Chapter 107 What a sin! I, the bunny, was destined to be doomed!
Zhou Sinian really didn't have time to make candied haws, so Ming Dai took him to the space to sort out the things to be sent to the capital.
I have to go to the county town to deliver mushrooms soon, and it’s a good opportunity to bring back the things from the capital.
Mingdai sorted out some corn millet, soybeans, millet, dates, hazelnuts, pecans and chestnuts, and packed them all into half a bag of each.
On the list of specialties provided by Mingdai, what attracted Director Niu and his wife were mainly mountain products and dried meat.
Hazel mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms, black fungus and dried wild vegetables, plus a bag of dried meat, are a very impressive holiday gift in the capital.
The jerky is from the space warehouse, mainly wild boar meat.
Mingdai's meat didn't taste very good, it was a bit dry and fishy, but others didn't think so. In the days when pork had to be snatched away, wild boar was also very popular.
Everything has been taken care of, and they are just waiting for Master Liu San to pick them up to go to the county town tomorrow.
After finishing, Mingdai went to the kitchen to check. She had soaked the dried rabbit that she had exchanged at the grass market last night and planned to eat it for lunch today.
Outside, Zhou Sinian was giving the dog Sled a bath.
Looking at the sled covered with foam, Mingdai felt a little powerless. A good person has turned into a naughty child. How can she change herself?
"Zhou Sinian, there's no dog. Are you here to pull this?"
Zhou Sinian took a small brush and cleaned the dog sled carefully, paying attention to every detail.
"I have a dog."
This is the second time he has said this.
Ming Dai suddenly thought of the beef ribs: "You have it? Where did you get it?!!"
Zhou Sinian flushed with a hose, and foam flew everywhere.
"I won the fight."
Ming Dai frowned: "Fight? With whom? When?"
Zhou Sinian thought for a moment: "Last time. With whom? I don't know who, but I know where they are!"
. . . . . .
Mingdai breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that someone must have raised a dog, and after he had a fight with them, the family agreed to give the dog to him to play with.
"Okay then, when you finish your work, go to the vegetable garden and pick some celery and coriander."
Zhou Sinian blinked and asked, "What are you having for lunch?"
"Eat rabbit, beer rabbit, and stew rice."
Zhou Sinian tilted his head and thought for a moment: "Rabbit, I have eaten rabbit."
Ming Dai was curious: "Have you eaten it?"
This was the first time he took the initiative to mention something he had eaten.
Zhou Sinian nodded: "I ate it. I put it in the bottom of the pot and cooked it. But it just wouldn't listen and kept running away. I have to stop it."
Ming Dai trembled and asked cautiously, "Hey, why didn't you bleed the rabbit before you burned it?"
I clearly remember bleeding the sheep, and Liu Dazhu was almost scared to death.
Zhou Sinian stopped what he was doing and gestured to Mingdai with a beaming face: "Rabbits don't taste good, but they smell good! And they are prettier than sheep, with fluffy fur that's really nice to touch.
I saw some villagers catching one, and they said it was a rabbit and had to be roasted. I also caught one, bled it, and peeled off the skin, which made it look ugly. It also tasted terrible when roasted, smelling fishy and hard to bite.
Later, I found that it was just right to roast it with the hair on. Although it still tasted bad, it smelled very delicious when roasted!
If you like, I'll catch a rabbit in the summer and roast it for you to smell."
Who wants to hear this?
What kind of brain circuit is this!!
Whose roasted rabbit is only for smelling but not eating?
What you smell is the smell of burning protein produced by burning rabbit hair. How can it not smell good?
Even if it smells good, you can’t roast it alive!
Meeting you, the rabbit is in big trouble!
Ming Dai took a deep breath and told Zhou Sinian righteously: "You can't do this! We can eat rabbits, but we can't abuse them. You roasted the rabbit alive. Don't you think it hurts?"
Zhou Sinian was a little unconvinced. He glanced at Ming Dai and muttered softly, "It didn't even say it hurt."
Ming Dai: . . . . .
"Anyway, you are not allowed to roast any animals alive anymore! Got it? Whatever you want to eat, kill it and let me cook it. We can eat it, but we have to let it go to paradise happily, otherwise the gods will punish us!"
When Zhou Sinian heard her say that the gods would punish, his face changed instantly. He was now afraid that the gods' cave would be taken away and he would be hungry again.
So Zheng Zhong nodded: "Okay, I'll remember that. From now on, I'll let you do all the killing!"
Mingdai rolled her eyes: So let the gods punish me? Have you forgotten that the gods' cave is right here with me!
Finally, Zhou Sinian hesitated for a moment and suggested to Mingdai seriously: "Why not eat sheep? Sheep are not good-looking, but they are delicious. Silly roe deer are also OK. They are a little stupid, but they are also delicious. I promise to kill them with one knife and never let them suffer!
Rabbit... Rabbit looks good, but it really doesn’t taste good.”
Mingdai sighed and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Finally, she patted Zhou Sinian's shoulder as he squatted down and said, "Let's arrange acupuncture when we return from the county town."
You can't be so stupid anymore, it's so scary!
Zhou Sinian touched the dent on his head and pursed his lips: "Okay, when you prick me, choose a thinner needle, not too thick."
Ming Dai looked at him sympathetically: "I'll try my best."
After letting Zhou Sinian clean the sled and pick some celery and coriander from the field, Mingdai returned to the kitchen in a daze.
Looking at the dried rabbit soaking in the water and thinking of the miserable condition of the rabbit that died at the hands of Zhou Sinian, it was hard to tell who was more pitiful.
What a sin!
Forget it, the rabbits are so cute, I might as well stew them in beer and send them away with a fragrant aroma!
Cut the soaked rabbit into small pieces according to its parts.
Heat oil in a pan, add onions, ginger, garlic and dried chilies when the oil is hot. Mingdai only plans to give Zhou Sinian a medicinal bath these few days, so she put more chilies.
After stir-frying until fragrant, put the dried rabbit in, pour a circle of light soy sauce and vinegar along the edge of the pot, and use dark soy sauce to color it.
Mingdai didn't find any fermented bean paste in the warehouse, so she planned to make some herself one day.
Scoop a small spoonful of fermented black beans into the pot, stir-fry until fragrant, pour in two bottles of beer, cover the pot and start stewing.
After washing the sled, Zhou Sinian came in with a small vegetable basket and stood by the island counter, sniffing while picking celery. He did not touch the coriander and always picked it with gloves on.
Ming Dai took the basket and said, "I'll do it, you go steam the rice."
Zhou Sinian obediently scooped the rice and washed it, then started to order food again: "Mingdai, let's go out for rice again. I want to eat that dry rice with kimchi."
Ming Dai picked off the celery leaves and said, "That's called Guoba. Let's eat it when we get back from the county. I want to eat it too."
You can try making crab roe hotpot. We are going to make fried meatballs before the New Year, so you can make them at the same time.
The rice is cooked and the beer rabbit in the casserole is also ready.
Mingdai opened the lid of the pot, dripped a few drops of Sichuan pepper oil into it, put the celery segments in and mixed them evenly, then covered the pot and simmered for another two minutes.
Two minutes later, Mingdai opened the lid, and the strong aroma made them both swallow their saliva.
Zhou Sinian held up the plate and handed it to her, looking very impatient, not showing any sign of disdain for the rabbit just now.
Mingdai first served him a plate and then served herself another, the difference being that hers did not contain cilantro.
The rabbit meat has been dried in the winter and has become very firm. In addition, since it is a wild rabbit and has received a lot of exercise, the meat is very chewy.
Not only can beer remove the fishy smell of rabbit very well, but the carbon dioxide in it can change the tissue structure of the meat, making the meat soft and rotten, and break down collagen, so that the meat can be cooked faster.
The rabbit meat is not only delicious and chewy, but also easy to remove from the bones without getting stuck in your teeth.
Served with celery covered in gravy, it is crisp and refreshing, and the unique malt aroma of beer adds to the flavor.
"ah!"
"ah!"
The two of them sat paralyzed on the chairs, looking at the empty plates and bowls, truly completing the "empty plates" action of eating up all the food and rice.
Zhou Sinian said excitedly: "Mingdai, when the grass grows, let's go catch rabbits. I know where they live."
Ming Dai thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's catch some rabbits and raise them in the space. Wild rabbits are too dry, and domestic rabbits are fatter and more fragrant!"
Zhou Sinian's eyes were full of stars as he held hands and spun in circles: "Okay! Okay! Okay!"
After dinner, Zhou Sinian cleaned the kitchen, and Mingdai went to the grass to look at the beef ribs.
Da Pai and Xiao Pai were able to stand up now. They were eating the sweet potato vines cut by Zhou Sinian. They were not afraid when they saw her coming, and looked at her with their still cloudy eyes.
Mingdai checked them and found that they were recovering well. As long as they could eat and drink, they would not die.
Mingdai put some salt in the large basin of water for them to drink and went to the cornfield.
The corn has already sprouted at this time, and because of the temperature in the space, it has grown very tall. After a while, we will have fresh corn to eat.
Finally, Mingdai looked at the pond that was temporarily used as a bathhouse and thought about finding some fish to raise. There were only salted fish in the warehouse, and she wanted to eat fresh fish heads stewed with tofu.
When I came back, I saw the dog sled that Zhou Sinian had put in the corner to dry.
Zhou Sinian not only washed it clean, but also tied the red gauze scarf given to him by Mingdai on the front of the car.
True love, no doubt!
