Chapter 338: Preparations in Progress
After carefully counting the number of people, Gu Chang immediately understood that it would be impossible for him and his second aunt to make so many dishes even if they worked themselves to death!
Therefore, Gu Chang immediately made a phone call to gather people!
The wives of Wang Jinglun, Gu Laosi and others were called over one after another!
Not long after, Gu Chang successfully formed a cooking team of ten people and immediately threw himself into the busy work of the night!
Of course these people didn't come empty-handed, they brought almost all the pots, pans, and utensils from their homes!
There is no way around this. After all, there are too few pots and bowls in Second Aunt's house. They are simply not enough!
……
At this moment, the scene in front of Gu Guoqing's house is simply breathtaking!
There were more than a dozen simple but neatly arranged earthen stoves, neatly arranged like a well-organized army.
These earthen stoves are made entirely of stones, and a huge iron pot is placed on top of each stove, as if showing people the upcoming feast.
Next to each iron pot, there is a pile of freshly chopped firewood, which is prepared for this grand cooking event.
Gu Chang was busy assigning tasks, and he was personally responsible for making a pot of fragrant mushroom stewed chicken.
There are two fat chickens and three pounds of mushrooms in this pot. This is Gu Chang's specialty.
The pot next to it belongs to Gu Laosi’s wife. She is an expert in stewing pork ribs!
When Gu Chang was learning the technique of stewing spare ribs as a child, he followed her closely and humbly asked for advice.
On the other side, Wang Jinglun's daughter-in-law was carefully cleaning a few wild rabbits.
These wild rabbits were the trophies captured by Xiao Shanzi in the mountains a few days ago. This year, there seem to be a large number of rabbits, almost an infestation, and they can be seen everywhere in the mountains.
When the weather gets cold, rabbit meat is especially suitable for tonic. It is cheaper than chicken and duck meat, more nutritious than beef and mutton, and is more fragrant when fried.
The ancients had a saying of "Rabbit meat in the face of frost", which refers to the frost season, from late autumn to winter. The rabbit meat at this time is delicious and has high nutritional value!
Second Aunt was lighting a fire, preparing to stew a giant pig’s head!
This pig's head has been cleaned by Gu Laosi, and all the hair on its head has been shaved clean!
You know what, this guy Gu Laosi is always upright in his work!
Second Aunt put the prepared spices, onions, ginger and garlic into the pot one by one and stewed them together with the pig's head!
Second Aunt's method of cooking pig's head is unmatched in Shangouzi Village except for Uncle Wang!
Gu Laoer’s wife had just cleaned the pig’s trotters. She was going to stew them with soybeans. This had to be put into the pot as soon as possible. The longer it was stewed, the softer, more fragrant and smoother it would be!
Xiao Shanzi is on winter vacation now, and now he follows Gu Chang around all day long!
Today I insisted on learning how to cook!
Gu Chang couldn't persuade him, so he pushed him in front of the big pot of stewed chicken with mushrooms.
To learn how to cook, you must first learn how to light the fire! When Gu Chang was learning how to cook, he always followed these aunts and grandmothers to light the fire!
Ignore him, Gu Chang needs to hurry up and deal with this big goose!
Hey, you know what, this goose is really fat!
Although this goose has only been in the first-level chicken farm for less than half a year, it has already grown to the size of an adult goose!
The meat of geese at this time is still very tender, unlike old geese which are so chewy!
Gu Chang made some noodles, intending to add some pancakes to the stewed goose in the iron pot later!
Let the pancake be fully soaked in the aroma of the meat, and it will taste even more delicious than the meat!
It is said that Wang Xianye has a dog nose. This guy arrived at Gu Guoqing's house just after noon!
Just as Gu Chang put the goose into the pot, he saw this guy running towards him happily with a box of wine!
"Damn, Brother Chang is really good. This big goose is so exciting just to look at!"
Wang Xianye stared at the goose in the pot and his saliva was about to burst out!
"It's too early! There are still five or six hours before dinner!" Gu Chang was speechless!
"Hey! Let me come and take a look first to see if there's anything I can help with!" He had a smile on his face as if he had succeeded in his evil plan.
"What's up? Come and help me taste the saltiness!"
"Or maybe my brother Chang knows me well. I am perfect for this job!"
Wang Xianye looked at the busy aunts and ladies nearby with excitement on his face.
"Dear aunts and ladies, please assign me a job if you have any! I am best at tasting the saltiness of the dishes!" Wang Xianye said loudly.
This made the aunties next to them burst into laughter!
Wang Xianye's reputation as a foodie is quite well-known in Shangouzi Village, second only to the fact that Gu Chang's wife gave birth to a big fat boy for him!
