Chapter 472: Shui Shui Tender (Thanks to Runde for the Reward)
Gu Fanxin took a few sips and felt good. The fastest update, just now they witnessed the formation of the production of soy milk.
So how is tofu made?
Originally, the soybeans were soaked in water first, swelled and softened, and then ground by hand with a stone mill.
The ground beans are also put into a pot to cook, and the stone mill is connected with a bucket, and the ground soy milk flows inside.
Grind into soy milk in a stone grinding disc, pour the ground soy milk into gauze, knead the soy milk into the pot, and the last thing left in it is the bean dregs that can't be kneaded.
Strain the okara with gauze and bring to a boil in a large pot. Cook the raw soy milk on the lower shelf.
At this time, the protein particles in the soybeans are surrounded by water and keep moving, as if dancing a collective dance in the pot, and they cannot be gathered together, forming a "colloidal" solution.
To turn the colloidal solution into tofu, it is necessary to spot the brine.
Salt brine or gypsum is used for point brine, salt brine mainly contains magnesium chloride, gypsum is calcium sulfate, they can make the dispersed protein particles quickly gather together, and then it becomes the tofu brain of white flowers.
"It's useless to be in a hurry with this thing, you can only rely on people to come little by little. Sister-in-law Black Bean smiled and explained to them again.
Then she scooped the soy milk out, put out the fire and put aside the wooden mold for making tofu, spread the washed white gauze in the wooden mold, and then add some appropriate amount of brine or gypsum powder to the soy milk in the pot, and stir it well.
If you eat bean curd at this time, scoop the soy milk into a mold covered with gauze, wrap it in gauze, and then press down the wooden board on it, press it for fifteen to twenty minutes, and a plate of tofu will be good.
The black bean sister-in-law enthusiastically demonstrated to them, and Gu Fanxin also took a scoop and learned to add water to the stone mill.
Although it was the first time they met, the sister-in-law of Black Bean still liked this army family very much.
A fairy-like character is still a college student, and he doesn't know the place, so he humbly asks for advice from himself, the 'big boss', unlike some people who go to school for a few days and have their tails cocked to the sky.
And yesterday's scene was so grand that it made her panic hot. Eight sedan chairs were carried, or the groom rode a high-headed horse to marry in person.
(In ancient times, people attached great importance to personal greeting, and if they did not marry through the gift of personal welcome, it was considered unruly and would be ridiculed by the world.)
At that time, the kiss was seen as the basis for whether the relationship between husband and wife was fully established.
If the husband dies without welcoming her, the woman can remarry. However, once the husband dies after the kiss is held, according to the rules of etiquette, the bride can only accept her fate and end up with it. )
Black Bean and Black Bean's sister-in-law's biggest regret is that they didn't read any books. Seeing students and college students is nothing short of idolatry.
Heidou's sister-in-law has many brothers and sisters, and the girl has no chance to go to school, and Heidou is an only child who can study, but she can't read it because she is greedy for fun.
Later, when I got older, I realized that I regretted it, but I had already missed the golden age and wasted the opportunity to study.
Nowadays, I feel more and more that knowledge is very important, and no culture is a hard injury. Sometimes it's really a loss.
I carry the burden and go to the street to sell tofu, remove the capital, and gypsum powder or brine money, so that I can only earn a few dozen yuan a day.
Fortunately, the sister-in-law of black beans can also do it, and the two of them get up to grind tofu at about three o'clock in the morning before dawn every day, and finally wait for the busy time to be almost four or five o'clock in the morning.
Then pick it up and sell it at the street corner, so that others can see it when they come out early in the morning to buy vegetables, and the tofu is easy to sell.
The black bean sister-in-law was busy in one go, and after the tofu was formed, she cleaned up the house almost, and then quickly cut two pieces of tofu with a knife and put them aside in a basin.
The freshly cooked tofu looks tender and tender, making people feel the urge to eat it.
The price of selling tofu is also fair, two cents a piece of tofu, if you exchange beans for two pieces of tofu for a pound of soybeans, it is still cheaper to buy with money, but some people do not have enough money, so they use beans to exchange.
People who exchange beans think that this is more cost-effective than buying them with money, and they can also save some money. But the black bean sister-in-law knew in her heart that she could earn a few more cents in this way.
At first, I walked the streets and sold tofu, but after a long time, I knew that it was sold, and I was familiar with it.
As soon as I heard that the tofu seller lived in Haijia Village here, I could buy it at home if I wanted to eat tofu in the future, and people who lived nearby also found it convenient.
Some people exchange beans for two pieces of tofu, sometimes they estimate that they are almost the same, and they don't need to weigh them, they estimate and collect them, and the two small bowls are almost a pound of soybeans on the top.
This tofu business can be sold for a morning, and two people can do it.
Get up early and work late at night, so that you can earn more than 20 yuan a day, and you will earn a few hundred yuan a month, and if you remove the capital, this is at least 200 yuan, but it is really top those regular workers with low wages.
The leftover tofu residue at home is reluctant to be thrown away, and after being pressed into bean cakes, you can put some cabbage to make soup and eat.
You can also pour some oil in the pot, mix the bean dregs with some salt and chopped green onions and fry them in the pan, and fry them into browned cakes on both sides, which are also quite fragrant.
"I made it myself, you can taste it, if you like it, come back to me next time, and I'll make more for you. ”
Gu Fanxin and Comrade Navy tasted a piece and only said it was delicious.
"I don't put a lot of oil here, it's not very tasty, if I put more oil and fry it, it will taste better. ”
Seeing that the college students and the navy comrades did not dislike it, and praised it, both of them were very happy.
"Sister-in-law Black Bean, how is your tofu shop business?"
Listening to the black bean sister-in-law only talking about tofu and soy milk, but not listening to the black bean sister-in-law mention Qianzhang and dried tofu, Gu Fanxin was a little puzzled.
There are only two kinds of tofu and soy milk, and the soy milk is still drunk by the two of them and not sold out, so why don't they make more varieties to sell?
Isn't it too simple to do tofu business in this way? Wouldn't they be able to make dried tofu?
Thinking about it, I said the doubts in my heart.
The black bean sister-in-law smiled: "It's not that you can't do it, as long as you press the tofu tightly, squeeze it dry and remove some water, it will become dried tofu." ”
Several people suddenly realized.
It turns out that soy milk, tofu brain, tofu, and dried tofu are all legume proteins, but they contain more or less water.
"Then why don't you make more varieties to sell?"
It is said that the goods are sold in a mountain, and the more varieties there are, the more popular they are?
"Dried tofu is too much trouble, and it costs beans. The beans used must be twice as large as the tofu. ”
"We sold it at the beginning, but it didn't sell as well as tofu. Big Brother Black Bean also interjected next to him.
With the current economic capacity, the countryside is still too backward.
Many people think that tofu is more affordable, and dried tofu is a bit expensive.
