Dried plum vegetables, a specialty of Shaoxing, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, have crispy meat and thick fresh flavor, and are widely praised by diners. In particular, the plum dried vegetables and pork are the characteristic traditional dishes of Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, which are refreshing but not greasy, smooth and strong.

The dried vegetable cake is mainly made of dried plum vegetables, flour, pork, and sausages, supplemented by various seasonings and baked in the oven.

In fact, whether the taste of the dried vegetable cake is good or not, the most important thing is to fry the filling of the dried vegetable cake, and then dry and bake the flour, as long as the bread is just the right crisp, it is basically done.

Overall, the recipe for dried vegetable cakes is relatively simple, at least much simpler than donkey rolling and laughing.

At this time, Ye Han came to the side of the oven, then grabbed a handful of dried plum vegetables from the food bag, put it in front of his nose, sniffed it gently, and couldn't help but say, "Auntie, this dried vegetable should have been dried by yourself, right?"

The old lady nodded hurriedly and said, "I and my granddaughter did it together, and we do a lot of it every year." ”

"Well, it smells pretty authentic. After speaking, Ye Han opened a portable gas hood next to the oven.

Seeing Ye Han open the gas hood, the old lady hurriedly pointed to the already made filling and said, "Sir, there is still the filling here, you can use this." ”

Ye Han smiled slightly and said, "Auntie, if you want to keep improving the taste of dried vegetable cakes, there is a lot of knowledge in the method of filling. Auntie, don't worry, just watch quietly first, and you'll be fine. ”

Since Ye Han said so, although the old lady was a little distressed, she still nodded and watched Ye Han continue to take the next step.

Seeing that Ye Han put oil in the pot and didn't wear an apron, the old lady was afraid of getting Ye Han's clothes, so she hurriedly wanted to take off her apron, but before it was too late, the old lady magically discovered that her iron pot, which was originally very smoky, became a smokeless pot in Ye Han's hands?

Where did all the smoke go somehow?

Then, Ye Han put some minced meat in the oil pot, and after simply stir-frying, add some dried chili peppers, and then add the dried plum vegetables that have been made.

Because the umeboshi itself is salty, Ye Han no longer put salt, but put a little soy sauce and a few tablespoons of sugar.

Seeing that Ye Han put so much sugar, the old lady couldn't help but say again: "Sir, did you put a little too much sugar?"

Ye Han smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, aunt." After speaking, Ye Han began to knead the flour, and this time, Ye Han did not use the cool Tai Chi four-two dialing technique, but a very ordinary kneading technique, kneading the flour round, flattening, and then wrapping it in the minced plum vegetables that had been out of the pot, wrapped like steamed buns.

Up to this step, in the eyes of the old lady, except for Ye Han putting a little more sugar and the iron pot magically smokeless, the old lady did not find any other abnormalities.

It's just that Ye Han's next scene really stunned the old lady. Originally, the next step was to use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a thin cake, however, Ye Han opened his palm and gently pressed the dough, and the dough magically turned into a thin cake, which was even and thinner than the dry rolling out.

The old lady stared at Ye Han in surprise, completely unable to figure out how Ye Han did it.

Then, Ye Han put the dried vegetable cake on the edge of the oven. Originally, in this process, you need to turn the noodles every three minutes, a total of two times, and you can bake.

And Ye Han, just a minute after putting it in, took out the dried vegetable cake.

Then he took a paper bag, handed the dried vegetable cake to the little girl, and said, "Okay, let's try it." ”

"This ...... So fast, it's the fastest I've ever seen. The little girl stared at Ye Han in surprise and couldn't help but say.

Ye Han pursed his lips and smiled slightly, and said, "Try it." ”

The little girl subconsciously handed the dried vegetable cake to the old lady and said, "Grandma, you taste it first." ”

"Yuanyuan, you eat first. The old lady hurriedly pushed the dried vegetable cake in front of her and said.

So, the little girl named Yuanyuan broke the dried vegetable cake in half, but just when she wanted to hand the other half to the old lady, a magical scene happened again.

I saw that the dried vegetable cake that was supposed to be crispy and thin, after breaking it at this time, it was actually broken, as if cheese had been added to it, and a long line was pulled.

The old lady and Yuanyuan both stared at this scene in surprise, this dried vegetable cake was still so tender, it was definitely the first time to see it.

Subsequently, Yuanyuan and the old lady couldn't help but take a bite.

The mellow aroma of the dried plum vegetables and the meaty aroma of the minced meat, after one bite, the old lady and Yuanyuan instantly felt full of aftertaste, which made people have an endless aftertaste. At the same time, the most peculiar feeling is that the dried vegetable cake that should be crispy and broken as soon as you bite into it is like eating a wife's cake at this time, and it is particularly crispy at the beginning, but when you bite into the middle part of the dough, an unprecedented tender and tender strength comes, and a dried vegetable cake becomes extremely chewy!

It's amazing!

"Grandma, it's delicious, it's really delicious! It's even better than what Grandpa made back then!"

"Yes, it's even better than what my wife made back then!" At this time, the old lady was already a little tearful.

Her wife, who sold dried vegetable cakes for nearly 20 years before his death, has made a big breakthrough in his attainments in dried vegetable cakes for 20 years. At that time, when the old man was still alive, his dried vegetable cake shop had a very good business, and it could sell nearly one or two hundred dried vegetable cakes a day.

It's just that at that time, the price was low, and it only cost five cents a piece.

However, later, because of the investigation and expulsion of the chengguan, the old man unfortunately fell down in the process of being driven away by the chengguan, resulting in a stroke on the right side of his body, and died not long after.

Since then, without the old man's source of income, the life of the old lady and Yuanyuan has become more and more difficult.

"Auntie, can you tell me now how old your granddaughter is this year?"

"Eighteen, just an adult. The old lady said excitedly.

Hearing that it was eighteen, Ye Han couldn't help but smile and said, "That's great, old lady, tomorrow, you take your granddaughter to the food city next to Shanghai Port Film and Television City to find me, and I will let you sell dried vegetable cakes there, okay?"

"Ah, food city?" Yuanyuan is eighteen years old after all, and when she heard Ye Han say this, she suddenly realized Ye Han's identity, and then said excitedly: "You, are you the Ye boss of Nuonuo's snack shop?"

Ye Han replied with a smile: "Yes." Your name is Yuanyuan, right?"

"Mmmm!" Seeing Ye Han nodding, Yuanyuan was suddenly excited, holding her face that was a little dry in the cold wind, and then took the old lady's hand and said excitedly: "Grandma, he is now the very famous chef Boss Ye! No wonder the dried vegetable cakes can be so delicious! It turns out that we met Boss Ye!"

After all, the old lady was old and didn't know what her granddaughter said, but when she saw Yuanyuan so excited, she also smiled gratefully: "Sir, thank you, you are a good person, a good person." After speaking, the old lady was about to bow to Ye Han, but fortunately, she was stopped by Ye Han in time.

"Yuanyuan, then you bring the old lady over tomorrow, I just haven't pushed a new product for a while, this time it's a new product, just push the dry vegetable cake." Of course, there is a premise, and that is that you have to be my apprentice. ”

In fact, in Ye Han's mind, Yang Ziming is not his real apprentice, he can only be regarded as a partner.

And this Yuanyuan, in Ye Han's mind, is an apprentice in the true sense.

"Ah?!" Yuan Yuan was so excited that she couldn't react at all, covering her face and staring at Ye Han in a daze.

"Tomorrow morning at half past ten, show up on time. Ye Han finished with a smile and prepared to leave.

However, at this time, several uniformed chengguans, out of place, appeared.

Seeing the chengguan, the old lady and Yuanyuan subconsciously showed panic on the ground, pushing the car and wanting to leave, but they were stopped by Ye Han.

Looking at these hunched and unenergetic city managers, the corners of Ye Han's mouth couldn't help but reveal a wicked smile.
