Chapter 141 Braised Pork Part One
Chapter 141 Braised Pork (1)
Wen Mingtang wanted to continue listening, but Liang Hongjin opened her mouth. She originally tried to explain the intricate relationship between the Goguryeo envoys, but when the words came to her lips, she didn't know where to start.
After several helpless attempts, Liang Hongjin had to give up and spread her hands and said: "You know, compared to fist skills, my verbal skills are not enough. How about I call you Dali Temple some time later?"
You listen carefully."
Wen Mingtang laughed "haha" when he heard this, said "ok" several times, and exchanged a few words with Liang Hongjin before returning to Dali Temple.
Compared with the Goguryeo envoys and the elixir of immortality, preparing for the evening meal at Dali Temple today is what she should do.
The meat dish brought to the farm today is pork meat. It has one layer of fat and one thick layer. The color of the meat is very beautiful with alternating layers of fat and pink and white.
Although the crepe wontons served in the morning are delicious and popular, the little elastic pork meat is not enough to fill the teeth. The amount of pork meat sent by the owner is enough. Wen Mingtang will naturally no longer be stingy with this meal in the evening.
Now that we have pork, we are going to make an old dish - braised pork.
The preparation of braised pork is very similar, but the real key to making this old dish is the details. Wen Mingtang found a large piece of black iron mesh from Lin Fei's "room" where he stored treasures.
Every time he goes to Lin Fei's house, Wen Mingtang can't help but sigh: Lin Fei has so many good things to use here.
Place the skin of the pork on the iron net downwards and grill it on the stove. When the skin of the pork is slightly rolled, move it aside immediately, and then gently scrape with a knife to remove all the hair on the surface of the skin.
.
"It turns out that it's done just by roasting it over fire!" Looking at the smooth and hairless pork meat, A Bing couldn't help but say. Thinking of the errands he was assigned to do when making braised pork meat at home, he grimaced, "If I had known this, I would have
Why are you plucking hairs one by one in the first place?"
It’s just that it’s tired, but the key is that it’s still not clean. After it’s cooked, looking at the unplucked hair on the surface of the pork meat is really off-putting and difficult to swallow.
Tang Yuan burst out laughing after hearing this. Watching Wen Mingtang put the pork belly cut into squares into the pot, he laughed and said, "So, I still have to ask Master Wen. Master Wen always has a convenient solution."
Put the pork belly into the pot, add wine, green onions and ginger slices. When the water boils and take it out, you see Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu walking to the kitchen with a serious look on their faces.
Seeing these two people approaching, Tang Yuan subconsciously glanced at the sky outside, and then reminded them: "Liu Sicheng, Bai Sicheng, it's still early for the evening meal!"
This pork belly has just been blanched in the pot, and this person is here?
Liu Yuan sighed: "The only way to relieve our worries is the delicacies provided by Master Wen."
Wen Mingtang glanced at the pork belly that was fished out, and said frankly: "It's still a long way from being a delicacy. The meat dish we eat tonight is braised in braised pork. This is a skillful dish!"
As he spoke, he poured some oil into the pot and started frying the meat.
The sound of frying meat rang in my ears, but it was not noisy at all. The smell of oil and meat coming from the pot gave people a strange sense of tranquility!
Liu Yuan couldn't help but sigh: "I thought this good life of reading story books and eating Master Wen's delicacies every day would last ten and a half months! Unexpectedly, in just a few days, things happened again!
"
Tangyuan was a little surprised when he heard the sighs. The last painting-skin case she "personally" participated in had just passed a few days ago. She didn't expect that there would be a new case in Dali Temple so soon. It's just...
"What case happened again? Why didn't you see the police officers going out?" Tang Yuan was a little puzzled.
Liu Yuan glanced at her and said: "There is no case. It's just a wave of people coming from all the way, and they are all troublemakers!"
After the imperial edict came down, Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu naturally went out to inquire immediately. After inquiring, they learned about the deeds of this wave of Goguryeo envoys, and they began to worry.
"If you are a guest at someone else's house, why don't you just go home and make trouble if you have something to deal with?" Liu Yuan said with a bitter face, "What's the point of making trouble at someone else's house?"
"It's because troubles can happen if you make trouble at home. No...when you leave home and have no restraints, you start to make trouble completely!" Bai Zhu's expression didn't look much better, presumably because he was also dissatisfied with the glorious deeds of these Goguryeo envoys.
Understood clearly.
Now, along with the imperial edict, there is another important matter.
"The elixir of immortality that they sent as tribute from Goguryeo has disappeared. Liu Yuan and I are asked to find the elixir!" Bai Zhu helplessly raised his forehead.
When Wen Mingtang, who was frying meat, heard this, he couldn't help but raise his head and asked the two of them: "Does Your Majesty really want to eat the elixir?"
"Of course I don't want to." Liu Yuan on the side heard the words and interjected, "Your Majesty is not the late emperor. He has great ambitions and is accompanied by a beautiful woman like the queen. He naturally wants to die in peace and leave his name in history. How could he want to meet the late emperor in advance?
Go? Could it be that he died before leaving the army?"
"Your Majesty doesn't care about this!" Bai Zhu answered, "No one with a clear mind would chew something the size of a fist that is said to be an elixir. The problem is that the people in Goguryeo must look for the national treasure they sent.
He said this represents the good friendship between the two countries."
It has reached the level of friendship between the two countries. Even if His Majesty doesn't care, this elixir must be found.
"Your Majesty has already cleared the court after he ascended the throne. Those who wanted to take advantage of the elixir like the late Emperor have already followed him to serve the late Emperor." Liu Yuan clicked his tongue. He really didn't want to waste time looking for these useless things, "
Nowadays, everyone inside and outside the imperial court avoids such things. Who would want to steal something of unknown origin? They are not afraid of eating people."
"Let me tell you, it was probably stolen by one of their own people!" Liu Yuan said this, and when he saw Wen Mingtang scooping up the fried pork meat and pouring in sugar, he asked casually, "What is Master Wen doing?"
The sugar in the pot was stir-fried into a brown liquid when it met the oil. Wen Mingtang stared at the melted sugar in the pot and said, "Fry until the color turns like sugar." After that, he poured the pork meat in and stir-fried.
"It turns out that cooking is so particular." Liu Yuan couldn't help but sigh as he watched Wen Mingtang pour the stir-fried pork meat with sauce, salt, sugar and various spices into a large casserole and add water.
"Everything is the same, and cooking is the same!" Wen Mingtang said, closing the lid of the casserole. This braised pork is a Kung Fu dish. The rest is just waiting.
Today's vegetable salad of shredded lettuce is a simple one, so there is no need to prepare it early. Wen Mingtang, A Bing and Tangyuan took a break and sat behind the counter to chat with Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu.
"Since everyone is idle, why doesn't anyone else take the call?" A figure flashed in Wen Mingtang's mind, "I see that Lin Shaoqing is a case-happy person, but he is so free that he doesn't interfere?"
As soon as these words came out, Liu Yuan and Bai Zhu looked at each other, and a subtle look appeared on their faces. After coughing slightly, Liu Yuandao said: "Lin Shaoqing is studying an old unsolved case, so he naturally has no time.
Let’s take care of this small case of theft.”
An old case? Wen Mingtang said smoothly: "What old case?"
Seeing no one around, Liu Yuan winked at her and whispered: "An old case that has something to do with His Royal Highness Prince Yu."
If this old case is found to be really related to King Yu, then the lawsuit will be entangled, and King Yu will be a relative of the emperor. With the emperor's lukewarm attitude towards King Yu, King Yu will shed his skin even if he does not die.
This can save Wen Mingtang a lot of trouble!
