Chapter 17:

Before dawn, the orcs had already followed Ernst into the mountains to harvest under the arrangement of the patriarch. They were still in awe of what happened before, but the thirst for food in the rainy season prevailed. They wore rattan armor and carried their own largest rattan baskets. Look at the sky. If you change the shape of a beast on the return trip, you can transport it back and forth three or four times a day.
  Li Xia had just finished washing her face when the door of her house was knocked loudly. Needless to say, she knew that it was Morinda and the others. I just said yesterday that I would invite them to dinner. After waiting all night, it is estimated that their little patience is about to be used up. The orc females here have absolutely zero resistance to food.
  When the door was opened, three people were standing at the door. Morinda's round eyes avoided the human-shaped obstacle of Li Xia and looked inward from the gate. The hungry light in her eyes almost materialized; Subi was not to be outdone, besides her eyes, she also used her nose, and the little nose twitched. He sniffed back and forth in the air, and the twist of his head caused the blond strands of blond hair that were always standing and trembling in his hair to swing back and forth. Only the older Pita calmly handed a piece of washed meat. Li Xia helped her forehead, it turns out that these two couples have the habit of giving meat.
  Turning sideways to let a few people in, Morinda rushed into the yard in a hurry, and the ice pot and the cold stove in his eyes didn't mean to cook them well at all. "Lixia! Where's the meal? Where's the meal?" Su Bi also helped, "En, Lixia, why didn't you cook for us?" How anxious are you? Li Xia looked at the two unrepentant people and felt deeply that he was wrong. There should be a set time for inviting guests to dinner. He had just woken up this early in the morning, so how could it be so early to cook.
  Knowing that she can't eat it right away, Morinda crooked and listless under the shed, Subi covered her stomach with both hands and pursed her mouth at Lixia from time to time, her eyes sad. These individuals are considered foodies on earth. The breakfast is also simple, and the materials are readily available. Lixia is not pretentious, and starts work directly. Two clay pots, one steamed with rice, the other boiled seafood and mushroom soup, and the remaining one he planned to make the long-awaited braised pork. Then get a tomato scrambled egg and garlic boji vegetables, live together.
  Lixia is already a skilled worker when it comes to steaming rice, so it goes without saying that you should cook it first and then fish it out. The water of the seafood mushroom soup is already burning on the stove, the key is the braised pork. The meat that Pita brought came in handy. Lixia used a clay pot to put water on the stove, and blanched the uniform meat pieces that had been cut into mahjong pieces with a shell knife in advance. Everyone in the house knows how to cook. When I watched a food show in Lixia before, I heard from the master in the show that cold-water blanching of pork can use the slow change of water temperature to discharge the remaining blood and other dirty things in the meat. If you wait for the water to boil before putting it in the pot, the violent thermal expansion and cold contraction will cause the surface of the meat to shrink violently, which will lock the dirt in the meat and cannot get out. Li Xia fiddled with the pieces of meat in the water every now and then, and from time to time, used a spoon to skim off the scum of impurities that had been gushing out due to the rise in water temperature. Wait until the water boils for a minute or two and the meat turns white, then remove the meat and set aside. After washing the jar and reheating it, Li Xia scooped a tablespoon of meat oil into the jar, and added the cane sugar cubes that had been prepared earlier. , Li Xia saw the opportunity and almost poured the spare pieces of meat into it.

Stir fry with a spoon, then add dried red peppers and ginger slices. The white pieces of meat were rolled in the oil, and the color became bright and oily. After frying for a few times, the excess boiling water in the seafood mushroom soup jar was poured into the braised pork jar.
  Morinda and Subi, two heartless dead children, were drooling while patronizing. Li Xia grabbed a piece of garlic and asked them to peel it, but Pita was older and steadier, and had been assisting Li Xia from the very beginning. Cooking, but just like this, the neat way of cooking rice, shell knives, and Lixia still amazes this female who has lived most of her life. He had never seen such a way of cooking or eaten such a meal, but he couldn't be wrong just by looking at it. Of course, he didn't just come to eat like Morinda and Soapy, but mainly to learn how to cook with Li Xia. Ever since Walter had a meal at Ernst's house, he had been talking about Li Xia cooking in his ear all day. The food is so delicious that his ears are almost getting calluses. Although I don't have the materials yet at home, it's still good to learn first.
  The water in the jar just barely covered the meat, and the Lixia fire brought the water to a boil, then removed some of the firewood, covered it with a rattan lid, and simmered slowly on a low fire. The amount of water in the jar of seafood soup that is evenly drained is just right. Lixia put some sliced ​​ginger and garlic and all kinds of dried scallops in it and cooked together, because the scallops are softened and restored to elasticity. Rice prepares other dishes by the way.
  After washing the boji vegetables, blanch them with hot water and pinch to dry the water, then slightly cut two knives with a shell knife and put them on a plate. When Li Xia turned around to ask Subi Morinda for garlic cloves, she was startled. I saw two living treasures, one with abnormally red eyes and tears pouring out, the other sticking out his tongue and gurgling water.
  It turned out that Li Xia gave them garlic before and then went to work. Although Li Xia gave them garlic cloves as seeds the day before, there was only a little bit of natural treasure and they couldn't be used indiscriminately, but isn't this coming to Li Xia's house for dinner, since this is a thing It's a good idea to try it in advance. Morinda quickly peeled the garlic and put it into his mouth. This eating was incredible. The spicy and unusual taste quickly occupied every corner of the mouth, and with his quick swallowing, he forcibly conquered the virgin land of the throat. Morinda was in a hurry, scratching his cheeks, and rushing to the well to fetch water, trying to dispel the smell. Seeing that Morinda was so unjustly happy, Soubi burst into tears from laughter, but what he didn't know was that his gesture of raising his hand and wiping his eyes was a great mistake, because of the incorrect way of peeling garlic, his Fingers are full of garlic juice. This mistake directly caused his eyes to be hot and painful.   Li Xia pulled one by one to the well and washed their eyes and hands before sighing and cooking again. Soubi and the others still had the garlic they peeled, and Lixia brought it into pieces and put it in a wooden bowl, and handed it to Pita to use a wooden stick to smash it. Lixia washes the tomatoes and mushrooms, peels the tomatoes, peels the stems, cuts the mushrooms into strips, and the shellfish in the jar is already soft. Lixia directly puts the mushroom strips in and cooks together. The rice is already steamed, just to free up a stove. To stir-fry vegetables, Lixia adds oil to a shallow clay pot, pours the salted egg liquid into the pot and stir-fries until cooked. Reheat the remaining oil in the jar, add the tomatoes, add salt and stir fry. Seeing that the egg pieces that were scrambled before are almost poured in, sprinkle with garlic leaves and stir fry for a few times.   Reheat the oil in the clay pot, and Li Xia put the mashed garlic of Bita on the boji vegetables, and it is done when the oil is hot and poured on. The seafood mushroom soup in the jar is almost the same, because the seashells themselves have a salty taste. Before serving, Lixia tasted the taste before adding a little salt and sprinkled with celery. He scooped a bowl of white rice for everyone, and Li Xia instructed the two bear children who were about to lose their jars to serve the vegetables. He turned around to look at the braised pork on the fire, opened the lid, and a strong aroma gushed out from the jar. , Ernst, who had wanted to steal it, stopped, and Suby was even more direct, shouting that it was so fragrant and fragrant. Looking in from the mouth of the can, there was not much of the soup left, so Li Xia put some salt in it and stirred it with a spoon.

  When several people saw Lixia sit down, they started to eat unceremoniously, fragrant white rice, red and yellow tomato scrambled eggs, garlic-flavored cold wave vegetables, seafood mushroom-flavored seafood mushroom soup, and red, bright and soft. The braised pork, which is glutinous and fat but not greasy and thin but not woody, will challenge the taste buds of all of you.
  "I can eat a Banzilong if I'm hungry! Lixia, the food you cook is delicious!" Morinda didn't eat at all, with the oil on his face sticking to his mouth, and the pile of vegetables in his bowl. De Lao Gao didn't forget to reach into the jar to grab the braised pork to eat.
  "This one called Braised Pork is so delicious." Bitta had never eaten such meat before. Before they ate meat, besides roasting it, they threw it directly into the water and boiled it. It was indigestible for females and not delicious. But Li Xia made this one, which is very different. The color is red and attractive, the skin and meat are smooth and fat but not greasy, and the entrance is soft and melts. The meat is streaky and three-layered. After being made, the deliciousness cannot be described in words. What Bitta didn't know was that one of the most eloquent Chinese delicacies, this dish is braised pork.
  "It turns out that bird eggs can still be eaten like this, the more chewy the rice, the more fragrant it is." Subi likes tomato scrambled eggs, but prefers rice. He will be very happy to think that this kind of crops will be eaten often in the future. Of course, if he has the opportunity, he will Will make it for Wagg too. Thinking of this, Soapy couldn't help but look up at Pita. This person is Wagg's mother and father, so he must behave better. Just thinking about it, Su Bi suddenly found that Bita was smiling and turned to look at him, so embarrassed that he immediately lowered his head and pulled the rice, even his face was buried in the bowl.
  After the rice was finished, everyone added a bowl of seafood and mushroom soup to enjoy it slowly. The ocean-flavored soup was light and sweet. Drinking a bowl instantly moisturised the internal organs. Li Xia scooped a spoon of rice soup for himself, and the other three followed suit, and the remaining rice soup was also divided up. Looking at the bare bowls and plates, Li Xia couldn't help but sigh, the fighting power of females is no worse than that of orcs.
  After washing the dishes and washing, several people held their stomachs against the wall to digest food, and Bita explained his intention. After eating a meal, he also learned the benefits of the sea. The forest has Ernst and the others, and only females like them get salt and seafood. Walter had previously explained that he asked him to discuss the collection with Li Xia. The lowest tide in the past few days is probably around 2:00 noon. It won't be long before the rainy season. It's not too late, and Lixia does not shirk, so I decided to go today. Bita also reassured and hurriedly said not to go out to convene people. Under Walter's nagging all day long, he was also afraid that Li Xia would go back on it. Lixia didn't take it to heart, no matter what, he wouldn't regret it even for Ernst's sake.
