Chapter 450: Show off, right?
Ai Zhuojia is one of the 380 March 8th Red Flag Bearers in the country, so she has become more and more like a small leader. She is also very particular about the details of her life. At least in front of people, she is always neat and energetic.
Moreover, it’s not just her own cleanliness, she also requires her subordinates and family members to be clean! It can be said that she has developed a slight mysophobia.
Such a dirty courtyard and an unscrupulous landlord gave her a huge impact.
Thinking about living in such an environment for the next day or two, she nodded stiffly, "Hello, comrade."
“Are you a guest group from Kyoto filming ‘Speed Xia Hua’?” The landlord warmly welcomed them into the house, “We were still thinking about when you would come. The children are very hungry, so we started to eat.
Haven’t you eaten yet? Hurry up and come in and eat together! "
The group of people laughed uncomfortably at the corners of their lips, but carefully avoided the "landmines" and walked toward the house.
This family's house is really well built, with solid materials, red bricks and blue tiles. The windows are inlaid with glass, and the floor of the house is paved with a layer of cement.
It’s just that the owner didn’t like to tidy up so much. He just put everything away, including bottles, pots and pans, piling up the table without any space.
The wrinkled clothes are all over the chairs, and farm tools, hemp ropes, and waste products are also scattered here and there, without any order.
The curtains were half-opened, and the room was dark and tight. The faint smell of poultry manure, the sour smell of sweat, and the smell of mold assaulted everyone's nostrils.
There is no difference at all from all the unsophisticated homes in the countryside! Even worse than some people who love cleanliness.
“Hey, we don’t have anything good to eat at the farm, so you just have to fill your stomachs,” the man said to his wife to get some food. That's what he said, but what they brought was white rice, with a spoonful of braised chicken vermicelli and a spoonful of tomatoes and eggs on top. It looked quite delicious, but Ai Zhuojia was holding the bowl and stared at the thick layer of rice on it. A layer of oil stains, and my heart is broken.
"Eat it? Are you not used to eating rice? We Dongshi people prefer to eat rice. There are many people in our village and there is little land. We are not like the people in central China who eat black flour or corn flour."
This sentence made the audience indignant. Isn't it a show off? At a time when most people across the country are not eating whole grains, meat and eggs, this landlord serves his guests with crystal clear rice topped with a rich and fragrant sauce...
Even though they have just finished eating, they feel hungry again!
Children are also clamoring for meat and scrambled eggs with tomatoes. Every household was in a commotion.
Ai Zhuojia closed her eyes and took the lead, taking chopsticks and taking big gulps of rice into her mouth.
too delicious!
How long has it been since she ate so much chicken and eggs?
The wide vermicelli skin soaks up the soup and makes it springy.
Drink another bowl of mung bean soup sprinkled with sugar, and your life will be complete.
“Oh, I forgot, this is your mission card.” After wiping the oil on his mouth, the man took out the crumpled mission card from his clothes and handed it over.
It has new oil stains on it.
Ai Zhuojia winked at her man, who smiled and stepped forward to take it and open it.
The family gathered around to watch. The task was related to the local people’s food.
They need to learn from the landlord to cook a table of farm food, and then invite some lonely old people in the village to taste it. As long as the other party nods, the task will be passed.
Other guest groups also arrived at the place where they would stay tonight. Most of them were thatched houses, with a large kang occupying half of the house and thin mats spread on top.
The guys were particularly enthusiastic about the awards and did not spend too much time being picky about where to live. After filling their stomachs, they all split up in two groups. One side went to ask the lonely old people what they liked to eat, and the other side started to talk to the landlord about the most basic things. Start learning staple food.
They have all eaten the food cooked by the boss, and it has to be said that the program crew was very attentive and almost selected the twelve families in the village who cook the most authentic food.
The task is not difficult, but it takes a lot of effort to make authentic Dongshi dishes that lonely elderly people like to eat.
At a time when the other guest groups were studying enthusiastically and had already figured out some skills, An Zhixia and the others got the task card.
They also did some research, made a menu, and then asked the landlord for advice.
By the time they finished cooking, it was already eleven o'clock in the evening!
Everyone is so busy that they are hungry again.
The landlord and his wife tasted each one and nodded: "Yes, it tastes like our local food."
The viewers in front of the TV also learned several authentic Dongshi farm dishes.
The Fang family came to the show with a playful attitude. The next day, when other guest groups were already busy, they lazily got up to exercise.
Feeling full of energy, they went to the kitchen to work together tacitly after dinner.
The hard dish they make is goose stewed in an iron pot. All the parts of the goose are there. The big pot is enough for a table of people. The texture of the goose meat is different from that of chicken and pork. It is chewy and extremely delicious. This is a dish that everyone in Shangdong City loves to eat in summer.
Considering that some lonely old people had bad teeth, they picked out a third of the stewed goose meat and stewed it with potatoes, then cut it into small pieces with scissors and used it to pour rice into soup.
A dish of stewed eggplant and potatoes with some chopped green peppers. This meal won over the whole family who were raised by An Zhiqiu to have a tricky taste last night.
The ingredients are simple and the taste is pure. Three kinds of vegetables that northerners like are mixed together, and you will never get tired of eating it.
The melon stewed with beans and pork belly is still a stew. This melon is particularly delicious and has a sweet texture. It is one of the best companions for stews.
Let's pat the cucumbers in a plate. Put chili oil, minced garlic and crushed peanuts on the water cucumbers.
Last night, six of them ate a bowl of it raw...
One pot of celery and meat dumplings, one pot of cornstarch!
They made a lot of it and kept a portion for themselves before letting the program crew bring it to others to taste.
Well, it was said that they were making a menu, but in fact they were re-cooking the meal that the landlord left for them last night.
There are a lot of farm dishes in Dongshi, but in summer there are only so many that everyone likes to eat.
Cooking the taste of Dongshi with simple ingredients is definitely not something they can do just by copying the landlord’s steps.
You must know that the right amount of a condiment is very magical!
In the first round of tasting, only five families passed the test, and four of the remaining seven teams directly chose penalty time.
Ai Zhuojia got the mission card with the first place advantage as expected, and began to take her family around the village to look for clues about the next mission location.
The second place was the train driver's family, the third place was the "Future" boy group, the fourth place was the steelworker's family, and An Zhixia and the others were the fifth guest group to get the task card because they got up late. There is a difference of forty minutes!
