I took a look out of the space and found that it was already past ten o'clock, but Xiao Li hadn't come back yet and the room was very quiet. ¨‹.ww.¡ø Xu Yi took the time to pick some vegetables, caught a fish, and brought out two pieces of tofu he made yesterday. There were still a few pieces of tofu left. Xu Yi thought about it and thought that he might not have time to eat it, so he simply sprinkled it with salt and sliced ??it in the space to dry. Although it tastes better after marinating it with seasonings and then drying it in the sun, I don¡¯t have that much time now, so it¡¯s better to just do it this way. Furthermore, this kind of dried tofu without seasoning has a unique flavor. What's more, this is a high-salt food. It's okay to eat it occasionally, but it's not a good thing to eat it too much. After moving things out of the space and just killing and cleaning the fish, Xu Yi heard the sound of a key opening the door from outside. It must have been Xiao Li coming back. As expected, after a while, Xiao Li's soft voice came from the living room: "I'm back." Seeing that the kitchen door was open, he guessed that Xu Yi was busy. Xiao Li put down his things and wanted to come over to help. As soon as I entered the kitchen, I saw Xu Yi washing fish by the pool. The fish was really big, with half of its tail hanging out of the pool. "How can you eat such a big fish?" Xu Yi smiled, "It's not a big problem. You can eat more than one fish. You can choose what you like, braised, steamed, deep-fried, stir-fried, you can eat it however you want. Besides, this grass carp needs to be bigger to be delicious. If it¡¯s too small, it won¡¯t taste good. Besides, if this fish is bigger, there¡¯s no need to eat it all in one meal.¡± Xiao Li nodded, ¡°Then I want to eat fried fish, okay?¡± "Xu Yi listened to the black line on his forehead. He thought the grass carp was big in the first sentence, but he thought about the abalone in the next sentence. This is really a big idea. There is indeed a fish market in the provincial capital, but after all, it is deep in the hinterland and the rivers and swamps in the province are densely covered. Most of the time, residents mainly eat freshwater fish. But these days, if you have money, you can even buy animal protection products. Not to mention seafood. The price of farmed abalone is still affordable to ordinary people, and the taste and texture are just that. After thinking about it, he nodded. "I want to eat abalone, but it's too late at noon. I have to wait until I finish my errands in the afternoon and go to the fish market to find out. I can't afford the big ones, and the smaller ones seem to cost less than ten or eight yuan each, so we'll still eat them. I can afford it. ¨‹¡ñ.ww.¡ôBut let me tell you in advance. I don¡¯t know how to do this.¡± Hearing what Xu Yi said, Xiao Li was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter. "I'm not talking about the kind of abalone in the sea. "Explosion" means "explosion", which is actually fried fish. You can't eat such a big fish in one meal, so you might as well fry the fish, so you can take as much as you like and keep the rest. It's hygienic and convenient to refrigerate. " "Okay, you have the final say!" Xu Yi nodded, feeling a little embarrassed. "Then how to do it. I'll help you." "You just help me cut the fish body into pieces, and use the head and tail for other purposes." Xu Yi started to cut the fish in three, five and two strokes. Leave a piece of fish meat on the head, otherwise the fish head will be full of bones and not tasty. "The fried fish is delicious only if it is in big chunks. However, this pot is too small and the firepower is not enough. If the chunks are too big and not cooked properly, it will not taste good if soaked in oil. Help me cut the fish into two pieces along the spine. Then just cut the fish into pieces of about one centimeter." Xiao Li pointed at Xu Yi and put on an apron himself. I washed my hands and found all the condiments I needed. She is a girl after all, and the ingredients needed to make a dish are quite special. After searching around, she frowned. "Isn't something enough?" Xu Yi saw Xiao Li's expression. Knowing this must be what she wanted the seasoning was gone. "Well, there is no rice wine and lemon. If you have something to do in the afternoon, forget it." Xu Yi smiled, "I have something to do, but I made an appointment at two o'clock, so it's too late." "Then I'll buy it now." talk. Xiao Li reached out and took off his apron. Xu Yi looked outside, the red sun was scorching, "Don't go, it's too hot outside, I'll go wait until the fish is cut." As for lemons, there are several trees in the space that you don't need, so don't buy them, but the rice wine itself But there is nothing we can do. But in this kind of weather, if Xiao Li makes another trip, he will be in trouble if he suffers from heatstroke. ¡°After all, not everyone has money these days, and not many people dare to help an old lady who has fallen. How many people can bear to drive an Audi on the street, help an old lady, and then have to drive an Alto when they come back? ¡°Just imagine, when Old Mrs. Lan couldn¡¯t wake up, she was afraid that her trouble might not be too small. Of course Xu Yi has never regretted saving people. ?People's hearts are always kinder. Regardless of whether it is true or false, it is always the mission of medical workers to "save lives and heal the wounded and implement the humanitarian spirit of morality". Even if Xu Yi is not prepared to go far here, it does not mean that he can even give up such a creed. ¡ô¨‹ If you have to look forward and backward when it comes to life and death, that¡¯s really not your character. But there is no need to let Xiao Li take the risk of heatstroke. Her constitution is too weak, so even if there is no accident, heatstroke will be a troublesome thing. Anyway, it won't take long to go back and forth. "Yeah" Xiao Li nodded slightly, reached for a basin, filled the fish pieces, and soaked them in cold water. "Then make a braised fish head and tail with the remaining fish head, and then have a steamed fish head, do you think it's okay?" Xu Yi smiled and nodded. This fish is of good quality. As long as you don't mess with it, it will taste good no matter how you cook it. . As for tofu, it can also be used to make mapo tofu or homemade tofu, or even vegetable and tofu soup. "It's up to you. Is there anything else you want to buy?" Xiao Li looked around and said, "Nothing, just buy some more pickled peppers." "That's okay, I'll be back soon." As he spoke, Xu Yi washed his hands and walked out of the kitchen. There are indeed some lemons that have been picked, but they are all stored in the cellar. We have to go get a few now. If we want to take them out in this space, we must first be able to see them. Entering the space, he took a few lemons and a box of strawberries and put them on the stove. Xu Yi turned around and left the space and went out. I bought a can of rice wine and a bottle of pickled pepper and came back directly. I used the old method to take the lemons and strawberries out of the space in the stairwell, and then Shi Shiran went upstairs with his things. I have to say that Xu Yi felt the same way. Looking at the people outside, they were all sweating. As long as they could walk in the shade, no one would stand in the sun. On the contrary, I was tossing back and forth, and I only sweated a little on my forehead, and I didn¡¯t even feel any sweat on my back. He is also becoming more and more sure of what this space has brought to him. It's definitely not just a little stronger, but the ability to adapt to the environment has been significantly enhanced. Does this count as ¡°invulnerable to cold and heat¡±? Putting the things on the counter, Xu Yi stopped his random thoughts and asked with a smile, "Are these enough?" Xiao Li reached out and rummaged through the bag. "That's enough. You go and rest for a while. It's so hot outside. I can do the rest myself." As he spoke, he took out two lemons from the bag. After washing, peel directly, cut into pieces and put them into a juicer to squeeze out the lemon juice. ¨‹.ww.¡ø ¡°Then I¡¯ll cook the rice.¡± Xu Yi wasn¡¯t hot either, and felt a little embarrassed to be bored. Although Xiao Li is his patient, he can still be regarded as his guest. How can he really "overwhelm the guest" while doing work? I have to say that this lemon should be pretty good. The fruit was not only big enough, but also plump in shape. Xiao Li began to peel it, and the unique fresh and elegant taste of lemon soon filled the entire kitchen. Taking a breath, he felt that even the air was much cooler. Pour the rice wine into the basin. Add the squeezed lemon juice and stir evenly, then Xiao Li puts the fish segments that have been drained of moisture into it, mix well and marinate. Looking at the head and tail on the chopping board, Xiao Li had no choice but to ask Xu Yi for help, "Xu Yi, help me cut the fish head open from the middle. I can't cut this." Xu Yi nodded, took the knife, and raised the fish head. With one cut, the fish head was cut open. Xiao Li rinsed the cut fish head, poured a little vinegar on it and set it aside. First, shred the ginger and green onion, then take out a few pickled peppers and cut them into sections and put them in a small bowl. Wait until these seasonings are processed. Xiao Liyou rinsed the fish head with water, sprinkled a little salt on the fish head, poured half of the onion, ginger and pickled pepper on top, and then poured some steamed fish soy sauce on top. Put it in the already boiling steamer and steam it over high heat. Seeing Xiao Li¡¯s operation, Xu Yi nodded secretly and felt completely relieved. It¡¯s not like Xiao Li has never made anything before, but when I think about it, if a girl lives by herself, if she doesn¡¯t know how to cook, then eating is really a problem. Even if you really don¡¯t know how to do it, I¡¯m afraid it will take a month or two on your own. Learned and learned. The kind of little man who does not stick to the spring water, and only the little man who can only have dark cooking. I am afraid that I have never been hone to life. It is really just cooking for fun. When the fish head was put into the pot, Xiao Li put a wok on another stove, poured in a little oil, simmered the pan with minced onions, ginger and garlic, then added some soy sauce, vinegar and sugar, and then poured in half a bowl of water to cook. stand up. When the soup boiled, she added a little chicken essence to it, poured the soup into a large bowl, and set it aside to cool. "This is the sauce used for frying the fish. It will be used after the fish is fried."Clean the pot again, Xiao Li told Xu Yi. After drying the pot, Xiao Li poured half a pot of oil into the pot and slowly heated it up over low heat. Pick up the marinated fish segments and control the moisture. The oil in the pot is almost at the same temperature, and you can see some slight turning. Xiao Li used chopsticks to hold the fish segments piece by piece, put them into the pot and slowly fried them. While putting them in, he gently stirred them with his chopsticks to prevent the fish segments from sticking together. ¨‹ The fish segments are not thick, so it only takes three to five minutes for the cooked fish segments to float and take on a light yellow color. Xiao Li took out the fish segments, drained the oil and set them aside, and then started frying them in the next pot. When all the fish were fried, Xiao Li removed all the debris from the pot, then turned up the heat until the oil was almost boiling, then added the fish pieces to the pot and started frying again. Until the fish pieces were fried to golden brown, she took them out and put them directly into the sauce to soak for a while, then drained them and put them on the plate. The fish segments that have absorbed the sauce turn a slightly crystalline golden color, and exude a strong fragrance. The sight of it and the smell of it make people's hearts beat. After filling a plate, Xiao Li stopped, turned off the fire, bagged the remaining fish segments and put them in the refrigerator. "This dish is delicious only made in restaurants. It heats up quickly on a high flame. It would be better if the fish pieces can be squeezed into a slightly brown color. If you make it at home, you have no choice but to fry it to this extent. If you accidentally fry it, it will be burnt. It would be a pity." Xu Yi nodded, "Do the ones in the refrigerator need to be fried again before eating?" "Yes." Xiao Li nodded and poured the oil from the fried fish into the jar. Save it for cooking and for frying fish next time, don¡¯t waste it. ?????????????????????????????????????No one eats so much fried food every day, let alone the possibility of reusing oil like thousands of times. Oil soaked in fish fat. Even if fish is not included, the stir-fried dishes will bring a strong fish aroma, and some dishes can also add a taste. The fish steaming pot next to it is steaming with steam, and the fragrance is coming to your nostrils. It's time to get out of the pot. Turning off the heat and opening the lid of the pot, Xiao Li used chopsticks to pick up the steamed onion and ginger shreds on the fish head that had absorbed the aroma, and then sprinkled some raw onion and ginger shreds on top. Put a little less oil in the wok, turn on the heat and throw in a few peppercorns, saute them until fragrant and pour them on top. The sizzling sound of boiling oil poured on the green onion and ginger shreds. A steaming heat filled the air, filling the room with fragrance. Xiao Li nodded secretly. The fish and the seasonings were both great. He felt that he was very good at it. The taste must be excellent. "This is ready." "I'll take it out." Xu Yi took the heat-insulating mat and put it away, then used a rag to cushion the plate and took it out. Xiao Li was not idle either. He directly placed the fish tail on the chopping board, made a horizontal cut on one side of the fish tail, cut it to the depth of the fish bone, and then cut along the fish bone. Then extend the knife into the edge and cut it flatly to the left and right sides until it is close to both sides. The two -half fish flesh turned on the sides of the sides and pressed it with the side of the knife. The scattered fishtail was like a fan. Then Xiao Li turned the fish tail over and made a few cuts in the thick part of the fish along the direction of the fan bone, so that the fish could be cooked more easily and taste better. Heat oil in a pot, add onion and ginger and stir-fry, then add a few peppercorns and stir-fry until fragrant. Put the fish tail with the skin side down into the oil pan and fry over low heat for two or three minutes until the aroma comes out. When the fish meat turned white, Xiao Li turned off the fire, sprinkled in a little cooking wine, and poured in two spoons of soy sauce. Add two more spoons of sugar and bring to a boil over high heat, then switch to low heat, cover the pot and simmer. After about five or six minutes, Xiao Li opened the lid of the pot, turned on high heat to collect the soup, and waited until the soup was almost gone. Then thicken the gravy with a little water starch, sprinkle with chopped green onion and serve on the plate. Looking at the dishes on the plate, Xiao Li was silent for a while and whispered: "When I was young, I caught up with the wave of layoffs. Both my parents were laid off, and the family had no fixed income for several years. When the income was good, "Every weekend, my father would go to the market and buy fish tails and cook them for me to eat." "But when I asked them to eat them, they all said they didn't like fish tails. This is really the most memorable thing in my memory." In this way, one fish can be eaten three times, and it is possible to make a meal during the holidays. " "The best thing for making this dish is the herring tail, but the price of the herring tail is comparable to the price of silver carp. So what I eat the most is the fish tails of silver carp and grass carp.¡± ¡°My mother¡¯s cooking is not as delicious as my father¡¯s¡± ¡°After I grew up, I realized that although it is said to be a local dish in Shanghai, it is actually a local dish. This dish is still an authentic Anhui dish, a little bit like our own dish.None of them match. " Xiao Li said intermittently, and he seemed to be immersed in the old scene. "However, this is a home-cooked meal, but there is really no way to tell which faction it belongs to. Even the dishes of different factions have many crossovers, and at best they have different styles. In fact, this dish is still the same dish. Just like we have braised fish head and tail here, no one calls fish tail paddling. "Xu Yi looked at Xiao Li and still smiled when he started to speak, but his expression and tone were a little bit sad. He was probably thinking of his parents, so he quickly changed the subject. "That's true, my aunt also likes to dry-burn the head and tail, but I can't eat spicy food like them. Every time I go there, she is afraid that I won¡¯t be able to stand it, so she adds less or no chili pepper at all. " "You said local cuisine, this is Shanghai cuisine. Are you from Shanghai? " Xiao Li nodded, "Strictly speaking, it's half. My father is from Shanghai and my mother is from this province. My father cut in line on the farm in his early years, and he met my mother who also cut in line on the farm. Later, we caught the last bus of the return-to-city policy and went to Shanghai together. " "That's no wonder, there aren't many spicy food places in Shanghai. "Xu Yi nodded. The kitchen was a little stuffy. After the three dishes were cooked, Xiao Li's cheeks turned red and there was a fine layer of sweat on her forehead. Xu Yi didn't dare to keep her busy anymore. He beat her out and fired her again. After cooking some green vegetables and making a bowl of soup, I put the casserole on the stove and started boiling it slowly over low heat. This way, when Xiao Li took the medicine, the medicine was almost done. Li just went out to take a breath, but then went back to the kitchen. Xu Yi simply took the opportunity to tell her all the things to pay attention to when decoction. The concentration of the medicine decocted by the hospital must be ensured, so the concentration is high. It is difficult to guarantee, and the timing of adding various ingredients may not be reasonable, which will also reduce the efficacy of the medicine. This is the hottest season of the year. If you fry too little at one time, you will have to go to the hospital; but if you fry too much, you will have to go to the hospital. It can only be placed in the refrigerator. Even the freezer is only antibacterial but not sterilizing. It is not safe to store it for a long time. In addition, it has to be reheated before drinking. It doesn't save much trouble anyway. There are too many things, it is more secure to cook the medicine yourself. There is no doubt that the dishes at noon are delicious and the taste is also full of variety. The rich fried fish and braised fish head are paired with the delicious fish head. The green vegetables and the fresh tofu were quite balanced. Neither of them were talkative people, so they didn¡¯t talk much at the table, but they still enjoyed the food, especially the fish heads. There was nothing left. The food tasted good, and Xiao Li unknowingly ate half a bowl of rice more than usual. This also made Xu Yi secretly think about whether it would be better to raise a few more fish than to buy his own meat. It¡¯s cost-effective. It can also add some nutrition to Xiao Li and help her recover as soon as possible. After all, fish is easy to absorb and has low fat content. Even if you eat it regularly, you won¡¯t consume as much saturated fat as meat. Risk. Since there is space, you only need to buy smaller fish and keep them in the space for a while. Even if you simply replace them with fry, the cost of eating fish may not be as high as eating tofu and vegetables. How much higher. (To be continued.) ps: We are together, it will be gone tomorrow, I think it is better to write a big chapter like this
