As the pressure of life increases, many young people leave their hometowns to work in cities with a slightly more developed economy. Although they have eaten all kinds of delicious food in the process, what they miss most in their hearts is the home-cooked food in their hometown. , that is to say, it is the food cooked by my mother. What I want to tell you today is a Shandong boy. He rarely goes home after graduating from college. This time he came back to visit his grandma. Grandma worked for 5 hours and cooked several dishes for him. The boy was satisfied with what he had eaten, but when he arrived, Finally, grandma told him that she lacked a granddaughter-in-law.
It seems that this dish made by grandma is a kind of Hongmen Banquet. It has the meaning of urging his grandson to find a wife quickly. Although grandma’s urging to get married makes the boy a little embarrassed, he is still shameless in order to be able to eat the delicious food cooked by grandma. After staying at grandma's house for many days, the vegetables he ate were all grown in grandma's small vegetable garden. The taste was incomparable to the vegetables bought from the vegetable market outside, so his appetite was greatly satisfied here these days.
When he left, he also called his parents and asked them to come home often, because the delicacies eaten outside were not as delicious as the dishes cooked in the earthen pots and stoves at grandma's home. And he also told his parents in detail, which dishes his grandma cooked for him, and how did he feel about eating them?
Let’s look at the first dish first. This dish is garlic eggplant . All the long eggplants are used. You only need to divide the long eggplants into 4 pieces and put them on the steamer to steam until cooked. Set it aside for later use, and the sauce is relatively simple. It just contains some garlic, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Although the ingredients are very simple, this garlic eggplant dish is really delicious. The fragrance of the eggplant and the spicy taste of garlic are in your mouth, and the satisfaction you feel when you eat it is unmatched by any kind of food. .
The second dish was fried prawns, but grandma put a lot of things in when frying the prawns. In addition to onions, ginger and garlic, she also added dried red peppers, Sichuan peppercorns, perilla leaves. This is the first time for many people to see this method, but it tastes very good, much better than the spicy shrimp fried with Qixian bean paste in restaurants. After talking about the dishes, let’s talk about the staple food. Today’s staple food is steamed. The rice is just steamed in the rice pot. The potatoes and rice are stirred together when eating. This way of eating is also used in many northern snacks. My partner has never seen it, but it tastes really delicious, much better than eating rice alone.
Although grandma only prepared two dishes to entertain her eldest grandson, these two dishes are very tough in rural areas. The most important thing is that they are very down-to-earth and the taste of these dishes is also very good. , making those who have eaten in restaurants in the city unable to stop after one bite. But having said that, grandma rewarded her grandson's appetite with the carefully prepared meals in the hope that he would bring back a grandson-in-law for her at some point.
