Episode 496
Raising a foster mother
.
Hundred Thousand Great Mountains (十萬大山), the home of the Demonic Cult.
In my past life, the place called Xinjiang Tianshan (新疆天山) was a huge mountain range.
Well, there is a mountain with the same name, Hundred Thousand Daesan Mountain, on the border with Vietnam, but in the setting of Magyo, most Magyo are located on that Cheonsan Mountain.
A mountain range with peaks covered in permanent snow.
The mountain range is so huge and mountainous that no one knows where the Demonic Cult is hiding. It is the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
In a past life, it was a mountain that formed the natural border between the Central Plains and Kyrgyzstan, but now, during the Song era, it is a different country.
Tibet belongs to a country called Toban (吐蕃) in Chinese.
The population composition is a bit unusual, as there are small numbers of Uyghurs, Han Chinese, Kazakhs, Hui, Kyrgyz, Mongolians, and even Arabs and Europeans.
Because it is a place along the Silk Road, various races are distributed due to the influx of people from all over the world.
Because of this, the food culture here is similar to that of Jungwon, but it is also completely different. It has a very unique food culture mixed with the food culture of India and Arab and the food culture of Jungwon.
But that’s a story from a past life.
Since the food culture of the Central Plains may not have had any influence yet, judging from the fact that we bought sheep when we occupied our house in Fuqing in the past, it seems that the food of the Central Plains during the Song Dynasty was not suitable at all.
Therefore, I decided to head to the kitchen by persuading my wives, who are strictly prohibited from entering the kitchen these days.
He was sent to me by my mother, so I couldn’t starve him to death, right?
“It seems Chauvin is not good at eating.”
“Chauvin? Why? I think Gaga’s food is delicious? “Do you have unusual tastes?”
“Youngyoung sister, maybe it’s because you’re from another country.”
“What’s different about Tobun?”
“Very different. Anyway, that’s not important. At this point, I’d like to add another dish to the restaurant and make one that suits Chauvin’s taste. Can I come into the kitchen?”
The wives were lost in thought at my question.
They exchanged glances for a moment and then nodded together.
“great. Instead, Maenghee, Pooryeon, and I will accompany you this time too. gaga.”
“No, let’s just do it for one person.”
It seemed like the three of them were trying to cook the avatar dish they did last time, but it was difficult because there was no way it was going to work.
However, Youngyoung’s overbearing attitude.
Youngyoung crossed his arms and said with an expression that said absolutely nothing.
“No. Do you know how big a deal it would be if Ga falls!? I contacted each person’s family now and they said they were all upset! “Right now, there is no baby, so just looking at Cheong’s house means that if something big happens to Gaga, there will be no money left!”
“Well, does that happen?”
When I thought about it, what Youngyoung said was correct.
If I die, there is no way Cheong can get married again, so the payment will be cut off.
“Ah, I understand. “Then let’s go together.”
In the end, I surrendered to Yeongyeong’s logic and asked Yeongyeong to buy me some lamb.
You can’t talk about the food culture there without mentioning lamb.
Toban and Seoha share a border, and because the proportion of nomads is high, sheep are the staple food.
“First of all, Youngyoung, go to the military today and buy some lamb.”
“Huh! Hey, parenting!?”
Youngyoung raises her eyes when told to bring her children.
The sheep of the Song people during the Song Dynasty is exceptional, and even though almost all of their food is imported, sheep is something they cannot afford to quit.
That’s why it doesn’t make sense to leave out lamb when having a feast, and Youngyoung’s favorite thing is lamb, so she raised her eyes when I told her to buy lamb.
Since our restaurant does not serve lamb until now, Youngyoung had to use lamb skewers from a market stall for a while to taste lamb.
“Is this dish lamb? How much should I buy!?”
A question from Yeongyoung, who is delighted to be told to buy lamb.
Although we haven’t been able to do omakase yet since Senate Day, we have opened the third floor for those who want to eat quietly.
Since high-end food is being sold on this floor, it would be a good time to add a menu.
I can’t always take care of Wolyoung.
I spoke loudly to Youngyoung.
“one animal!”
“one animal!?”
“When you go, take money from Cheong and go, Youngyoung.”
“yes! gaga!”
When told to buy a sheep, Yeongyeong took the bag from Cheongi and quickly ran outside.
They were so excited that they were jumping around like children.
The poor girl covered her mouth and laughed when she saw that.
“Hehe. “Teacher, I guess you like your sister.”
“I guess so.”
While watching Youngyoung’s back as she walked away, I entered the kitchen and stood at my cooking table to ask Ga-ryeon and Maeng-hee to prepare the food.
Then I felt discomfort.
Current business hours.
I couldn’t help but feel uncomfortable as poor girl and her sister were standing close to each other to avoid disturbing others.
I don’t know about anything else, but my elbow was very uncomfortable.
‘I can’t concentrate because I keep touching soft things.’
Cushioned feeling that pushes up both elbows.
I sighed and asked poor girl a favor.
“My dear, first prepare some fennel, flowering plants, ginger, cinnamon, and fruit.”
Flowers and spices such as fennel, cinnamon and excess ginger are common ingredients inside the spots, and soon the poor girl who brought them asked back.
“all right. teacher. “Is there anything else to prepare?”
“Could you bring me some dough and bake it for me? Oh, sister, will you do that for me?”
Poor girl could probably bake, but she seemed to be more talented at cooking than I thought, so I asked her to do it.
“Oh, you mean baked dumplings?”
“Yes, sister. Just grill both sides slowly over a gentle fire.”
“okay. “I will try.”
Because Yukyeopmak (肉夹馍) is sold as a snack and side dish for children, the dough was always prepared.
So, with that, I asked my sister to bake me some bread from Joongwon.
When my sister, after two failed attempts, had baked one loaf of bread until golden brown, Yeongyeong entered the kitchen, carrying a trimmed sheep around his neck like a butcher.
-thud!
“gaga! I bought it! I wanted to buy the bigger one, but Mrs. Joo said that the smaller one smells less and the meat is more tender. Is that correct? It definitely seems to smell less…”
If the sheep has a strong smell and is tough, it is a sign that the sheep is very old.
In my past life in the West, sheep were classified by number of months, so what Aunt Zhou said was correct.
“Then, it seems that Auntie Ju thought of us and chose a good guy.”
“I see. Great. “So, how do I do this?”
Youngyoung is happy with my answer.
“Would you like to ask Soso to divide it into bones and flesh, and cut the bones into finger-length pieces?”
Even though Soso was busy, he took some time to ask me to cut the meat and bones, and soaked them in cold water.
“Oh, I need blueberry garlic sprouts, woodyia, and chives. I guess I’ll have to ask Mimi to buy them for me.”
“all right. “I’ll tell you.”
Hwoncho (萱草) means daylily in Korean.
Even in my past life, I used to eat a lot of seasoned vegetables. While Koreans prefer to eat fresh daylilies by boiling them, in the central region, they are dried, boiled, seasoned, or used in cooking.
So, I asked Mimi to buy garlic sprouts, wood ear mushrooms, and day lilies, and in a large pot, I first put the small fennel, flower shoots, ginger, cinnamon, and radish fruits that Ga-ryeon had brought. Add it and boil the water.
Since lamb has a bad smell and a unique smell, the purpose of preparing water boiled in spices like this is to remove the bad smell and smell of the sheep.
-Bubbling.
After waiting for a while, the water started to boil, and when I looked next to me, my sister was baking mak with her poor girl.
“How many can you bake?”
“Should we just bake everything?”
“all right. It’s a lot. “Is this an heirloom that you want us to taste all of?”
“Sure. sister.”
While the fragrant smell of bread was wafting in the air, the sheep bones that had been soaked in cold water were placed in boiled water with spices.
The purpose was to remove the unpleasant smell and make broth at the same time, so I put the bones in the pot and covered it with a lid.
“First of all, the broth is ready. “After that…”
“Here, my lord. Mokyi and Hwoncho!”
“Thank you. “Thank you for your hard work.”
Mimi bought garlic sprouts like a bullet and Hwoncho (萱草).
I asked her to give me the wood ear and Hwoncho, soak them in water, and ask Ga Ryeon to wash and cut the garlic sprouts.
Dried soybeans and chives should be soaked in water like this before use, and garlic sprouts should be added at the end to add flavor.
-Bubbling.
As the spice broth containing the bones boiled, I skimmed the foam that rose to the top.
When I thought there was enough broth from the bones, I put all the lamb that I had previously cut into fist-sized pieces into the pot.
I also seasoned the broth slightly with salt.
The water will boil down, which reflects that.
The kitchen became free after soaking the starch noodles in water and boiling the pot of broth for about half an hour.
After the morning business, people gathered around me.
“It looks like it’s a lamb dish.”
“This is the first time we’ve had lamb at our restaurant.”
“By the way, is it something like the Yukjeopak?”
People who looked at the mountain of food that my sister had grilled and wondered if it was the same as the previous hamburgers.
First, I asked people to take their seats at the table.
“Well, since there are no customers and everyone is hungry, please sit down and wait for the delicious food to be served. “The kitchen staff, let’s just help finish this.”
“I understand. “Brother-in-law.”
“All right. “Mr. Cheongun.”
First, my sister put two pieces of roasted bean sprouts on the large bowl where we served the beef noodles.
And I asked the kitchen staff.
“Just leave it outside as is.”
“like this?”
“You mean just baked dumplings?”
“Teacher, don’t you use lamb?”
The kitchen staff were perplexed when they were busy grilling lamb but only bread without content was sent out.
He smiled and nodded.
“Of course, you can just pay.”
Two wheat breads in a large bowl.
Youngyoung’s mouth popped out as she accepted the treat.
“What’s this!”
I loved eating lamb, but it seemed absurd to only get two loaves of wheat bread.
However, Chobin, the real name of Wolyeong, my sister-in-law, who was sent by my mother, took the bowl like an experienced person and opened her eyes wide.
“This···.”
Then he took the membrane out of the bowl and began to tear it little by little into small pieces.
“Ma’am, follow me and do this. “I’m still cooking.”
“Are you still making it? “But you want me to cut it into pieces like that?”
“Yes, the smaller it is, the tastier it is.”
Youngyoung glances in my direction.
When I nodded with a smile, Youngyoung sat down and started cutting the membrane into pieces, following Chauvin.
And other members of the family followed Chauvin in cutting the membrane into pieces.
“Unrang, is that right?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“I worked hard to bake it, but isn’t it a bit of a waste?”
My sister looked a little disappointed, but that was the way I was supposed to cook it.
In the meantime, I blanched the tree ear and daylily in hot water, and boiled the glass noodles once to make them soft.
The preparations are now complete.
After waiting a little while, Chauvin took the dishes from his table and held them out, bowing his head.
“For me… thank you Confucius.”
“Can you enjoy this?”
He must have realized that I made this for him.
When I asked the question with a smiling face, Chauvin nodded as if he was embarrassed.
“Of course. Ah, from the front, they are Mrs. Tang, Mrs. Zhuge, mine, and Mrs. Mo Yong.”
“I understand.”
When I checked the bowl I received, there was a small amount of finely chopped seedlings inside.
On top of that, I placed some boiled green ear and day lilies and a handful of glass noodles.
Then, I took out the lamb that had been boiling in the broth, cut it into thin slices, put it on top, and poured in the hot broth.
Lastly, if you sprinkle the cut garlic sprouts on top, you will get a traditional dish from Xinjiang in the Makyo region that dates back to the Han Dynasty.
The lamb sujebi raised pomo (羊肉泡馍) was completed.
