Lisko’s American Life

180. Guilin rice noodles (thanks to Lan Shiyu for the reward)

"Really? Then I'll definitely try it." Lisko started drooling, and made a gesture of picking up a tissue to wipe his mouth.

Downstairs in his previous life, there were three common shops, the three national brands, "Guilin rice noodles, Shaxian snacks, and Lanzhou ramen."

When he was at work, he was so shy in his pocket that he settled for his dinner in these three high-quality and cheap shops all year round.

Zhang Li is from Guilin, Guangxi, so Guangxi cuisine is also her specialty, but because of limited ingredients, she can only make rice noodles.

She has been working with her mother since she was a child. After entering the kitchen, she listened to the chef briefly teach how to operate the kitchen utensils, and she quickly started to make them proficiently.

Zhang's mother was afraid that Zhang Li would not be satisfied with the taste in the far away America, so she stuffed a lot of bagged rice noodles locally produced in Guangxi in Zhang Li's suitcase. The packaging method was similar to instant noodles. Bag.

When Zhang Li came from Denver, he packed two packs, thinking that Lisko might not have eaten it before, so let him try it.

Soaked in water, the rice noodles softened quickly.

There are beef bones cut from the pasture in the refrigerator. She set up another pot, put the beef bones in the pot under cold water, boiled them, and took them out to wash off the foam.

Around Garrison, cattle bones are sold to artisans for hot-coloured bone carvings.

But this is not the case in the Lisko Ranch. He can’t see such good ingredients being used for other things. He often arranges for David to shave the best bones from the cow and put them in his refrigerator. Sometimes he cooks the soup himself. Drink it, add white radish, nourish Qi and stomach.

Zhang Li picked up the beef bones, changed the pot of water again, and started to boil. This time will take a little longer. According to the method, the longer the bone soup is boiled, the more nutritious it will be.

Li Ke folded his hands and stood at the door watching Zhang Li busy. He really felt a sense of happiness after marriage. He was watching while his wife was cooking for the family in the kitchen.

"What are you looking at?" Zhang Li walked in front of Lisko with her hands behind her back. She put on the spare apron, but it didn't change her beauty, and she even had the temperament of a good wife at home.

"I see you are so virtuous, whoever marries you is really very happy." Lisko smiled and wiped off the sweat on Zhang Li's forehead due to busyness with his own hands.

"Hahaha," Zhang Li talked about this, but she was not too shy. This is also the difference between her and other girls, she is generous.

"How long will this soup be cooked?" Lisko tilted his head, smelling the aroma of the beef bone soup that had been wafting out.

"It will take about two hours. Due to material limitations, the best soup base for rice noodles is brine and char siew. Unfortunately, there are not enough ingredients here. If you want to eat other Guangxi delicacies, we will go shopping in Chinatown tomorrow and buy Some ingredients, our Guangxi cuisine is not limited to this, such as folded shredded taro, Wuzhou paper-wrapped chicken, roast suckling pig, I know all of them."

Zhang Li's expression was full of pride.

"Are you still so good at cooking?" Lisko was surprised, it didn't look like Zhang Li could cook a lot.

"My grandma used to be a banquet master in the country. I lived with my grandma when I was a child, so I was often taken by her to cook for others. After hearing about it, I will naturally become a little bit."

Zhang Li's face was full of memories, his childhood life was very good, because grandma was a master cook, so she did not eat less of the banquet dishes, the food was very good.

"How is grandma doing now?"

"Grandma passed away when I was a sophomore in high school,"

"Ah?" Lisko complained a little to himself, which pot was not opened and which pot was lifted. Looking at Zhang Li's expression, he knew that grandma had a deep relationship with her, and he even exposed his scars.

"sorry, I do not know,"

Lisko quickly apologized.

"It's okay, it's been many years, and we've passed that sad time," Zhang Li didn't care. Birth, old age, sickness and death are something everyone has to face. Fortunately, grandma didn't die because of illness, it was natural She left in her sleep, she was still very open.

"Grandma will be very relieved to see that you are so good now." Lisko comforted her.

The sound of beef bone soup interrupted the conversation between the two, Zhang Li quickly returned to his seat, turned the pot, and strong steam rose.

Zhang Li looked down and saw that the bone broth had been boiled and turned white. She filled it with a small spoon and tasted it, but it felt a bit bland.

Add some seasoning, close the lid and continue to cook, turn the heat to low.

Lisko washed his hands and came over to help. Just eating rice noodles is not enough. He took a knife from a shelf beside him.

On the shelf at the side of the kitchen, there is a ham, which is specially purchased by Chef Sins. It is the most expensive ham in the world, Spanish Iberian ham.

The weight of this ham is about seven kilograms, but the price is not low. The price of the ham is two thousand pounds, totaling 30,000 RMB.

This ham is made from naturally free-range black Iberian pigs. The black pigs are fed a daily diet of acorns rich in oleic acid, which reduces the fat content of the meat and gives it a better taste. During the production process, this top-quality ham is only marinated with high-grade sea salt, without using any artificial additives and chemical ingredients, which is very healthy. In addition, the ham has to be stored in the cellar for two years to dry naturally.

Moreover, it was very difficult to buy. It was sold out as soon as it was listed. The one in Lisko's house was repurchased from a friend by Xin Si relying on his previous contacts.

When ordinary chefs cut this, they are very careful, cutting it as thin as a cicada's wing, Lisko can't control that much, no matter how expensive the food is in his eyes, he directly cuts a large piece, cuts About the thickness of a domestic sausage.

A plate was filled and brought to the table.

Zhang Li here is also ready. She puts the rice noodles into a large bowl. Inside the milky white bone soup is white rice noodles, and sprinkled with coriander, peanuts, sour bamboo shoots and sour beans on top. There is also the stewed beef that Xin Si made according to Lisko's arrangement earlier, which is the ingredient that Lisko used to make appetizers.

"It's very fragrant." Lisko sat down, and the tangy fragrance attracted his taste buds.

"Okay, you can eat."

Zhang Li came over with two glasses of orange juice and drank red wine in the morning, so she didn't want to get drunk in the evening.

"To our hardworking chef." Lisko took the orange juice glass and hung it in the air.

"Okay, thank you for your ham too." Zhang Li smiled like a flower.

After taking a sip of orange juice, Lisko picked up the chopsticks and picked up the rice noodles.

"Um~" After taking a sip of the round rice noodles, Lisko sighed in enjoyment, and before he could speak, he took a bite and chewed, and the sour beans were mixed with round rice noodles and delicious soup. That tastes amazing.

Just put a golden peanut in your mouth, and there will be a crisp "clack" sound when you bite into it. The aroma of peanuts in your mouth and the taste of rice noodles just now are really memorable.

Lisko didn't care about eating the ham he had cut, he ate the whole bowl of rice noodles in one go, and licked his lips with insatiable desire.
