"Hee-hee...... If you like it, it's fine. Then eat a few more, there are so many anyway, and I'll roast them outside. Xiaoxi pushed the basket with chestnut cakes in his hand in front of Old Man Chen and Granny Chen.

"Well, you eat, I'll eat this one. After speaking, he stuffed the remaining mouthful in his hand into his mouth, patted the crumbs in his hand, washed his hands and continued to roll the skin.

Xiaoxi also tasted one and stopped, she still likes to eat salty stuffing. Put red dates, wolfberries, chrysanthemums and rock sugar in the water cups of several people, and pour hot water to soak them.

Granny Chen doesn't have a water cup, so when she wants to drink, she can take a bowl in the cupboard and pour some into anyone's cup.

Chen Yubin had already hurriedly grabbed the second one to eat. "Binbin, you eat slowly, there are so many more. Eat and drink some water. As he spoke, he unscrewed the thermos cup and set it aside to cool.

As soon as the words fell, Chen Yubin anxiously reached out and took the cup on the board, blew the hot air, and drank a few sips of hot water into the cup.

"Hey, slow down, freshly poured boiling water, scald...... You pour it into a bowl, it gets cold like that. After pouring boiling water not long ago, Chen Yubin drank it from the cup, and Xiaoxi was a little anxious, afraid that he would burn him.

Here, burning means burning.

"Hey~hehe~ It's a bit burning. Then he puffed out his cheeks and blew cool air on the mouth of the cup, and slowly drank two sips. If there is a cup, of course, it is to drink water in a cup, and who pours it into a bowl to drink.

I picked up another piece of chestnut cake, this time I was not in a hurry, I took a bite of the chestnut cake, drank a sip of hot water, and ate very happily. "Hmm~ The chestnut cake is so delicious, it's just a little choking. ”

Choking means choking on eating, and choking on eating means choking on what you eat.

"If you're choking, eat more slowly and drink more hot water. Granny Chen on the side said softly. Although she thought the chestnut cakes were delicious, I don't know if she was used to keeping the good things, or if she was full after eating two and drinking a little hot water, or something else. After eating two chestnut cakes and drinking a bowl of boiling water, I washed my hands and went back to work.

"Binbin, eat less......" Xiaoxi stretched out his index finger and pointed to the basin in the corner of the board, "I still have to barbecue meat at noon, and it won't be long." ”

"Ah~" Chen Yubin looked at the chestnut cake in his hand and was very annoyed, but because of his nature, he frowned, and slowly ate the remaining chestnut cake in his hand with hot water.

However, Chen Yubin is very good at this, and he does not waste food easily, although the current environment and conditions do not allow them to waste it. But Xiaoxi eats a lot there, and it is still producing, and he is not afraid of them wasting it at all, but he is reluctant to give up, and he still cherishes every grain very much.

"Binbin, the next thing to do is to be salty, to separate from the previous one, don't get confused. "Several people divide the work. Old Man Chen and Granny Chen's hands and feet were nimble, Xiaoxi and Chen Yubin were doing simple work, and for nearly an hour, this sweet dough was all turned into chestnut cake.

During this period, three more plates of chestnut cakes were baked, but Xiaoxi did not bring them back, and they were all stored in the space warehouse as soon as they were baked.

After making the sweet chestnut cake, the next thing to do is the salty one. Old Man Chen has already made noodles and has already begun to roll the skin.

Pick up the sweet chestnut cake on the board, hand it to Chen Yubin and ask him to put it away quickly, and tidy up the space to distinguish between these salty and sweet flavors.

It's just such a mold, and there are no sesame seeds at home to make marks, so you can only ...... it yourself Eh~

"Mother-in-law, wait a minute, don't be busy doing it yet. Xiaoxi stopped Granny Chen, who was about to put the dough in the mold, and hurriedly went out, leaving the three people in a daze, what is this for?

Granny Chen looked at Old Man Chen inquiringly.

Old Man Chen was stunned for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he continued to roll the skin, and when he saw that the mother-in-law and grandson were still confused, he said indifferently: "Xiaoxi tells you to wait a minute, you can wait a minute." Binbin, come back to your senses, work. ”

Soon, the creek returned. Give the things you are holding in your palm to Granny Chen.

Granny Chen was very puzzled and took the things from Xiaoxi's hand, "What is this for?"

"Mother, this chestnut cake is not difficult to distinguish, they all look the same, I cut something, you put it in the mold, so that the chestnut cake pressed out has a mark, and it is easy to distinguish it." Xiaoxi pointed to the five-pointed star in Granny Chen's hand and said.

She really couldn't remember what style she wanted to cut, so she remembered the five-star red flag, so she cut a five-pointed star.

"That's a good idea, so I don't have to remember which chestnut cakes are salty and which chestnut cakes are sweet, just look at it, hehe......" Chen Yubin handed the five-pointed star in his hand to Old Man Chen.

Rubbing the five-pointed star in his hand, it was small, about the size of a thumb belly, hard, and Old Man Chen couldn't help nodding. He likes to eat salty food, these chestnut cakes are made exactly the same, it is not easy to distinguish, then he will eat chestnut cakes in the future, it is really difficult to choose, with a mark, it is different.

This five-pointed star is still cut out of cardboard by Xiaoxi, and it is one or two millimeters thick, but it can be pressed out of the print.

Put the five-pointed star in the middle of the mold, stuff it into the dough, press, beat, shake lightly, pour out, and on a flat round dough, there is a five-pointed star mark in the middle that is not deep or shallow.

"Haha...... That's fine. The freshly pressed chestnut cake was lying on the board for a second, and Chen Yubin picked it up and looked at it in the palm of his hand.

Putting the chestnut cake in his hand back on the board, Chen Yubin turned around and gave a thumbs up to the stream. Xiaoxi laughed twice, and then lowered his head embarrassedly (hehe) and continued to make the stuffing.

By the time Old Man Chen finished rolling out all the dough, it was already past twelve o'clock.

Putting down the rolling pin in his hand, taking the dough to help with the filling, Xiaoxi said: "Master, you don't have to be busy here, it's already past twelve o'clock, you go to the pot to cook." ”

Old Man Chen said good-naturedly: "That's right." He didn't move, he finished wrapping the dough in his hand before turning around and going to the stove, scooping water to wash the pot and boiling the pot.

Xiaoxi and Chen Yubin's work is simple, and it doesn't take long for them to be all stuffed, and they are placed on the board one by one, waiting for Granny Chen to put them in the mold and press them.

"Oops, the hand bar is sore. Chen Yubin let out an exaggerated sigh, kneading his arm and walking towards the fire.

Brook didn't remember to rest, but went out of the stove door to check the chestnut cakes in the oven.

It didn't take much effort to wrap the stuffing, and when I returned to the house, Xiaoxi took a basin and scooped hot water, and began to wash lotus roots (crispy lotus roots), eggplants, green beans, cabbage, lettuce, meat and spicy seeds, and artichokes.

I remembered some fresh shiitake mushrooms, and I also took out a handful to wash them, and soaked some fungus.

This shiitake mushroom was bought when she was in Beijing, and there were originally enoki mushrooms for sale, and she also liked to eat them, but children were easy to stuff their teeth when they ate these, so she didn't buy them.

Thinly slice the lotus root and eggplant so that they are easier to bake. The green beans are broken into sections, the shiitake mushrooms are sliced, the spicy meat is removed from the stems and the pepper seeds inside, the potato slices are cut a little thicker, and the leaves of the cabbage and lettuce are broken one by one.

Put the cabbage hearts and lettuce in a basket and drain. Cut the cabbage into half a centimeter pieces, and cut the leaves slightly larger, which will be served later when the soup is cooked.

Now that the dishes are ready, it's time to prepare the barbecue sauce.

Sitting in front of the fire with her back to Granny Chen, Xiaoxi carefully took out a small bucket of chili sauce from the space.

The reason why I am so careful is because this bucket of chili sauce is very precious and hard to come by.

The seed field behind the space wooden house, where the spiritual spring water is used, has no side effects. For example, in the soil in front of us, the spiritual spring water is used too much, and the seeds germinate, grow, flower, bear fruit, and decay so quickly that they can only be seen rotting in the ground, and the fruits cannot be picked.

Like a sapling, it can only drop one drop of spiritual spring water a day, and if it drops too much, the sapling will quickly decay. A drop of spiritual spring water can induce perennial plants to grow for a year, and it is only useful for saplings, such as seeds, which can only be mixed with water to promote germination, and has no effect of inducing.

The creek first mixed the lake water with the spiritual spring water, and soaked the seeds of the four wattle peppers, Chaotian peppers, green onions, ginger and garlic, as well as peppercorns, fennel, and some large ingredients for two days, and then sprouted, and then sowed them in the seed field behind.

Like pepper seedlings, you have to pull the seedlings, dig pits and transplant them.

It is watered every day with spiritual spring water. If you use a lot of spiritual spring water, the plants will only grow well, and the spiritual power will be sufficient, and the growth will be the same as other plants in the ground, and it will not speed up the growth rate.

Moreover, the growth cycle of the plants in the seed field is longer than in other places, like this batch of peppers takes half a month to mature.

Especially when the peppers are almost ripe, the waiters should be more careful. It is necessary to pick the peppers when they are just red, otherwise after the red, only a layer of pepper skin will remain, and the pepper meat will be gone. Such peppers are dried and not tasty.

In those days, she basically went to bed at night, and when they all fell asleep, she went into the space. One stay is the night, and it is estimated that they have to get up before leaving the space.

Half of the picked chili peppers are ground into a pulp with a stone mill, and the other half is divided into two parts, one is ground into chili noodles and the other is dried into dried chili peppers.

There is a stone mill in the courtyard of the wooden house, about twenty or thirty centimeters in diameter, and you can grind a soy milk or something by holding the handle with one hand.

So the creek is in the space, and this stone mill is used to grind the chili peppers into a pulp, and also grinds the chili noodles, cumin powder, and five-spice powder.

Salt, shallots, minced ginger, garlic and peppercorns are added to the chili sauce, and every day when the sun is at its highest, it is held out of the space to dry, so that it has been turned and dried for a year before it is stored in the space warehouse.

After working so busy for more than a year, I got this small bucket, which is about twenty or thirty catties. So she's more economical.
