"It smells so good. This lard is so fragrant. It makes you hungry when you smell it." Wang Xiaojun swallowed and took a deep breath.
Xu Qingfeng also found it very fragrant.
The biggest difference between lard and vegetable oil is that lard is made from lard or fat. It is the fat from pigs. Lard itself has a unique meat flavor.
And after being heated at high temperature, it is very rich when it is emitted.
It smells particularly delicious.
And it tastes smoother.
Xu Qingfeng saw a lot of Chinese cabbage at Junzi's house just now. After finishing frying the egg fried rice, he planned to fry a plate of cabbage with lard and eat it.
Green vegetables + lard is a perfect combination.
Same as tomatoes + eggs.
The green vegetables themselves are very light, without any oil or water.
So many people think green vegetables are not delicious.
But if you use lard to fry vegetables, this problem can be solved perfectly.
Lard can not only keep the freshness and nutrition of green vegetables, but also exude a rich meaty aroma, which is full of fragrance and rich in nutrients.
The lard is not poured, the spoon is in contact with the pot, and after feeling the heat of the pot, the lard automatically slides into the pot, which is a great relief.
After the lard was hot, Xu Qingfeng poured the eggs that he had just knocked into the bowl and stirred evenly into the pot.
The aroma of eggs is accompanied by the aroma of pork, and the two blend together to make you even more mouth-watering.
Wang Xiaojun's eyes widened.
Even Tian Chai didn't have any thoughts anymore and came to watch Xu Qingfeng's egg fried rice.
Add a piece of wood and it will burn for a long time without the need to keep an eye on it.
"How's it going? Do you trust your brother and my cooking skills now?" Xu Qingfeng saw the desire to eat written all over Jun Zi's face and said with a slight smile.
Wang Xiaojun nodded quickly.
Believe it, a million believe it.
After the eggs were fried, Xu Qingfeng poured the leftover rice directly into them.
Fried egg and fried rice, perfect for leftovers the next day.
The reason why fresh rice is not used is because fresh rice has more water and is too soft in texture. It is not easy to absorb the flavor of sauce and other ingredients during the fried rice process, and it is easy to form clumps and is difficult to spread. The scrambled eggs are not easy to spread. The fried rice doesn't taste very good.
The leftover rice from the next day, after being left for a period of time, the rice grains will fully absorb water vapor and become swollen and plump. At this time, the rice will be soft on the inside, hard and loose on the outside, and have less moisture.
This kind of rice absorbs the aroma of sauce and other ingredients more easily.
Another reason is that the starch in leftover rice from the next day will ferment overnight to produce trace amounts of starch sugars and polysaccharides. When heated, these polysaccharides will produce a sweet fragrance, making the rice extra delicious. tasty.
The egg fried rice fried in this way has plump and distinct grains.
It naturally tastes better.
The firepower of the earthen stove is very strong, so Xu Qingfeng scrambles eggs and rice very quickly.
Pour the rice into the pot, stir-fry a few times, use a spatula to break up the clumps of rice, and then add soy sauce, salt, and MSG to it.
When the egg fried rice is almost cooked, add a handful of chopped green onions to add color and flavor.
After a while, their lunch, egg fried rice, was ready.
"I just added a handful of firewood, and it hasn't been burned yet? Is it ready to be fried?" Wang Xiaojun was dumbfounded.
"What else? Wait, don't turn off the heat. I'll fry some more cabbage. I used a lot of lard. Aunt Wang won't talk about me when she comes back, right?" Xu Qingfeng asked Wang Xiaojun with a smile.
"No, Brother Feng, you can rest assured. My mother knows what you use and will only say, it's good." Wang Xiaojun said quickly.
Xu Qingfeng couldn't laugh or cry.
After a while, a plate of cabbage was also fried.
Xu Qingfeng then asked Zhu Zhu to put out the stove fire.
"Oh my god, Brother Feng, I can't wait to taste it. This is too fragrant. I think it must taste good..." Wang Xiaojun couldn't help but take a bite of the egg fried rice, and he was completely satisfied.
"Eat slowly. The egg fried rice just came out of the pot is still very hot." Xu Qingfeng sat down with the cabbage and tasted his own egg fried rice.
Seeing Wang Xiaojun swallowing big mouthfuls, his food tasted particularly delicious.
"It's delicious, it's so delicious. Brother Feng, your skills can make you work as a chef in a state-owned hotel." Wang Xiaojun was full of praise.
The egg fried rice is steaming hot, and the rice grains are golden in color and plump. Just by looking at the presentation, you can give it a perfect score.
"How can you tell whether it tastes good or not if you eat it so fast?" Xu Qingfeng saw Wang Xiaojun's wind and clouds, and perfectly interpreted the word "rice cook".
The so-called swallowing the jujube in one piece is probably what he is like now.
"Brother Feng, it's just because it's delicious that I eat it so fast." Wang Xiaojun said with a smile, rather embarrassed.
Two bowls of egg fried rice and a large plate of cabbage were completely wiped out by the two of them.
After eating and drinking, Xu Qingfeng took Wang Xiaojun to put the cage on the ground in the afternoon.
Xu Qingfeng asked Wang Xiaojun to push the family's cart, put the ground cage and fishing rod on the cart, and the two of them walked towards the river.
Wang Xiaojun was pushing the cart and looked at Brother Feng holding a flower in his mouth. His temperament was just like that of a young man from an ancient aristocratic family.
He couldn't envy this kind of temperament.
He thought about why Brother Feng seemed to be a different person after he woke up after being injured.
So much has changed.
The slingshot is perfect, and you can make fishing rods, ground cages, and egg fried rice...
However, he soon stopped thinking about it.
As long as Brother Feng is still the same Brother Feng and is willing to help him make money, why should he care so much.
Xu Qingfeng took Wang Xiaojun to the Songhua River.
Wang Xiaojun took down the floor cage and was about to throw it into the water. Xu Qingfeng quickly stopped him: "Junzi, what are you doing?"
"Brother Feng, don't you want to put the cage on the ground?" Wang Xiaojun asked in a daze.
Xu Qingfeng couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Are you stupid? You don't put bait? You just want to catch fish? Whose fish is as stupid as yours... Do you think it's Jiang Taigong fishing?"
"Ah, you told me earlier, where are we going to find bait?" Wang Xiaojun patted his thigh and said anxiously.
"The bait is by the river. Here, I'll give you this cloth bag. You go dig some earthworms and put them in it." Xu Qingfeng said to Wang Xiaojun.
When digging for earthworms, Wang Xiaojun's eyes lit up. They were good to use as bait, and the earthworms in the soil beside the Songhua River were so big and fat that he could dig up a lot of them.
"Okay, I'm going to dig right now." Wang Xiaojun saw the small hoe on the cart. Brother Qianfeng had known about it for a long time and brought all the tools.
Just now he was wondering what he was going to bring a hoe for.
Wang Xiaojun went to dig for earthworms, and Xu Qingfeng was not idle either. He walked along the river and saw a lot of snails in the shallow water. He rolled up his trouser legs, took off his shoes, and went down to the river to touch a lot of snails.
Snails and earthworms are what they will use as bait in the ground cage in the afternoon.
