Fortunately, the eight eyes were not lined up in a horizontal row, otherwise he would have thought it was the reincarnation of a spider spirit.
"Brother-in-law, it's already three quarters past three in the afternoon. Let's see when you can prepare the delicious food."
Um, it's 3:45 pm? "Ahem, it's my brother-in-law's problem."
Poor brother-in-law, I haven’t eaten yet, and... no one called me?
At this time, Li Biyao on the side stared at Li Xiuzhu closely and suddenly asked, "Do you feel the energy?"
Li Xiuzhu was stunned, but it was not surprising, after all, Li Biyao was also a third-rate master.
At the same time, he also knew why his three cousins didn't bother him anymore.
"Yes, the feeling of energy that just came."
Li Biyao felt a little strange when she heard this.
"Strange, you are already 17, why do you feel the energy when practicing martial arts at this age?"
Li Xiuzhu paused when he heard this. This... investigating me?
"But don't practice outside in the future. Practice in your room with the door closed. Otherwise, if you are disturbed during your practice, it will be easy to get a sideburn."
"At the very least, you will be injured, or even die."
Li Xiuzhu nodded when he heard it, but he didn't take it too seriously. Bei Ming Divine Art was different from other martial arts. The internal force was dispersed throughout the body's acupuncture points.
Even if you are suddenly interrupted by someone, the internal force will only be instantly taken back to the adjacent acupoints, so there is no need to worry about anything happening.
But Li Xiuzhu naturally would not explain this.
"Thanks!"
After thanking him, Li Xiuzhu looked at Fu Yunshuang and asked, "Have you killed the chicken?"
Fu Yunshuang nodded and said, "I bought ten and asked the chef to kill five of them first."
Hey, isn't my roast chicken ready? Li Xiuzhu suddenly felt better. Only delicious food and beautiful women should not be wasted.
Li Xiuzhu brought the four girls to the kitchen. The room was immediately filled with the smell of meat, and the four girls quickly ran out.
At this time, the chef Bao Da, who had been waiting on the side, said, "Sir, I heard from the second young lady that you are going to cook something today. I wonder if we can watch you cook it?"
This was not what Bao Da really thought. At this moment, Bao Da was cursing in his heart.
What is this cheap son-in-law doing? Just eat, drink and have fun every day.
What? You still want to come to their kitchen and steal work?
This is too unkind.
Li Xiuzhu didn't think too much about it. He thought he would never miss the free labor.
Li Xiuzhu immediately said, "Okay, have you plucked all the chicken feathers? Bring four people with you to do it with me."
"Okay, let's learn a little too."
Li Xiuzhu looked at the chicken killed in the kitchen and nodded with satisfaction.
Not bad, not a single chicken feather, and the chicken is a good one, it looks like a free-range chicken from Qingyuan.
"Prepare some food, including carrots, garlic, ginger, coriander, celery, green onions, honey, and oranges."
this……
Who puts oranges in their cooking? Isn't that just nonsense?
Aren’t carrots only eaten when stewing lamb?
Celery, if you put too little salt in it, it won’t taste good.
And honey, is this for dessert?
But he actually came to see the fun, so naturally he wouldn't remind me.
Li Xiuzhu looked at the seasoning boxes around him and found salt and five-spice powder. This was basically what you would use to make a roast chicken.
"Oh, and prepare some fennel, cumin, mustard, peppercorns, and sesame seeds for me as well."
It’s a pity that there are no chili peppers in this era. If there were chili peppers, life would definitely be more perfect.
Wow, that’s a lot of things you want.
However, these things can really be found, but Ziran needs to go to the West Market to buy some from the Hu merchants.
"This requires a lot of materials, many of which we don't have at home. I have to ask someone to go to the West Market to buy some."
"First arrange for a few people to take a clean board and move it out."
"good."
To be honest, a chicken had just been slaughtered in the kitchen. Not only the four girls couldn't stand the smell, but he couldn't stand it either. The air would be much better if they moved out.
At first, he wanted to only make grilled chicken wings and chicken legs.
But he didn't know what to do with the remaining meat, so he just roasted it whole.
As soon as Li Xiuzhu came out, four women, big and small, surrounded him.
Xiao Baozhu said with lingering fear: "Brother-in-law, this smell is too bad. How can the chicken be delicious?"
Fu Yunshuang laughed and said, "I never see you skip a bite on weekdays."
Baozhu thought about it after hearing this and felt that the chickens would be delicious when cooked.
"Anyway, I won't go in there. It smells terrible."
There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!
Li Xiuzhu nodded in agreement.
"It's okay, I'll ask them to move out and we'll do it outside."
Li Xiuzhu then said, "But before that, we have to make a stove."
"stove?"
"Yes, we need to roast the chicken. We can find some tiles and some mud."
"It's still early anyway, we can see who makes the prettier stove."
Fu Baozhu's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she clapped her hands immediately, "Hey, I've wanted to play with mud for a long time, but my sisters wouldn't let me. Now I can play with it as much as I want."
Well, didn't I unlock this girl's nature?
However, Li Xiuzhu doesn't think there is anything wrong with playing in the mud.
Because the roof needs to be repaired occasionally, there are tiles at home, and mud is an inexhaustible supply.
After Li Xiuzhu and four women made five stoves of different shapes, all the materials were basically ready.
After sending the two dirty little girls to wash up, Li Xiuzhu and the chef began to process the chicken.
At this time, Fu Yunshuang and Li Biyao did not leave. They were watching Li Xiuzhu busying himself quietly from a distance.
When Li Xiuzhu was cutting the chicken, he suddenly discovered that all the chicken's internal organs were gone.
Seeing this, Li Xiuzhu felt a little regretful.
He also knew that people of this era didn't eat those things, but they were all good things.
Should I let them stay and cook it themselves next time? Never mind. Five chickens and only one string of chicken hearts. It’s not worth the trouble.
What a pity, if I had a refrigerator I could have kept it.
First, rub salt and five-spice powder on the surface of the chicken continuously until it is slightly warm.
First, put in two wine cups of Huadiao wine to remove the fishy smell, then mash all the fruits and vegetables into a paste, add a certain amount of water, and marinate the five chickens separately.
The normal marinating time is two hours in the refrigerator, but now there is no refrigerator, so I can only marinate it at room temperature for half an hour.
Li Xiuzhu looked at what others had made and after seeing that there was no major problem with the concentration of the sauce, he went to the pond and got ten large lotus leaves.
"Brother-in-law, aren't you making roast chicken? Do you want lotus leaves?"
While cleaning, Li Xiuzhu asked, "I wonder if you have ever heard of beggar's chicken."
Beggar's chicken? The two girls were stunned when they heard the name. Could this be the food for beggars?
However, when Bao Da heard this, his expression changed slightly.
"Hmm, is this how beggar's chicken is made?"
Li Xiuzhu glanced at Bao Da and smiled. He also knew about beggar's chicken. It seemed that this chef knew a lot.
“No, but the steps will be used.”
There is no other way. The chicken at the beginning is not suitable for roasting over open flames, and there is no tin foil now. The beggar's chicken method is the only practical one.
