047 Bun fritters

When Lu left the car, the rear body not only had seasonings such as soy sauce, live yeast, and baking soda, but also a small steamer and a large barrel of peanut oil, which Liu Xiaoyan took the initiative to provide after learning that Lu Li wanted to make steamed bun fritters by himself. Not only that www.biquge.info Liu Xiaoyan also explained a lot of precautions, I just hope that Lu Li won't get hurt when he cooks and eats.

This reminded Lu Li of the neighbors in his former hometown, simple and enthusiastic. Whoever makes a little food, you have to send a little to the door of each household, you have a little, I have a little, snacks are available, and dinner is also available.

What Lu Li remembers most is that the family at the end of the alley used to raise pigs, and at the end of the year, they would kill a pig, and every household would send some pig blood and some pork, and then let everyone go to the door to pick some offal. Then Lu Li's grandmother fried the fish and meat and fried the dough gnocchi by herself, and marinated a lot of preserved duck and bacon, and every household sent some back.

When he was a child, Lu Li often ran around the door of the neighbor's house next door, just to deliver things to the door, and when he was tired of playing with his friends, he went home directly after dinner at the neighbor's house.

It's just that when I grew up, the village became urbanized, and all the dilapidated streets were expropriated, overthrown and rebuilt, and after the apartment buildings were completed, the love between neighbors gradually faded, and those memories remained in the depths of memory forever. Today's children no longer have any concept of the days when they eat hundreds of meals and sleep in hundreds of families and grow up.

From the rearview mirror, you can still see Liu Xiaoyan and Li Huainan standing at the door watching him leave, this faint warmth makes Lu Li feel very happy. Thinking of Mr. and Mrs. McCartney who took the initiative to help today, the smile on the corner of my mouth couldn't help but rise.

When she got home, there was still the last caravan at the door, and Jessica was still sweating profusely. Lu Li said hello, and then went into the kitchen to get busy.

Although Lu Li is a person who likes to tinker with food by himself, he used to be able to stretch his hands and feet in New York, so the food he prepared was relatively simple, and he didn't want to make a big move today. So Lu Li was also a little apprehensive, rolled up his sleeves and looked at the kitchen full of things, and after sorting out his thoughts, he began to get busy.

The chicken soup was stewed neatly, the old hen soup was best stewed on a wood-fired stove, and slowly simmered over low heat for a few hours, and the taste seeped out little by little, only a few grains of salt were needed, and the overflowing aroma was enough to fill the whole room, but there was no stove here, only a gas stove, and it was only the second best thing.

Then the rice was steamed, but considering that Cole was still used to eating pasta or potatoes, Lu Li simply threw some potatoes and steamed them, and they chose them by themselves.

Then start washing the vegetables, cutting the meat, classify and put the basic ingredients of each dish, and then put them in the pot after they finish their work, otherwise it is still spring, and after the dishes are served, they will cool quickly. Most of the dishes on the table of Westerners are cold dishes, even if it is food such as steak, it has little impact after it is cold, but the Chinese/Chinese table pays attention to a hot, a bowl of hot rice and a bowl of hot soup, which is the taste of home.

After everything was ready, Lu Li decided to start making steamed buns.

Song Lingyi is a good housekeeper, inherited from Lu Li's grandmother, and she is proficient in all kinds of cooking in the kitchen, and the only thing she can't do well is to fry things. So every year when I want to fry something during the Chinese New Year, Lu Huaijin goes into battle, rolling up his sleeves and wearing an apron, which is so joyful.

In the past, when Lu Li was still at home, he helped next to Song Lingyi, and made steamed buns many times, but this was the first time that Lu Li broke away from his mother's guidance and made steamed buns independently. My head was a little blank for a while, so I had to stand there and think about it for a while, and after pouring the flour into the basin, I was about to add cold water, and then I reacted, and my memory instantly flooded up.

First, the live yeast was melted with warm water, and the flour was slowly added, and the dough began to be kneaded, which was a hard work, but Lu Li was handy, and the memory of his body gradually became vivid, and in an instant there was an illusion of returning home, which made every cell in Lu Li's body active.

After the kneading dough was kneaded, he put it next to it and waited for the dough to rise, while at the same time, Lu Li began to chop the meat filling on the side.

In the supermarket here, in fact, most of the meat is directly stirred by the machine, but Lu Li knows that the stuffing is not chewy, and the taste is always a little worse, so he still has to chop it himself. So, he specifically bought two pieces of whole pork belly. If there is enough time, Lu Li will use a rolling pin to hammer the meat directly and pound the meat pieces into meat sauce, which can maintain the maintenance of meat fibers, and the taste is absolutely brilliant when chewed, but this not only takes time, but also consumes energy, Lu Li still obediently cut the pork belly first, and then began to pick up the double knives - both knives were given by Liu Xiaoyan, and the knives here in the United States are not as good as those from his hometown - to show the martial arts skills, the two knives began to chop the stuffing neatly, and the crackling sound was like a symphony.

Lu Li felt that it was the New Year.

"God, Fourteen, what are you doing?" Jessica walked in, and then saw Lu Li rolling up her sleeves, as if she was dealing with a father killer, two knives flying up and down chopping the meat filling, that posture is a bit similar to the legendary Chinese/Chinese kung fu, but, using Chinese/Chinese kung fu to cook?" "You shouldn't have never cooked before, right?"

Jessica felt that she needed to be mentally prepared to be hungry tonight, what was wrong with her, and she wanted Lu Li to help prepare dinner - no, she thought that Lu Li would order takeout or something, but she didn't expect Lu Li to go into battle in person?

"You'll find out in a moment. Lu Li smiled mysteriously, but the movements in his hands did not stop, skillfully turning the meat filling, and his hands flew happily.

"What is this?" Jessica looked at the lump of dough in the large basin next to her, white but completely unconcepted, and Jessica had a sense of foreboding in her heart.

Lu Li didn't have to look back to know Jessica's expression, for Western countries, their living habits are too different from China/China. To this day, Lu Li still remembers that when he first went to a friend's house as a guest, the other party asked if he wanted tea or juice, and he had a cold in those days, so he asked for a cup of hot water, and everyone showed a surprised expression - here, no one will drink hot water directly.

My friend's mother brought a cup of hot water, and then asked tentatively, "Can we watch you drink hot water?" Lu Li didn't know why, nodded and agreed. Outcome...... With no result, they really looked at the animals in the zoo and drank the cup of hot water. After drinking, they actually applauded and congratulated.

It was the weirdest experience Lu Li had since he came to the United States.

So, Jessica saw the dough and the minced meat, with a puzzled and questioning expression, which was taken for granted.

"Prepare a prop to cast your magic. "Lu Li sold a pass.

Jessica shrugged, "You do need a little bit of magic right now. However, I don't think even Voldemort can save it. Jessica felt that she should start asking where the takeout order was. "You...... Continue, I'm going to help, the horses have just arrived, and it's going to take a while. ”

Lu Li also knew that horses were the most delicate and needed to be placed one by one, "How long will it take you to prepare?" ”

"Uh...... Give us an hour. Jessica estimated that since Cole and Lily were nearing the end of their work, the horses would be arranged a little faster.

Lu Li nodded to show that he understood, then he could start preparing in thirty minutes. That's enough time to wrap the first buns out.

Jessica looked at the table again—all of the ingredients before they were ready to be cooked, unprocessed, and so green that they looked like a large swath of vegetables. Thinking that tonight might be a vegan feast, Jessica mourned for her stomach for a minute.

"Come on!" Jessica shook her head, laughing and leaving the house, going back to work.

Lu Li sped up his movements, and after the meat filling was ready, he immediately began to roll out the bun skin. However, this is a kung fu job, if it is Song Lingyi, the speed will not be fast, but Lu Li is still a little rusty, and the speed is destined to be fast. In the end, Lu Li immediately decided to wrap thirty first, at least to solve tomorrow's breakfast, and wrap the rest of the dough in plastic wrap, and continue tomorrow.

After the buns were ready, look at the time, thirty-five minutes had passed, fortunately, Lu Li had made a wise decision just now, and put the buns in the steamer as quickly as possible, he thought, maybe tonight Ke Er If they are curious, they can try it. But judging by the years he's been living in New York, they won't like it.

Then, Lu Li began to prepare dinner, and the satisfaction of hearing the sound of peanut oil sizzling in the pot was indescribable—the scrambled eggs with tomatoes he used to make in New York could not satisfy his Chinese/Chinese stomach.

Night gradually fell, and the hard work and harvest after a day of work were intertwined, but the sweat on his forehead filled his chest with a sense of satisfaction.

Cole and Ronald giggled at the front, Lily and Jessica walked unhurriedly behind, the other cowboys shouted goodbye, the engine roared away, and the ranch was quiet again, the tranquility of the ranch after the extreme noise made the beauty of the ranch flow slowly under the moonlight.

Pushing open the back door, Cole was joking with Ronald, but he didn't expect to smell a strong aroma, and the stomach worms immediately became troubled, and before he could speak, Teddy behind him rushed in, "Wang" kept screaming, and Lu Li's voice came from the kitchen, "You're all done?" Give me another ten minutes, and you can eat." If you want, you can now sit down at the table, open a bottle of beer and have a chat. ”

Following the voice, Cole looked at the dining table, and his jaw was directly dislocated.
