Rebirth after the 1950s

Yes, I would go out with a basket on my back every afternoon after school. Even if I couldn't dig out many wild vegetables, I would come back with a bundle of firewood.I couldn't even sell eggs on Sunday morning. I couldn't help but ask them: "Third brother, fourth brother, tomorrow is Sunday. Let's take a rest in the morning. Look, there are so many wild vegetables dried at home."

"Mianmian, you can rest if you want. We can't," the third brother said.

"Yes, no" said the fourth brother

"Why?"

Seeing how Third Brother and Fourth Brother didn't want to talk, I wanted to know more and more, so I just said: "Tell me, Third Brother, Fourth Brother"

"Okay," the fourth brother said in defeat, and then I heard: "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that for a year recently, the two of us didn't have enough to eat, so we would get a nest from here when we were leaving for school in the morning. We took the wotou to school and ate it when we were hungry. When we came back at noon, the second sister saw that there were two missing and asked us who got them. We both nodded and took them, saying that after practicing in the morning , I was hungry at school in the morning

Morning, the second sister did the same cooking from there, but she ate less at first, and finally after the eldest brother found out, the eldest brother also ate less and gave the extra to the second sister. From then on, the eldest brother and the second sister eat each other every day I'm hungry by morning.It’s not that we haven’t had enough food recently, so the second sister told my mother, and we listened to her.Aunt Liu said that the food my eldest brother bought was just for saving, and it was only enough for three months. It was enough plus the wild vegetables we dug every day. If there was some oil or water, we could eat less food.This is not something Third Brother and I discussed. After Sunday morning, we two brothers will not go out to play wildly. We will see if we can go to Xishanjiaoxia Avenue to pronounce the word pheasant or something. "

"Like This"

"Mianmian, you can't go, you know? It's not that we won't take you, but although it's not far from Xishan, if something happens, the two of us can climb trees anyway, and we really can't take care of you," the third brother said hurriedly

"Okay, but that's it."

"But what?" asked the third brother

"After the summer vacation, you two will take me with you. Then I will play at the foot of the mountain. You two go hunting pheasants and hares. And, by the way, does my Aunt Zhou know that you two are going to Xishan Mountain?"

"I know, even my eldest brother, second sister, and Aunt Liu know about this."

"I don't know if they are co-authors."

"Mianmian, we didn't hide it from you on purpose," the fourth brother said next to me.

"I know you are doing it for my own good, but we have agreed to be together during the summer vacation."

"I know, I know, my eldest brother and my second sister will also go there then," said the fourth brother.

"Okay then, go ahead and don't go too far in."

"I know." After saying that, the third brother and the fourth brother left. I went to Willow Alley alone and then to the hospital.

I really didn't expect that the third brother and fourth brother, who know how to play all day long, have started to become sensible, which is really good.

From then on, my mother asked us to practice aiming with a slingshot a hundred times a day after we finished practicing martial arts every morning.After practicing for more than a month, Third Brother Blind Cat encountered a rat and killed a pheasant, and even used it to show off to everyone. Even Uncle Shen wrote a letter to tell him. In the end, Shen During the summer vacation, brother Botu Xiaofang deliberately found a few breaks and took a few of us to the mountains to hunt, set traps, dig traps and so on.Also starting from this summer vacation, we can have a meal of meat every now and then.

For this reason, Aunt Zhou also told us: "When hunting prey in the future, if there is a pheasant or hare, we will eat it in two portions. If there are more, we will pickle them with salt and keep them for winter or without meat." It’s time to eat, you know?”

The fourth brother replied "I know"

"How about that?" Sister Nan asked

"When there is an extra one, I will take you to do it again. I am not afraid that you will not remember it, but I am afraid that you will not be able to do it well."

"Oh"

A few days after these words, the third brother and the fourth brother came home. They took out a pheasant and two rabbits from their baskets, and brought them to them. During dinner in the evening, they said, "Both the pheasant and the rabbit are good." It was my elder brother who did the hunting. We fried a hare and left a pheasant and a rabbit. Mom will finish the meal later, so you can call us salt meat."

"Hey, you guys are really awesome, okay"

Cured meat is very common in life. Cured meat is pickled with salt and is a food that satisfies public tastes. Good cured meat is delicious and can be stored for a long time, so it is very popular among people. Yes, in fact we can also make marinated meat ourselves. Let me introduce the method below.

Food charges:

Meat (pork, chicken, duck, goose, fish): 100 kilograms Salt: 14 to 16 kilograms of meat

Production Method

1. Ingredients: The raw materials for cured meat are divided into two types: bone-in and bone-free.Cured meat processed with bones is taken from continuous slices, small pieces, and legs according to the different parts of the raw meat.The continuous pieces refer to the pieces with the head, tail and legs removed; the small pieces refer to the rectangular pieces of meat of about 2.5 kilograms each (the legs refer to the pig legs with claws).

2. Trimming: Clean and remove minced meat, dirty blood, lymph, crushed oil, etc. In order to allow the salt to penetrate, the meat must be cut every 2 to 6 cm. The concentration is generally 1/3 of the meat.The size and depth of the knife edge depend on the temperature and the thickness of the muscles. If the temperature is above 15 degrees Celsius, the knife edges should be larger and more open to speed up the marinating; if the temperature is below 15 degrees Celsius, the knife edges should be smaller or less.

3. Salt production: Generally, rub the salt in three times, the first time is primary salt, the second time is large salt, and the third time is double salt.The initial salt is to apply a layer of salt evenly on the surface of the raw meat.The next day, add a large amount of salt, rub the salt evenly, stuff an appropriate amount of new salt into the knife edge, and stack it neatly into a pile.After 4 to 5 days, turn over, change the positions of the upper and lower layers, and sprinkle an appropriate amount of new salt.After about 7 days of compound salting, the stack should be turned over in time and a small amount of salt should be continued to be applied.Rub salt three times and it will take about 25 days to get the finished product.

4. Fixed salt: Cured meat can be stored in -5C cold storage, or immersed in salt water at 24 to 25 degrees.If the brine is turbid and has a peculiar smell, it means that the brine has deteriorated and the brine must be boiled again before use.The taste of cured meat is quite delicious. It contains a lot of salt. Salt can inhibit the growth of bacteria and microorganisms. Of course, cured meat also has this effect. The protein content in cured meat is very high, which can promote cell damage. The growth can also maintain the acid-base balance in the human body.

Therefore, eating cured meat is not only a taste enjoyment, but also a spiritual enjoyment, and there is not a lot of fat in the cured meat. If you eat it regularly, it will not cause obesity, and it will also make your body fat. The body's endocrine system is more stable.

In this way, we dated bacon, and it also started from this
