Chapter 31: Sister Tiger's Departure

When they heard that Ma Qiang was going to cook, many people were curious to watch outside the kitchen. If Lu Qingcheng and others hadn't blocked the door (to seize the best seats), someone would have to sit on the stove.

The main cooking utensil of Lin Huan's family is the cauldron, which is the thing that Xiang Yu smashed that day. The cauldron is a round-bottomed cooking utensil without boiling. It is usually used on the stove. It has been popular from the Warring States to this time. Later, Cao Zhi said

Dou crying in the cauldron also means that even if he reaches Cao Zhi's status, he still uses a cauldron.

There are various materials for cauldrons, and the best one is naturally iron. However, because iron is cheaper than copper, and copper cooking has been a popular method since the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, the upper-class nobles prefer to use copper cauldrons.

But in Lin Huan's house, it is a pottery cauldron, which is the most commonly used cauldron among the people.

Mrs. Wang helped to light the fire. The heat transfer of the pottery cauldron was relatively slow. Taking advantage of this time, Ma Qiang cut the bear tenderloin into slices and then beat three eggs. Ma Qiang clearly felt Mr. Wang's reaction while beating.

His hands shook. It seemed that this egg was precious even to an upright Lin Huan.

Coat the bear tenderloin with egg liquid, then coat it with a layer of flour, then place it on the hot pottery cauldron and fry it.

The shortcomings of the pottery cauldron were immediately apparent. The temperature dropped quickly and rose slowly, so Ma Qiang could only cook slowly.

In fact, the best way is to fry it, but if Ma Qiang had to use so much grease, Wang would have to feel distressed and angry.

While frying, Ma Qiang began to prepare the sour juice. The sour juice was prepared with honey, vinegar and salt.

When the meat was almost fried, Ma Qiang poured the sour juice on the meat. There was no sizzling and crackling sound as expected. There was nothing I could do, the pot was not warm enough.

When the meat absorbs the sour juice, your sweet and sour pork dish is done!

Pour the sweet and sour pork on the plate. The golden-red meat pieces are dripping with golden fat. A sweet and sour flavor bursts out, making people salivate when they smell it.

"Okay! Let's have a taste, everyone. I'm going to make another one to send to Sister Hu. This time I'm going to use more meat, so I'm afraid it will take a little longer.

Qing Ning helped me keep track of how much I used, so that when the toothpaste is sold later, I can compensate Lin Lizheng."

With that said, Ma Qiang glanced at Wang, and Wang's face looked better now.

Lin Huan couldn't help but hummed, "Ma Lang, what are you talking about? It's just some meat and eggs. The meat was given by you. You can take it all back. How can I get you to pay me back?"

Ma Qiang said with a smile while washing the pot, "That's not what Li Zheng said. We have a saying that we are brothers, we should settle accounts clearly. I know Li's justice very well, but if there are no rules, there will be chaos in the future. I will pay for the meat."

I give everyone the wages to help me build a house. If I can take decent meat and eggs today, I can also take other people’s things tomorrow. If others see it and imitate it, there will be chaos in the future.”

Everyone couldn't help but nod after hearing this, thinking that Ma Qiang's words were reasonable. Lu Qingning also went to find pen and ink to record it.

"Then I'm welcome!" Yue Yang has been waiting for a long time, and now he can finally eat. He was the first to pick up a piece of meat with his hands and eat it.

"What are you doing with your hands!" Lin Zhi pouted and said.

"It's delicious, it's delicious!" Yue Yang didn't have time to reply to him. He didn't even have time to eat, so his hand went to the plate of meat.

"Others still want to eat! One piece per person, don't eat too much!" Lu Qingcheng stepped forward to grab it and glared at Yue Yang.

"Just one bite..." Yue Yang licked his lips pitifully, hoping that the sweet and sour taste could stay in his mouth for a longer time.

"Delicious! Delicious! But it is a delicacy in the world. It turns out that honey and vinegar can be paired together like this." Lin Huan also took a bite and immediately praised this delicacy that he had never tasted before.

Lin Zhi's eyes narrowed to the point of eating.

Gao Yuze's eyes shone brightly after eating it, as if this dish had given her a lot of inspiration.

How could a plate of meat withstand so much artificiality? Many people didn't even get a bite of it.

With the experience of the first dish, the second dish was cooked much faster. This one was made much more than before, but everyone also knew that it was for the spiritual beast, and no one dared to snatch it.

After Ma Qiang went out with the meat, he encouraged Gao Yu, who was the best at cooking, to learn how to cook it.

In order to ensure that everyone can eat it, Gao Yu creatively changed the meat slices into meat strips, and sweet and sour pork appeared.

Chinese people's creativity in eating is always endless.

——

Ma Qiang came to Sister Hu's residence. Bai Yan and Huang Tu were sleeping in Sister Hu's arms. No wonder he didn't see Lin Zhi bringing them back just now.

Probably because she smelled it, Sister Tiger opened her eyes.

"Sister Hu, I promised you the sweet and sour pork. Eat it and see if it's still hot." Ma Qiang put a large pot of meat aside and picked up a piece of it himself.

Sister Hu stood up lazily, shook her head, walked over and took a bite.

After taking one bite, Sister Hu couldn't stop. The sweet and sour taste was already appetizing. She took one bite after another. Seeing Sister Tiger eating happily, Bai Yan and Huang Tu also gathered around and started eating together.

One man and three tigers ate up a bowl of meat.

"Ho!" - "I'm leaving!"

"What? How many more days are you going to stay?" Ma Qiang did not expect Sister Hu to be ready to go back to the mountains after eating.

"Ho ho ho ho!" - "There are few prey here and there is not enough to eat."

Also, there are hundreds of people from Dasong Village who have been causing harm to this mountain forest for so long, and there are no big prey left.

Tigers eat a lot, so they have high requirements for the number of large local animals. It is impossible to feed tigers just by relying on rabbits or the like.

The little bit of meat from the rabbit cannot make up for the consumption of the tiger.

"Okay... Then how can I find you in the future?" Although Ma Qiang was a little reluctant, he also knew that the tiger should be in the mountains and forests, not in the sea of ​​people.

"Roar!" - "Bai Yan knows how to find me."

The ones guarding the checkpoint today were Brother Lin Hai. When he learned that Sister Tiger, the spiritual beast, was leaving, Lin Hai hurriedly asked Lin Hu to notify Lin Huan and the others. Sister Tiger ignored him and jumped directly to the pass with the loess in her mouth. Then she jumped again

Just outside the customs.

"Roar!!!" Sister Hu yelled at Dasong Village, and Bai Yan in Ma Qiang's arms also meowed, as if saying goodbye.

"It's okay, I will take you to see Sister Tiger in the future." Ma Qiang rubbed Bai Yan's chin to comfort him.

By the time Lin Huan and others arrived, Sister Hu had already disappeared into the forest.

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye. During these seven days, Ma Qiang and others were making toothpaste. Each toothpaste was packed in a pine wood box. The wooden box was designed as a drawer type according to Ma Qiang's suggestion for easy access.

At the same time as toothpaste is made, soap is also made. Now everyone in Dasong Village is using soap to wash clothes. This thing is more convenient than soap locust, and it is added with flower juice and has a faint floral fragrance. Firstly,
Chapter completed!
