At the height of summer, the sun was pouring down, and the entire capital was like a burnt through brick kiln, so hot that people couldn’t breathe.
Zhu Pingan arched his hand with the crowd outside the shop and once again invited them to come over for a taste at noon before turning around and walking into Zhu Ji Fast Food. Liu Dazhou and Liu Dahammer carried pig’s offal and followed Zhu Pingan into the shop.
At the height of summer, the smell of pig’s offal was very heavy.
Liu Dazhou and Liu Dahammer both walked into the shop carrying pig’s offal, and there was still a smell of pig’s offal lingering between the nostrils of the crowd outside the shop.
“Can it really be treated clean?”
Sniffing the foul odour lingering in the air, the crowd was not only full of questions.
“Oh, whether it’s a mule or a horse, wait until noon to know. It’s free anyway, so we can’t lose.”Someone said with a smile.
“Well, it makes sense. Anyway, it’s free, if it’s good, then we’ll have a place to save money for a good meal, if it’s not good, then we won’t come to his shop in the future. Around the same time, we won’t suffer any losses.”
People nodded their heads in agreement.
Zhu Ji Fast Food is a front shop and backyard pattern, the backyard can accommodate people, and there is a water well in the yard.
“Mu kid, bring me another basket of bricks here, Big Gun, is your mud ready, don’t forget to mix some straw into it. Let’s set up a simple stove next to the cookhouse first, and let them continue to work on the cookhouse side.”
Zhu Pingan just walked into the backyard and heard Liu Laobo’s strong voice, and then saw Liu Laobo, who had changed his clothes, rolling up his sleeves and building a stove in the yard, which had already taken shape under his hands.
Liu Mu was putting the spinning in the basket, Liu Dajun and Liu Daaxe were mixing the mud, and Liu Dagang was washing the pots and pans by the water well.
No wonder I didn’t see Liu Mu and the others just now, it turns out that they are all being used by Liu Lao Bo in the backyard.
“Liu Lao, why don’t you rest more in the mansion, just leave this side to us.”Zhu Pingan quickly stepped to Liu Lao Bo and said with concern.
“Your Excellency has come.”
Seeing Zhu Pingan return, Old Uncle Liu was about to get up and salute.
“Your Excellency has returned.”
Liu Mu, Liu Dajun and the others also came forward.
“But don’t, you old man just sit down.”Zhu Pingan hurriedly went forward and helped Old Uncle Liu to sit down, then waved his hand at Liu Mu and the others, signalling that they were busy with theirs.
After helping Liu old man to sit down, Zhu Pingan said with a bitter smile, “This journey is tiring, why don’t you rest for a few more days in the mansion, this side can be watched over by us, when the shop opens, it’s not too late for you to come out again.”
“Oh, don’t worry, sir. Our body is good, when I was young, I also went to the mountains to hunt bears, and I was fine for three days and three nights in the mountains, so this road is nothing. Lay down again, old man this body will be rusty, coughing ……”Liu Lao Bo said and also bravely patted his chest, wanting to prove that he is old and strong, the result of patting himself coughed and made a red face.
Seeing this, Liu Mu and the others cried and laughed.
“Huh? What smell.”
Liu Dajun sniffed a relatively strong odour and couldn’t help but move his nose, asking in surprise.
“Yeah, it feels like pig jowl ……..”Liu Dagang also inhaled his nose.
“Cough cough, it’s pig jowl.”Liu Dazhou coughed and raised the pig’s offal in his hand, and Liu Dahammer followed suit and shook the pig’s offal in his hand.
“What did you buy pig offal for, and you bought so much, this stuff can’t get clean.”Liu Da Gun shook his head.
“Duke doesn’t know, don’t you guys know, why did you buy back so much pig offal.”Liu Mu went up and chastised Liu Dahammer and Liu Dagger.
“That’s right, it’s not like you guys haven’t eaten this pig offal before.”Liu Dajian and the others followed suit.
“Ahem, this is what I’m going to buy.”Zhu Pingan touched his nose and relieved Liu Dagger and Liu Dahammer of their troubles.
“Ah? That ……Your Excellency may not know, although this pig’s jowl is cheap, it’s not cleanly handled, and it’s not tasty when it’s made.”Liu Dazhun explained.
“The big gun said is, before the famine, I also tried to clean up once, just like cleaning up the goat’s underwater, but also dealt with several times, but finally made out, that stock of foul odour is still very big. If it wasn’t for the fact that I was really hungry and couldn’t do anything about it, the village people wouldn’t have been able to stuff it down hard.”Old Uncle Liu said and shook his head.
“Oh, Liu Lao, don’t worry, if it’s not handled cleanly, I won’t buy this pig’s offal either.”
Zhu Pingan said with a smile.
“Pig jellies can be handled cleanly?”Liu Dajun and the others were surprised at what they heard.
“Can.”Zhu Pingan nodded his head vigorously, “Our family has an ancestral secret recipe that can treat the pig’s offal cleanly.”
In order to increase his persuasive power, Zhu Pingan only had to borrow the gimmick of an ancestral secret recipe once again.
Under the guise of an ancestral secret recipe, Zhu Pingan commanded Liu Dazhou and the others to start dealing with the pig’s offal.
In fact, Zhu Pingan was originally prepared to lay his hands on it, but Old Uncle Liu, Liu Mu, Liu Dagger and the others said nothing. There was no other way, so Zhu Pingan had to move his mouth and direct Liu Dagger to deal with the pig’s offal.
Old Uncle Liu was also curious about how to handle the pig’s offal, so he let Liu Dahammer, Liu Mu and the two of them continue to class the stove, and he himself came over to help handle the pig’s offal.
“Different parts of the pig’s offal are handled differently. Pig heart is relatively simple, the average person will, cut open the heart of the pig, clean the pig’s blood, remove the white tendons and you’re done.”
“Pig lungs are also less flavourful, people generally wash it a few times and cook it directly, but the taste and texture are not very good, this is because pig lungs are one of the organs of pig detoxification, which contains a lot of dirt, it must be processed cleanly to be good. When dealing with pig lungs, pay attention to a few steps, the taste and texture will be much better. First, cut off the lard attached to the pig lungs, and then fill the throat of the pig lungs with more water, filling the bulge, and then slap and squeeze the pig lungs with your hands to squeeze the blood out of the inside, and just repeat this three or four times and it’s almost done. Then it can be put into the pot, the pot should be more water, and then put another pot on one side of the pot, put the pig lungs into the pot, put the throat of the pot into the pot with more water one end into the pot, wait until the high heat to boil, there will be a lot of foam from the back of the throat to overflow, wait until there is no foam, then put the throat into the pot. When the pig lungs are completely discoloured, you can fish them out.”
Zhu Pingan guided Liu Dazhou as they cleaned the pig lungs, while giving Liu Lao and Liu Dazhou a detailed description of the precautions for cooking the pig lungs.
“After fishing out the pig lungs, then slice the pig lungs, put cold water in the pot, and add ginger, peppercorns and cooking wine. When the water boils, there will be a lot of foam produced, then turn off the low heat and continue to cook for a while before turning off the heat. Fish out the pig lungs and wash them with water a few more times until all the foam on the pig lungs is cleaned, and these pig lungs are even processed.”
