Chapter 395 Mutton Soup
Chapter 395 Mutton Soup
The soup in those mutton soup restaurants is always simmered over high heat. Xia Anan's soup has only been simmering for more than an hour, and it has already started to turn slightly white.
But now you don’t have to deliver the food, so don’t worry, you can cook it for a while longer.
First, place the lamb bones neatly at the bottom of the pot, and then put the lamb on top. This way, the lamb will not be stewed too soft, and even if it cannot be cut into slices, the nutrients in the lamb bones can be boiled out.
Prepare boiling water nearby and add water if it is low.
While the porridge is cooking, pour boiling mutton soup on the mutton from time to time.
Don’t worry about the so-called saltiness issue, after all, the seasoning is done after it’s out of the pot.
As the saying goes, low heat produces clear soup, medium heat produces thick soup, and high heat produces white soup.
If you like clear soup, then simmer it slowly over low heat. If you like white soup, then simmer it over high heat.
While stewing mutton soup, Xia Anan also made some pork skin jelly. The pig skin in the refrigerator was finally put to use.
After blanching the pork skin, scrape it clean and cut it into thin strips.
Put some water in the pot and put the pig skin in to boil.
When it becomes thick, pour it into an iron plate and after it cools down it becomes pork skin jelly.
If you want to eat softer pork skin jelly, don’t cook it for so long.
If you want to eat harder pork skin jelly, cook it for a while longer.
There are actually not so many particular requirements when it comes to cooking, just cook according to your own taste.
Xia Anan plans to make one with pickled pepper flavor.
I had two boxes of pickled peppers that I bought at the supermarket but hadn’t used them up yet, so I cut them in the middle and mixed them with the water from the pickled peppers to make a simple cold dish with the pork skin jelly.
The taste is lighter, not as heavy as that mixed with red oil.
Before lunch was even ready, Fu Sijia collapsed from exhaustion.
These things are delicious, and they would taste even better if he wasn’t the one making them.
Let Fu Sijia watch the mutton soup from the side and filter out the impurities stewed in the bones in the mutton soup from time to time. Xia Anan used the chili sauce made from mutton fat and rolled some mutton fat pancakes.
Sheep fat and chili are wrapped in the pancake, leaving a lingering fragrance in your mouth after one bite.
Xia Anan could hardly hold back her saliva while doing it.
Not only did she make mutton fat pancakes, she also made a few sesame oil pancakes, so no matter what flavor you like, you can have your fill.
"An An, can we discuss something?" Fu Sijia suddenly asked.
"what's up?"
Xia Anan put the fried cakes into a basket beside her and covered it to keep it warm.
Fu Sijia hesitated and said, "An An, can I go and give Jiao Jiao a bowl of mutton soup?"
He hadn't seen Zhao Yunjiao for a long time. He had been cooking the mutton soup for half a day, and he wanted to let Zhao Yunjiao taste it. Besides, Zhao Yunjiao was too thin, so he wanted her to replenish her body.
"...Why not? Just go!" Xia Anan replied.
It’s not strange to send food to someone you like, but what’s strange is that you are the one who cooks.
"Okay! Thank you, An'an!"
After Xia Anananan packed everything for him, Fu Sijia disappeared immediately.
He drove directly to the Zhao family's company and walked towards Zhao Yunjiao's office with a swagger.
Then he was blocked outside.
"Who are you?" The assistant searched for the identity of this person in his mind, eliminating them one by one and finally came to the conclusion that he didn't know him.
"I'm here to look for Jiaojiao. I'm here to bring her food." Fu Sijia said nervously.
"...Our President Zhao doesn't eat outside." The assistant said coldly.
Fu Sijia: "How is that possible? He went out to eat with me last time!"
The assistant looked at his face again to confirm that he didn't know him, and how could Mr. Zhao go out to eat with a man like this?
"Do you have an appointment? You can't come in without one."
"Do I need to make an appointment to see Jiaojiao?"
As the two people were struggling at the door, Zhao Yunjiao's voice came from inside.
"Let him in."
Fu Sijia immediately smiled and said, "Look, let me in."
"Why are you here?" Zhao Yunjiao was a little surprised when she saw it was him.
Fu Sijia took out the lunch box behind her: "I'll bring you food... mutton soup, do you want some?"
"Have you already eaten? That counts..."
Zhao Yunjiao shook her head: "No, thank you."
The boy immediately opened the lunch box he brought.
"Okay! Look, this mutton soup has been stewed for several hours. Here are chopped green onions, coriander, salt and chili oil. You can add them yourself. And here is this pancake. It's still hot. Eat it while it's hot!"
