Chapter 281: Baking Mooncakes
"I'll try it!" Wang Aihong took the lid and picked up a piece of dough and pressed it in.
Everyone was addicted, and all the dough became round moon cakes.
The next step is roasting.
"Let's use the pot!" Shen Hui said.
Sister-in-law Qi nodded, "I have a frying pan at home, I'll get it." ”
After a while, the pan was brought, the others looked at the fire, and Shen Hui came to roast it.
Sister-in-law Qi lit the fire first, and after a while, Shen Hui lifted the lid of the pot and felt the temperature in the air, seeing that it was almost over, she was busy spraying water on the moon cakes and putting them into the pot with tongs.
"Keep it up like this!" Shen Hui wiped her sweat, it was really hot.
After five minutes, open the lid, brush with the prepared egg mixture, and put it back into the pot.
"The fire could be a little smaller! yes, a little smaller, and that's it!"
After five minutes, there was a burst of aroma under the lid, and after another five minutes, the fragrance became stronger.
Because it was the first time to do it, Shen Hui was not very relieved, so she deliberately opened the lid of the pot and took a look, and the surface and bottom of the moon cake were already browned.
Sister-in-law Qi also approached and sniffed, "Almost, right?"
"What kind of stuffing is it?" Shen Hui asked, the table was full of moon cake embryos, and she forgot where to put the filling for a while.
"Bananas!" Sister-in-law Lin reminded.
Shen Hui nodded, it should be almost, and said that he used a spatula to shovel out one, and then covered the pot to return the oil, and the fire under it was also sealed by Sister-in-law Qi.
The mooncakes that had just come out of the pot were steaming, Shen Hui didn't dare to reach out and take them directly, put them on the board and fanned the wind for a long time, touched the warm with his hand, and cut them into five pieces with a knife, revealing the pale yellow transparent filling inside, no matter whether it was delicious or not, it was good-looking anyway.
"Taste them all!" Shen Hui picked up a piece and motioned for the others to eat it too.
The entrance is a little soft, but the filling is really good, it melts in the mouth, and it has a faint banana flavor, which is a little bit less sweet than the previous life, after all, it is mainly winter melon, and winter melon has no sweetness, it would be better if you added some honey.
"Delicious!"
"It's delicious!"
Shen Hui looked up and saw everyone's surprised eyes, she knew that this was half the battle.
Seeing that everyone looked at herself after speaking, Shen Hui didn't hide her selfishness, "Well, I also think it's delicious, but if you add a little more honey, it will be even more delicious!"
When everyone heard it, it was true, Wang Aihong said: "Well, it's okay to add honey, but it also costs money, right?"
Shen Hui nodded, "At that time, this kind of moon cake will be called banana honey moon cake! We can sell it a little more expensive, after all, there are many things added to it!"
Everyone nodded, and Sister-in-law Qi asked, "What kind of stuffing will we bake next?"
"I really want to try the ham stuffing now!" Wang Aihong licked her lips and said expectantly.
"I want to try the egg yolk!"
"I want to eat black sesame seeds!"
"I want to eat mung bean paste, hehe, I like sweet. ”
Shen Hui waved his hand, "Don't worry, come one by one, make sure you have enough to eat!"
With the success and experience of the first one, the next one will be even simpler, and by the time Gu Zhengqin comes back, all the mooncakes will be baked.
These kinds of moon cakes can almost be said to be successful, of course, there are some small shortcomings in them, as long as they are slightly improved, they will be more perfect.
There were ten pieces of each, but everyone was reluctant to eat them, so they cut the first piece into five small pieces and ate them separately, leaving nine pieces of each.
Shen Hui thought about it and said, "Let's give each family a piece to our men and children to try first, and we can give the remaining four pieces to the soldiers to taste and listen to their opinions." ”
"Well, this attention is good, it's just a little less, if you want me to say, anyway, we're going to bake it tomorrow, just take it all out, anyway, it's not bad for a while!" Sister-in-law Qi said.
Shen Hui shook her head, "No, we have worked hard all afternoon, can't we enjoy it by ourselves?" Besides, I don't really want to listen to their opinions, I'm just putting up an advertisement to let them know that we have this new style of mooncake here!"
Everyone took the mooncakes and left, and made an appointment to talk about it after dinner.
Shen Hui also took out the mooncake she had shared and handed it to Gu Zhengqin, "Taste it?"
"How's it going, is it delicious?" this guy was also serious about eating something, which made her heart beat a drum.
"Well, it's delicious!" Gu Zhengqin swallowed the last bite and said, "A banana smell, it would be better if it was dessert!"
Shen Hui smiled and handed him the ham filling, "You try this!"
Gu Zhengqin broke open the moon cake and handed it to Shen Hui in half, she broke off half and handed it back, her throat was about to smoke after baking in the kitchen all afternoon, and she didn't want to eat anything but water.
"It's delicious! It's just that there's less meat!" Gu Zhengqin said.
Shen Hui glanced at him, "Can you still sell this moon cake with meat?"
She said and picked up another piece of pickles, "Try this, pickles, it's also a new variety." ”
Shen Hui watched him eat and scratched his head, "Actually, I thought about it again, this pickle is kneaded out with winter melon puree, what if you use sweet potato puree?
When she tried it before, she found that the bite next to the skin was more delicious, and then she thought about it, the skin was added with maltose, sweet, and the skin was more delicious, could it be because the sweetness could improve the freshness?
Gu Zhengqin nodded, "I think it will be more delicious, but not everyone can accept it." ”
Shen Hui nodded, "Well, I'll try it out tomorrow first, and I'm discussing it." ”
Shen Hui said and handed it over, Gu Zhengqin waved his hand, "I'll have to eat later, I'll leave these for you to eat." ”
"By the way, the drawings are finished, look, can you get them out?" Shen Hui nodded, picked up the drawings on the table and handed them to him.
"Yes, but I'll let them get a little less bricks, and I'll let them get some more later." Gu Zhengqin looked at the drawings and said, "By the way, I'll let them come over after eating." ”
"Well, that's okay! Then I'll give them a taste of these mooncakes later!" Shen Hui said.
"Okay!" Gu Zhengqin nodded, he was still very happy that his daughter-in-law could treat his soldiers preferentially.
Shen Hui cooked quickly, the meal had just been served on the table, the deputy company commander of the reconnaissance company came over with a group of soldiers, about a dozen people, sister-in-law long, sister-in-law short, Shen Hui smiled and smiled, waved his hand, don't work first, first send a piece of moon cake to taste, and tell them that what they helped build was a stove for baking moon cakes, as long as it was built well, one person would be given a pound of moon cakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival!
A group of people immediately cheered, and some of them cleverly shouted that one catty was not enough, and that they had to get three catties, and Shen Hui also responded with a smile, "Okay, three catties is no problem!" However, you have to go and get me some honey, and from today onwards, you will send firewood, the more the merrier!
