A Farm Girl Traveling Through Time: Raising a Stunning Husband
Chapter 44 Dinner! First time trying fried chicken
Considering that he had been quite active during the day, Shen Wu prepared some rice soup and fried chicken for dinner.
First make the rice soup and let it simmer slowly, then wrap the chicken.
The chicken from lunch had definitely absorbed the flavor by now, so Shen Wu took a large plate from home, filled it with flour and coated it with a layer of flour.
Because the chicken is sealed and marinated, not much moisture has evaporated, so it can be well coated with flour even without eggs.
Coat half a chicken with flour and set it aside. It would be too simple without any other dishes.
Shen Wu just happened to hear Gu Zhou bringing two people back. When she went out of the kitchen, she saw that the vegetables in the yard had already grown.
I didn't know what this vegetable was at first, but today I see it looks like cabbage. It's just a little different from what she ate back then, but the leaves are very similar.
Shen Wu pointed at the vegetable and said, "Gu Zhou, what kind of vegetable are you growing in your family?"
Gu Zhou carried his sleeping younger brother over, looked at the outline of the dish under the dim light and replied, "It's curly leaves. What? Do you want to cook it?"
Shen Wu nodded: "I forgot to pick the vegetables. After I finished everything else, I suddenly remembered that there were some in the yard. Although they looked familiar, I didn't recognize them and didn't dare to pluck them. And now you just happened to come back."
Gu Zhou: "It's edible. My mother likes to use it to cook dishes. It tastes a bit sweet."
Shen Wu was very excited. The taste described was really a bit like the cabbage she had over there, although they didn't look quite like it.
Seeing the baby in his arms motionless, Shen Wu asked curiously, "Is he asleep?"
Gu Zhou nodded: "I had dinner at my aunt's place and I felt sleepy after a short while. I fell asleep on the way back."
Shen Wu chuckled and leaned over to look at the little brother Gu in the small clothes in Gu Zhou's arms: "He's so cute when he's asleep!"
Gu Zhou didn't respond: "I'll send him back to sleep first, and come out to help you later."
Gu Wei was standing at the back, not understanding why these two people were suddenly acting a little strange today. It seemed that her brother was listening to Jiang Yu more?
Gu Zhou went back to drop off his younger brother and asked Gu Wei to go back with him. Shen Wu picked some curly leaves and went back to wash them. She thought about it and decided to quickly make some vegetable dumplings and fry them in the pan later.
Moreover, the vegetable dumplings are made with half-boiled noodles and half-normal temperature noodles. There is no need to wait for the fermentation time, you can just fry them in the pan.
Speaking of which, he didn’t know if they would have diarrhea if they suddenly ate oily food, so Shen Wu was a little hesitant and didn’t dare to continue.
After careful consideration, I decided to make vegetable cakes, so that they could try them first, and I would have a better idea when I open a stall.
Chop the curly leaves into small pieces, put them into a large bowl, season with some pepper powder, light soy sauce and a little salt and mix well. Shen Wu was afraid that it would not taste good enough, so he added two chopped wild onions with the skin dried.
Then it’s time to knead the dough.
Kneading the dough was still a little troublesome, and she suddenly remembered that her family used to eat pancakes from a stall in the morning. The method was also very simple and could be made without eggs.
After deciding what to cook, she stopped cooking the porridge, came back and put three bowls of flour into a medium-sized basin at home.
The bowls in ancient times were a bit small. Although farmers did not have the habit of eating in small bowls, those who worked hard ate and drank in big mouthfuls. Even the bowls she saw when she went to the town were a bit bigger than the ones in this house.
Mix flour with cold water to make a paste. It can be a little thicker. Then add the prepared vegetable filling into it.
The food can be eaten raw, and Shen Wu has already determined the taste. The chicken tonight has also been marinated, so it is likely to have a stronger taste, so there is no need to add any more noodles.
Originally, he wanted to fry the meat first, but there was no place to store hot oil in ancient times, so Shen Wu spread the batter first, made the pancakes, and then fry the meat.
She first heated the stove very high, and when the water in the pot had dried up and turned white, she put a little lard in it.
Because of the high temperature, the lard soon sizzled, and Shen Wu scooped a spoonful of it with a wooden spoon for soup, and carefully spread it evenly with the bottom of the wooden spoon. Because the pan was hot, the batter quickly solidified into a pancake, and the part in the pan was pushed up by the heat in less than ten seconds.
Shen Wu quickly flipped the dough over for fear that the bottom would get burnt. Fortunately, the bottom was not burnt that quickly, and only the hot oil contacted the batter to form a brownish color.
The batter was cooked very well and it didn't break when I turned it over. When I turned it to the other side, a very fragrant smell came out of the pot.
The aroma of lard mixed with the aroma of noodles and vegetables. Shen Wu's nose moved and he felt a little hungry when he smelled the smell.
A pancake used for the experiment was very small and could be taken out in just a dozen seconds after being flipped over. Shen Wu scooped the pancake out of the pot and put it into a bowl, then added a large spoonful of batter and spread it evenly.
"What a nice smell!" Gu Zhou smelled the fragrance as soon as he arrived at the kitchen door. The smell became stronger when he entered the kitchen and got close to the stove.
"It's just right that you're here. Wash your hands and take the chopsticks to taste it." Shen Wu knew who it was without turning around. There was only one little boy in the family, and his voice was still the hoarse kind that was about to change. It could only be Gu Zhou.
When she reminded him, Gu Zhou suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to wash his hands, and hurried out of the kitchen.
"There's water in the big basin at the door! I may have put too much in, so you can wash it first, or find another basin to share some so you can save it for later use."
Shen Wu was afraid that he would go find cold water to wash, so she specifically reminded him that there was warm water at the door.
It's not that she is being pretentious. In modern times, she washes her hands with cold water every day. One winter, her hands were cracked... Since then, she has to wash her hands with warm water regardless of spring, summer, autumn or winter. She will only use normal water temperature when the water is very hot.
Hot water is necessary in the winter, and although normal water temperature is enough in summer, she subconsciously still used warm water.
Gu Zhou didn't think twice and found a basin to distribute some to use later, and used the basin with less for himself.
Shen Wu had already made three pancakes when Gu Zhou returned to the stove, and he just happened to come back to make the fourth one.
"Try what's in the bowl. Be careful not to burn your mouth. Blow on it before eating." Shen Wu raised his chin and motioned for Gu Zhou to eat from the bowl.
A pair of chopsticks were placed on the bowl, as if they were waiting for Gu Zhou to come back and taste it.
Gu Zhou picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece and tasted it.
The edges are fried crispy and fragrant, while the middle is soft and slightly sweet. Although the taste is a bit bland, it is very delicious: "very delicious."
Shen Wu was naturally happy to hear the cooking done in this way. Seeing that he liked it very much, he asked him to take some more to eat.
It's been a busy day. Boys of this age should be hungry as they are very active.
Gu Zhou took another piece and ate it. Only then did he realize that the cake had been specially cut: "? You also cut it?"
The cut was very neat. He didn't understand how she did it. Did she take it back to the chopping board?
The one he ate was cut with a knife, of course, in the bowl.
After Gu Zhou finished eating the third slice, Shen Wu had already filled half a basin of batter.
It's not that she is fast, it's that the fire is powerful. The batter takes shape quickly, and it has burnt spots within a few seconds of taking shape. Just turn it over and wait a while and the pancake will be ready.
