Chapter 28
byLin Yan set up the tandoor as soon as he got home, and then started to process the pork belly, tenderloin and plum pork.
It was too hot to eat barbecue in such a hot day, Lin Yan thought for a while, and planned to try the raw marinated shrimp with mustard that he had always wanted to make.
Select fresh prawns, remove the shrimp lines and wash them, then add wine and soak them for ten minutes to kill bacteria.
He used the altar of Xifeng bought by Zhang Moyuan. Lin Yan and Zhang Moyuan didn't drink much, although Father Lin and the others drank, but no one was willing to drink his altar, so they kept it until now.
The alcohol content is much higher than ordinary wine, which is just used for sterilization.
After ten minutes, pour out the white wine and clean it up, add onion, ginger, garlic, mustard, coriander and lemon slices, add the raw marinade that Lin Yan made in advance, and finally use the one with a lid that he customized at Boss Jiang's placePack in thin porcelain jars and refrigerate in ice cream.
This process takes about two hours, so after Lin Yan finished, he went to lie down in the shade of the yard for a while.
When Zhang Moyuan and the others came back at night, it was almost time.
Aunt Lin and Aunt Lin followed Lin Yan to watch every day. They had watched the barbecue a long time ago, so they made the barbecue tonight.
Hai Bei and Haike ran to the ice mirror from time to time while eating, and then came back to look at Lin Yan eagerly.
"Uncle, can I eat shrimp?"
"Xiao Su, shrimp, shrimp."
Others knew at a glance that Lin Yan must have been tinkering with delicious food again.
Brother Linsan was the first one who couldn't sit still, he jumped to the side of the ice mirror, and said anxiously: "Little brother, what are you doing again, let the third brother take a look."
Anyway, the time was almost up, Lin Yan said, "Just take out the white porcelain jar inside, third brother."
Brother Linsan immediately took the jar as he said.
After opening it, there was a scent of lemon and the spicy taste of mustard. These two things were familiar to the Lin family, but the smell in this jar was obviously something they had never tasted before.
Brother Linsan held the chopsticks and stared at Lin Yan with bright eyes, waiting for Lin Yan to be the first to put down the chopsticks as soon as he gave an order.
Lin Yan took a large bowl from the cupboard and poured the raw marinated shrimp in the porcelain jar into it.
The taste became stronger, and Brother Linsan couldn't help swallowing.
Father Lin next to Lin Yan took a closer look, and asked in confusion, "Yan'er, is this a shrimp?"
"yes."
Mrs. Lin also saw it clearly, "Shouldn't the shrimp be red?"
Everyone knows that boiled shrimp is red, but the bowl in front of us is the original color of shrimp.
"Raw shrimp?"
It was Zhang Moyuan who asked.
Lin Yan smiled at him, "It's raw. It's called raw marinated shrimp with mustard. I read the recipe from a book."
Brother Lin stepped back a little, "The raw shrimp is terrible, I have eaten it before."
Everyone was still talking around, and Hai Shell had already squeezed his small body, trying to sneak a bite before everyone was paying attention.
After all, every time my uncle cooks something delicious, either he can only eat one or two bites, or he won't have his share at all.
Fortunately, Mrs. Lin's eyesight was quick to hold him down.
In terms of food, Hai Bei, like Hai Shell, believes in his uncle unconditionally, so he tasted it first.
Lin Yan smiled and said, "Just taste Hai Bei, I added wine when I made it."
Although it had been rinsed clean, Lin Yan was still a little worried that eating it would be bad for children, not to mention that it was still raw.
Hai Bei originally wanted to stuff a whole shrimp into his mouth, but now he couldn't bear it when his uncle said that, so he just stuck out his tongue and licked it, then put it on the plate in front of him.
"delicious."
Brother Linsan also made a move, no matter if the raw shrimp tastes good or not, Lin Yan's cooking is definitely different.
He is also superstitious about Lin Yan's craftsmanship.
In fact, everyone is similar, so everyone came to one next.
Lin Yan wanted to eat too, but he thought he was going to throw up, so he hesitated for a while and still didn't move his chopsticks.
"It's so fresh!"
Brother Linsan's eyes lit up. After eating three of them in a row, he found himself on the verge of being overwhelmed and couldn't stop at all.
Father Lin and the others are similar, the delicious and smooth taste can only be described in one word.
Lin Yan silently swallowed his saliva, just by looking at it, he knew that he made it very successfully, the shrimp meat was bouncy when held on the chopsticks, it must be very tender and smooth after eating.
It's just that Lin Yan cooked too little, and after one person ate two or three, they disappeared.
Brother Lin completely lost the intention of retreating just now, his eyes were full of longing, "Yan'er, don't you have any shrimp at home? Brother, go catch some tomorrow."
Lin Yan shook his head, "Also, it's just that the shrimp is raw after all, and if you eat too much, you'll get diarrhea."
Although the Lin family ate cold oysters that were not hot water several times, Lin Yan was still not at ease, fearing that they would have diarrhea.
Hai Bei ate the shrimp on the plate in small mouthfuls, and then showed the same expression as his father.
"delicious."
Hai Ke yelled twice, but got angry because he didn't eat anything.
It was Lin Yan who coaxed him, "Come on Haike, my uncle will roast pork belly for you."
Hai Ke lay on his back in aggrieved manner, ran away after a while, moved a small stool by himself, and stuck it tightly beside Lin Yan, and no one would pull it away.
Seeing his greedy appearance, Lin Yan specially grilled some fish and shrimp for him, added some simple seasoning to them, and then fed him.
Aunt Lin laughed beside her, "Yan'er looks good with the child, it will be convenient when you give birth."
A shrimp caught on Lin Yan's chopsticks fell into the bowl with a clatter.
Hai Ke stretched his hand in and grabbed it out.
Zhang Moyuan lowered his head to hide the smile in his eyes.
He knew that Lin Yan was embarrassed.
Then the whole family's topic changed, Lin Apa glanced at Lin Yan's stomach, and his tone was full of expectation, "If Yan'er is pregnant now, the child will be able to play with Hai Bei and Haike after the baby is born."
Mrs. Lin nodded, "Yes, Hai Bei can also help take care of my younger brother."
Hai Bei has a serious face, obviously thinking about this issue seriously.
Lin Yan couldn't laugh or cry, he hadn't written his horoscope yet, and whoever took care of the children had already planned for him.
And even though he is a brother now, he still feels that he is an ordinary man psychologically, and he feels weird when he thinks of having a child.
Where did the child come from?
Zhang Moyuan didn't speak much, and only answered a few words when Father Lin and the others asked him.
But as long as it involves matters related to him, he can firmly control the scene, and everyone will be taken away by him unconsciously.
So, soon the conversation in the room turned to what kind of fields to plant in the future, and no one talked about Lin Yan's pregnancy anymore.
Lin Yan secretly smiled at him.
Before leaving the next day, Lin Yan made a large jar of raw marinated shrimp with mustard and put it in the ice mirror. After selling the oysters for so many days, it was time to add some new things.
After everything was ready, Lin Yan glanced outside and asked doubtfully, "Why hasn't Sister Wang come yet?"
Both Wang Xiu and her husband are diligent, as long as they make an appointment with Lin Yan to deliver pork, they will not be late.
Sometimes they came too early, before the Lin family even got up, so Lin Yan put an ice cream in the yard, and they put the meat in the ice glass when they came early.
Father Lin opened the ice mirror and took a look to make sure it was empty, "Don't you encounter something?"
As soon as the words fell, Wang Xiu's voice came from outside the yard.
"Brother Yan, you didn't leave, did you?"
Father Lin responded, "I'm not leaving, Xiu come in quickly."
Wang Xiu pushed the door open while wiping his sweat and came in. When he saw them, he showed apologetic expression, "Uncle Lin, sister-in-law, brother Yan, I'm really sorry, I have something to delay today."
Mrs. Lin poured her a glass of lemonade and comforted her: "It's okay, it doesn't matter if we go later."
They are selling faster and faster now, and sometimes they are all sold out by noon, so it is not a big problem to go early and go late.
Wang Xiu took the lemonade, raised her head and drank it all, her fair face was flushed red from the heat.
After drinking a glass of water, Wang Xiu calmed down a lot. She took out the pork and offered to help Lin Yan put it in the ice cream.
"Brother Yan, I brought ten catties extra for everything today, you..."
Wang Xiu seemed a little embarrassed, she kept her head down and didn't say anything behind her.
Lin Yan thought she wanted to earn more money, so he said, "It's okay, just give it to me, I want it all. Daddy, give Sister Wang some money."
Anyway, now that there is Bingjian, it doesn't matter if there is more meat.
Father Lin was about to go back to the house when Wang Xiu stopped him.
"No, I gave this to Brother Yan, no money is required."
Lin Yan was stunned for a moment, "Sister Wang, did something happen to you?"
Thirty catties of meat, this is not a small amount of money. Although Wang Xiu is not a fussy person, she will not be so generous.
Wang Xiu's face suddenly turned redder than before. She hesitated for a while, then took a deep breath, and said, "Uncle Lin, sister-in-law, brother Yan, I came so late today because of Fan from our village.Grandpa died, we all went over to help."
Lin Yan knew that she hadn't finished speaking, so he didn't speak, and listened to her quietly.
"Grandpa Fan lived alone after his wife died. His son was not filial. This time he died and he didn't come back to see him."
Wang Xiu was silent for a while, and continued: "Grandpa Fan often comes to help us on weekdays. Yesterday I said to send him some ice cubes, but I forgot. When my man went to deliver them today, he found that he haddied."
"It's hot to death."
Lin Yan showed a sad expression. He knew a long time ago that an old man living alone in such a hot day is the saddest.
Wang Xiu raised her face, her eyes were bloodshot, Lin Yan could see that she was blaming herself.
"Sister, don't blame yourself too much, no one would have thought of such a thing."
Wang Xiu wiped her eyes, and said in a low voice, "I thought it's just the beginning of summer, so if we wait a little longer, it would be good to spend less."
Wang Xiu is used to thrift. Her original plan was to buy some ice cubes for Grandpa Fan and her parents-in-law.
Then suddenly this happened.
"Brother Yan, I want to buy some oysters from you, ten copies, do you think it's okay?"
She knew before that Lin Yan sold cold oysters and gave them ice cubes, but it was for regular customers who often bought Lin Yan's seafood, and she could just buy it herself, the key is...
Lin Yan glanced at Father Lin, Father Lin immediately turned around and walked into the house, and Sister Lin followed him.
The two quickly moved a big ice cream out of the house.
"Xiu, don't buy oysters, take these ice back, and share with your parents-in-law."
Wang Xiu waved her hands again and again, "No way, how can I take so much?"
"It's okay, you take it."
Wang Xiu twisted the hem of her clothes and said unnaturally: "Actually, there is one more thing."
Lin Yan probably guessed something, and said, "Sister, just tell me, there are no outsiders here."
Father Lin also said: "Yes, what's the matter?"
"That's... can we let people from Wangu Village come to your place to buy cold oysters? We can pay more."
Lin Yan smiled, "Of course, you don't need to pay more, it's the same price as Xishou Street."
Wang Xiu was stunned for a moment, as if she hadn't expected Lin Yan to be so eloquent, after all, she knew the price of the ice cubes very well.
"Brother Yan, won't you lose money like this?"
"It's okay, don't worry."
Although saltpeter doesn't cost money, but Lin's second brother Linsan went to Yinzhou before, and the meals and accommodation along the way were all costs. If he goes again in the future, it will definitely cost more. Adding in the money for oysters, Lin Yan is just not worth it.Just lose money.
However, Lin Yan didn't intend to make money at the ice cube.
Others can earn enough.
After the matter was settled, Wang Xiu left with a grateful face.
Lin Yan and Lin Adie, Aunt Lin, went to town.
Their small trolley has been moved to the back of Boss Ma's shop. After all, the sun is too strong now, and it is unbearable to stay in the sun for a long time.
Fortunately, Lin Yan's small stroller is well-known now, even if he finds a corner, he won't worry about selling it.
Father Lin was in charge of the barbecue, Mrs. Lin was in charge of the cold oysters, and Lin Yan counted the time and took the raw marinated shrimp out of the ice cream.
Boss Ma was sitting at the door of the shop chatting with the customers in the trolley, but now he saw the jar in Lin Yan's hand and ran over immediately.
"Brother Yan is cooking something delicious again, let me see."
Lin Yan opened the porcelain jar, and carefully poured the raw marinated shrimp into the large basin next to it.
Now not only Boss Ma is in a hurry, but also the guests around him are in a hurry.
Although don't know what it is, can tell it's very cool just by looking at the cold air.
"Brother Yan, has this been chilled too?"
Lin Yan nodded and introduced: "This is a new dish I made. The name is mustard raw marinated shrimp. The shrimp in it is raw. As usual, you should try it first before buying, but don't buy too much. You can buy it when you can adapt to it next time.".”
Someone laughed, "It's the first time I've heard the shopkeeper advise customers to buy less."
It's okay if Lin Yan doesn't say anything, but when he says to buy less, everyone wants to buy more.
Lin Yan said helplessly: "I'm not joking with you, the shrimp inside is raw, I'm afraid your stomach won't be able to adapt to it."
"What's the matter, I don't eat raw oysters every day."
Lin Yan simply picked one up for him, "You try it first."
After eating raw oysters, the guests have completely changed the impression that raw seafood is fishy and unpalatable. Anyway, as long as it is paired with Yan Geer's sauce, everything will be delicious.
So the guest ate the shrimp without hesitation.
After he finished eating, his face was serious for a moment. Boss Ma stared at his face closely and asked nervously, "How?"
But the man just chewed, did not speak for a long time, and his face continued to be dignified.
Even Lin Yan panicked, he tried his best to recall what he did, it was no problem, it was the same as last night.
Could it be that Father Lin and the others lied to him when they said it was delicious?
Just when Lin Yan began to regret that he hadn't tasted one, the man suddenly stretched out his hand, picked up a spoon and quickly dug three big spoons into his bowl, filling his own bowl in an instant.
Lin Yan's eyes widened. This must be too much. He just said to buy less.
Boss Ma immediately came to his senses, and went over to grab the bowl, "You old hozen, you have a lot of heart."
The other guests had something they didn't understand, and rushed over one after another, "Save some for me."
"I only need a spoon, half a spoon, at least leave one for me."
A large pot of raw pickled shrimp was divided up in no time, and Lin Yan didn't even realize it.
He couldn't laugh or cry, "I really can't eat too much, the shrimp is raw, you..."
Everyone looked at him while eating.
Boss Ma also intimately echoed, "I know."
Then after agreeing, he bowed his head and took a big bite, and excitedly shared the joy of eating delicious food with those guests who didn't grab it.
Other guests: "..."
Lin Yan: "..."
He was still not at ease, and added, "If you feel uncomfortable in your stomach, remember to go to the doctor's office in time."
In order to prevent everyone from misunderstood that he has no confidence in his craft, Lin Yan also carefully educated the big guys on the risks of raw pickling.
However, seeing those customers who ate a lot, their faces were rosy and shiny, and they were gearing up to grab tomorrow's raw marinated shrimp, Lin Yan felt relieved for the time being.
Father Lin was afraid that his words would scare the guests, so he hurriedly said: "It's not that scary, our whole family ate it last night, and there was nothing wrong with it."
Sister Lin also said: "Yes, the big guys are all suffering, and they are in good health. Brother Yan, don't worry."
The other guests who didn't grab it regretted it even more after hearing it. Why was their hand speed slow at that time.
Lin Yan, who bought the raw marinated shrimp, sent a serving of ice cubes, which were the same as the oysters.
After the customer had bought almost everything, Boss Ma pulled Lin Yan suddenly, and then quietly took out a bag of silver from his pocket and handed it to Lin Yan.
Lin Yan was stunned for a moment, "This is?"
"Carpenter Tang asked me to give it to you. Your ice mirror is sold out. Everyone in Xishou Street has one. Even people from Wangu Village and Yanxin Village came to buy it."
Lin Yan nodded, the weather is so hot, it is reasonable for Bingjian to sell well.
Boss Ma handed him the money, and said in a low voice, "Save some raw pickled shrimp for tomorrow."
Lin Yan: "..."
Because of the matter of Bingjian, Boss Ma is also an intermediary. In order to express his gratitude, Lin Yan specially added a lot of ice cubes to him.
Boss Ma was so happy that Lin Yan gave him several more lemons when he went to buy them.
Because of Lin Yan's relationship, lemons, which were so sour in the past and no one cared about them, have become a hot commodity. Many people buy them back and squeeze lemon juice to eat with seafood.
Closing up the stall was still very early today, and everything was sold out just after noon.
Before going back, Lin Yan went to Jiang's Kiln, and brought back the barbecue stove and fruit tea cups he ordered earlier.
Then you can add fruit tea to the menu.
