Chapter 88 Delicious fried squid
in the kitchen.

Deng Shirong was teaching his eldest daughter to fry squid. He said as he was doing it: "Fried squid requires more heat than fried peanuts. If it is slightly overcooked, the texture of the squid will become hard and taste bitter. But if the heat is not enough, the squid will taste bitter. There’s no way to activate the sweet flavor that comes with squid.”

At this point, Deng Shirong felt that the oil was almost warm, so he picked up a drained squid and put it into the oil pan.

As soon as the squid encounters high temperatures, it will be rolled up immediately.

Deng Shirong used a spatula to hold the squid while he said: "When this squid is put in for frying, it will roll up immediately. At this time, you need to use a spatula or other tools to hold it and not roll it up, otherwise it will just One side can be fried, but the rolled side cannot be fried, and it will be heated unevenly, so the taste will naturally not be that good.”

Deng Yunzhen watched her father's operation intently. After her father fixed the squid, he fried it for a few seconds. The side he saw had been fried to a golden brown, so he flipped it to the other side and fried it for a few more seconds until both sides were fried. When it was fried to golden brown, I picked it up with chopsticks and put it into a clean bowl next to it.

"Just fry the squid to this color!"

After Deng Shirong finished speaking, he repeated the previous actions and fried three of the squids very easily. When there was still the last squid left, he handed the spatula to his eldest daughter and said, "A-Zhen, I'll let you do the last one." Give it a try.”

After Deng Yunzhen's father's cooking training during this period, her understanding of cooking has changed dramatically.

Therefore, she was not afraid of the stage. She took the spatula and said, "Okay, then I'll give it a try."

Next, Deng Yunzhen repeated his father's previous actions. Although the operation was not as easy as his father's, the control of the heat was still in place. The color of the fried squid was not much different from that fried by his father.

Seeing this, Deng Shirong said approvingly: "The frying is good. From now on, you will fry the squid in this way. Use something else to hold the remaining oil in the pot. I will tear the squid into pieces while it is still hot."

"Oh, I see!"

……

2 minute later.

Deng Shirong tore all four squids into squid strips about the same size as pen refills, and then said to his children who were watching curiously: "Okay, it's time to eat. It's quite sweet to eat it just like this. If you eat it with a little salt, It will be sweeter.

Of course, you can eat it with soy sauce or vinegar, but unfortunately there is no mustard. If you eat it with mustard, the taste is really amazing! "

Deng Yuntai picked up one with chopsticks, dipped it in some salt, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly. The more he chewed, the more delicious it became. He couldn't help but praise: "The taste is so amazing. No wonder Dad said this is one of the best dishes to go with wine." , this squid paired with wine is really no worse than fried bee pupae!”

Deng Shirong said with a smile: "The taste of fried squid is no worse than that of fried bee pupae, but the advantage of fried bee pupae is that you can never get tired of eating them. Fried squid will be delicious if you eat it once in a while, but if you eat it often, the taste will gradually deteriorate. It’s not as amazing as it was at the beginning.”

Deng Yunzhen also fell in love with this dish at the first time. She commented: "The fried squid tastes really good. There is a sweetness in the aroma. After eating one, you still want to eat the second one. It's a pity that Just like Dad said, if you eat too much of this stuff, you will easily get angry."

Deng Yunzhu swallowed the squid in her mouth and said: "This thing is more delicious than many snacks. As for getting angry, isn't it very simple? Just drink some Danzhu water!"

For most southerners, getting angry is really something that is both annoying and unavoidable. Not to mention eating fried dough sticks, fried squid, fried peanuts and other foods that are very easy to get angry, just eating Even when I ordered dog meat, chicken, lychees, etc., I accidentally got angry.

Either the teeth are swollen, the tongue is blistered, or the throat is sore. In short, as long as you get angry, you won't be interested in eating dragon meat anymore.On the other hand, northerners eat fried food every day without getting angry. They really have much more freedom in eating than southerners.

The reason is caused by the different climates in the north and south.

Some southerners get angry quickly after eating hot food in their hometown, but after living in the north for a year or two, they can eat whatever they want and don't have to worry about getting angry.

Similarly, after some northerners come to the south and live for a period of time, although their ability to handle heat is better than that of most southerners, they are not as able to eat whatever they want like they did back home because they eat too much heat. They will also get angry if they eat something.

It is precisely because southerners have always been troubled by the problem of getting angry that the famous Guangdong herbal tea was born.

As for the Danzhu water mentioned by Deng Yunzhu, it is the most commonly used means of reducing fire in the rural areas of Bobai County in this era when treating and preventing fire.

Danzhu water, as the name suggests, is the juice flowing out of Danzhu.

Try to pull down a red bamboo tree, then cut off the tail of the bamboo, and fix it with a rope or other tools. After a while, water will slowly flow out from the cut place. This is the so-called red bamboo water. .

The fire-reducing effect of this thing is indeed first-class.

Therefore, when he heard what his youngest daughter said, Deng Shirong nodded and said, "Don't worry, eat. I'll go get the red bamboo water later. When it's midnight, you guys can drink a few sips each, so you don't have to worry about getting angry."

After hearing this, the children no longer scrupled and enjoyed the delicious fried squid.

Deng Shirong and Deng Yuntai, father and son, poured half a bowl of rice wine each and sat in the spacious living room to eat and drink while chatting about their parents' shortcomings. This comfortable life with their children by their side was exactly what Deng Shirong had been pursuing in his previous life.

……

The next day, Deng Shirong stayed at home without going anywhere. He wanted to list the guests that he wanted to invite to his eldest son's wedding today.

In later generations, many newlyweds have a wide network of friends. The biggest headache for them when holding wedding events is to make a guest list. They need to go through the list of people they know several times, for fear of missing any friends. .

Once you miss a friend, it's not just a matter of missing a red envelope, but you're likely to lose that friend.

Because in the eyes of this friend, you invited all your friends to get married, but you only missed him. This proves that his status in your heart is like a passerby. Even if he doesn't fall out with you, his relationship with you is still the same. It will slowly fade away.

After some couples send out the invitations, they don't remember missing a certain friend until the wedding day is approaching. At this time, unless you show the greatest sincerity to make up for it, no matter where the other person lives, go and invite them in person.

Otherwise, if you just make a casual phone call to inform, you will most likely lose this friend.

Therefore, the wedding guest list must be confirmed repeatedly to see if any friends have been missed.
