Chapter 111 Refining Lard
Ares has teammates, and he has to work night shifts every day (……)
So, he had never stayed overnight before.
Now that it was suddenly brought up, Sheng Jiu was a little surprised, but he didn't refuse.
Next to Yuanke's house was previously a warehouse.
After his grandfather passed away, Sheng Jiu cleaned out his things and the room became empty.
I had tidied it up briefly before, but not everything was complete.
You can add a folding bed to sleep in, but it's a bit simple.
Sheng Jiu asked Ares, and after knowing that he didn't mind, he nodded in agreement.
Sheng Jiu didn't need to worry about it, Ares cleaned up the room quickly by himself.
When the distant guests saw this, they didn’t want to fall behind.
However, his room had been cleaned by Sheng Jiu before, and he had lived there before, so there was nothing to clean up now.
After Sheng Jiu finished packing, he returned to his room.
Although the rooms on the second floor were partitioned later as part of decoration, they all have doors.
So, after Sheng Jiu went in, he locked the door and confirmed with the system again: "Can it be guaranteed to be safe?"
[Of course, if necessary, make the diners disappear physically.]
Sheng Jiu:.
That's not necessary.
With the system's guarantee, Sheng Jiu lay down with peace of mind.
It was a rare occasion that Ares didn't have to work overtime, and he was still a little uncomfortable.
The warm environment and the simple but still comfortable folding bed are much more comfortable than sleeping in the wild.
But, I tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.
If Ares wasn't afraid that the distant guest had some bad intentions, he thought, wouldn't it be nice for him to go out and work the night shift and catch some cold-water shrimps?
Tomorrow’s ingredients are easily prepared.
Unfortunately, no.
He has to be on guard against distant visitors!
The distant guest next door didn't care what Ares thought.
Finally I can watch the video!
Although you can’t choose what you like to watch, you still have to learn.
But it doesn’t matter. In order to be able to watch videos in the future, he has to study hard.
There is no time limit for cultivating immortals. During the long period of time, it is not all about contemplation and cultivation. There is always some time when you do nothing.
I'm free anyway, so it's nice to watch some videos and see what's going on.
With jujube tea and osmanthus honey, Sheng Jiu slept until dawn.
It was not yet six when I woke up.
Although the sleep time at night is not particularly sufficient, because I sleep well, I feel very energetic when I wake up in the morning. I no longer feel drowsy and irritable when I don’t sleep well.
I got up, washed up, and then prepared to go downstairs to buy groceries.
The noodles for pot stickers were not used up last night, and Sheng Jiu was afraid that it was not enough, so he distributed some more.
This morning, she prepared to make lard. In addition to the regular lard, she also added some pork belly.
The fat residue from the pork belly will be larger. You can chop it into small pieces and steam it with vegetables or sauerkraut to make buns!
Of course, the prerequisite is that you can buy good quality vegetables or sauerkraut in the market in the morning.
I have to make garlic pork today, so I have to go to the market to buy some good quality garlic.
After making some plans in his mind, Sheng Jiu prepared to go downstairs.
Ares got up early and didn't want to disturb Sheng Jiu's rest, so he didn't go to wash up.
Hearing the noise, he hurried out: "Young boss, wait a moment, I'll accompany you."
Sheng Jiu responded and tied her hair up.
Ares washed up quickly and then accompanied Sheng Jiu.
There was no movement in the guest's room, his door was closed, and Sheng Jiu was not sure what was going on.
Ares was worried about the guest being alone at home, so when he went downstairs, he raised his hand and pointed over there: "...Is it okay?"
Although Ares did not work the night shift last night, Bol had already been sent out as bait.
So, after they left, only the distant guests were left upstairs.
Sheng Jiu shook his head: "It doesn't matter, let's go and come back quickly."
Seeing that Sheng Jiu didn't care, Ares was worried, but he didn't try to persuade him any further.
The two of them quickly went to the market.
The market in the morning is bustling with people and full of the atmosphere of life.
The stalls selling various vegetables and meats were crowded with people.
Sheng Jiu has a system reminder, so there is no need to squeeze into some stalls.
Her goal is clear: good quality garlic, sauerkraut, or green vegetables.
After walking through half of the market, I only came across garlic of good quality +, and didn't see any garlic of excellent quality.
Sheng Jiu has been thinking about it. If there is really no one, just buy one with good quality.
As long as the pork is fragrant, it’s okay even if the dipping sauce is a little bit inferior.
As he was thinking, Ares gently tugged at Sheng Jiu's sleeve: "That garlic smells good."
Ares had no system to guide him, but he had a nose to smell.
I'm not sure which kind of garlic is better, but the one that smells spicy should be fine, right?
Sheng Jiu looked in the direction he pointed and saw the system guidance at first glance: excellent quality.
Finally met you!
Sheng Jiu breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression did not show much fluctuation.
I asked about the price and was told it was 15 yuan per pound, which is definitely more expensive than the market price, but still within an acceptable range.
The price of garlic in this market fluctuates between 10 and 12 yuan depending on the quality.
Sheng Jiu walked around half of the market and finally found something suitable. After asking around, he picked some to buy.
The price of garlic fluctuates every day, so there is no need to stock up too much at one time.
After buying the garlic, Sheng Jiu and Ares walked around twice more, bought some good cucumbers and sauerkraut, and then went back directly.
It was still early, and the system delivery truck brought the pork that Sheng Jiu needed for today.
The yam and pork ribs soup continued, but the pig's trotters were gone, and the remaining spines from yesterday had been eaten by Ares and Yuanke, so there were none left today.
Sheng Jiu separated the meat, washed it, and prepared to weigh it and put it into the pot.
Because everything is cooked in the same pot, it is easier to cut the pieces and weigh them before putting them in the pot. After they are cooked, it is also easier to slice them.
Otherwise, you will need to weigh it again when the time comes, but you may not have enough time when you are busy.
Therefore, if you do the preparation work well, you will save a lot of processes later.
Prepare the pork belly and pork belly, blanch them in water first to remove the blood foam and impurities, then put them into the rice cooker and steam them slowly.
Because you are eating the mellow flavor of the ingredient itself, you don’t need to add anything else except the seasoning to remove the fishy smell.
After putting everything in the two rice cookers, Sheng Jiu started to refine lard.
Cut the suet into small pieces so that it will be more efficient.
The same goes for pork belly. Blanch it in water first to remove the fishy smell and impurities, and the lard refined from it will be more tender, white and smooth.
As the temperature rises, the white fat pieces gradually become crispy and fragrant. At the same time, the water in the pot is slowly evaporated and the fat is fried out.
At this time, you can try to slowly pour out the fried lard to prevent it from being overcooked and affecting the color.
The pigs in the world of immortal cultivation, after being contaminated by spiritual energy, have an especially strong and fragrant smell.
When lard is refined, it already has a fragrant taste.
After being blessed by spiritual energy, the taste becomes more intense.
Ares was cutting pork belly. After smelling the scent, he couldn't help but look back frequently.
Li Chengxiang from next door wore a mask all morning for fear of being overwhelmed by the fragrance from next door.
However, today's rich aroma starts from the burnt aroma of refined lard.
That fragrance...
The mask can't cover it at all!
