Chapter 238 Homemade Essence of Chicken

The homemade version of chicken essence is actually chicken breast, dried shiitake mushrooms and dried shrimp skin. The three ingredients are ground into powder, and then mixed together to use their freshness to enhance freshness.

The freshness of chicken soup can be provided by chicken breast meat. Mushrooms are originally delicious foods in nature, and shrimp skins are delicious seafood foods. They have a fascinating fragrance.

Therefore, fry them, grind them into powder, and then blend them together, which is the home-cooked version of chicken essence.

Without technology and hard work, all materials are genuine and safe.

Xiao Nianzhi briefly talked about it, and then started making it.

In the early stage, whether it is frying, frying, or drying, she needs to do it.

The dried shrimp skin was very dry, but Xiao Nianzhi was afraid that it might contain impurities, so if he didn't clean it, it would affect the chicken essence afterwards.

So, I rinsed it again.

Afterwards, it is baked slowly on a low fire to thoroughly dry out the fresh fragrance, which is much better than direct drying.

Dried shiitake mushrooms and chicken breast are similar steps.

Near noon, the three ingredients were finally baked.

In fact, during the baking process, the fresh aroma has already drifted out.

A very fresh and natural, invisible, quietly seductive smell.

Anyway, Guanshi Qiu and the others were very curious, they asked Xiao Nianzhi, and knowing that she was not against her, they squeezed over to watch the excitement.

It's just that a group of rough men were too embarrassed to squeeze on Xiao Nianzhi's body, so they stretched their necks one by one, twisting their bodies into various positions.

Anyway, Aunt Yu was watching, and couldn't help applauding secretly: They worked too hard just to watch the fun!
You must know that most of Guanshi Qiu's group retired from the battlefield and had nowhere to go.

More or less, they all have some old diseases, hidden injuries, or obvious disabilities.

However, at this moment, they could no longer take care of it. Guanshi Qiu's weak leg also burst out with vitality at this moment.

Anyway, at this moment, Aunt Yu couldn't tell that there was something wrong with Guanshi Qiu's leg.

After the three ingredients are cooked, the next step is to grind them.

This step is a delicate job, because there is no wall breaking machine, so it needs to be ground slowly with a mortar.

If Xiao Nianzhi were to do it, it would probably take two days to do this job.

She probably would have to grind for a day just to grind this step.

The final powder needs to be fine and needs to be sprinkled into the dish to blend in almost perfectly.

Therefore, in the process of grinding, it must not be successful once.

Xiao Nianzhi put all the ingredients in a basin on the side, and then signaled Qiu Guanshi and the others: "Uncle Qiu, you can start grinding."

When Guanshi Qiu and the others heard this, it was finally their turn, and they were all gearing up for it!
It has to be said that even if Guanshi Qiu and the others retreated from the battlefield, stamina should not be underestimated.

This can be seen from the last time I whipped cream.

Grinding now is more visible.

Don't look at them as rough men, but they are very careful when doing fine work, and from time to time they will ask Xiao Nianzhi, is this okay, is that okay?
Xiao Nianzhi was tired all morning, now he can finally rest for a while, he only needs to deal with it occasionally, the inquiries from all the uncles are fine.

So, she directly took the new story book Xiao Qing sent and read it.

Aunt Yu was curious and came over, and found that Xiao Nianzhi should be reading all kinds of ambiguous romance stories that are popular in the capital, and they are not too explicit, so she nodded: "This one is not bad."

Xiao Qing's gift must have been checked carefully.

Moreover, he himself is not very old, and if he goes to copy books, those bookshops or bookstores' owners will definitely not be able to give him those stories that are too explicit.

When it came to Xiao Nianzhi's place, Xiao Qing filtered it a second time, and it was even more impossible to have any intention of crossing the border.

Xiao Nianzhi didn't understand what Aunt Yu meant, she just thought that the other party was bored and wanted to read it, so she picked up another copy and handed it to Aunt Yu: "Do you want to read it together, Auntie?"

Aunt Yu read the Tao Te Ching for a long time, and she was a little tired, so she took it just to change her eyes.

While flipping through the script, the master and apprentice gave some guidance to Guanshi Qiu and the others.

With their help, the ingredients are quickly ground into powder, and finally mixed together directly, and then sprinkle some when cooking...

Well, it must be much more convenient and quicker than stewing on low heat, and the delicious aroma of various ingredients.

It's not that there are no fresh seasonings nowadays, but most people can't afford many expensive ingredients, and the process is very long. It needs to be simmered slowly to extract the freshness from the ingredients.

This method of refreshing is not suitable for Xiao Nianzhi.

What she pictured is a convenient, quick and easy operation, so this home-cooked version of chicken essence is the best.

At noon, they ate buns brought back by Guanshi Qiu and the others, and they were meat buns!
After all, at the beginning of the month, the canteen budget is sufficient, and the food must be better.

But at the end of the month...

Well, it is possible that every day green vegetables, the eyes of the students who ate it turned blue.

It was a fool at noon, but for dinner, Guanshi Qiu and the others asked Xiao Nianzhi, if the little girl went to make supper, then they would not eat dinner and eat more supper.

Guanshi Qiu and the others were almost unattached, single, and part of the wages they earned were saved as coffin books for their old age, and part of them were used for daily food and drink.

Therefore, it is not too extravagant for them to have a late-night snack that costs money occasionally.

Today is sunny, Xiao Nianzhi is not good at being lazy, so when Guanshi Qiu asked, she nodded hurriedly: "I'm going, I'm sorry for the delay yesterday."

Hearing that Xiao Nianzhi was going to make supper, Guanshi Qiu smiled brightly: "Then let's not go to dinner, and wait for Yuan Niang's supper."

They all take care of Xiao Nianzhi as a junior, and when there are no outsiders, they are always called Yuan Niang.

Everyone joined the battle and produced a small pot of chicken essence, which is probably enough for a while.

As for what to have for dinner...

Xiao Nianzhi was also thinking, Aunt Yu read the book all afternoon, raised her head at this moment, and said suddenly: "I remember, the Osmanthus osmanthus in the back mountain should have bloomed, right?"

The master and apprentice haven't come back recently, so naturally they don't know the situation in the back mountain.

So, what Aunt Yu said was to ask Guan Qiu.

Although Guanshi Qiu is in charge of the procurement, he also knows everything about the academy.

After all, they are all fixed assets.

So, when Aunt Yu asked, he nodded hurriedly: "Yes, it's open, and the fragrance came out two days ago. During the lunch break, those students went to enjoy the flowers and poetry. I'm a rough man. After listening to it for two days, I remember one word, sweet osmanthus fragrance."

The batch of their academies are considered to be relatively early, but in August, the sweet-scented osmanthus from all over the country has also opened one after another.

However, because of the geographical location of the capital, it is more northerly, so more sweet-scented osmanthus blooms from mid-August to the end of August.

Like their academy, it opened at the beginning of the month, which is indeed early.

Xiao Nianzhi's eyes lit up as soon as he heard that there were sweet-scented osmanthus.

Osmanthus, it is also an ingredient!
