Stir-fried chestnuts in sugar

As the saying goes, life is endless, struggle is not endless, Spring and Autumn has no big ambitions, but after crossing over, she also set a small goal for herself, that is, to stay one more day and earn one more day!

Today's hard work is for the enjoyment of the future, which is a necessary prayer before eating every time in the spring and autumn, just as sacred and solemn as washing hands before eating. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Before stir-frying, her father Yang Weibai also came over and asked her why she poured sand into the iron pot.

Chunqiu looked back at her father's inquisitive face, and really thought about it seriously, what did she say? Do you want to tell her father that this is the knowledge of physics, that is, the principle of using medium to heat, and sand is the medium of heat? Chunqiu frowned, if she said it, her father would not understand, but the gap between the two had crossed hundreds of years!

Ah, she can explain it simply, Chunqiu clenched his fist with his right hand and chiseled it into the palm of his left hand. It's like a clogged thought suddenly bursting out, "Dad, this is similar to the rice steamed at our house, the sand is the same as the water in the pot" The rice made at home is not to sit directly in the basin and steam it?

"Eh, then I know" Yang Weibai first glanced at the iron pot at home, then turned his head and said, "It's to make the burr ball cook better, if you don't put water when steaming rice, there will be pinching in the rice."

It seems to be right, Chunqiu looked at her father and really understood, and she was very happy, "That's right, that's it" Chunqiu showed her row of white teeth, and there was still some glitter in the sun.

After explaining the principle of frying with sand to her father, Chunqiu was ready to start the official work, and before doing it, Chunqiu specially asked her mother for a shovel that could not be used to turn the sand in the pot.

The chestnut itself is a nutritious dried fruit, which not only contains a lot of starch, but also contains a variety of nutrients such as protein, fat, B vitamins, etc., and the chestnut is sweet and warm, which can "nourish qi and spleen, thicken the stomach and intestines, and strengthen the kidney and tendons".

And the regular sugar-fried chestnuts are fried with maltose and vegetable oil, but the maltose has not yet been sent out in the spring and autumn, so after thinking about it, I can only use white sugar instead.

It is not something that can be used by putting sand in it, although the sand dug up by the river has been cleaned, but it is raw sand, and the raw sand needs to be fried before it can be put into the chestnuts.

And the chestnuts are not poured directly, in order to ensure the taste and texture of the sugar-fried chestnuts, the spring and autumn directly and then his father cut a small hole with a kitchen knife under the bottom of each chestnut, so that it is convenient to taste and fried.

Chunqiu first fried the sand in the pot over high heat, then poured in sugar, and then fried over low heat, of course, this process was directed by Chunqiu to her father, after all, the sand can be dozens of heavy, just her little arms and legs, can't turn it!

After her father copied almost the same, Chunqiu directly poured the packed chestnuts into the pot, then mixed the chestnuts and sand evenly, and then stir-fried.

During the period, Chunqiu added an appropriate amount of brown sugar and salt, a little vegetable oil, and slowly heated it over low heat, Chunqiu told her father to work slowly, while standing on tiptoe to check the things in front of him, and so on about 20 minutes later, he saw that the chestnuts were fried to shine, and the cracked mouth of the chestnuts was obvious, Chunqiu immediately asked her father to stop, cover the pot, and then immediately extinguish the fire without heating.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Chunqiu asked her father to open the lid of the pot, and a sweet and greasy fragrance floated out, and the sweet and delicious sugar fried chestnuts were officially out of the pot!

The chestnuts that had just come out of the pot were still steaming, Chunqiu took the chopsticks on the side, directly clamped a chestnut out, blew several breaths, reached out and touched it, and felt that the chestnut was not very hot before putting it into the palm of his hand.

Chunqiu pressed both sides of the chestnut with both hands, and then only heard a crisp sound, and the hard shell of the chestnut was broken in half, revealing the tender yellow chestnut flesh inside.

Chunqiu broke the chestnut meat, put half of it into his mouth, and handed the other half to Yang Weibai, who had been waiting for a long time.

Chunqiu chewed the chestnut in his mouth, and then swallowed it, "Dad, the chestnut is a little soft, simmer it less next time" is not as delicious as in later generations, but the taste is still better than others.

After eating in the spring and autumn, all the changes that can be changed were mentioned.

"Okay" Yang Weibai nodded, and then reached out and took out a hard shell and put it in his mouth, "It's really a little soft, and it's a little sweet" Yang Weibai felt that the white sugar he put before was a little too much, so that his mouth was full of sweet taste.

Chunqiu glanced at her father, reached out and took out one and continued to eat. "Yes, it feels okay" Spring and Autumn didn't feel how sweet it was, and it felt like it tasted just right.

"Give some to my mother to taste, and the rest will be sold after the chestnuts are collected in two days," Chunqiu told Yang Weibai with a smile.

Yang Weibai only heard that Chunqiu wanted to send those to her mother, and his tone suddenly slowed down, "Hehe, your mother must like it" Yang Weibai thought that Yuan's favorite sweets when he was young, thinking of Yuan's appearance when he was young, Yang Weibai was like floating out of pink petals, looking at the Spring and Autumn period has been retreating, the Spring and Autumn stains are amazing, and by the way, he can't help but shake his head and sigh, the man who fell into the memory is really terrible!

Yuan was embroidering in the house, and when he saw his daughter running in, Yuan smiled and said, "Is this made?" Early in the morning, the father and daughter have been tinkering in the yard, and Yuan naturally knows what the two are busy with.

"Well, mother, you eat and see" Chunqiu didn't go to the kang, lying on the side of the kang and handed the chestnut with a hard shell in his hand to Yuan.

Yuan put the chestnut in his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it into his stomach, and his tone suddenly became happy, "It's very sweet"

Chunqiu squinted after hearing this, put a few chestnuts in his hand on the side of the kang, and told her that after her mother opened it, she turned around and ran out of the door, and she also said that the chestnuts in the pot should be taken out, otherwise if you stay for a long time, the sugar on the chestnut shell should be melted.

When Huzi was in the evening, he ate a small half bag of chestnuts left by the Spring and Autumn Period as he wished, and the Spring and Autumn Season shot out, which was naturally extraordinary, and the Huzi once again raised the worship of her third sister.

In the following days, in the spring and autumn, they dared to harvest all the chestnuts on the chestnut trees before they fell fruit.

Every day, a basket is carried to the house, which has long attracted the attention of others, many villagers do not know why, why Yang Weibai will carry these useless hairball cones back, every time he asks, Yang Weibai always laughs and says that this thing is left with offal as a chicken, although the villagers do not believe it, but they still do not continue to ask.

Among them, of course, there are people who watch Yang Weibai pick and pick with them, but they don't know how to peel the skin, and they don't know how to make sugar fried chestnuts.

In the early morning of the end of September, the Spring and Autumn family got up early, except for Huzi to go to the study, the rest of the people had to go to Black Mountain Town, put the chestnuts prepared in advance, and took the iron pot and stove, Yang Weibai drove the ox cart borrowed from Da Niu's house last night, and drove Yuan and Spring and Autumn together, and the family of three went to Black Mountain Town in a leisurely manner......
