Chapter 150: Chapter 150, honey roasted chicken, truly delicious
It was nearly six o’clock in the afternoon, and the yellow pear juice had been boiled for almost five hours.
Ning Fei came to the kitchen and called Jiang Xue. He took out the red dates he had bought, cut them in half with scissors, and then removed the red date core.
The cut red date pulp was placed on a plate, and some dried lily petals were also placed on the plate.
Then, Ning Fei opened the wooden lid. At this time, the lid was completely wet, and the yellow pears’nutrition was well preserved in the pot.
In the pot, the yellow pears, Sichuan scallops, and arhat fruits were gathered at the bottom, and a layer of pear juice was boiled on top.
Ning Fei found two towels and wrapped them around the sides of the pot. He picked up the pot and poured out some of the juice, then added the red date pulp and lily petals.
“Next is two decoctions, three hours.”
Ning Fei covered the pot and said.
Hearing his words, the netizens were speechless.
“Two decoctions? Three hours?”
“This is too troublesome.”
“The autumn pear paste made by the family is not so troublesome. Just keep boiling it.”
“Actually, it’s not troublesome. It just takes a long time.”
......
“Some things have to take a long time.”
“Slow work leads to fine work. It’s good enough that we can see it!”
“Yes, Abbey Dean Ning’s life is always so leisurely. He’s not in a hurry to do anything.”
“He said two decoctions just now. Don’t tell me there are three more decoctions.”
Ning Fei didn’t say much. He just said to Jiang Xue,
“We’ll have roast chicken tonight. I’ll go to Granny Li’s house to buy some steamed buns. We don’t have any steamed buns at home.”
“Abbey Dean, I’ll go.”Jiang Xue volunteered. “I know Granny Li’s house too. Besides, it’s good for my health to go out for a walk.”
Ning Fei looked outside. It was still very bright. It was not a problem for Jiang Xue to go out.
“Okay.”Ning Fei nodded in agreement. Then Jiang Xue happily walked out of the Taoist temple.
“Little Falcon, fly up and take a look. If there’s anything, Remind Me.”
Ning Fei was still worried, so he asked Little Falcon to fly up. Little Falcon understood and immediately flew up into the sky and circled around.
It was just buying a steamed bun. There wasn’t much of a problem, but it was better to be safe than sorry.
“I have to knead the dough tomorrow.”
Ning Fei thought to himself.
He then said to the netizens, “Most of the steamed buns made by farmers in the mountains are hand-kneaded. The taste of the steamed buns in Granny Li’s house is the best.”
“If you buy them outside, it’s best if you can buy hand-kneaded steamed buns. The steamed buns made by machines are very dry and not soft when eaten.”
These words made the netizens in the north want to cry but have no tears.
In the past, there were more hand-kneaded steamed buns sold on the streets, but now it was more convenient to mechanize them. The steamed buns sold outside were basically made by machines.
The soft taste was hard to come by again.
Not long after, Jiang Xue came back with two bags of steamed buns.
Ning Fei saw that it was almost time, so he placed the marinated roasted chicken in the oven and roasted it.
This method of roasting was the same as the beggar’s Chicken. It could maintain the entire flavor of the meat.
“For roasted chicken, roast it slowly at low temperature for 40 minutes, then brush it with a layer of honey to adjust the temperature. Roast it for another 20 minutes, and the honey roasted chicken will be ready.”
With the roasted chicken cooked here and the autumn pear paste boiled over there, life was quite comfortable.
When Ning Fei had some free time, he went to the vegetable field in the backyard to take a look. The most important thing he planted now was chili, along with two rows of tomato racks, a row of scallions, and a row of rape.
It had to be said that the effect of the fertile soil was particularly good. The crops he planted were full, sweet, and delicious. It was very comfortable to eat.
An hour later, the honey roast chicken was finished, and the mantou had been heated up.
It was now the time of autumn and the air was cool. The evening wind was blowing outside, and it was cool and comfortable. Ning Fei placed the table outside the courtyard and prepared to eat outside.
When summer came, the people in the mountain village would basically eat outside the house at night. After the sun set, the temperature outside was very suitable. This kind of cool feeling was something that the air conditioner could not achieve no matter how much it blew.
Ning fei fried two home-cooked side dishes and a plate of pickled vegetables. He placed the roast chicken in the middle of the table. After Jiang Xue set the dishes, she also poured a cup of tea for Ning Fei.
“The food at Qingfeng Temple is really enviable.”
“Everyone says that the standard of living in the city is high. Why do I feel that my food is far inferior to that of a mountain village?”
“That roasted chicken is way too good!”
“It’s the daily routine of a food streamer!”
“It’s decided. We’ll eat roasted chicken tonight.”
“This environment is really good!”
Ning Fei and Jiang Xue sat down. First, he used a knife to cut the roasted chicken into pieces. Then, he picked up a drumstick and put it in his mouth to have a bite.
“Yeah, the biggest characteristic of honey roasted chicken is here. It can make the chicken crispy and has a hint of sweetness, making the roasted meat even smoother.”
“It tastes really good.”
Listening To Ning Fei’s description, the netizens were instantly extremely jealous.
