Chapter 121 Indelible Friendship
Shen Yan put the fried bacon and egg fried rice into a bowl, arranged it neatly, and brought it to the table.
Wang Lin and Song Yuntang smelled the aroma and couldn't help but stare at the delicious food in the bowl with salivating eyes.
"Don't worry, sister is going to make spicy fried snails for you, let's eat together later."
After saying that, Shen Yan returned to the kitchen alone and continued to work.
Shen Yan returned to the kitchen and began to prepare the next delicious dish for Wang Lin and Song Yuntang - spicy fried snails.
First, she blanches the snails that have been cleaned in advance in boiling water to remove impurities and odors on the surface.
The blanching time should not be too long, just blanch it for a while, and when the snail shell opens slightly, you can take it out and set aside.
Next, Shen Yan poured a proper amount of cooking oil into the pot, and when the oil was hot, added the chopped onion, ginger and garlic, and stir-fried until fragrant.
Then she added dried chilies and Pixian bean paste and stir-fried the oil until it turned red.
When the aroma is overflowing, Shen Yan puts the blanched snails into the pot and stir-fries them evenly with a spatula to let the snails fully absorb the flavor of the seasoning. At this time, the aroma in the pot is so fragrant that it makes people salivate.
Shen Yan adjusted the heat and seasoning according to her own taste, adding salt, soy sauce and a little sugar to make the snails taste more delicious. She also added a proper amount of water starch to thicken the sauce, which was wrapped around the surface of the snails and added to the taste.
Finally, when the snails in the pot are fried until tender and delicious, exuding a strong spicy flavor and aroma, Shen Yan sprinkles some scallions and coriander as embellishment to add a fresh flavor. A spicy and delicious fried snail is ready.
Shen Yan put the fried spicy snails into a plate, arranged them neatly, and brought them to the table. Wang Lin and Song Yuntang smelled the strong spicy smell and couldn't help but stare at the delicious food on the plate with saliva dripping from their mouths.
"Come and try it! This spicy fried snails is my specialty!" Shen Yan smiled and invited the two girls to taste it.
Wang Lin and Song Yuntang excitedly picked up the chopsticks, gently picked up a snail and put it into their mouths.
The spicy and umami taste intertwined in their mouths, making them exclaim in admiration.
Shen Yan watched the children start eating, and then went back.
She picked a lot of wild fruits on the back mountain yesterday, and she wanted to take this opportunity to make some fruit wine and store it.
Shen Yan returned to the kitchen and began to make wild fruit wine.
She took out the various wild fruits she had picked on the back mountain yesterday and carefully checked the ripeness and completeness of each fruit to make sure she selected the best fruits to make fruit wine.
Chapter 121
First, she put the wild fruits into a large, clean bowl and gently soaked them in clean water to remove dirt and impurities from the surface of the fruits.
She then gently wipes each fruit with a soft cloth to ensure the skin is clean and flawless.
Next, Shen Yan put the processed wild fruits into a clean large jar and pressed them gently to ensure that the juice was fully released.
She added an appropriate amount of white sugar into the jar to promote the fermentation of the juice and increase the sweetness of the wine.
Then, Shen Yan took out the old wine yeast that she had treasured for a long time. This was her ancestral secret recipe for winemaking, which was used to ferment fruit juice into delicious fruit wine.
She evenly sprinkled the old wine yeast on the wild fruits, then soaked the mouth of the jar with clean water and sealed it to prevent the fruit wine from being affected by external pollutants.
After the mouth of the jar was tightly sealed, Shen Yan moved the jar of fruit wine to a ventilated and dry place, waiting for the fermentation to begin.
She knew that making fruit wine takes time and patience, and the best fruit wines often require long aging.
In the jar, the wild fruits slowly release their sweet fruity aroma, which blends with the old wine yeast to form a rich wine aroma.
Shen Yan waited quietly beside the fruit wine, looking forward to the wine maturing and becoming delicious.
In the kitchen, a rich fruity aroma filled the air, as if telling of Shen Yan's love and care for her family.
When there was no one in the main room, Wang Lin put his hands on his hips and walked angrily to Song Yuntang.
"I'm telling you, this is my sister. Don't come to my house in all kinds of ways and try to take my sister away."
Song Yuntang was a little surprised. The little girl in front of him was a few years younger than him, but just a little naive.
She was so naive that she thought she was going to snatch her sister away. Song Yuntang simply thought that Shen Yan was a good sister, so he wanted to play with her.
"Are you threatening me? Little boy, what if I don't agree?"
When Wang Lin heard Song Yuntang's words, a trace of nervousness and uneasiness suddenly appeared on her face. She did not expect that Song Yuntang would treat her warning so lightly.
She originally thought that this would scare Song Yuntang and make him stay away from his sister Shen Yan, but she didn't expect that the other party seemed to be at ease.
Seeing Wang Lin's reaction, Song Yuntang smiled, patted her head gently, and comforted her: "Don't worry, little friend, I just became good friends with your sister, and I won't take her away."
Wang Lin breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. She didn't completely believe what Song Yuntang said, but at the moment she couldn't resist any more.
After all, her sister's attitude towards Song Yuntang has not changed, and she has no reason to do anything to Song Yuntang.
So Wang Lin could only turn around silently and tiptoe out of the main room, still feeling uneasy.
Song Yuntang looked at Wang Lin's back and shook her head slightly. She knew that Wang Lin's concern for her sister was out of love, but she also hoped that Wang Lin could understand that the friendship between her and Shen Yan was just an ordinary friendship without any other intentions.
Then, Song Yuntang turned and walked to the window, looking at the night scene outside, and a sense of emotion welled up in his heart.
She understood how precious family warmth and harmony were, and the sisterhood between Shen Yan and Wang Lin was indelible.
Although she also likes Shen Yan, Shen Yan is only her sister-in-law after all, and her relationship is not as close as Shen Yan and Wang Lin.
After dinner, Song Yuntang came to the yard to play. She found everything she saw new and interesting.
"Wow, this is your chicken coop. It's so big, isn't it? The bowls for the chickens and ducks to eat are made of wicker. It's so special."
Song Yuntang walked around the yard. Everything in front of her made her feel new and excited.
The yard is arranged in an orderly manner, and every detail reveals the owner's care and refinement.
She followed Shen Yan to the chicken coop, looked at the huge chicken coop, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, this chicken coop is too big! It seems that your chickens and ducks are living very comfortably."
She gently touched the wall of the chicken coop with her hand, feeling the texture of the beech boards, her heart full of curiosity.
She turned around again and found that the bowls for the chickens and ducks to eat were actually woven with willow branches, which looked unique.
Song Yuntang bent down and carefully observed the basins woven from willow twigs. Each twig appeared exceptionally flexible, as if telling of the craftsman's skillful hands and ingenuity.
There is also a neat row of flower beds in the yard. Various colorful flowers sway in the breeze, exuding a faint fragrance.
