Not long after, a group of relatives surrounded Han Shuzhen:

"Dr. Han, I keep having hiccups when I eat recently. What medicine should I take?"

"It's probably because you've caught a cold. Eat less cold food and cold fruits, and drink more porridge to stay healthy. If it doesn't work, you'll have to go to the hospital for a checkup."

"I always have stomach pains from time to time, especially in the middle of the night. The pain is not serious. Sometimes it just heals after rubbing it."

"It may be gastritis. Eat less greasy, spicy and irritating food. If you are still worried, go to the hospital for a checkup. A gastroscopy is not expensive and you can just take a clear look inside your stomach."

"..."

Everyone asked questions one by one, and Han Shuzhen answered calmly. She even subconsciously wanted the students to remember it. When she came to her senses, she realized that this was not an outpatient department of the hospital.

Shen Jiayue said with a smile:

"I thought everyone would surround me asking questions and urging me to have a baby. I didn't expect my mother to be so popular and steal my popularity."

Lin Xu cuts green peppers quickly:

"Normally it is too difficult to see a doctor, but now that I finally have the authority of my mother, I naturally have to ask more questions."

Shen Jiayue handed him the green onions and whispered:

"Unfortunately, what they don't know is that my mother has the lowest medical skills in the family. My grandfather, grandmother, uncle, aunt, aunt, and uncle are all better than her."

Lin Xu: "..."

It’s no fun for you to break things up like this.

He cut the green peppers into hobs, chopped some green onions, put them into a basket, and then poured them into the mutton pot.

Stir-fry twice to let the mutton oil bring out the spiciness of the green pepper and onion, and it's ready to serve.

"Well, the aroma is so strong, Xu Bao, would it taste better if I used mutton from Datong?"

"It's definitely better. The sheep over there are different. If you want to eat it later, I'll ask Lao Huang to send one through the cold chain so that our family can enjoy it."

"Thank you Xubao!"

Not long after, everyone had arrived and everyone began to take their seats.

Twenty tables of guests were seated in the restaurant and the iron shed at the other end of the yard.

The yard is leeward from the wind and is quite warm. Eating in the shed is not only not cold, it even feels a bit wild.

Lin Xu and Shi Wenming took down the hot roast chicken pot and simmered it for a while before the roast chicken was ready to be served.

Looking at the braised chicken soup in the pot, Shi Wenming said with a smile:

"These soups need to be put away. Maybe when we turn around, all the tourists in our scenic spot will have a roast chicken."

He was just joking, but Lin Xu thought it shouldn't be difficult.

After all, this roast chicken is perfect and the taste is absolutely impeccable.

The dishes were served one after another, and Lin Xu also started busy cooking.

He put the marinated fish one by one into a large oil pan and fried it. He fried it first, then returned it to the pan and fried it again when it was served. Then he poured the cooked sweet and sour sauce on it, and the sweet and sour carp was officially ready.

.

Rural banquets are very particular. The first few courses are basically cold dishes, such as cold beef, cold pig ears and peanuts.

After these dishes are served, the hot dishes begin, interspersed with serving whole chickens, whole fish, and whole knuckles.

After serving the big items, it’s time to toast.

After that, a salty soup was served first, and then it was the turn to serve the food and various steaming bowls. After these were served, a sweet soup was served, and the whole banquet came to an end.

According to the rules in Yinzhou, there are no balls in red affairs, only in white affairs.

In the middle of the ceremony, there will be a dish of taro balls or sesame balls, which are the favorite foods of children, and they will even fight each other to get them.

"Start serving the roast chicken!"

When Lin Xu heard this, he immediately took off the lid of the stewed soup, and at the same time took a big spoon to scoop out all the fat on the surface of the stewed soup.

By now the roasted chicken had become crispy and rotten, so he took it out on a plate.

Ladle the soup onto a plate, decant the soup slightly and put it on a large serving tray.

He specially made more roast chicken today in order to eat it on New Year's Eve tomorrow. He took out all the remaining roast chicken and brought it to the kitchen to dry.

Then he took off his apron, and under the leadership of Lin Hongqi and an elder in his family, he and Shen Jiayue toasted everyone.

After the toast, Shen Jiayue whispered:

"Xubao, can you sit down and eat with me? I'm a little nervous about eating with my elders, so I don't dare to let go."

"I'll eat the mutton with you when I serve it out."

Only then did Shen Jiayue remember that she hadn't eaten the salt-fried mutton yet, so she said happily:

"Yes, there is also mutton. Please put more on our table later. I'm afraid there won't be enough."

Lin Xu smiled:

"Two sheep are definitely enough to eat."

After saying that, he took a stack of small stainless steel pots to the iron pot, opened the lid, and the delicious smell of salt-fried lamb wafted out from inside.

The surface of the mutton in the pot is slightly browned, with a strong spicy and green onion flavor.

There is a lot of fat on the bottom of the pot, but there is no smell.

Lin Xu used a spoon to fill the pots one by one. After filling, he poured the rest into a large pot and brought it to the table where Shen Jiayue was sitting. By the way, he sat down next to the girl.

"Wow, is this salt-fried mutton? It looks delicious."

Shen Jiayue couldn't wait to pick up a piece and put it in her disposable bowl. When she opened her mouth and took a bite, her mouth was filled with the delicious taste of mutton.

The mutton is fresh and tender, with a slightly fried feeling on the surface, while the mutton inside is juicy. The umami of the meat, the umami of the green pepper, and the umami of the salt all come together to make you appetite instantly.

Han Shuzhen tasted a piece of mutton chop and immediately praised Lin Xu's craftsmanship:

"The mutton cooked by Xiaoxu is really delicious, fragrant and fresh, and it tastes very tender."

Lin Xu said:

"I still use goat meat, which has less fat. If I use sheep meat with more fat, the taste will be better."

When he heard that it could be even more delicious, even Shen Guofu, who was drinking with Lin Xu's relatives at the next table, was also attracted. He said:

"I'll call Lao Huang later and ask him to send a few prairie sheep over as soon as possible to see how high the upper limit of this salt-fried mutton is."

Lin Xu did not refuse. On the contrary, he was planning to redeem his perfect salt-fried mutton technique.

After all, the system requires ten perfect dishes. This salt-fried mutton dish is easy to make and tastes good. It is suitable for serving in scenic spots.

The dishes served at this time are basically side dishes, and the staple food is also served.

If you like steamed buns, you can eat steamed buns, and if you like rice, you can eat rice. You can choose between the two options.

Lin Xu served Shen Jiayue a bowl of rice, and the girl couldn't wait to put two pieces of mutton into the bowl, ready to enjoy it.

Seeing that she was eating happily, Lin Xu picked up a piece of lamb leg and tasted it. He thought it tasted really good. Compared with the original recipe of "a handful of green onions, a handful of salt, and a bowl of water", there were more dried chili peppers and green chili peppers, which caused the taste. Better, more delicious.

While I was eating, several kinds of bowls came out one after another.

Shen Jiayue picked up a piece of crispy meat and put it into her mouth, sighing and saying:

"It is still enjoyable to eat this kind of village banquet. It feels much better than eating in a restaurant. Thank you Xubao for letting me experience the banquet in my hometown in Yinzhou."

Lin Xu smiled, and just as he said there was no need to be so polite, a system prompt sounded in his mind:

"The host holds a traditional village banquet, completes the reward task [Village Banquet], and is awarded a mysterious gift package. Congratulations to the host."

As soon as the beep sounded, a small golden bag appeared in the inventory.

Is this the mysterious gift package?

Lin Xu tried to open it, and the prompt sounded again:

"Congratulations to the host for receiving an excellent food learning card and a lottery for excellent local snacks. Do you want to draw the lottery immediately?"

I completed the task while busy, but the result was only two excellent-level rewards.

Isn’t this too fussy?

Lin Xuzheng was muttering, and suddenly saw Dundun running over, and his hope was immediately rekindled.

As long as this little guy is good, the Excellence level may not be unable to produce good dishes. After all, local snacks cover a wide range of areas. Super dishes such as roasted whole lamb are also among the snacks in the category of gourmet food.

As for roast duck, the calling card of Beijing, it is also a snack.

So this time it’s up to Dundun to see if he can come up with a more eye-catching dish.

Thinking of this, he picked up Dundun and said silently in his heart:

"Lottery!"
