains. It takes more than a dozen ingredients to make a hot pot base!"
Li Wenjing shook her head after hearing this. She had wanted to learn it before, but forget it. She couldn't even understand a few simple seasonings, let alone this complicated hot pot base.
"I'd rather not learn it. Next time you make hot pot, I'll be responsible for providing you with vegetables and meat, and you can just let me get some of the hot pot base."
Lin Qiqi looked expectant. She thought so too. She really couldn't learn this.
"Yes, yes, Ningning, next time we make hot pot, Li Wenjing and I will pay for the meat. You can just let us have some of the hot pot base!"
Xu Wanning smiled playfully. She would only make it when she really wanted to eat it. Otherwise, she didn't really want to make such a complicated thing.
"It's not impossible, it depends on my mood when the time comes!"
