Chapter 978 Fried Catfish
Chapter 978 Fried cat fish
The sleet was not heavy, and it didn't last long. It stopped in less than two hours, which did not affect Xia Mingqi's departure the next day, nor did it affect Xia Mingxing and Li Xingxing's purchase of things at the aquatic products company.
They all went out after breakfast, and they were with Chen Xiangyang and Li Xiuhong.
Due to the existence of overseas Chinese exchange coupons, Li Xingxing's recent supply books have been blank, and he has saved a lot of useless tickets.
Li Xiuhong thought it was very simple. Since she could go to overseas Chinese stores that ordinary citizens could not enter, why should she go to designated grain and oil stores of ordinary citizens and queue up with them for the food?
If you get one less, one family will be able to buy the one that belongs to your family in advance, and you don’t have to wait for the next time.
Xia Mingxing and Li Xingxing bought a bucket of small fish that they didn't need to be ticketed with their book.
Small fish are small and have many thorns, which is troublesome to deal with. They cannot make good taste without frying, and are not very popular. Citizens would rather buy big fish and eat meat than buy small fish.
In other words, only those who really can't afford meat or can't buy big fish will consider buying small fish.
Creating soup is excellent, especially for mothers.
Since it is a small fish, there are naturally all kinds of small fish, such as wheat ears, meal strips, crucian carp and melon seeds, etc., which are just the length and thickness of the fingers, and they are jumping around in the bucket.
Li Xingxing held an enamel jar of brown sugar ginger tea and squatted by the tap pool to watch Xia Mingxing deal with it.
The water is too cold and the fish is fishy, so Xia Mingxing doesn't let her get stuck.
Only those who have to be cruel can do this work. Some small crucian carp are broken open, and some white meal strips are cut into a small mouth on the belly near the fish head, and squeeze out the fish intestines, blood and other substances inside.
Chen Nianen took Dapao and Erpao went to the International Hotel to accompany the two elders of the Xie family, so he could only do it.
Li Xingxing still commands randomly without working: "Brother Xiao Xia, pinch the head and tail, pinch the head and tail, I don't like eating small fish's head and always feel that they are not clean, they are too small."
If it were someone else's family, it would definitely be reluctant to take it away, but Xia Mingxing would be willing to take it away.
Pinch the head and tail, process it one by one, use a few more basins of water, wash it clean, then place it in an enamel basin, sprinkle with salt and seasoning, rub it on the small fish, and marinate it.
"In fact, it will take a few days to marinate with salt and five-spice powder, which will make it more delicious." Xia Mingxing said.
Li Xingxing rolled his eyes: "But I want to eat fresh food! As for the food, don't eat too salty. It is said that our country's intake has always exceeded the standard, which is not good for the body, so it's enough to have a bit of saltiness. Brother Xiaoxia, please believe in your skills!"
She always has her own reasons.
Xia Mingxing said drowningly: "Okay, I'll blow it up for you today, I'll go and knead it first."
"What kind of side do you think?" Li Xingxing didn't react.
Xia Mingxing said funnyly: "The fish must be fryed with batter and then fryed. Also, don't you say you want to eat meatballs and pineapples? I see that the rice, flour, and pineapples can be put directly into the pot, but the meatballs and pineapples must be mixed. What meatballs do you want to eat? Radish meatballs are the most common, and the meatballs are a little more troublesome, and you have to chop the filling."
Li Xingxing quickly got an idea: "Fried cat fish at noon for lunch and eat it for lunch, and keep the fried croquettes for dinner in the afternoon."
It’s said that it’s delicious just after the pot!
Xia Mingxing agreed.
He went to the cellar to dig out a pile of radish, rub a basin of shredded radish with a wiping, troweled the water, then put the seasonings in it, stir evenly, put the batter aside and wake up, then fry the small fish in the pan.
Before putting the pot, the fish were wrapped in a batter with seasonings.
The south is called fried cat fish.
