NOVEL NEXT Chapter 54 Braised Lamb Leg
Inside Liuxiang Snacks, Lou Laner was telling stories to the diners when Master Miyuan and Su Xuexue came to the store.
As soon as they sat down, Mi Yuan asked Ma Xi: "Girl Ma, do you still have the wine that Nalan Jue brought from you?"
"There's some more, I'll pour you a pot."
Su Xuexue: "Are there any new dishes recently that would go well with your wine?"
Although the wine is made, there is no Western food in the store.
Mao Xi had an idea and thought of the leg of lamb that Mu Zhiyuan had given him before.
"Su Xuexue, I'm about to make a new dish, please help me judge it."
There was still some red wine left, so Ma Xi opened the virtual mall, bought the spices for making Western food, and started making "Braised Lamb Leg" to try everyone's taste.
She washed and pierced the lamb leg, sprinkled it with pepper and salt, kneaded it lightly, fried it until slightly brown, diced the garlic, carrots, tomatoes, and onions into the oil pan and stir-fried them as side dishes, then boiled the water, added the lamb leg, and added Add spices (rosemary, bay leaves, celery leaves, thyme), salt, and finally red wine, and bake in the kiln for an hour.
Mi Yuan and Su Ziguan stood at the edge of the kiln, smelling the aroma of the spices: "Girl, your spices are rare, but are they supplied from the Western Regions?"
Mao Xi smiled mysteriously: "Student, master, this is my exclusive formula!"
The two of them sat down in the elegant room of the inner room, and first ordered sugar glutinous rice cakes and a portion of the Poxia rabbit meat hot pot, paired with wine, and chatted happily.
At Shen Shi, Zhang Xiucai and Wang Xiucai came to Liuxiang Snacks together.
"Brother Zhang, let me be the host of the dinner today, don't refuse!"
Lou Lan'er's story was so exciting that Wang Xiucai sighed.
"Brother Wang, why are you lamenting!"
"I wonder how Miss Cadie is doing now?"
"Wang Xiucai couldn't be happier with her. I heard Lou Lan'er talk about this case. Cai Die and his father were exiled to the South Island."
Wang Xiucai took a sip of the wine in his cup and said, "No, I just pity her! When I gave her a sugar cake, I only had compassion for her. I never thought..."
"I never thought that she would secretly love you and save your life!" Zhang Xiucai took Wang Xiucai's words and said, "In that case, what are your plans next?"
"Go back to your hometown to study and wait for the next imperial examination."
"Alas..." Zhang Xiucai also sighed and took a sip of wine, "I'm afraid I won't be able to take the imperial examination!"
"Brother Zhang, what do you mean by this?" Wang Xiucai asked in confusion.
"I come from a poor family. I failed the exam this time. My future is at a loss. I don't know whether to stay here and find a living or go back to my hometown and continue studying."
"Brother Zhang, in my opinion, you can find a job and study at the same time."
Su Ziguan listened to the conversation between the two scholars, came to the outer room, and sat next to Zhang Xiucai: "Scholar, just take care of yourself now that you are here. Instead of being confused, it is better to find something to do first."
Mao Xi came to Zhang Xiucai and said: "Zhang Xiucai, how about you come to my store and help register the diners' list and keep accounts. The store is also tight on manpower now, how about it?"
Zhang Qingyan stood up and saluted hurriedly: "Xiaosheng, thank you Miss Mianxi!"
"Then it's settled, you guys chat, I'll cook!" Mao Xi came to the kiln, turned the lamb leg over, and put it in for a second bake.
At this time, Lou Laner was talking about something exciting, and the diners in the store clapped their hands and applauded.
Su Xuexue continued: "Zhang Xiucai, if you have any confusion about learning in the future, you can come to my Songjian Academy and discuss it with me. The road to life is not just the imperial examination. You see, I am in Lihua Town, and I am planting my own seeds. I feel comfortable eating food."
"Thank you for learning. I will remember your teachings."
Wang Xiucai remembered the inn where he lived before. Due to the case of the fox demon scholar, no one dared to stay in the west building: "Zhang Xiucai, I will leave here tomorrow. The shopkeeper of the west building of the inn where I stayed has lowered the price. Tomorrow you can Can be moved in.”
Zhang Qingyan nodded and thanked everyone.
"The braised leg of lamb is ready, come and try it." Mao Xi took out the braised leg of lamb from the kiln.
There is lamb leg on the plate, the soup is thick and the color is attractive.
Xuexue Su couldn't wait to take a bite: "Young girl, this dish of yours is soft and not greasy. It is not inferior to the braised pork I made. There is still the aroma of the wine in the meat."
Master Mi Yuan could not put down the wine in the glass. He stared at the red wine juice and asked: "Little girl, does this wine have a name?"
"Cabernet Sauvignon, Master has already chosen a name for this wine!"
Mi Yuan touched his long beard: "Cabernet Sauvignon, what a good name, hahaha!"
When the diners in the store heard Mi Yuan talking about Cabernet Sauvignon, they all asked for wine from Shu Xi.
"Shopkeeper, I want Cabernet Sauvignon too!"
"What kind of wine is Cabernet Sauvignon? I've never tasted it. Let me have a bottle!"
Mao Xi hurriedly reassured: "Everyone, wait a minute, the Cabernet Sauvignon is gone now. In a few weeks, by the Mid-Autumn Festival, it will be available!"
All the grapes stored in the space were eaten. Early the next morning, Mao Xi and Mu Zhiyuan went up the mountain again to pick grapes in Savage Valley.
When we arrived at Biyoudongtian, we didn’t see any giant pandas.
"Maybe it went to look for food." Mu Zhiyuan looked around, feeling a little quiet.
The little spirit rat climbed up from Mao Xi's shoulder to the rock wall and ate the grapes by himself.
After a few days, the grapes grew a lot, and the two began to pick grapes.
Several snoring sounds came from the cave, and Mu Zhiyuan followed the sound and looked up.
At the top of the tree canopy, the panda was sleeping soundly in a tree yoke. A round flesh ball was stuck in it, and you couldn't see it unless you looked carefully.
"Mu Xi, listen, it's the panda's snoring, it's over there!"
"It's really a panda, he climbed so high!" Shu Xi exclaimed, waking up the panda.
It stretched out in the tree, moved its body to the trunk, swung its butt left and right, climbed down from the trunk, and ran to Mu Zhiyuan.
"Brother Mu, it seems to be very close to you! Can you give it a name?"
"Mo Xi, come and get it!"
"Round and round?"
The panda twisted his neck, seemingly unhappy with the name.
"Huahua?"
"Uh-huh--" The panda turned his head and started to be clingy again.
"Then let's call you Huahua."
After loading the grapes and placing them in the space, Mao Xi opened the virtual mall and displayed:
*** L8 ***＜Upgrading＞
It’s time to start brewing red wine and make some new Western food and desserts!
