Chapter 153 Ambush
Killing a chicken is a technical job!
If an ordinary person has no experience, he would probably be really confused and overwhelmed by this chicken.
Chickens will play dead. Even if you cut their throats and let their blood drain, they may fly away as soon as you let go when you think they are dead!
So, the technique of killing chickens is quite advanced. Ning Yuan learned this from his chef father before he traveled through time.
There are often pheasants and rabbits in the mountains of their hometown. After catching them, they will process them on the spot, either roasting them or making them into beggar's chicken.
But the same thing, no matter what you do, you need to kill the chicken first!
Grab the two wings of the big rooster with your left hand, then bend the rooster's head over and grab them together.
Use your right hand to pluck the fine hairs on the chicken's neck and throat. On the one hand, it makes it easier to cut, and on the other hand, it prevents the chicken feathers from contaminating the chicken with blood.
Ning Yuan took a sharp kitchen knife, cut all the blood vessels and trachea of the chicken, then turned it over and let the chicken blood drip into the bowl.
After a whole bowl of dripping liquid, the chicken was completely dead.
The next step is to pluck the chicken.
While cleaning up just now, Ning Yuan boiled a large pot of water, and now the water has boiled.
Ning Yuan took a large enamel basin and soaked the whole chicken in boiling water.
Two or three minutes is enough. Since the whole body is immersed in boiling water, the hair all over the body is very easy to pull out and all the hair can be pulled out easily.
After plucking the feathers, there will still be a layer of chicken skin on the chicken's body that is similar to an oil film, and this oil film also needs to be peeled off.
After that, you can already see the tender and plump chicken.
Even the meat of domestic chickens in this era is better than that of pheasants in the era before Ning Yuan traveled through time. As for those chickens that are ripened in farms, don't compare them with them, they are not the same species!
Ning Yuan deftly used a kitchen knife to gut the chicken and clean out the internal organs!
Then start from the chicken feet and chop the whole chicken into medium-sized pieces. Of course, the chicken legs and wings are kept whole!
Although Ning Yuan wanted to stew chicken soup at first, after seeing the fat chicken, Ning Yuan drooled and thought that if it was made into roast chicken or beggar's chicken, it would taste even more delicious!
Thinking of this, Ning Yuan looked at the remaining chickens in the cage with ill intentions.
Forget it, it’s already been chopped into this shape. I’ll just bear with it and make some chicken soup first.
Then the process of boiling water and cleaning is repeated.
After thorough cleaning, I started to prepare the soup base and added various seasonings. The chicken soup became more and more mellow as it stewed.
It takes a while to simmer a whole pot of water, which is reduced to half a pot over medium heat. The flavor of the seasoning and the deliciousness of the chicken itself blend together, and the whole pot of soup begins to emit an attractive aroma.
Ning Yuan didn't eat much at Lao Mo at noon, he was just busy drinking. Now, when he was surrounded by this aroma, his stomach started to growl!
I couldn't wait to take a spoon and scoop a piece of chicken out of the pot, blew on it, and took a bite!
Mmm!!! So fragrant!! So tender!!
The meat is firm, delicate and chewy. Compared with the chickens in later generations that are particularly tough and have no chewiness at all, this free-range chicken is ten thousand times more delicious!
The aroma of the meat has been thoroughly stewed, but the amount is not enough. In addition to the brothers Ning Yuan and Ning Wei, Zhong Yuemin also has Yuan Jun and Zheng Tong.
Adding the three of them, there definitely won’t be enough to eat!
Ning Yuan thought about it, then took out three potatoes from the space, peeled them, cut them into pieces, and threw them directly into the pot. In order to stew the potatoes, Ning Yuan also added two scoops of water to the chicken soup.
While the chicken soup was slowly cooking, Ning Yuan mixed some noodles. When the chicken soup was almost ready, he got some noodles and cooked them directly into the chicken soup. Then a big pot of chicken noodle soup was ready!
Ning Yuan was kneading the dough while thinking about each step.
It was getting dark, and little Ning Wei came back from playing outside, sweating profusely.
As soon as he entered the door, he smelled the aroma of chicken soup that hit him straight in the face!
"Brother, you're back? What delicious food did you make? It smells so good!"
Ning Yuan hurriedly ran in and asked Ning Yuan!
"Okay, you're finally back. Go wash your hands and face first. Look how dirty you are, all covered in dirt!"
Ning Yuan was very happy to see little Ning Wei, whom he hadn't seen for more than a week. However, when he saw that Ning Wei looked like a bandit, his tone immediately turned to disgust.
Urge this boy to tidy himself up!
Ning Wei curled his lips, but didn't dare to refute. He had to look back at the bubbling pot every few steps and returned to the inner room.
Ning Yuan had already cut the noodles. After lifting the lid of the big pot of stewing chicken and potatoes, Ning Yuan poured the prepared noodles into the chicken soup!
This didn’t take long!
After little Ning Wei cleaned himself up, he came out just in time to catch Ning Yuan starting to cook!
Steaming hot and fragrant chicken noodle soup!
Ning Yuan served each of his two brothers a large bowl of food. The two brothers were already starving and didn't bother to talk. They just picked up the bowl and started to eat.
In just a few minutes, both of them finished their bowls of chicken noodle soup.
There was still a lot left, so Ning Yuan gave each of them half a bowl!
I ate a little slower this time, and after more than ten minutes, I finished my meal again!
"Alright, little bastard. I'll take the rest of these to your brother Zhong. Just stay home and wash all the pots and dishes! I'll deal with you when I get back!"
Ning Yuan was putting the remaining chicken noodle soup into an aluminum lunch box on the stove while scolding little Ning Wei.
"I understand, brother. Go ahead and I'll clean up these pots and bowls myself. Just come back and check on them!"
Xiao Ningwei agreed evasively.
How could Ning Yuan not understand what the kid was up to? So he came out of the kitchen carrying a few aluminum lunch boxes. When he was about to go out, he freed up his hand and slapped little Ning Wei on the head.
Then he took advantage of the night and pushed his bicycle out of the compound!
As soon as he went out, Ning Yuan put all the lunch boxes into the space.
He rode leisurely towards the Air Force compound.
When passing by No. 6 Hutong, Ning Yuan suddenly discovered that there were several more figures in front of him, and they looked unfriendly!
Ning Yuan could still tell whether someone was passing by or coming specifically for him.
There were three people in total. With the help of moonlight, Ning Yuan could clearly see that they were all wearing work clothes.
Ning Yuan had even seen the weapons in their hands.
But he didn't panic. After parking his bicycle, he secretly put on the iron vest in the space again.
Then he took the triangular scraper from his military bag in his hand.
Because they had almost calculated the distance, and they were not far away, Ning Yuan didn't even have the chance to turn around and run!
Ning Yuan had made all the preparations, so he was not afraid. There were only three people!
