Chapter 633: The Little Girl Who Learned to Make Dumplings (1/4)
After the noodles were reconciled, Yang Yi began to make dumplings.
With the previous experience of kneading dough, Xixi is now very active, watching her father pinch the dough and roll out a dumpling skin, and then fill the dumpling filling and make dumplings with her little aunt, the little girl finally couldn't help it.
"Baba, I'm going to make dumplings too. Xi Xi propped herself on the table and looked at her father eagerly and said.
Yang Yi was also happy to let his daughter participate in the labor of the festival, he washed his hands, first helped Xixi roll up her sleeves, and then gave her a dumpling wrapper.
"You come by yourself. Yang Yi wants to see how her daughter's observation and comprehension skills are, and how much she can learn just by watching from the side.
However, this request was not effective at first, and the little girl was a little dependent on her father, and she pouted her little mouth and said sullenly, "Baba, but, but I don't know how to! ”
"Grandma is here to teach you!" but Dong Yue, who was making pumpkin pie next to her, couldn't sit still, she smiled and reached out to take a dumpling wrapper and showed it to Xixi, "Look at grandma like this, put the skin in the palm of your hand, put a little stuffing in the middle, pinch the skin like this, wrap it up......"
"Got it?" Dong Yue'e put the wrapped dumplings on the plate and said to Xixi.
The little girl nodded as if she didn't understand, her expression was actually a little confused.
Yang Yi looked at her funny, his hand movements did not stop, and he said softly: "It's okay, you try it first, if you can't do it, Dad will teach you later." ”
Xixi finally started to make dumplings by herself, she did the same, spread the dumpling skin flat in the palm of her left hand, but the little girl's hand was a little slender, and the big dumpling skin covered her little hand at once.
Then making the dumpling filling, Yang Yi had already pushed a large plate of dumpling filling in front of her, and the little girl easily picked up the small spoon and dug up a piece of meat filling.
Belch...... It seems a little less!
Is this a delicate girl? Dumplings can only be made with a little bit, less than a fingernail filling?
Yang Yi didn't speak, just smiled and watched her daughter make her first dumpling with her own hands.
It seems that Xi Xi is still a little talented in this regard, the first time she made dumplings, she actually kneaded the dumpling skin by herself, although there were no wrinkles, and the dumplings were also pinched into the shape of a flattened rugby, but anyway, Xi Xi still succeeded in making a dumpling!
"Great! Dad thinks you've done a good job of making dumplings for the first time!" Yang Yi smiled and applauded Xixi, and the others applauded.
Xi Xi smiled happily, and under her father's instructions, she put her first dumpling on the large plate of the steamer with a sense of accomplishment.
"Keep up the good work, let's try it and put a little more dumpling filling!" Yang Yi handed a dumpling wrapper to the little girl, and guided softly.
This time, Yang Yi wants to really teach Xixi how to wrap a dumpling.
Xixi followed her father's instructions and put more dumpling filling.
But it's still too little!
"A little more. Yang Yi said to Xixi helplessly, "It's too little, the dumplings are not delicious." ”
This time it's too much.
Yang Yi had to help her put it back with a small spoon.
"Okay, now start pinching the dumpling skin, like just now, fold it in half first, and then watch Dad like this, along the side, pinch out the wrinkles of the dumplings little by little, look, isn't this a little better?" Yang Yi slowly demonstrated to his daughter.
Yang Huan was also watching Xi Xixue, but she didn't have much patience, after looking at it for a while, she withdrew her eyes, wrapped the dumplings by herself, there was no dumpling skin, she took a rolling pin, and rolled the dumpling skin herself.
Xixi didn't do well enough at first, pinched the wrinkles crookedly, and revealed a small opening, probably because she filled a little too much dumpling filling, and she couldn't control it.
Yang Yi stretched out his hand and taught her how to pinch the remaining hole back.
"It's great, this time it's much better than the first one, right?" Yang Yi motioned for her to put the dumplings back and praised with a smile.
"Hee-hee!" the little girl was overjoyed.
However, the third dumpling, Xixi is a little floating, the little girl when her father is rolling the dumpling skin, she comes to wrap it herself, but when she fills the dumpling filling, she digs a big spoonful, and the dumpling skin is almost covered!
"So many?" Yang Yi was a little surprised when he saw it.
Xi Xi pouted and said in embarrassment: "Baba, I can't wrap it...... What should I do?"
"This is called not being greedy!" Yang Yi said with a smile, in fact, he could dig a little dumpling back like just now, but the edge of the dumpling skin was stained with some juice from the dumpling filling, and it was estimated that it was not sticky enough.
But Yang Yi still has a way to remedy it! I saw him smile and bring another dumpling wrapper and teach Xixi: "Come, Dad will teach you to make giant dumplings!"
The two dumpling skins were put together and began to pinch the lace, and Xixi also helped her father pinch a little.
After the success, Xixi was overjoyed to see this big dumpling and said, "Baba, this is like the sun, let's call it the little sun, okay?"
"Of course you can!" Yang Yi laughed.
may be interested in playing tricks, Yang Yi also wrapped a few fancy steamed dumplings for his daughter on the spot, such as butterfly-shaped dumplings, five-petal flower dumplings, and ingot-shaped dumplings......
Every novel dumpling aroused Xixi's exclamation and admiration, and the little girl said to her father happily: "Baba, put it here, put it here!"
She was going to put these strange-shaped dumplings next to her dumplings.
"Xixi, you have to make a few more dumplings, and your mother and grandparents will try your handiwork. Murphy smiled slightly.
Yang Chonggui was demolishing the stage, he waved his hand and said happily: "Grandpa doesn't need to eat, don't be tired of little Yang Xi." ”
However, by noon, Yang Yi steamed the dumplings out and asked Xixi to give Yang Chonggui a dumpling that she had wrapped herself.
Of course, Xixi also likes her dumplings very much, although her father told her that she can't eat too much, but the first three dumplings, including the big "little sun", were all sandwiched by her father, and she also asked her father to make butter-shaped dumplings.
"This is a skinny dumpling, this is a fat dumpling, this is a little sun, this is a little butterfly!" Xi Xi looked at these dumplings and introduced them to her father excitedly.
It's as if she wasn't going to eat, but to appreciate the art!
"Pumpkin pie is here, Xixi, come and try the pumpkin pie made by grandma!" Dong Yue'e was not to be outdone, she couldn't wait to bring out the pumpkin pie she had fried, and said with a smile.
This golden and enticing pumpkin pie also exudes an alluring fragrance that is irresistible at first glance!
When Xixi saw it, she screamed "wow", she didn't expect that the pumpkin pie with breadcrumbs before would look so good when it was ready!
The little girl couldn't wait to catch it.
But soon, she screamed and retracted her hand, a little hot.
"It's not hot, this should be eaten while it's hot!" Yang Huan was already holding one, and while snorting hot, his mouth was shaking, as if he was turning over the pumpkin pie, so that the hot pumpkin pie would not burn his tongue, and said in a drumming voice.
The little girl looked at the little aunt enviously, and also looked at the grandparents, uncles and aunts, and saw how they ate sweetly.
Yang Yi picked up two slices of steamed dumplings on oiled paper, stacked them, wrapped a pumpkin pie, handed it to Murphy next to him, and then wrapped another one and handed it to Xixi.
"It's not hot now, is it?" Yang Yi asked his daughter with a smile.
"It's not hot!" Xixi said happily holding the pumpkin pie, smelling the tempting fragrance, and a little intoxicated.
"But you still have to eat slowly, otherwise it will burn your mouth, so you try to take a small bite first. Yang Yi patiently took care of his daughter.
Xixi followed what her father said, and took a small bite gently, which was a little hot, but because of the small bite, it was much colder in her mouth.
"Delicious!" Although it was only a small bite, the crispy crust of the pumpkin pie, the sweetness of the inside, and the mellow aroma suddenly made Xixi's big obsidian-like eyes light up.
"It's a pity that my grandmother can't eat the pumpkin pie made by my grandmother, otherwise, he must love it too. Dong Yue'e saw that Xixi liked it very much, she couldn't smile from ear to ear, but when she saw Xiao Yu sleeping soundly in Murphy's arms, she still said regretfully.
"Mom, when he grows a little older, you can still do it for him!" Murphy said with a smile.
At this time, Yang Huan poked Yang Yi and asked in a low voice, "Big brother, did you leave me a little pumpkin pie?"
She is still thinking about her best friend Ding Xiang!
But Yang Huan didn't know that Ding Xiang was not alone today.
