Chapter 1007 The Extinct Xiangcheng Pig
After washing, Yuanzhou changed into the Hanfu for work. For today's Hanfu, Yuanzhou chose one that matched his breakfast.
Because this time the Hanfu has needle-shaped horseshoe leaves embroidered under the hem, and the green color matches the white Hanfu, which looks very harmonious.
Of course, the cuffs of the clothes are still embroidered with lotus leaf patterns. After all, they are shop flowers and should be worn at all times.
"Two of these longan steamed buns should be enough to eat." Yuan Zhou took out the soaked Hsinchu steamer from the sink and put it aside to drain.
The steamer this time is much larger than the steamer used for steamed buns. After all, it is the steamer used for steaming steamed buns.
While draining the cage, Yuanzhou was not idle and went to the water tank to look at the crabs provided by the system yesterday.
"Don't worry, I will make you delicious food when I have free time today. Don't come to me at night." Yuan Zhou looked at the crabs in the water tank and said seriously.
After finishing this, Yuanzhou started to prepare steamed buns.
I forgot to mention that this longan steamed bun is a special Han snack in Sichuan Province, and it is also a matching snack included in the system reward.
Making steamed buns naturally starts with butchered meat stuffing, but Yuan Zhou didn't start from this place today, but started with foamed dried shrimps.
Yes, longan buns need to be filled with golden hooks, which are dried shrimps.
This dried shrimp does not need to be soaked too much, just a little soaking is enough, but the water Yuan Zhou used to soak the dried shrimp this time is not different.
Because it was brewed with tea soaked in Yuqian Longjing, Yuanzhou also used Yuqian Longjing soaked three times to prevent the deliciousness of the shrimp meat from being taken away by the tea.
This can remove the fishy smell and add a hint of tea aroma.
Of course, he had made tea before, but Yuan Zhou didn't waste it and drank it directly.
After all, Yuan Zhou is still a very frugal person.
It's just that now, the thrifty person's stomach is a little full.
"Pah!" Yuan Zhou took out two pieces of pork. There was no trace of fascia on the outer layer of the meat. It looked like a whole piece. With a slight cut, you could see the beautifully colored lean meat sandwiched with white fat meat. The skinny meat was much fatter. few.
And when Yuan Zhou cut it, a hint of aroma came out of the meat. The taste was different from the pig that grew up eating watermelon, but somewhat similar to the taste of sweet sugar cane.
Smelling this smell, Yuanzhou suddenly had a bad premonition.
"System, is the origin of this pork clear?" Yuan Zhou asked in his mind.
The system now reads: "The host can check it by himself."
After displaying this sentence, an additional information file appeared in Yuan Zhou's mind, glowing with light.
"This is really a gentle reminder, but I have a worse premonition." Yuan Zhou thought of the previous system's crude science popularization.
Yes, if Yuan Zhou asked this question in the past, the system would immediately teach him a lot of science, making Yuan Zhou feel that being a human is worse than being a pig.
But this time it didn't happen. Instead, Yuan Zhou was asked to check on his own.
Yuanzhou kept his hand, picked up the kitchen knife and chopped the meat with even force, but he clicked on the file sent by the system.
The system now reads: "Xiangcheng Pig, one of the more than 170 extinct species of animals and plants, is one of the extinct animal species."
Yuan Zhou's eyes darkened when he saw the beginning.
"System, do you mean this pig is an extinct breed?" Yuan Zhou asked.
The system now reads: "Yes, this is an extinct local breed in Sichuan Province, but the quality of the pork is excellent, so this system specially preserved and then cultivated it."
"Well, that makes sense. Delicious things cannot be extinct." Yuan Zhou nodded politely, but he still couldn't help but want to curse.
"I often get him some ingredients that are extinct species or rare animals and plants. Those who don't know better think he is engaged in wildlife smuggling." Yuan Zhou complained expressionlessly.
After finishing complaining, Yuanzhou continued to read the information. Learning more about the ingredients is something Yuanzhou must do every time.
Although it feels like self-abuse every time I watch it, after all, these animals live better than him. At least they eat the food provided by the system for free.
Speaking of which, since the system was established, Yuan Zhou no longer lives like a dog.
Because without asking, you know that the dogs raised by the system will definitely live better than him.
The system now reads: "The Xiangcheng pig has a brownish-yellow color, short and light hair, a medium-sized body, a strong constitution, a large head with forehead lines, and large, droopy ears."
"Its body is narrow, its back and waist are straight, its belly is slightly droopy, its hindquarters are well-developed, its limbs are thick, its hooves are strong, its skin on the upper part of the hocks is slightly wrinkled, its tail is thick at the base, and its tail is longer than the hocks."
"Xiangcheng pigs need to grow between 100 and 110 degrees west longitude to 25 degrees north latitude. They like the warm temperate continental monsoon climate environment. The diet they eat also needs to be a combination of fine, green, coarse and side dishes. Only in this way can we raise high-quality Xiangcheng pigs.”
"System, I think I am suitable to live in the climate of such a precise place." Yuan Zhou couldn't help but complain.
The system now reads: "This system is not responsible for the feeding of the host."
"Haha..." Yuan Zhou was speechless.
"Duh duh duh" Although Yuan Zhou was complaining, his men continued to chop the minced meat without any deviation in strength.
It can be seen that the friendly exchanges with the system helped Yuanzhou improve his cooking skills, so Yuanzhou continued to look down.
The system now reads: "For feeding green materials, this system generally uses dandelion, isatis root, big green leaf andrographis paniculata, eucommia leaves, ligustrum lucidum, hawthorn, and astragalus according to the season, and appropriately adds some top-quality Xinhui tangerine peel to enrich the Xiangcheng pig's recipe. "
“In terms of coarse grains, our system combines alpine corn and sweet sorghum for Xiangcheng pigs. Alpine corn has a slow growth cycle but is rich in nutrients. The sweet sorghum tastes delicious. After the meal, there is crispy Meishan sugar cane, which is sweet and juicy. .”
"Meishan sugar cane? I like to eat this too." Yuan Zhou's words this time didn't sound like complaints, but like nostalgia.
In the past, when Yuan Zhou was a child, Yuan Zhou's parents would buy dozens of kilograms of rice and eat it slowly at home during the Chinese New Year.
This kind of sugar cane is much softer than Luohan sugar cane and easier to bite. Yuan Zhou liked to eat it very much at that time, and he liked to use it like a sword and then eat it.
However, Yuan Zhou's nostalgia only lasted for a moment, and he immediately returned to his normal appearance.
After mincing the stuffing, mixing it, and leaving it there waiting for the flavor to come in, Yuan Zhou had already started kneading the dough.
In addition to the filling, the other important thing about this longan bun is the skin. One of the most important points is that the skin must be kneaded to be as smooth and soft as silk.
Therefore, the technique of kneading the dough is completely different from that of soup dumplings.
Knead the dough and adjust the filling. After these are done, it’s time to make the buns.
This is the reason why this longan bun is called this name.
This longan bun is called this because it is shaped like a dragon eye, and the wrapping method is different from other buns.
A hole needs to be exposed when wrapping, but the meat juice contained inside cannot flow out during steaming. When the buns are steamed, the round fillings inside can be seen from the outside and its aroma can be smelled.
