"Come on, Huahua, try my new dish. This is my new fish soup rice." Zhang Tong put a large white porcelain bowl in front of Jianghua with a smile at home.
Jiang Hua was sitting on the sofa, six to seven months pregnant, her belly was protruding obviously. As a high-level leader, Jiang Hua still has some privileges.
For example, maternity leave is much longer than many people want. The maternity leave of ordinary civil servants (including teachers) is generally only 100 days at most. The better ones may last up to 120 days.
In general companies, female employees who take maternity leave are basically staying without pay, or only paying the minimum wage.
However, Jiang Huaxiu's maternity leave can be granted up to 180 days, and it is still paid leave. So out of protection for the baby in his womb, Jiang Hua reported his maternity leave a few days ago.
The organizational approval was also quick, and the maternity leave was approved for Jianghua the next day. Her main work is now handed over to the deputy or handed over to Huang Gang.
Jiang Hua's physical fitness has always been very good, even very good. After all, there are not many people in China or even the whole world who can beat her.
So in the early stages of pregnancy, Jiang Hua hardly had any physical discomfort. There are no symptoms such as calcium deficiency during pregnancy and hyperglycemia during pregnancy due to pregnancy.
There were no problems such as nausea and vomiting that may occur in early pregnancy. Originally, Jiang Hua thought he could survive easily.
As a result, the more she got to the third trimester, her reaction became bigger. From time to time, you will feel dizzy and weak, and you will sweat at night when you sleep. Even when Zhang Tong was sleeping next to her, he would wake her up with a hiccup. So Lao Zhang now has to sleep in separate rooms with Jianghua to improve Jianghua's sleep quality.
In addition, Jiang Hua's appetite is also very bad. In the past, Jiang Hua had no taboos, and there was almost nothing she could not eat. Her appetite has always been top-notch. After all, girls with a bad appetite cannot grow to more than two hundred catties during puberty.
But in the third trimester, she had no appetite at all. I don't like eating anything. In the past two days, I only ate some fruits and didn't want to eat any staple food.
That is, occasionally I want to eat some bread and snacks.
Lao Zhang saw it in his eyes and was anxious in his heart. Now Jiang Hua has a big belly and doesn't want to eat anything, how can this work? Eating fruit alone is not enough for nutrition. There are only some fibers and vitamins in the fruit, and the rest is water and sugar. No protein and no fat, which is not conducive to the development of the fetus.
So in order to let Jiang Hua eat something, Zhang Tong has worked hard. Now Lao Zhang is learning everything, whether it is Chinese food or Western food, as long as Jiang Hua suddenly wants to eat any dish, Zhang Tong will cook it immediately. Even if you don't know how to do it, you will learn it immediately. The purpose is to let Jiang Hua eat two more bites.
No, Jiang Hua suddenly said today that he wanted to eat fish soup, and Zhang Tong immediately made it.
Buy two catties of pork ribs stewed soup, and then kill and wash the mandarin fish bought by yourself. Then use a sharp kitchen knife to slice up the mandarin fish from the tail to the middle of the mandarin fish bone.
Mandarin fish is a homonym for expensive fish, and mandarin fish is indeed considered expensive among freshwater fish commonly found in the market. Farmed mandarin fish weighs about thirty-five to forty-one catties, while wild mandarin fish weighs seven to eighty-one catties.
There is a reason why it is expensive, because mandarin fish hardly has the earthy smell that freshwater fish usually have. Moreover, the meat of mandarin fish is more tender and firm. Even compared with all kinds of expensive grouper fish, it is not inferior. Moreover, the mandarin fish has only main spines, without those annoying tiny burrs.
This is simply the gospel for those who like to eat fish but hate fishbone.
What Zhang Tong bought was a mandarin fish weighing eight or two, which is the best weight for eating mandarin fish.
For example, herring, grass carp, and carp need to be big and thick to be beautiful, but mandarin fish is just the opposite. A suitable mandarin fish cannot grow too large, otherwise the meat will be loose. At the same time, it should not be too small, as a mandarin fish that is too small is not plump enough.
Therefore, the most suitable weight for eating a mandarin fish is within one catty, and eight taels is the best. Nine taels is full, and seven taels is short.
Zhang Tong cut the mandarin fish into two pieces with a knife and separated out two clean pieces of fish. Then slice it with a knife, and cut it into thin and light-transmitting butterfly pieces.
There is no waste of fish bones and fish heads. Heat the iron pan and pour oil. When the oil temperature is five layers hot, add ginger and garlic. When the aroma of ginger and garlic is diffused, throw the fish bones and fish heads into the pan and fry slowly until both sides are fried. Add the spare rib soup that has been prepared long ago when they are slightly burnt yellow.
Boiling fish soup to make it milky white is the pursuit of most people, but many people can't reach that standard milky white. The problem often lies in the step of adding water.
Do not add cold water when frying fish, but add boiling hot water.
When the hot pork ribs soup is added to the fish pot, it only takes a few minutes to boil, and the whole pot of fish soup has already presented an attractive milky white color.
Zhang Tong was not idle either, and put the dried rice (note) that had been prepared earlier into a large white porcelain bowl. Then layer the sashimi on top.
At this time, pour the boiled fish soup directly into the bowl, sprinkle with a handful of finely chopped celery foam, close the lid and let it simmer for three minutes.
When Zhang Tong lifted the lid in front of Jiang Hua, there were sporadic green celery foam floating on the milky white fish soup. Thin fish fillets have been thoroughly cooked by the boiling fish soup and float in the bowl.
At the bottom of the bowl, there is rice soaked with soup. This kind of cooking can only be done when the dry rice is dry. When it meets the soup, it will absorb the soup like a sponge, allowing itself to return from dry to round white rice.
A bowl of fish soup rice is simple to use, but the taste is extremely good. It is light and full-bodied, the fish fillet is smooth, the soup and rice are soft and glutinous, and the celery is crispy.
The tangy aroma finally touched Jiang Hua's taste buds. She was somewhat refreshed after lying on the sofa without thinking.
"Help me up."
Jiang Hua, who was lifted up, ate more than half a bowl of fish soup and rice, and his spirit was much better. This was the only serious meal Jiang Hua had in the past few days.
"Ah, it's so tiring to be pregnant! I don't want this child anymore, Lao Zhang, please take it away for me." Jiang Hua, who couldn't eat well and sleep well, rolled his eyes and stared at the ceiling talking angrily. Standing on all fours, she now has no image of a gravity queen.
"Oh, Huahua, you're talking angry again." Zhang Tong naturally couldn't follow Jiang Hua's words, so he changed the subject and said, "Why don't we play games for a while. Doubles with a metal slug?"
"I don't want to play, it's so boring."
"Then let me guess what you draw?"
"It's not interesting."
"Guess a reward of 100 yuan." As someone with a monthly salary of only 1200 yuan, 100 yuan at a time is already a huge sum of money.
Jiang Hua became interested: "That's fine." It's a trivial matter whether money is not money, the main thing is that you draw for fun I guess.
Zhang Tong and Jiang Hua were chatting while playing with your painting I guess.
"Old Zhang, how is the business of the company now?"
"Very good. The sales volume of the product is extremely high now. I didn't even think about it. After that live broadcast, it helped us open up the global market in an instant. Especially the three-piece housework set is completely sold in North America. There is also a medical wand. , They are also purchasing on a large scale. It is expected that this year they will be able to spread the goods all over North America."
"That's good." Jiang Hua drew out a random topic smoothly: "No, what did I draw." Jiang Hua showed a pig.
Zhang Tong didn't even think about it: "Pig!"
"No, guess again."
"Roast suckling pig?"
"No, it's a character."
"Zhu Bajie! Marshal Canopy, Zhu Gangman!" Zhang Tong felt that he must be right this time.
Jiang Hua shook his head helplessly: "Silly boy, if you don't look in the mirror for a day, why don't you even recognize yourself." Jiang Hua opened the answer to the question: Zhang Tong.
"No, one hundred dollars."
"That's not counting, you cheated me!"
"What's wrong with you? Haven't you heard that men are all big pigs?"
"Then if I'm so good, I'm considered a big pig's trotter?"
"Yes, you are better, so you are a whole pig." Jiang Hua's words made sense.
When Zhang Tong and Jiang Hua were enjoying the happiness of husband and wife, an untimely call came.
"Boss, two arrogant Americans and a traitor are here, are you free to come over and deal with it?"
ps: Note: If you can’t make dried rice by yourself, you can buy it from Taobao. Just search for brewed rice. The mandarin fish soup and rice in this chapter is a very simple dish, which can be started with zero knowledge, but it will be considered a dish that is especially good at cooking after it is served. It is strongly recommended that everyone try it. The most important thing is that it tastes delicious. You only need a spoonful of salt for seasoning.
In addition, the third watch, the ball tickets~ I'm going to go to eat.
