Traveling through farming with the system, I cooked delicious food in ancient times

The door of the Silk and Bamboo Hall was not closed, and there were still several schoolchildren taking classes inside.

Yu Xiaochuan and Sima Yuan entered the Silk and Bamboo Pavilion one after another and sat in the outer hall waiting for the plum blossoms to be folded.

Sima Yuan was sitting in his seat and smelled the fishy smell from Yu Xiaochuan. He opened his fan to cover his nose, squinted his eyes and thought to himself: "Why does Zhe Mei know the fish seller? I have never seen him before."

When Zhemei left school, she saw the two of them waiting outside the hall and did not speak to Sima Yuan.

In front of Sima Yuan, she returned the coat to Yu Xiaochuan and invited him to the tea room.

Sima Yuan did not dare to look directly at Zhe Mei and hesitated: "Zhe Mei, I have something to tell you."

Zhemei pushed him out of the door: "Sima Yuan, our fate has ended. Don't come to my Silk and Bamboo House again."

Sima Yuan was locked at the door. He lay beside the door and wanted to eavesdrop. The people passing by laughed and said, "Isn't this Mr. Sima? Why is he locked at the door?"

Inside the house, Zhemei accepted the fruit cake sent by Yu Xiaochuan: "Master Yu, I should have come to thank you, but I have troubled you today."

"No, no, I'm on the way too. I deliver fish to Shopkeeper Shu Xi's restaurant every day. It was she who told me that your piano studio is here."

A quarter of an hour later, Sima Yuan was no longer at the door, but some guests came one after another to watch the piano: "Is Master Zhemei here? We are here to watch the piano!"

Yu Xiaochuan was a little reluctant to leave, but had to leave: "Miss Zhemei, I won't disturb your business. I'll see you again later."

Zhe Mei smiled and bid farewell to Yu Xiaochuan: "Brother Yu, I'll see you at the food shop next time. These fruits were brought by Miss Mao Xi, right?"

Yu Xiaochuan rubbed the back of his head and said awkwardly: "Hey, she said you like to eat egg yolk cakes. Actually, I don't know what to give to a woman."

"Ah sneeze..." Mao Xi sneezed inexplicably, "Who is talking about me?"

Inside Liuxiang Snacks, Mao Xi was cleaning the empty casserole.

Pig ears were sold cheaply in the market today. She couldn't help but bought five of them at once, costing 30 Wen.

After the mustard rice was sold out, she planned to use the casserole to braise it with the same spices as braised pig intestines.

After washing the casserole, Mao Xi and Dajiang handled the pig ears together.

First cut the pig ear from the root and cut off the cartilage at the tail end.

The hairy parts of the pig's ears should be burned over a small fire on the stove.

Seeing Mao Xi burning pig's ears, Ajiao felt curious and fun and ran over: "Sister, sister, I want to play with roasting pig's ears too!"

Mao Xi brought the pig ears to Ajiao: "Be careful, don't get burned."

Ajiao was not tall enough, so he had to stand on tiptoes to burn the pig's ears.

This scene looked so funny that Dajiang couldn't help but laugh.

Pig ears have a strong fishy smell. Put the washed pig ears into water, add onion, ginger, pepper, and rice wine, and boil over high heat to remove the fishy smell.

After cooking, take it out and wash it, and then start to fry the pig ears until they turn into sugar.

Heat oil in a pot and add sugar. When the sugar turns maroon, add hot water to the pot and mix. Pour it out and set aside.

Continue to stir-fry the spices, add oil to the pot, add onion and ginger slices, dried chili peppers, peppercorns, cinnamon, bay leaves, star anise, and seeded grass peel. After frying until fragrant, pour in sugar-colored water and mix.

Pour the fried spiced sugar-colored water into the casserole, add the pig ears, and cover with water. Finally, you need to add a small amount of salt, soy sauce, and rice wine for seasoning.

After the brine boils, turn to low heat and simmer for two quarters of an hour before taking it out of the pot.

Don't cook pig ears for too long, otherwise they won't be crispy when eaten.

After cooking, it needs to be soaked in brine for two quarters of an hour.

During this period, Ajiao curiously opened the casserole lid from time to time and peeked: "Wow~ the pig ears have turned into red ears!"

After soaking, Mao Xi took the pig ears out and let them cool, then cut a small plate for the clerks to try.

After the pig ears are stewed and soaked in brine, every bite is extremely crispy and has no fishy smell at all.

Moreover, the taste of pig ear cartilage is thinner and crisper than ordinary cartilage. It is wrapped in elastic pig skin and soft ear meat, making it suitable for fat and thin, not greasy or greasy.

This is perfect for drinking with peanuts!

Mao Xi asked Zhang Xiucai to write a set meal for appetizers: "Zhang Xiucai, braised pig ears are sold for 10 cents per plate, and we will make a set meal for appetizers [peanuts + braised pig ears] for 15 cents each."

When customers see an appetizer, they will probably order a bottle of wine to go with it.

The waiter Ah Xing scanned the circle of diners and saw two people ordering rice wine and wine respectively.

"Sir, we have a new dish in our shop: do you want to try the set meal with wine? This braised pig ear is delicious."

The rice wine-drinking diner has already ordered peanuts and braised pig intestines: "I just want one braised pig ear to try."

This diner has a round belly and knows how to pair peanuts and pig intestines with his wine. He seems to be a gourmet.

He chewed the braised pig ears carefully and said, "Well, this tastes good. The pig ears have meat and cartilage, and are crispy and refreshing. I have also eaten braised pig ears in several places, but they are not as fragrant as yours!"

After being affirmed by the diners, everyone became more energetic, and even the cooking spatulas swung faster.

The shops have been selling more greasy food recently, and it’s not summer yet, so the shops haven’t started selling iced sour plum soup yet.

Mao Xi boiled water, soaked some lemon plum and tangerine peel water to relieve greasiness, and asked the waiter to pour it for each diner.

Pig ears are good for brine, but they cannot be soaked in brine all the time.

The remaining brine cannot be wasted, so we put some tofu, eggs, chicken feet, and pork offal into it and cook it, and sell it with hot and sour noodles.

Especially the braised chicken feet, Ajiao likes to eat them a lot.

Normally lemon chicken feet are too spicy, so Chen doesn’t let Ajiao eat too much.

But the braised chicken feet are not spicy. Two braised chicken feet can make Ah Jiao, who doesn't like to eat, finish two bowls of white porridge in one sitting.

Su Xuejun didn't know if he smelled the aroma of wine, so he came to the shop with Mu Zhiyuan. While drinking, he recited a poem about the braised pig ears.

On the contrary, Mu Zhiyuan kept drinking with Su Xuexue.

Although these two people have good drinkers, the braised meat at Maixi's house tastes amazing, and today they also have braised pig ears.

After finishing the pig ears, I ordered other braised dishes one after another, leaving more than ten empty plates...

Mao Xi shook the two people who were lying drunk on the table: "Xuetuo, Brother Mu, wake up!"

Both of them fell asleep with their faces flushed.

Ajiao pointed at Su Xuexue's ears: "Sister, look, their ears have turned into red pig ears, hahaha..."

The little girl talks freely, and the next step is to rush forward and pinch her ears.

Mao Xi rushed forward and picked up Ajiao.

"Do you still want to eat braised chicken feet?" After saying that, he stuffed a chicken foot into Ajiao's mouth.

Dajiang ran to Prince Jia's Mansion and informed Butler Wang to take Mu Zhiyuan back.

Lu Da carried Su Xuexue back to Songjian Academy.

Fortunately, Liuxiang Snacks has the strength of these two people, so Mao Xi decided to add a chicken drumstick to each of them for lunch tomorrow.

Back at the palace, Mu Zhiyuan was half asleep, thinking he was still in Mao Xi's restaurant.

When Butler Wang saw that he stopped talking in his sleep, he went back to his room and continued drinking, paired with the braised pig ears that Da Jiang brought him.

At this time, Mu Zhiyuan suddenly woke up from alcohol. He took a sausage and climbed over the wall out of Prince Jia's Mansion.
