Chapter 317 The whole family makes sausages together
Niu Xi and Yue Ji worked together to move the sealed jar to the open space against the wall.
The pork belly has been marinated, and the next most time-consuming and labor-intensive step is chopping the meat.
Nowadays, every household likes to make sausages by chopping the meat themselves, adjusting the flavor, and then sending it to the processing place to stuff it with pig intestines.
Some people even fill it by hand.
The flavor of each household is different, and it tastes even better, a flavor that you could never taste in your previous life.
Han Jiaojiao loves eating sausages the most, and she couldn’t stand seeing the three of them chopping meat.
Han Jiaojiao picked up a stool and walked into the kitchen like a penguin.
Tang Shuang quickly took the stool from her hand and put it down against the wall.
"Mom, you put it so far away that I can't even touch the countertop. How can I help you?"
"Who asked you to help? Did I ask you to come and help? Look at your arms and legs. They don't look very strong. What use can you be?"
Han Jiaojiao pursed her lips and walked forward, rubbing the chair legs.
The four wooden legs clattered on the ground.
Tang Shuang didn't feel bad about the stool and tiles, but she was afraid that the legs of the stool were unstable.
If she sprains her ankle, her precious daughter will fall.
"If you want to come over here, then do it properly. Don't do this. It's too dangerous."
"I'm very careful!"
"You, I just can't believe it!"
Han Jiaojiao stuck out her tongue and acted coquettishly towards her, and Tang Shuang couldn't do anything about her.
Han Jiaojiao pulled Tang Shuang's apron and acted coquettishly.
"Mom, please let me help you. Let me chop two pounds of meat. Just two pounds!"
"Two pounds is not enough, right? Two pounds of meat is a lot, right?"
Niu Xi rolled up his sleeves and rolled out a chopping board that looked like a wooden stake from the corner.
Just like the one used to chop ribs at the meat stalls in supermarkets.
Yueji also took out a big knife, the kind used for chopping bones.
Because the thing is too heavy, I was afraid of damaging the table if I put it on the kitchen table.
Shen Junshan and Sun Quan went over to help, moved the things into the yard, then got two small stools, lit a charcoal stove, and put a pot of water on it to boil.
Han Jiaojiao changed to a low stool, ran outside happily, and occupied the chopping board first.
"Meat! Give me the meat! I've never used such a big chopping board before, let me enjoy it!"
"You kid! Only Junshan can stand you!"
Tang Shuang had no choice but to agree to let her chop two pieces of meat.
The last time she chopped meat was in the orphanage. During the Chinese New Year, everyone was making dumplings, and the director got a lot of meat. Han Jiaojiao still remembers the first dumplings she ate. They were stuffed with cabbage and meat, and a little bit of sauerkraut was added for seasoning. They were delicious.
Thinking about it now, her mouth is still watering.
She was not the one who chopped the stuffing at that time because she was still young and no one dared to let her touch the knife.
Han Jiaojiao was quite surprised when she picked up the knife.
“It’s so heavy!”
"This is a pure iron machete, of course it's heavy! If not, let Junshan do it. He's a man and has more strength."
Shen Junshan also moved a stool and sat over.
He walked over with a cup of hot water in his hand.
Shen Junshan smiled and said, "Mom, just let her play for a while. She will get tired soon anyway. It won't take long."
"Tsk, you know that!"
Han Jiaojiao picked up the knife with one hand, and after only chopping two or three times, she felt her arm sore.
But my mom and husband are watching us, so I have to be tough!
Han Jiaojiao chopped a few more times until the meat was cut into several pieces, and then she felt she had no strength left.
Shen Junshan also noticed it and took the kitchen knife.
"This is really good meat. It takes some effort to cut such thick meat."
Tang Shuang also knew that Shen Junshan was trying to find a way out for his daughter.
She also agreed with what Shen Junshan said.
"But because of the relationship, they let others leave the best part for us. Look at the pattern. It's great!"
"Mom made a good purchase. This pig must be a big one."
The two of them were chatting about the growth and parts of pigs, and Han Jiaojiao couldn't get a word in.
She only knew that the sausages would be delicious this time, and that was enough!
Han Jiaojiao leaned on Shen Junshan's shoulder. Seeing how skillfully he chopped the meat, she felt a little emotional.
Han Jiaojiao: "Junshan, sometimes I feel that your structure is different from that of normal people."
"Nonsense, how could I be different!"
"You seem to be insensitive to tiredness, but the more you are like this, the more I worry about your health. After all, you are the pillar of the family. I still hope you are healthy."
A warm feeling surged in Shen Junshan's heart.
His wife finally knows how to care for others!
Han Jiaojiao covered her hot water cup and said, "I still rely on you to make money to support the family. You can't die before me."
Shen Junshan's heart skipped a beat.
I was just touched for a moment, but immediately the truth was exposed!
Shen Junshan chopped the meat and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will be lazy if I can in the future, and I will never overdraw my body."
"That's right. We will have three babies in the future. You must take good care of yourself."
A few people were chatting and laughing. Sun Quan and Sun Wen also came out of the house and ran outside to chat with them while basking in the sun.
When Shen Junshan was tired of chopping, Sun Quan took over the knife and helped.
A group of people spent an entire afternoon chopping 15 pounds of front rib meat.
Niu Xi washed the big basin and took it outside, and everyone poured the meat into it.
Tang Shuang first added salt, then a little soy sauce, pepper powder and star anise powder. After mixing everything well, he divided it out in half.
Because some people in my family can't eat spicy food, I can only make original flavor.
Han Jiaojiao and Tang Shuang like spicy food.
Tang Shuang specially prepared a lot of pepper powder and chili powder, sprinkled them evenly on it, and then rubbed it vigorously with both hands.
Han Jiaojiao found it interesting, so she washed her hands and rubbed it.
"Wow, it feels so special!"
"Have you never made minced meat?" Sun Wen was curious.
Han Jiaojiao said: "It's not that I haven't done it before, but I've never done this much. There's really a lot, and it's really fun to rub it! Xiaowen, do you want to try it?"
Sun Yat-sen was also very curious.
Seeing that Tang Shuang had no objection, he immediately went to wash his hands and joined the meat-kneading team.
Everyone laughed and joked for the whole afternoon and finally prepared the sausage meat.
Tang Shuang smiled and said, "Send it to the canteen tomorrow and have someone stuff the meat. After it's been dried for a while, I'll smoke you with pine wood. It will taste even better!"
“It looks delicious!”
Han Jiaojiao kept swallowing her saliva until there was no taste in her mouth.
Shen Junshan thought of the time when he celebrated the New Year in the countryside and looked forward to drying the meat every year.
He thought of his third uncle's family, and his expression darkened a little.
Han Jiaojiao was very sensitive to his changes.
She stroked the fat on her fingers and said, "New Year's Day is coming in two days. Why don't you give Third Uncle a call before New Year's Day? My sister will also need a checkup after the New Year. How about bringing her to the city?"
