Chapter 71 Sweet and Sour Pork Ribs
"Don't worry, I won't miss you."
Li Heng assured Lu Xiaoxiao who was working hard.
There was nothing new in Tian Daozong. Li Heng and Lu Xiaoxiao spent three days busy without even leaving the courtyard.
Today is finally the time to open the forum for verification.
"Ha~"
Li Heng, who had two panda eyes, yawned, braced himself, and opened the sealed vat full of expectations.
There is no longer a smell of wine in the tank, but a unique sour smell that belongs to vinegar.
The large vat now contains vinegar fermented grains, which need to be soaked in boiled and cooled mountain spring water for a day, and the filtered water will be vinegar.
Back and forth, Li Heng worked for about ten days in total, and the jealousy finally brewed in him in this other world.
It's a pity that no one can understand his excitement at this moment.
After all, in this Xuanwu Continent, no one would spend more than ten days for an inconspicuous condiment.
Li Heng scooped up a little vinegar with a spoon and poured a small sip into his mouth. A strong vinegary smell instantly filled his entire mouth.
This extremely familiar smell made Li Heng choke to tears. Sure enough, this vinegar is still suitable for cooking.
"Brother Li Heng, I want to try it too."
Lu Xiaoxiao, who had been busy with Li Heng for several days, had no credit but also troubles. Of course, she wanted to taste the fruits of her labor for herself.
Li Heng was not stingy and gave Lu Xiaoxiao a spoonful.
"Hiss~ It's sour, it tastes so weird."
Lu Xiaoxiao also took a small sip and grinned at the sour taste. This was another thing she had never drunk before.
"Brother Li Heng is so awesome. He comes up with something new every once in a while."
For brother Li Heng, Lu Xiaoxiao's admiration is like a torrential river, endless.
The vinegar Li Heng brews now is called new vinegar, and it needs to be further aged to remove moisture.
The traditional method is to take advantage of the weather, expose it to the sun in summer, and collect ice in winter, because vinegar will not freeze, and the frozen part is excess water.
Vinegar that has been brewed for more than three years can be called mature vinegar, and the taste of the vinegar will become more mellow by then.
In fact, in addition to the method of brewing vinegar that Li Heng is using now, Li Heng also knows a simpler method - brewing rice vinegar.
Making rice vinegar only requires four raw materials: rice, apples, sugar, and water. The brewing process is much simpler than the current one. Li Heng plans to try it if he has the opportunity in the future.
Now, since he was jealous, Li Heng planned to open a small window for him and Lu Xiaoxiao to reward them for their busy work during this period.
"Xiao Xiao, I'm going to cash in on the reward I promised you. Tell me, what do you want to eat?"
Li Heng asked Lu Xiaoxiao for his opinion.
"Yeah! I want to eat meat, I want to eat meat."
Lu Xiaoxiao jumped three feet high in excitement and rushed to answer. When it came to food, she felt that her fatigue in the past few days had been relieved a lot.
"Eat meat?"
Li Heng was a little strange. As a deer, Lu Xiaoxiao didn't eat grass, but he always had a soft spot for meat. Are you a deer or a wolf?
However, since he agreed to Lu Xiaoxiao, Li Heng just did it.
"Then how about making you some sweet and sour pork ribs?"
Li Heng asked.
"Uh-huh."
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded like he was pounding garlic. Even though it was a dish he had never eaten before, he just had to trust Brother Li Heng.
After seeing Lu Xiaoxiao nodding in agreement, Li Heng started cooking.
First boil a pot of water, use the boiling water to boil the ribs, and then rinse them with clean water.
Put a little oil in the pot, add an appropriate amount of sugar, and boil over low heat until it completely melts and turns brown.
Add the pork ribs and stir-fry, then add the sliced ginger and stir-fry to bring out the flavor.
Pour in boiling water to cover all the ribs.
Add one spoon of cooking wine, two spoons of soy sauce, and three spoons of vinegar. The last one is the highlight today.
Cover the pot and cook over medium heat for half an hour, until the pork ribs reduce their juices.
Finally sprinkle some sesame seeds and it's ready.
"Brother Li Heng, are you okay? I can't wait to eat it."
Lu Xiaoxiao was sitting at the dining table, holding a spoon in one hand and chopsticks in the other, shaking his two short legs anxiously, staring at the kitchen, and occasionally wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand.
"Okay, here we go."
Li Heng brought the fragrant and steaming sweet and sour pork ribs to the table.
"Eat."
Li Heng pushed the plate in front of Lu Xiaoxiao. Before Li Heng could finish speaking, Lu Xiaoxiao picked up a piece of ribs and started eating.
It was as if her hesitation was a sign of disrespect for this delicious food.
"It's delicious, sour and sweet, not greasy at all."
Lu Xiaoxiao was making ribs and commenting at the same time. After a while, his face was covered with soup, without caring about his image at all.
Seeing how delicious the Lu Xiao snacks were, Li Heng also took out his chopsticks, wanting to taste how delicious the vinegar-laced dishes were.
"Snapped."
Li Heng stretched out his chopsticks, but Lu Xiaoxiao caught them with his chopsticks.
"Mine, mine, everything is mine. Brother Li Heng, you can't steal it from me."
After Lu Xiaoxiao swallowed the meat in his mouth, he blocked Li Heng's chopsticks with one hand and guarded the edge of the plate with the other hand, fearing that Li Heng would take away even a piece of ribs.
"Lu Xiaoxiao, you have passed. Are you not allowed to taste a piece of the food I made?"
As Li Heng spoke, he dodged Lu Xiao's chopsticks and attacked the sweet and sour pork ribs on the table.
"I don't. This is what Brother Li Heng said you wanted to reward me. No one can snatch it from me."
Lu Xiaoxiao defended himself against brother Li Heng's sneak attack while arguing with reason.
To ensure nothing went wrong, she even stood on the chair and covered the plate with half of her body. Brother Li Heng should have nothing to do with her now.
"you......"
Li Heng laughed angrily at Lu Xiaoxiao's food protection operation.
"It's really yours. Are you willing to do it just for a few pieces of ribs?"
"I made these sweet and sour pork ribs. I'm afraid you don't know the priorities, right? Which one do you choose after a full meal?"
Seeing that his sneak attack was not effective, Li Heng directly began to threaten Lu Xiaoxiao.
"Brother Li Heng is right. What if I offend him this time and stop making food for me in the future?"
After Lu Xiaoxiao heard Li Heng's words, he felt like he was enlightened, and he instantly understood the stakes here.
"As promised, I can only eat one piece."
In the end, Lu Xiaoxiao's reason defeated her desire, and she chose to compromise, but not completely.
"Hehe, I only taste one piece. Brother Li Heng said this yourself."
Lu Xiaoxiao caught the flaw in Li Heng's words and said slyly that if it was just one piece, she could still accept the loss.
After saying that, Lu Xiaoxiao picked out the smallest piece of ribs from the plate and fed it to Li Heng.
"You are such a clever little kid."
Li Heng shaved the bridge of Lu's small nose and was too lazy to argue with this snack guy. Anyway, he just wanted to try whether the dishes with vinegar were more delicious.
When the pork ribs enter your mouth, the sweet and sour taste is mixed with a gentle sense of satisfaction. When you bite into it, your lips and teeth will be fragrant, and the taste of happiness is rippling on the tip of your tongue. It is simply amazing.
"Haha, what kind of delicious food is little friend Li Heng hiding in there? I smelled the fragrance as soon as I entered the courtyard."
