Chapter 385

Although Li Guanghua was reluctant to give up, he could no longer play tricks, so he had no choice but to kiss his little grandson again and again, and then he reluctantly went into the kitchen to prepare braised pork.

Chunmei was helping pick vegetables in the kitchen at the moment, when she saw her father coming into the kitchen, she said with a smile on her face, "Dad, Congjun and their chicken farm are going to hold a cooking competition, and I want to learn how to cook braised pork with you." How about you teach him your methods and secrets?"

Li Guanghua glanced at his daughter, pretended to be displeased and said, "I knew you two would not come back if you have nothing to do, so let him in."

"Okay, Dad, that's very kind of you!" Chunmei saw that her father looked angry, but in fact he was tofu-hearted. She smiled happily and put down the vegetables in her hand and called Congjun to go outside.

As for the cooking method of braised pork, Li Guanghua also taught it once after Chunmei had just given birth, but Lu Congjun and Guo Lanying always felt that they hadn't learned the essence, and the taste was not as good as Li Guanghua's cooking.

Lu Congjun came in, and after calling Li Guanghua his father, he began to follow Li Guanghua's every movement and step seriously.

"Look carefully and study hard. People who have eaten my meat say it is delicious. This competition must bring back the champion, but don't let me down!" He is very confident, he doesn't want his son-in-law to lose to his opponent in this dish.

"Dad, I'll definitely study hard, don't worry." Lu Congjun couldn't wait now, whether he could beat Beishui on the day of the competition depended on this dish.

"Okay, then you watch. When making braised pork, besides the proportion of soy sauce and sugar, the most important thing is the heat. If the meat is to be fat but not greasy, soft and rotten, you have to put Take care of the fire." After Li Guanghua solemnly told his son-in-law the main points of making braised pork, he immediately began to teach him personally.

He first taught Lu Congjun to prepare the ingredients needed to make braised pork, including: sugar, soy sauce, star anise, cinnamon, bay leaves, ginger slices and so on.After he taught Lu Congjun to prepare these materials one by one, he began to teach Lu Congjun to cut the meat.

"You must choose this kind of fat and thin pork belly, and when cutting the meat, it should not be too thick or too thin. It must be cut into such inch pieces. Come, try it yourself." Li Guanghua demonstrated to Lu Congjun , gave way to Lu Congjun to cut by himself.

Lu Congjun is a fast learner. After watching how the old man cuts, he can get started very quickly.

After the meat was cut, Li Guanghua told his son-in-law a very important step. He said: "The next step is to blanch. Put the meat in hot water."

"Why can't we put it in cold water?" Lu Congjun asked.When he was at home, he also made braised pork. For convenience, he put the blanched meat in cold water immediately to remove the foam.

"That's why the meat you cook is always not as tasty as mine. The meat you take out will not be as soft and chewy as soon as you put it in cold water, so it must be hot water." Li Guanghua looked at his son-in-law and explained speak.

Lu Congjun suddenly realized that there are so many specialties in putting meat over water. Today is an eye-opener for him.

In this way, after Li Guanghua personally instructed and supervised every link, Lu Congjun finally learned the essence of how to make this braised pork taste better.

Now, the ingredients are ready, the meat has been cut, and everything is ready to be cooked.After Li Guanghua's demonstrations again and again, the braised pork that Lu Congjun learned to make did not take a while, and finally the tempting aroma slowly wafted out.

About an hour later, this sweet, soft, chewy, flaky and brightly colored braised pork finally came out of the pan.When the lid of the pot was lifted, a burst of hot water vapor with the unique aroma of braised pork wafted out of the pot.

Chunmei approached the stove, fanning the mist towards her nose with her hands, she closed her eyes and exclaimed deeply intoxicated: "Wow, it's so fragrant! That's right, it's the smell, this is my smell." Braised pork that you can never get tired of eating from snacks to most! Congratulations, you have succeeded!" Chunmei opened her eyes after smelling the smell for a while, and said happily to Congjun.

Lu Congjun looked at the meat in the pot and smelled the aroma, and felt that what he cooked this time was very different from what he usually cooks himself.He couldn't help but took a pair of chopsticks and put a piece in his mouth to taste it first. It was really fat but not greasy and delicious!
"How about it? Hurry up and grab a piece for me too!" Chunmei saw her husband eating a piece himself, and she was so greedy that she was drooling while watching.

Lu Congjun saw that she was in a hurry, so he also picked up a piece for her and blew it for her intimately before putting it in her mouth.

"Oh! It's delicious, Dad, it tastes like this! It's been a long time since you made it yourself last time, I'm so hungry!" Chunmei said, feeling that eating a piece was not enough She wanted to snatch the chopsticks from Lu Congjun's hand again, and put another piece into the pot.

"Hoo hoo... Oh, I'm scalding to death!" Chunmei was so impatient that she put the piece of meat she had pinched into her mouth without even blowing it, causing her to stick out her tongue and suck in cold air.

"Eat slowly, what's the rush, there is still so much in this pot that you can eat for a while." Li Guanghua saw his daughter was scalded, and quickly said something distressed to her.

Chunmei stuck out her tongue and smiled sheepishly. She said, "Dad, it's because the braised pork you taught Congjun to cook is so delicious. I can't wait."

"You kid, it's not the first time you've eaten it, and you're so anxious, isn't this a joke for Congjun!" After Li Guanghua finished speaking, he subconsciously glanced at his son-in-law Congjun.

Lu Congjun only smiled dotingly, but when he returned the smile, he quickly poured a bowl of cold boiled water into Chunmei's hand, and said thoughtfully: "Two sips is enough, the weather is so cold. The cold water is too cold."

Chunmei responded, took the bowl and drank cold water, the burning sensation in her mouth got better.

After tasting the meat, the big bowl that Lu Congjun brought was ready to serve.He pulled some firewood out of the stove to make the fire smaller, and then he sprinkled some chopped green onions into the pot to add fragrance.

"Okay, you're done!" Lu Congjun held the bowl just out of the pot in his hand, looked at the extremely beautiful braised pork, and was full of confidence in his heart. He felt that if he relied on such a hard dish on the day of the competition, he would not win the championship. If not, it would be too unreasonable!

The braised pork was ready, and Lu Congjun helped cook other dishes. After all the dishes were ready, the family had a happy reunion dinner talking and laughing.

After the meal, Li Guanghua and Liu Cailan, who were full of soup and food, had nothing to do for a while, and staged another battle to snatch their grandson.The two of you compete for a hug for a while, and I compete for a hug for a while, as if whoever loses a minute of hugging will suffer a lot.

Lu Congjun and Chunmei watched the two old men who looked like real treasures quarreling, but they were enjoying their leisure.
