Chapter 734: Delicious Zongzi
Seeing that the Dragon Boat Festival is coming, although the conditions in the countryside are poor, He Yuhan still wants to wrap some zongzi for his family.
Living in the countryside in this era, there are no entertainment activities, He Yuhan also wants to enrich life and let children experience the joy of traditional festivals.
She hopes that the children's childhood will be richer and that they will remember most of them happily in the future.
She and Han Yixian took an excuse to go to the town and brought back a lot of ingredients, and then they and Han Yixian took local materials to the place where the reeds grew by the river and picked a lot of reed leaves, and washed the reed leaves at home for later use.
He Yuhan is going to make a few more flavors of zongzi this time, and he will send some to the Gao family at that time.
This time, He Yuhan is going to make red date dumplings, bean paste dumplings, egg yolk meat dumplings, eight-treasure dumplings and assorted rice dumplings.
Because the egg yolk is relatively small, the old people also think it is too luxurious, and He Yuhan is going to make only a dozen egg yolk meat dumplings, so that everyone can try it.
There are more ingredients such as red dates and red beans, and she plans to make more red date dumplings, bean paste dumplings and eight-treasure dumplings.
Red dates and red beans have always been available at home, and He Yuhan made the red bean paste first. He Yuhan, who boiled out the red bean paste with red beans, put some osmanthus in it, in addition to the fragrance of red beans, there is also the fragrance of osmanthus.
When the red bean paste was ready, the children ate more than half a bowl each. If Wen Jinyu hadn't stopped her, it is estimated that she wouldn't even eat.
He Yuhan wants to wrap several kinds of beans in the eight-treasure dumplings, as well as red dates, raisins, etc.
The ingredients in the assorted rice dumplings are also very rich, He Yuhan prepared diced pheasant meat, diced wild boar, diced mushrooms, diced bamboo shoots, etc.
And egg yolk meat dumplings are a combination of salted egg yolk and pork belly.
After soaking the glutinous rice and preparing various materials, He Yuhan and his mother-in-law made zongzi on the dining table together.
Gu Qishen looked at such a rich material next to him and said, "Don't say that the zongzi are not cooked yet, just look at these ingredients and already drool." ”
Han Yixian said: "Then you can't eat more when it's cooked, don't forget that your stomach still has to continue to nourish it." ”
Gu Qishen couldn't eat it happily when he heard it, and said, "No, I feel that my stomach is good now." Yuhan, can I eat a few more zongzi?"
He Yuhan said with a smile: "Your stomach problem is almost better, but you should also pay attention to it, but it's okay to eat a few zongzi." You can try each of them. But don't eat too much. ”
He Yuhan spoke, and Gu Qishen knew that he couldn't eat too much. But today is the Dragon Boat Festival, and He Yuhan wants to make more delicious than just zongzi, but also others, and he can eat them now.
Han Yixian also learned to make zongzi from He Yuhan before, although the wrapping is not very good-looking, but it can also be formed, at least it will not leak rice.
Because there are too many zongzi to wrap, this time Han Yixian also made zongzi with his own hands.
Gu Qishen saw that Han Yi did it first, and it didn't feel difficult, so he washed his hands and wanted to help make zongzi.
Han Yi waited to see the joke first, and said: "Do you know how to wrap zongzi? This zongzi has to be tightly wrapped, otherwise it will either fall apart or leak rice, don't make the zongzi you wrap out and become rice soup when the time comes." ”
Gu Qishen said: "I just don't want to follow along." Aunt Wen, you teach me, I can't let Yixian laugh at me. ”
Wen Jinyu smiled: "No problem, you watch my movements and follow along." This pack of zongzi is also very easy, you can wrap a few more.
However, if you want the bag to look good, you need technology. You see the rain is wrapped, it's tight and good-looking, almost the same. ”
Gu Qishen watched He Yuhan's movements for a long time, and also tried to wrap a zongzi.
I don't know if it's because his hands are clumsy or what, when he wraps the zongzi, his hands don't seem to listen to his own call, and his imagination is very good, but the real thing that comes out is twisted and crooked, and the white glutinous rice is exposed, but it makes Han Yi laugh for a long time.
However, Gu Qishen was not discouraged, and after a few exercises, he could also wrap it into a rice dumpling without leaking rice. Although the shape is a bit ugly, it can be regarded as a success.
With qualified results, Gu Qishen is even more energetic, and the more he will be in the future, the better.
Gu Qishen took the best-looking zongzi he wrapped and compared it with Han Yixian's and said, "Mine is no worse than yours." This is the first time I've made zongzi. ”
He Yuhan said with a smile: "Brother Gu is indeed a fast learner, Brother Yi didn't make zongzi so well when he learned to make zongzi with me." ”
Gu Qishen got He Yuhan's compliment, glanced at Han Yixian proudly, and said, "Yixian, I'm better than you now, how about it, take it?"
Han Yi pouted first and said, "Isn't it just that the zongzi wrap looks better." I can cook, will you? I guess you'll be heating up right now.
At the beginning, I didn't know who couldn't even make porridge, and Huayang was hungry and skinny. ”
Gu Qishen thought that the scene in City C was really embarrassing, and immediately said without admitting defeat: "Aunt Wen, Yuhan, I will have time in the future, I want to learn cooking from you, and let my son eat the food I cook in the future." ”
He Yuhan and Wen Jinyu wrapped zongzi and listened to Gu Qishen and Han Yixian arguing, both of them were happy.
He Yuhan said with a smile: "Brother Gu can learn cooking whenever he wants." ”
A few people talked and laughed and wrapped two large pots of zongzi of various flavors, and then put them in a large pot to cook.
As time passed, a fragrance of zongzi leaves wafted out, and then the fragrance gradually mixed with a fresh fragrance, which made people drool when they smelled the smell.
The children were attracted by the fragrance and played in the yard, and while playing, they also looked at the direction of the kitchen from time to time, looking forward to the early release of the zongzi.
Gu Qishen and Han Yixian were also sitting in the courtyard, and the two of them were playing chess.
Gu Qi smelled the aroma in the air and said, "It's so fragrant." I also have a lot to do with that. ”
Han Yixian found that since Gu Qishen left his original job and came to Beili Village, he felt a little free of himself, and the originally calm and cold person has now become much more cheerful. It makes people feel that his mentality is younger.
He snapped and ate Gu Qishen and said, "It tastes good, that's Yuhan's credit, and it has nothing to do with you, okay." ”
Gu Qishen said with a smile: "I think cooking is also quite fun, I am ready to study and study." In the future, I will also allow you to eat the food I cooked. ”
Han Yi first ate another cannon from Gu Qishen and said, "Then you have to work hard, we are all waiting to taste your craftsmanship." ”
After everyone's long wait, the zongzi are finally out of the pot.
Everyone can't wait to try it.
Wen Jinyu first opened a bean paste zongzi, the bean paste is very delicious when eaten alone, not to mention that now with the soft glutinous rice and the fragrance of the dumpling leaves, the glutinous rice absorbs the sweetness of the red bean paste, and it tastes really delicious.
The same is true for red jujube dumplings, where the flavors of jujubes, glutinous rice and zongzi leaves are blended, and those with a sweet tooth will definitely like it. Especially the kids.
Gay men have a bad tooth for sweets. The first thing they ate was egg yolk meat dumplings and assorted rice dumplings.
The egg yolk meat dumplings are soft and glutinous, and the combination of egg yolk and pork belly is so delicious that people want to swallow their tongues.
Assorted rice dumplings are even more the same. Gay men are also favorites.
Eating delicious zongzi and watching his son eat zongzi next to him, Gu Qishen suddenly felt very happy.
With his son and friends by his side, and being able to eat such delicious food, what is he not satisfied with?
