Rebirth 78, marry Qingmei as my wife

After Liu Hongjun finished speaking, he quickly picked out the ribs one by one and handed them to Sun Lili, "Let's use these ribs to stew winter melon!

I left some extra meat above, the stewed winter melon will be delicious! "

"Yeah!" Sun Lili agreed and took the ribs.

"We didn't bring back any pig meat, so we have to make do with tenderloin and ribs for this pig-killing dish!" Liu Hongjun said with a smile.

"How can this be a makeshift? This is quite a makeshift!" Wang Yuejin said with a smile.

After Liu Hongjun removes the hind legs of the pig, if he is selling pork, the pig will basically be killed by now. When it comes to the market, whoever wants that piece can just cut it off.

However, Liu Hongjun and the others are not selling pork, so they will naturally continue.

The pork belly must be evenly divided into strips of five centimeters in width so that the bacon can be marinated.

Smoked bacon is actually similar and needs to be cut into long strips of about five centimeters.

After dividing the pork belly, everyone began to work together.

Fang Weishan led a few educated youths to start making Jinhua ham, while Liu Hongjun led others to marinate pork belly.

Liu Hongjun went down to the cellar and brought up the jar for curing bacon at home. Everyone worked together to apply salt to the pork belly, rub it once, and put it layer by layer into the jar.

This is very simple. After Liu Hongjun explained it to everyone, he turned around to watch Fang Weishan making Jinhua ham.

Liu Hongjun watched it for 2 minutes and couldn't help laughing.

Isn't this the same process as when he cured bacon?

First, apply salt evenly to the pig's hind legs, and then rub it vigorously to let the salt penetrate into the meat and squeeze out the blood in the meat.

The only difference is that Jinhua ham requires several more salting steps. It needs to be salted twice, three times or even four times.

Then, the last step is also different. One is to store it in a jar, and the other is to hang it to dry.

It’s true that something cannot be explained thoroughly. Once it is explained thoroughly, there is nothing strange about it.

In fact, whether it is Jinhua ham, northeastern bacon, or southern bacon, they are essentially all designed to better preserve meat in the era before refrigerators.

However, with the development of society, everyone suddenly discovered that the meat preserved in this way tasted unique.

Therefore, whether it is bacon, Jinhua ham, or bacon, the curing process gradually becomes complicated.

This complexity is actually to make the taste more delicious.

Liu Hongjun is very busy at home, and the same is true at the brigade headquarters.

After the wild boar was brought back, Yang Guangfu announced on the spot that he would kill two pigs and give everyone a share, leaving only the hind legs.

At noon, Liu Hongjun and the others had eaten the two hind legs of the yellow-haired tuna, which was also taken out and shared among everyone.

Each family shared several pounds of meat.

The pork belly was so good that the fat mark was three fingers thick, which made the old women in the village so happy that they all carried the meat home with smiles on their faces to cook.

Liu Hongjun and others were busy until after nine o'clock in the evening before they finished processing all the pork.

Sun Lili and Zhu Manli also made dinner, stewing a large pot of pork ribs and stewed winter melon, but the winter melon was a little pitiful, and it was full of fragrant pork ribs.

For tenderloin, Sun Lili made three dishes: stir-fried tenderloin, salt and pepper tenderloin, and dry-fried tenderloin.

That’s four dishes together.

Then another big pot of rice was simmered.

Sun Lili knew Liu Hongjun's appetite, so she simmered a large pot of sorghum rice.

Eleven people made a full kang table, and one kang table couldn't be placed, so they simply put two kang tables together.

Although there was no mountain mining today, everyone was in high spirits.

After all, this wild boar was brought back by Zhou Weiguo and the others, and they followed Liu Hongjun into the mountains to hunt in disguise.

We also made bacon from two pigs and four Jinhua hams. Everyone was happy and enjoyed eating them.

"Lao Fang, today the captain said that a team for making Jinhua ham will be set up tomorrow, and you will be the team leader to lead everyone to make Jinhua ham together."

"Is Jinhua ham going to be made in the village?" Fang Weishan obviously didn't know the news.

"OK!

Captain Yang told me this on the way here!

I guess it felt like it was a pity to divide the meat like this, so I planned to make Jinhua ham and sell it to the supply and marketing cooperative.

After all, Jinhua ham is a rarity in our Gada! Liu Hongjun said.

"That's right, it doesn't matter if you are the team leader or not, as long as you are given work points!" Fang Weishan said nonchalantly.

“Your work points will definitely be indispensable!

Don’t you want bacon to send home?

I told the captain that I would keep a few more pigs so that when you make Jinhua ham tomorrow, you can make bacon as well.

You can do as much as you want!

I have these two pigs, that's enough! Liu Hongjun continued.

"We don't need much. It's only [-] cents per catty. With the money I have, I can buy fifty or sixty catties."

"It's okay. You can ask for more if you want. You can record it in the account first, and then you can give it to me after the team has divided the money!

Anyway, I'm not afraid of you running away! Liu Hongjun laughed.

"We really want to run, but the team won't issue a certificate, so where can we run?" Zhou Weiguo said with a wry smile.

"Hey! I don't know when I will be taller. I have to study hard tomorrow and try to get into college." Zhao Jianjun said.

"Jianjun is right. You all have a good education. Study hard this winter and take the college entrance examination next year. In the future, I will go out to chat with others and my face will be bright.

I drank with college students back then.

When you become big leaders in the future, I can come to your door and ask for your help! "Liu Hongjun made a point.

As for whether they will listen and go in, and whether they are willing to study hard to take the college entrance examination, it depends on them. In the last life, Zhao Jianjun was the only educated youth in this room who was admitted to college.

Later he became a big leader.

"Red Army, don't be a leader. If we return to the city in the future, as long as you have something to do, send us a letter. If we can handle it, we will definitely handle it for you. If we can't handle it, we will find a way to help you." Sun Lili was very happy. patted Liu Hongjun on the shoulder and said.

"Then let me thank you all in advance! You must study hard and make progress every day!

Otherwise, it would be embarrassing if I came to the door to ask for help in the future and found that your life was worse than mine! Liu Hongjun said half-jokingly.

"Don't tell me, even if the Red Army stays in the countryside, with his abilities, he may not be worse off than us if he stays in the countryside!" Zhou Weiguo said with a smile.

"I feel the same!

Red Army, if we really return to the city, if nothing else, you will find a way to send us some bacon every year.

Don’t worry, we don’t ask for it in vain, we will definitely give you the money! "Wang Yuejin then spoke.
