Chapter 1225 The Charm of Wok-fried Vegetables (2 in 1)(1/2)
The heated and melted beeswax is poured out.
After a while, the melted red molten iron was poured in again along the holes left in advance.
The sound of a small saw pulling the upper part of the mold also sounded.
The upper layer of the mold was opened and removed, and the iron pot was taken out with the combined action of iron tongs and a wet rag.
This time, everyone did not rejoice immediately. Instead, they focused their attention on the iron pot and looked at it carefully to see if there were any holes in it.
Even though they didn't see any holes, these people were not overjoyed like before. Instead, they lifted the iron pot, which was a little colder, and then raised their heads and looked at the sky carefully.
Check to see if there is any light penetration on it.
After such a careful inspection, it was confirmed that the iron pot this time had indeed no holes and would not leak. After that, everyone breathed a long sigh of relief and hurried towards the kitchen with the iron pot...
…
When these people came to the kitchen, the unlucky big fat pig had already been shaved. A man was blowing air into the hole cut by the pig's feet with a sharp knife, blowing air into it with his mouth.
The pig lying there was blowing loudly in preparation for the subsequent disembowelment.
Seeing such a scene, these people who came with iron pots let out a long breath.
It’s not too late to wait for someone to come!
If the Son of God had killed all the pigs, cut all the pork, and was waiting for him and others to cook in the iron pot, but he and others still hadn't made the iron pot, that would be really bad.
It’s so embarrassing! It’s really shameful!
When Han Cheng saw these people coming with iron pots, he had a smile on his face.
Then he took the pot, which was 30 centimeters in diameter, and looked it up and down in his hand. The smile on his face became even brighter.
The iron pot in my hand is a little small, but it is indeed a pot. It has the familiar shape of a pot, and it is also very complete. It is not like the previous pots, which were full of large and small holes.
.
"Okay! Well done!"
Han Cheng smiled and praised these people.
Then he said: "Today we can taste the braised pork made in the iron pot!"
The conversation changed: "But this pot is too small and too few, and the pigs are too big to fit in one pot. Can you guys cast some more iron pots so that everyone in the tribe can taste the iron pot today?"
What does cooking in a pot taste like?”
After hearing Han Cheng's words, the faces of these people who came with the iron pots were filled with joy, their hearts suddenly filled with pride, and even their backs could not help but straighten.
Under the leadership of one person, these people immediately turned around and walked away, heading all the way towards the iron smelting furnace.
Brave, high-spirited, and extremely excited.
After arriving at the iron smelting furnace, these people split up and directly used four molds, including the one that cast an iron pot with many holes.
It's just that when using this model, someone made some improvements to it.
This improvement is to use a small drill to make two openings in the other two places on the upper part of the mold.
After opening these two openings, we began to pour molten iron inside.
This is an improvement based on the situation that occurred in the previous casting.
Here in Tieshan Residential Area, many things are made of iron.
However, none of the things cast before were as big as this iron pot.
Therefore, some situations that were never encountered when casting ironware were encountered now.
However, in the face of such a situation, after a little thought, the people present began to try to find a way to solve it.
It is true that the people here have never used iron to cast such large iron tools, but don't forget that there are copper mines in the Qingque tribe, and the development of copper casting and other technologies is earlier than that of iron, and is much faster than that of iron.
Iron is good.
Although there are many differences between these two things, they still have many similarities.
So after encountering the current situation, those present who had experience in bronze casting immediately thought of these from the methods of casting bronzes.
Similar problems can be solved using this method when casting bronze wares, so why can't we try to apply this method to the casting of iron wares?
In fact, this kind of general approach to solving things by analogy is very desirable.
Because through this method, the iron pot made with the same mold this time no longer has holes like the previous one.
After this thing was successful, the people here followed suit and put some holes on the tops of the molds with a diameter of sixty, eighty, and one meter for ventilation to facilitate the air in the molds to escape.
…
There is already a simple stove in the open space outside the kitchen in Tieshan's residential area.
On top of the simple stove that was set up was an iron pot.
Among them, two one-meter iron pots stand out the most.
The flame was burning under the simple stove, and the water in the iron pot was steaming out.
Seeing this scene, the people around him couldn't help but feel happy in their hearts, and they couldn't help but express some emotion.
This iron pot is so fast!
The fire under the stove has only just started burning, but it has already reached this level!
I just don’t know what will happen when I use it for cooking.
In the primitive era, after such a long time, Han Cheng finally used an iron pot. At this time, he was really awesome. He was holding a copper spoon in one hand and gently pressing the chopping board on the side with the other hand.
On top, the whole person looks extremely chic.
My heart was enveloped by a relatively comfortable, yet concrete and indescribable emotion.
After standing here waiting for a while, I saw that the water in a pot was already boiling. I cut the meat that had been prepared into small cubes into the pot and poured it into the water.
I put a basin into it at once.
When the raw meat first started to pass through the water, the smell was not very pleasant, but Han Cheng didn't care.
After all, one cannot be too pretentious, especially in primitive times.
After standing here and waiting for a while, Han Chenggong saw that the fire was almost done, so he used a picket to fish out these small pieces of meat one by one.
As for the white foam and a little red sludge stained on the meat, don't pay attention to it, because it will need to be rinsed with water later.
After taking the shrunken and changed color of the meat out of the pot, Han Cheng did not scoop out the water and throw it away. Instead, he poured in another pot of meat and continued to blanch it.
After all, there were a lot of people present, so how could a mere pot of braised pork satisfy everyone in Tieshan Residential Area?
In fact, even if two pots are not enough, it can still ensure that everyone can eat a little.
The best way to make braised pork is naturally pork belly, but the amount of pork belly in a pig is limited and it is impossible to cut so much, so Han Cheng found some fat meat with lean meat and cut it in.
When this kind of meat is cooked, the texture is naturally not as good as pork belly, but the taste is still quite good.
So Han Cheng used a lot of this meat and mixed it with pork belly to cook.
After blanching, some of the helpers washed the pieces of meat, while Han Cheng scooped out the water that had passed through the meat and poured it out of the pot, and washed the pot with water two or three times.
Then he started cooking.
The iron pot heated up quickly, and Han Cheng poured a little oil into it. After it was hot, he used a spatula to slide it back and forth a few times to moisten the bottom of the pot with oil.
Then pour in a basin of washed braised pork and stir out some fat.
Looking at the pieces of meat squeaking in the iron pot and oil constantly coming out, Han Cheng couldn't help but feel how wonderful it was!
How many years has it been!
Now I finally saw this scene.
At this time, let alone waiting to eat the braised pork cooked in the iron pot, just looking at this scene made Han Cheng feel particularly happy and intoxicated. It was better than eating the braised pork in his mouth.
It’s all very comfortable…
The delicious smell of meat began to permeate the air. As soy sauce, wine syrup, ginger, and sugar were all added to the pot, and the fire under the pot continued to burn, the aroma became even stronger!
Many people couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
I don't know if it's an illusion, or it's actually the case, or maybe it's because Han Cheng said all the things about the delicious iron pot cooking before. Many people present felt that just the current fragrance, the smell.
It tastes better than the braised pork the tribe used to make...
Amid everyone's expectations, the braised pork cooked by Shen Zi, who rarely cooks nowadays, using the iron pot that is said to be very delicious, finally came out!
And what’s cooked is not just braised pork.
Han Cheng had already eaten too much stewed food, and when he thought of cooking in an iron pot, he felt as if he was scratching his head and scratching his liver. Now he finally owns an iron pot and has become a legendary pot owner.
I have been longing for the iron pot for a long time. Now that I suddenly get the iron pot, I can't hold it anymore. I want to put whatever I see in the pot, put it in oil, and stir-fry it.
Ichiban.
I can't control my hands at all!
It is precisely because of this that when the meal started, there were actually seven dishes!
