Chapter 242 BBQ 3
Barbecue requires skills. It is not just about throwing everything on the fire. It is not about just frying everything in oil and then grilling it.
For vegetables, they are first put on the oven and roasted until the moisture on both sides is slightly dry, then lightly oiled and roasted, and finally brushed with sauce.
If you add oil at the beginning, the moisture in the vegetables will be locked in the vegetables, making them watery and unpalatable.
Meat, such as pork belly, lamb kebabs, and those that are half lean and half fat, do not need to be rinsed with oil.
Grill one side of the meat until oil drips out, then turn it over and grill the other side. When both sides are browned and oily, sprinkle the sauce on them and grill both sides of the meat evenly.
The skewers of meat grilled in this way are delicious and crispy, with the fat mixed with the aroma of meat.
Thicker meats like chicken wings, chicken legs, and pork chops need to be marinated in advance.
Before roasting, you can cut the thick parts of chicken wings and drumsticks with a knife to allow the marinade and seasoning to absorb into the chicken. This will make the chicken wings dry, crispy and fragrant when roasted.
If you like the feeling of eating full and juicy food, you can cut it open while grilling.
You don't need to grease the chicken legs and wings right away. Grill them on both sides until they shrink and turn yellow, then grease them.
Turn it over and grill both sides. If you like honey chicken wings and honey chicken legs, you can brush them with honey at this time. Since they have already been marinated, there is no need to brush them with soy sauce or other seasonings.
Because they only killed three chickens, Song Sanniang only roasted one chicken leg and one chicken wing. Because they were roasted at the same time, they were cooked at the same time.
When she was baking, the aroma filled the air. Song Xiaodi was almost drooling as he waited by her side, hoping to have a bite when she was done.
The other things that Song Sanniang roasted, the duck gizzards, chicken feet, and pork belly are almost ready to eat. She roasted more pork belly, which can be wrapped in lettuce and eaten later. Just thinking about it makes me feel satisfied.
Seeing the eager look in Song Xiaodi's eyes, she couldn't help but pinch his chubby face, "Aren't you afraid that your throat will hurt after eating?"
Song Xiaodi shook his head desperately, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, just eat first."
Song Ersao heard and said to Song Sanniang, "Don't let him eat too much, five mouthfuls at most."
Song Sanniang agreed to what she said, but Song Xiaodi had a depressed look on his face. Song Sanniang picked up all the things she had baked and put them on the plate.
She called Master Hu and the others to come over and taste her cooking. She picked up a chicken leg, blew on it, and then took a big bite. The chicken skin was crispy and sweet, and the chicken meat was tender and smooth.
She took a bite and then handed the chicken leg to Song Xiaodi who was looking at her eagerly.
Song Xiaodi doesn't despise it at all. Every child grows up eating the saliva of his older brothers and sisters.
He took a big bite of the roasted chicken leg, and before he even finished eating, he mumbled, "It's so delicious, so delicious."
Mr. Hu and the others each picked out the dishes they liked, while Song Sanniang cut the eggplant in half.
Once you cut it open, the heat inside the eggplant will come out. The eggplant inside has been roasted until it is soft.
Song Sanniang dipped the eggplant in garlic sauce, then used chopsticks to separate the eggplant flesh from the eggplant skin and mixed it with the garlic sauce.
The feeling of the eggplant flesh and eggplant skin separating was very interesting. Song Sanniang couldn't wait to taste the roasted eggplant. It was soft, tender and smooth.
Everyone started eating, and the eggplant was quickly divided up by everyone. Si Niang was still not satisfied after finishing her meal, so she took one to roast.
The rest of the people continued to eat the leftovers, not even paying attention to what they had baked themselves. Fortunately, other people next to the oven would help turn the food over to prevent it from getting burnt.
The most lively place was the barbecue pits of the children in the village. They rarely saw such barbecues, so they all tried their best.
After all, everyone secretly took things from home and baked them for themselves, just like playing house.
Now that they were properly grilled, they all shouted and cheered, and everyone's face was filled with smiles.
While waiting, some children held a persimmon in their mouths, some drank honey water from their bamboo cups, and some came close to their parents to get a bite of the food their parents roasted.
After the barbecue at noon was over, it was almost afternoon, so everyone packed up and put the remaining ingredients in the kitchen.
The surrounding areas of the Bishui Lake are filled with processed fish drying in the sun, and people are watching nearby to prevent any small animals from coming and stealing the fish.
After Song Sanniang and the others had eaten and drunk their fill, they walked around nearby to digest the food. It was not until Song Xiaodi felt sleepy that they went home to take a rest.
Song Sanniang's life was very leisurely, but the old lady in the He Mansion became angry.
"What do you think that kid from Pingdu wants to do? He doesn't want to take the imperial examinations, and he doesn't want to get married. Does he want to piss me off to death?"
Old Madam He complained angrily to Nanny Yu beside her. She had been feeling suffocated ever since she found out her son had moved to the store.
Nanny Yu looked at the old lady's face and hesitated whether she should tell her what she knew.
Madam He noticed that her expression was different, so she asked, "What do you know? Tell me."
Yu Ma said, "You know that the Third Master is partnering with a Miss Song to open a shop. I think the Third Master must have fallen in love with Miss Song."
Madam He frowned and said, "How is that possible? Isn't she a peasant girl? She must be very vulgar. My son would definitely not have such a vision."
Yu Mama then agreed, "Madam, you are right. I guess they only have contact for the sake of cooperation."
Madam He thought about it and decided to ask Nanny Yu to find someone to investigate and find out what was going on between her son and Miss Song.
If he really likes her, it's fine. He can just allow her to be a concubine and bring her into the family after his son gets married.
"Madam, isn't there a rule in our family that we can't take concubines? The Second Master took one in because the Second Madam couldn't give birth to a son."
"I am already this old. For the sake of my son's marriage, I want him to marry a little girl. Who dares to have an objection? If there is, let him come to me and tell me." Madam He smiled coldly.
Nanny Yu quickly stepped forward to give her a back massage, "The old lady is right, it was I who spoke nonsense."
Song Sanniang had no idea that she had been arranged to be Master He San's concubine. She planned to go hiking with Master Hu and the others tomorrow to see what was on the top of the mountain. She had never been there before.
When she told Master Hu and the others about it, everyone agreed. So Song Sanniang asked Aunt Gan to prepare some easy-to-carry food for them the next day so they could eat when they were hungry while climbing the mountain.
After receiving the order, Aunt Gan started to think about what to make for Song Sanniang and the others to take to the mountain climbing the next day. She told Song Sanniang about pancakes, but Song Sanniang thought that she had just eaten barbecue, so she rejected the idea of making pancakes.
Finally, Song Sanniang thought of making sushi, but she didn't have many ingredients, so she asked Aunt Gan to make glutinous rice balls, which were delicious and filling.
