【Revision】
After chatting with Zhang Jun about some things for a while, the guy yawned and left to take a lunch break.
Wu Hao did not go to the lounge for his daily lunch break, but stretched and continued to work.
Because Wu Hao had to go home early today, he had to finish the work at hand quickly. In fact, for young people like them, whether or not to take a lunch break is not a big problem, it is just a habit.
After finishing the work at hand, I looked at the time and it was already three o'clock. Wu Hao summoned Su Ho to come in and leave the remaining matters to him, while he packed up and left the office.
Take the elevator directly to the garage, and the vehicle is already waiting at the door.
"Go home." After getting into the car, Wu Hao said to the driver.
"Okay." The driver responded, then started the car and drove out. As for him, he just closed his eyes and rested his mind. This was also a rare time to relax.
Passing by a flower shop, Wu Hao bought a lot of flowers as usual, including roses, lilies, sunflowers, lotus, etc. Anyway, he bought them because they looked good and smelled good.
After returning home, Wu Hao took a shower and put on loose and comfortable home clothes. In fact, it’s just a loose T-shirt with pants and slippers, whatever makes you feel comfortable at home. If it weren't for his image, I'm afraid he wouldn't even want to wear a T-shirt.
When I came to the kitchen, I opened the refrigerator, which was filled with fresh ingredients delivered today. Wu Hao took out the contents one by one and handed them over to the robot on the side for processing, while he began to get busy.
A few days ago, Lin Wei was not paying attention when she went out to participate in activities, which caused her to faint from heat stroke. She was immediately sent to the hospital by the staff. She was given two bottles of fluids and rested for two days before she recovered. It just happened that she was on her period these days, and she was weak, especially her appetite was not very good, so Wu Hao got off work early and prepared to cook something delicious for her.
Put the rice into the rice cooker and cook it. He added red beans, corn kernels, green beans, sweet potatoes, and raisins to the rice to increase the taste of the rice and also serve as an appetizer.
Then take out the optional fresh river shrimp and clean them. Then boil a pot of water, add onion and ginger in it, wait until the water boils, then put these river shrimps into the boiling water and blanch them. Skim off the scum, add cooking wine to remove the fishy smell, add salt to increase or decrease the base flavor, wait until the shrimp skin completely turns red, then take it out with a strainer and put it in ice water to cool down and soak. Soaking in ice water will make the shrimp meat firmer and more elastic, giving it a better taste.
Soak for twenty minutes until all the ice cubes have melted, then take out the shrimps to drain them and arrange them on a plate. Add the prepared sauce in the middle, and this bowl of boiled prawns is ready.
Because it is summer, Wu Hao specially chose a vinegar bowl for the food bowl, which will relieve fatigue and increase appetite.
Then I made a vegetable salad, chopped various vegetables, mixed them together, and added salad dressing. This is also more appetizing in summer, and Lin Wei usually likes to eat it.
After finishing the cold dishes, the next step is the hot dishes. The first thing to do is to make braised beef. For the beef, take high-quality sirloin, cut it into large pieces, blanch it, and then stir-fry the sugar color. Add the beef and stir-fry it. After the beef changes color, pour in the stock, and then pour in the star anise, cinnamon, etc. seasoning. And in order to make the beef taste better and appetizer, Wu Hao also put a little hawthorn in it.
The sour taste of hawthorn can not only increase the taste, but also play a role in strengthening the stomach and digesting food. Then he put the pot of beef into the casserole and simmered it slowly, and he started to work on other dishes.
Next is the sweet and sour pork ribs, which is also Lin Wei’s favorite dish. Because it is sweet and sour, this dish is also popular with most girls. This dish is actually similar to Coke Spare Ribs, except that the Sweet and Sour Spare Ribs may taste better.
This dish is not too technically difficult and ordinary people can make it according to the tutorial. It's just that it's difficult to make it well. The most difficult aspects are seasoning and deboning. Sweet and sour pork ribs are naturally sweet and sour, but how to balance the sweet and sour taste requires experience. The sourness should not overwhelm the sweetness, and the sweetness should not cover up the sourness. The deboning of sweet and sour pork ribs is the key to making this dish. There are many people who make sweet and sour pork ribs and everything else is good, but they cannot remove the bones. This is the key. The cooked sweet and sour pork ribs only need to be pulled gently, and the ribs inside can be pulled out from the meat, leaving no trace of meat on the bones.
As for the ribs that cannot be removed from the bones, you need to use your teeth to chew them, and they cannot be chewed cleanly. The trick to mastering this is to control the heat. The main thing is to simmer slowly to make the ribs flavorful and tender, so that they can be removed from the bones. Moreover, the meat is filled with sweet and sour juice, making it richer in flavor.
In order to regulate Lin Wei's intestines and stomach, Wu Hao also specially prepared two dishes, a nine-turn large intestine and a spicy and sour tripe slice. The spicy and sour belly dish actually comes from his stepmother's specialty, so he is quite skilled at making it. Lin Wei had eaten it when she went home before and liked it very much, so Wu Hao specially made this dish today. As for the Nine-turn Large Intestine, he has never made it. He learned it entirely from the tutorials. However, it is quite decent when it is made. As long as it is successful in terms of appearance, color and taste, there is no overturn.
Our traditional culture emphasizes that form complements form. Although this statement has no factual basis, it is a tradition. And there is indeed such a prescription in traditional Chinese medicine, using pork belly to regulate gastrointestinal function, but that kind is more complicated, and this kind is completely food, which can provide some psychological comfort. The main thing is that Lin Wei likes it and likes to eat, so his goal is achieved.
In addition to these dishes, he also cooked a soup, using crucian carp, radish and red dates soup, which is also relatively nutritious and is better for women anyway.
After doing this, Wu Hao slowly warmed the hot dishes. He began to clean up the house, took out all the stale flowers in the vase, and then inserted the newly bought flowers.
Finally, Wu Hao specially placed a rose on the dining table as a small surprise for Lin Wei.
After doing this, he took out a bottle of beer from the refrigerator, then walked to the living room and sat down. While browsing the web, drinking beer, and quietly waiting for Lin Wei to come back.
In the past, Lin Wei had been busy waiting for him to go home many times, but now it was his turn.
At around five o'clock, Lin Wei returned home with a tired look, and found that the lights in the house had been turned on, and Wu Hao, who was sitting on the sofa, had fallen asleep at some point.
Seeing this scene, Lin Wei showed a warm smile in her tired look, then put down her bag, put on her slippers, walked lightly to Wu Hao, opened the blanket and put it lightly on Wu Hao.
Wu Hao, who noticed the movement, opened his eyes slightly and saw Lin Wei in front of him, gently putting a blanket on him. He noticed that he woke up, and then said with a smile: "Wake up."
"I'm back. The food is ready. Let's quickly clean up and eat." Wu Hao rubbed his eyes and sat up and said.
