"Ruonan, you wait for me, I'll go buy some mung bean cake on the other side!" Liu Mang beckoned. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Go ahead, I'll make you these two bowls of 'Wine Brewed Lantern Festival' first. The proprietress took the money from Liu Mang's hand.

Holding the joy of solving the mystery, Liu Mang hurried out, but as soon as he went out, he bumped into someone.

"Xiao Wu, are you here to buy Lantern Festival?

"Boss, are you and Sister Ruonan eating here? It's strange! The old man who sells mung bean cakes over there actually doesn't just sell them, but he says that he wants to buy some Lantern Festival first. ”

"Really, it's the same here, you want me to go to the other door and buy some mung bean cake to eat!"

"Ahh

He leaned over to Liu Mang's side and lowered his voice: "I see that the old man is also a person, and the proprietress here is also a person, tsk...... It's full of adultery!"

"Bad water in your head! When will you be serious?"

Liu Mang couldn't help but slap his palm lightly on the five-eyed fat head, and his eyes glared: "Don't buy your Lantern Festival yet!"

"Okay!" Five-eyed walked duck steps and shook to the counter selling Lantern Festival: "Boss, come to twenty Lantern Festivals!

Liu Mang patted his head speechlessly, walked out, and prepared to buy two mung bean cakes at the opposite door.

The small shops on this side of the street have the same layout as the small shops selling Lantern Festival, with a hall connected to an open kitchen. The decoration is similar, the same plastic stools, round tables.

The seller of mung bean cakes was a middle-aged man, probably in his fifties and nearly sixty, wearing a snow-white chef's suit, and his hair was meticulously combed. It seems that when you are young, you should not look bad.

"Brother Liu Mang!" Seeing Liu Mang come in, Guan Xiaomeng greeted.

"You guys are waiting here, Xiao Wu will be back soon!" Liu Mang was a little amused in his heart, obviously the two groups of people were together, but because of this rule, they had to run on both sides.

"Boss, come with two mung bean cakes, the proprietress opposite called me. Liu Mang handed over twenty yuan.

The boss behind the counter squinted his eyes and glanced at Liu Mang: "Boss, what does the boss lady on the other side look like?"

"Uh......" Liu Mang was stunned when he was asked, and he only made a circle with his hands: "It's very beautiful!"

"Haha! The young man is very discerning! I'll give you a discount!" the boss smiled and showed a mouthful of yellow teeth, and retrieved Liu Mang's two steel hammers.

"Boss, since you know each other, why don't you open the stores together? It also saves diners from running back and forth on both sides?" Liu Mang couldn't help but ask strangely.

"What do young people know? Running too much is not good for your health, and can it also promote digestion?" said the boss, blowing his beard and glaring.

"Okay, okay. Liu Mang touched his nose stupidly and took the mung bean cake handed by the boss.

The mung bean cake sold by this boss is very traditional, and it is not even packaged in a normal plastic bag. Instead, it is carefully wrapped in oiled paper into a boxy shape and then tied with straw.

"Liu Mang, have you bought it back? How is the boss? Is it a handsome old man?" Li Ruonan, who was waiting on the table, the fire of gossip was burning.

"Well, I guess I was handsome when I was young. Liu Mang replied.

On the table, the proprietress 'Wine-brewed Lantern Festival' has been prepared and served in a small blue and white bowl.

The Lantern Festival sold by her family is different from the Lantern Festival that is often eaten during festivals, and it is a little smaller, which is the thickness of a thumb.

In the bowl, the golden crushed eggs and the boiled soft and glutinous Lantern Festival, combined with the thick glutinous rice sweet wine, shine and sell very well.

"Why don't you eat it?" Liu Mang unwrapped the oiled paper bag containing the mung bean cake.

"Waiting for you!" Li Ruonan picked up the spoon and smiled sweetly.

"Oh. Now it's ready to eat. Liu Mang responded, approached the edge of the bowl and sniffed deeply.

"Well, the Lantern Festival is boiled with sweet wine, and then the beaten egg custard is stirred into it, the eggs do not have a trace of fishy smell, and they should be made of farmhouse eggs. ”

"Alright, my chef, your occupational disease has been committed again, hurry up and eat it, or it will be cold!"

"Get used to it! get used to it!" Liu Mang laughed dryly, picked up the spoon and scooped a spoonful of Lantern Festival into his mouth.

"This taste is really okay!" As soon as the sweet and glutinous Lantern Festival was entered, Liu Mang praised it.

The glutinous rice sweet wine is slightly sour, and there is a strong aroma in it, which should be made with good glutinous rice and fermented very carefully.

The Lantern Festival inside is also kneaded with glutinous rice, and it is wrapped in the filling of bean paste. With a gentle bite, the sweet filling flows out of it, neutralizing the sourness of the liqueur.

What's more special is that unlike the ordinary bean paste Lantern Festival, there are other things in this filling, and it has a special taste in the mouth.

"Oh, it's pine nut flour, and this is added to this bean paste filling. Liu Mang smacked his mouth and tasted it immediately.

"However, it's delicious, but it doesn't seem to be to the point of being particularly amazing? Does this have anything to do with the bounty issued by the space?" Liu Mang said in surprise.

"The proprietress said that this should be eaten with mung bean cake to taste the taste, so I will try it together." Liu Mang thought for a while, put down the spoon, and took out the mung bean cake from the paper bag.

Mung bean cake - can be said to be one of the more famous specialty pastries in China, according to the taste of the south and north.

The north is the Beijing style, do not add any grease when making, although the entrance is soft, but there is no oily feeling, also known as "dry bean cake". The south includes the Su style and the Yang style, and the oil needs to be added when making, and the taste is soft and delicate.

The mung bean cakes on the oiled paper in front of you are all traditional Beijing-style. The pack is divided into four pieces the size of mahjong. As soon as you touch it with your hand, the mung bean powder on it will fall down.

Liu Mang carefully held up a piece with his hand and put it into his mouth, chewing it a few times.

"Well, the entrance is delicate and tight, the taste is fragrant, soft and non-sticky to the teeth, and there is an obvious rustle in the mouth, which is very good......!

After chewing twice, Liu Mang was suddenly startled, and hurriedly took a big sip of the sweet wine on the table, laughing: "I understand! The taste of the soup! It turns out that this is the taste of the soup!"

"Liu Mang, what is the taste of Japanese soup?" asked Li Ruonan on the side curiously.

"You take a bite of this mung bean cake and try it with a sip of sweet wine!"

"Is there a difference?" Li Ruonan half-convinced picked up a piece of mung bean cake and put it in his mouth, chewed it, and took a sip of sweet wine.

"Wow! it tastes different!" she exclaimed.

"Although the taste of mung bean cake is good, it is slightly dry in the mouth, but it is just right with this sweet wine! It makes the mouth moist suddenly! It is very comfortable! And in these two foods, different smells are mixed together to form another special aroma, which is very good!" After speaking, Li Ruonan couldn't help but open his mouth and inhale in.

"Can you guess anything?"

"Hmm......" Li Ruonan frowned and thought for a while: "That's right!" The 'Wine-Brewed Lantern Festival' is added with pine nut powder!, and the 'Mung Bean Cake' is added with osmanthus flowers!"

"That's right! Two different ingredients, different aromas, are mixed together to form a new flavor! )
