This process feels more time-consuming than stewing food.
Fortunately, after tempering his body with incense, he had plenty of strength.
While scraping the pig's head, Xiao Yu put a few eggs in the pot with clean water to cook. It was convenient to stew them briefly.
After cleaning the pig's head, rub it with coarse salt, beat it, put it into boiling water again, and then pick it up and rinse it.
The cleaned pig's head was thrown aside. Xiao Yu boiled two large pots of hot water and poured them into two iron buckets for later use. Then he began to fry the sugar color, add the spices, and cook it.
In order to prepare some complementary food for the babies later, he made one spicy and one spiced.
☆
After several rounds of processing, the pig's head was braised and it didn't take long. Xiao Yu quickly prepared the pig's trotters and threw them in. He would also prepare some braised chickens, one male and one female.
The black market said the pig lungs had been cleaned repeatedly, and they looked clean. However, just to be on the safe side, Xiao Yu cleaned them three times with flour, salt, and vinegar, then scalded them with boiling water before throwing them into the brine.
Zhou Yan came back very quickly.
Xiao Yu had just taken out the pork head that had been braised for half an hour and soaked it for a while. He was about to take out the chicken liver and eggs that were almost cooked when he came in carrying two sacks, collected the stones, and put them back.
He placed the sack in his hand in the mountain temple. Judging from the appearance, it should contain paper money or something.
☆
When Zhou Yu came in, he saw the braised pig's head and quickly washed his hands to help.
Xiao Yu took out the four small enamel pots he bought today and showed them to the four children.
The third child and the eldest daughter chose two army green enamel pots without patterns. The fourth child was vain and asked for a bright red one, and the youngest daughter asked for a white one.
In order to prevent confusion between the third child and the eldest daughter, Xiao Yu specially tied a red hairband on one of them.
The eldest daughter finally looked a bit like a girl and asked for a red hairband.
Then it’s time to eat.
A bowl of soaked rice noodles was divided into four portions, with two egg yolks and two chicken livers added. Because it was deliberately made thin, the four children only needed their father to help hold their cups, and they ate their dinner by themselves.
After dinner, the four little ones played for a while with Zhou Yan, and then each of them fell asleep hugging his own pillow.
Xiao Yu and Zhou Yan finally had time to eat their dinner.
In order to avoid wasting it, the two of them took out the mutton soup they hadn't finished in the morning. In fact, there wasn't much meat left in it, and Xiao Yu had been thinking about using it to cook noodles.
Since Zhou Yan wants to eat, then eat it.
A pot of soup alone was clearly not enough to feed two people. Xiao Yu quickly cut up some pig liver and pig intestines as side dishes.
You can't just have two meals a day and not let people eat well.
"Wait." Xiao Yu just sat down and immediately jumped up again, calling Zhou Yan to join him. He fished out three pig heads. Only two were going to be used for sacrifice. They could remove the bones from the remaining one and gnaw on them.
Seeing the eager look of Comrade Xiaoyu who had been busy all night, Zhou Yan was not afraid of the heat at all. He quickly took out the remaining pig skull, leaving a lot of lean meat on it.
When Xiao Yu saw the bones, he generously cut a plate of pig head meat for Mr. Zhou.
Zhou Yan was a little embarrassed, but the bright red pig's head in front of him made him like it. During the war, he heard veterans talk about the deliciousness of pig's head, but it was a pity that Huaguo Town didn't sell it.
Unexpectedly, after many twists and turns, I was satisfied by Comrade Xiaoyu.
