Not only did the aunties who helped with cooking light up their eyes when they saw the meat, even the men who helped with the manual labor felt stronger when they saw so much meat.
Meat is so hard to come by now. Except when the production team slaughters the New Year pig and distributes the meat, who has ever seen so much meat?
Peng Kaiyuan felt a little distressed when he saw the meat, and called Shen Chuning aside, "Ning girl, did you buy those expensive meats? Are they all for the banquet today?"
Nowadays, let alone banquets in the countryside, even in the city, if each person can get two pieces of meat, it is considered a very respectable banquet.
Chen Chuning smiled and said, "We're going to cook everything today, but not all for the banquet. Aren't Brother Yubai and my third brother in this mountain with the troops?
I heard from Brother Yu Bai that their troops have been eating march rations during this period. Although the march rations are enough to fill the stomach, they do not contain any oil or fat.
I thought of making a little more and sending it to them since we are having a banquet today. ”
Peng Kaiyuan nodded repeatedly when he heard Shen Chuning's words, "Of course, of course."
He thought that Shen Chu Ning prepared all the meat for the banquet, which was a bit too extravagant.
But it also needs to be sent to the troops, so the arrangement is very appropriate.
After chopping up two pig's trotters, I stewed a big pot of radish and pig's trotter soup.
There is a thick layer of oil floating on the pig's trotter soup, and before being served, it is sprinkled with a layer of chopped green onions. The fragrant aroma instantly makes people's appetite increase.
Five pounds of pork belly is cooked, sliced, and stir-fried with garlic sprouts and salted vegetables. The overbearing aroma makes people drool.
The lean meat of the buttocks was stir-fried with lettuce and meat, and cabbage and meat. After the fat meat was stir-fried to release oil, it was stir-fried with choy sum.
In addition to these meat dishes, three vegetarian dishes were also fried.
Although there are not many types of vegetarian dishes, the portions are large, a lot of oil is used, and they taste delicious.
Shen Chuning divided all the dishes into two portions, serving one portion to the commune staff and village neighbors who came to drink, and waiting for Zhou Yubai to pick up the other portion.
However, everyone at the table had already started eating, but Zhou Yubai had not yet appeared.
Shen Chuning couldn't help but feel a little worried, and subconsciously looked towards the entrance of the village.
