Lin Yuexin was from the city and had never seen a roast chicken before, so she was quite curious about Xu Zhengyang's method.
Xu Zhengyang was focused on building the kiln. He said,""This is called kiln chicken! Do you know about kiln chickens?"
Lin Yuexin shook her head.
"Kiln chicken is a delicious and famous Hakka dish. It is popular in Guangdong and Guangxi. The cooking method was similar to Salt Baked Chicken, which was one of the famous "farmhouse" dishes. It looked similar to beggar's chicken, but it was actually different. Personally, I think it's even more delicious than beggar's chicken!”
"The method is to slaughter and wash the chicken, then hollow out the abdominal cavity and stuff it with condiments. The chicken body is covered with refined salt inside and outside, then wrapped tightly with tin foil. Build a clay kiln, then use fire to burn the clay until the clay on the kiln turns red. After placing the wrapped chicken into the kiln, collapse the kiln and cover the kiln with a thick layer of soil or sand to prevent the heat from escaping.”
Xu Zhengyang explained to Lin Yuexin seriously about the clay kiln chicken as he built the kiln.
"Due to the instantaneous high temperature heating and the tin foil wrapping, the nutritional value of the chicken is preserved to the greatest extent. Compared to roast chicken, the clay kiln chicken is undoubtedly more in line with the standards of a healthy diet. During the entire cooking process, the chicken does not come into contact with the open fire, so it is less greasy.”
"I see!" Lin Yuexin finally understood why Xu Zhengyang was building the clay furnace. It was for the kiln chicken!
Listening to Xu Zhengyang's words about the roast chicken, Lin Yuexin looked forward to it even more. She couldn't help but look at the chicken placed next to her and said coldly,""Then…Zhengyang, is this chicken enough for us to eat?”
Uh…This question really stumped Xu Zhengyang.
After the chicken was cleaned, there were about three catties left.
Xu Zhengyang looked up at Lin Yuexin and said with a chuckle,"I didn't expect you to be such a foodie!”
"Hahaha, of course I won't let go of delicious food!”Lin Yuexin smiled brightly.
Building a kiln was a technical job, and it was also very particular about patience.
Xu Zhengyang used the mud blocks to build the kiln layer by layer. The higher he went, the smaller the mud blocks became. Gradually, he built a pyramid-shaped top kiln. The entire mud kiln was basically completed.
"Awesome, awesome!" Lin Yuexin looked at the clay kiln that had just been set up and was amazed. She quickly took out her phone and took photos.
Although this was a 1,000 yuan phone, it was considered an advanced phone in Taoyuan Village. After all, many people in the village didn't have a phone. Even if they did, they would only have old phones or old and worn out Nobel phones.
"Next is to start a fire and burn the kiln, right?”Lin Yuexin looked at the firewood that had been prepared beside her and said,"Is this firewood enough?"
"It's almost done!" Xu Zhengyang said as he started to burn the kiln.
The process of burning the kiln was relatively simple, but he could not be careless.
After all, if the clay kiln was not very stable, he could not add too much firewood. Otherwise, it would explode or knock over the entire clay kiln, and it would be a waste of effort.
Sizzle…Huff…
In the mud kiln, the firewood was burning fiercely, and the bright flames swayed.
Xu Zhengyang and Lin Yuexin sat beside the clay kiln and chatted as they burned the kiln.
As time passed, the outer layer of the mud in the kiln had turned pitch-black, while the inner layer was burning red. The red mud was very eye-catching.
Such a scene was truly a peaceful time.
A gentle breeze blew, and Lin Yuexin's beautiful hair fluttered, adding to her charm.
"Zhengyang, let's take a photo together?" Lin Yuexin picked up her phone, adjusted the camera to the front, and moved closer to Xu Zhengyang.
To be honest, this was Xu Zhengyang's first time taking a photo alone with the opposite sex.
The two of them were close to each other, their shoulders leaning against each other. They faced the camera, and next to them was a red-hot mud kiln.
"Yay!" Lin Yuexin raised her hand and smiled.
Xu Zhengyang smiled. His face was covered in dirt, but it looked very real, showing a different kind of masculine charm.
Kacha!
As Lin Yuexin pressed the photo button, a photo was left on her phone.
"Come, come, let's take a few more photos!”Lin Yuexin said as she pulled Xu Zhengyang to take photos.
The photo taken beside the mud kiln, although it was not a grand background, the photo was exceptionally beautiful.
As time passed, the entire clay kiln changed from top to bottom. The mud inside was burning red, and the mud outside was also slightly red.
Xu Zhengyang looked at the situation and said,"It's almost cooked enough. You can put this chicken in.”
