A good time for farming through the ages

Chapter 99 [099] Egg Soup
The sister-in-law just killed and washed the fish for a day, and then marinated the fish with salt at night. The salt here is large-grained salt that has been stored for a long time.

There are many ways to marinate fish. In Guizhou, it is marinated with sweet glutinous rice and chili. It is stewed and eaten, but if you want to keep it for a long time, you still need to use ingredients such as white wine, sweet glutinous rice, trough, aniseed, chili salt, etc. There are also people in the village of glutinous rice rice, so it is not difficult to buy, use the food at home It is also possible to change.

In the end, it took the sister-in-law and sister-in-law three or four days to put these fish into the jar, and there were dozens of them dried into cured fish.

Smelling the smell of fish all over the yard, Zhuo Lin was actually happy in her heart, because it means that this year will be a good year, and these cured fish may be eaten before the New Year, although there are no fish Silver carp and grass carp grow so big, but to be able to eat some of them is already quite impressive.

Because of the hunger last year, this year, Auntie and Auntie filled the yard with jars of pickling.

These jars contain chili sauce, chopped pepper sauce, capers, potherb mustard, pickled cucumbers, pickled shallots, etc. Now there are more pickled fish, which can be said to greatly increase the choice. Of course, there are twenty or thirty bottles The ketchup and those glass bottles for IV drips were all bought by them at the health center. They cost two cents each and cost one yuan. Uncle's family and their family each had 25 bottles.

Just saving these bottles, I went to the health center many times. After all, in this day and age, there are not many people who can get a drip, unless it is an emergency.

One week after the rice flower fish is marinated, the rice harvesting begins. This is also a heavy physical work. At home and abroad, anyone who can ask for leave has to ask for leave to come back to help.

Zhuo Lin consciously took on the responsibility of taking care of her younger brother and cooking. Compared with the summer harvest, the autumn harvest food was obviously much better, at least the family had food to eat.

But they still seldom eat serious white noodles. Most of them are mixed with corn flour, sorghum flour, and sweet potato flour to make steamed buns and eat them steamed.

The steamed buns are usually steamed by my mother before leaving in the morning. Her task is to steam a pot of sweet potatoes, or steam the very small corn together. They are not willing to go to the field all summer Eating corn, I am afraid that every grain of grain will be wasted, so Zhuo Lin, who has not eaten corn for a long time, cherishes the small corn picked home from the harvested corn field.

There are steamed buns, sweet potatoes, and corn, and the staple food can be guaranteed. A large pot of fried vegetables, a cold pickle, and a pot of vegetable soup are greatly satisfied.

Vegetable soup is made by chopping vegetables at home, putting them in a soup pot and cooking them. When they are almost cooked, sprinkle some salt, stir in an egg liquid, and finally stir in some flour or sweet potato powder to make the soup look less leaky and come out. The taste is very delicious.

The eggs are laid by the hens at home, and they have been able to lay eggs since September. She and Zhuo Jian each lay three or four eggs a day.

Egg soup is not available every day, but during the busy farming season, there is egg soup for every meal, because adults also need to maintain physical strength and nutritional balance, satiation is the first priority, and eating well is secondary.
