is about to return home, and I still love the simple and hearty family of three. Raindrops began to fall in the sky in Anhui, and the warm sun on the day of the winter solstice seemed to remind me that the weather would not be so pleasant during the Chinese New Year. There's a saying: "A sunny winter is a bad year", so the rain isn't unexpected, but hopefully it won't cool down too quickly and the snowflakes won't cover the ground. During the Chinese New Year, it is really inconvenient to be frozen like ice cubes.
In the past few days, the New Year's goods have almost been prepared, the children's shoes have been delivered one after another, and we have begun to pack up and prepare for the journey back to our hometown. When I was shopping for groceries, I found that the small shops on the side of the road were closed. The year is coming to an end, and everyone has experienced a lot of twists and turns. Coupled with the fact that the weather is not good for a while, perhaps everyone is in a hurry to go back to their hometown in advance to enjoy a warm reunion.
Now when buying vegetables in the market, everyone is busy preparing New Year's goods, such as pork, beef, etc., are all moved home by ten catties. I asked, and it turned out that it was for the preparation of ingredients, and to prepare delicacies such as braised vegetables and fried meat balls. I also have these plans, but I don't have the opportunity to do them until I return to my hometown. I still keep three meals a day, simple home-cooked food, and the family is actually quite satisfied with what they eat.
Roasted pork with white radish is one of my favorite dishes. The white radish is really delicious now, but you have to be careful, sometimes the ones you buy may be hollow. Stir-fry the pork until the oil changes color, then pour the white radish into it and fry until it tastes, add some light soy sauce and oyster sauce, simmer in an appropriate amount of boiling water, and then add salt to enhance the flavor after the white radish is soft and rotten, if there is garlic, add some, if not, you can also sprinkle some chives, and then you can get out of the pot.
Stir-fried zucchini is another simple yet delicious dish. Peel and slice the zucchini, stir-fry in the pan until softened, add some sugar and lard, stir-fry evenly and add salt to enhance the flavor, then you can get out of the pot. The child usually likes to use light soy sauce, but she prefers a light taste for this dish, so a little salt and a little sugar will suffice.
Before returning to your hometown, enjoy a few days of light life. Next, you may not be able to control the pursuit of food. In general, the Chinese New Year is all about being simple and happy, eating and drinking well, and sharing happy times with family and friends. But what do you think is the most anticipated thing about the Chinese New Year?
