Chapter 17 Making Tofu?

After Liu Meiyu left, Su was extremely glad that she had let Jin Niang help her keep it secret.

The next day, Su Wei had an early meal, leaving Xiao Ning and Xi'er to do embroidery in the room. Aunt Tian Tian came to the mill, last night had washed ten catties of soybeans and soaked them in a bucket, and today he will grind all the ten catties of soybeans and make tofu.

Aunt Tian made tofu when she was in the village, and the tofu she made was the most tender and delicious in the whole village. So Su Wei was relieved to hand over the matter of making tofu to Aunt Tian.

Uncle Tian grinded, and Aunt Tian poured beans into the middle of the grinding plate. The two work well together.

After grinding the beans, spread two layers of gauze in a large wooden basin, pour the ground pulp into the wooden basin, Aunt Tian lifted the gauze, and Uncle Tian squeezed out the soy milk by hand.

Originally, in the countryside, okara was generally used to feed pigs, but Ewha Curie did not feed pigs, and it was impossible to feed them. Uncle Tian was about to take the bean dregs and throw them away, but Su Wei hurriedly stopped: "This is a good thing, don't throw it away." Uncle Tian didn't understand what kind of good thing this bean dregs would be. Although I didn't understand it, I left the okara behind.

Halfway through, Xi'er asked Uncle Ueda and the two of them to go together to fertilize and water the herbs. In the kitchen, there were only two people left, Su Weiwei and Aunt Tian.

After squeezing, it is time to boil the soy milk, Aunt Tian squatted in front of the fire, kept controlling the size of the fire, and slowly boiled it over low heat, after the soybean milk boiled, there was a lot of foam, and Aunt Tian skimmed off the foam on the noodles while watching the fire.

After the soy milk boiled, it boiled for a while, and Aunt Tian scooped a little with a spoon and put it to her mouth, smelled it, and tasted it again. explained to Su Weiwei: "This boiled soy milk must be cooked thoroughly, otherwise there will be a smell of beans." Does Miss want some soy milk? ”

"Scoop it up and let everyone taste it." Su Wei stared at the soy milk, he hadn't drunk soy milk for a long time, and he still missed the sweet taste a little.

The smell of beans wafted through the air throughout the kitchen.

Aunt Tian filled a small pot of soy milk. scooped a little sugar and stirred it: "In the past, when we were in the village, it was rare to drink soy milk once, and it was usually all made into tofu, even if we made soy milk, we didn't put sugar, sugar was precious, and we all drank it like this."

Su Weiwei poured a small bowl, tasted a small bite, just got out of the pot, a little hot: "Aunt Tian can drink more today, it will be sweet with sugar."

"Okay!" Aunt Tian replied with a smile. turned off the fire and took out a long bamboo tube: "The most important thing to make tofu is to order marinade, good tofu is delicious, and bad tofu is not delicious!"

Su is the only one who watches other people make tofu on food channels and TV, watching people drop a few drops of brine casually, and then stir it to make tofu, or the first time I watched the live-action version of the tofu I didn't expect to have this requirement.

"This is brine, I went to the tofu shop yesterday to buy it, the marinade must be slow, but it can't be too slow, otherwise it's easy to get old, the brine must be even, and it must be added little by little! It won't be old and tender! Aunt Tian took a big spoon and slowly stirred it in one direction with the spoon while dripping brine.

When all the soy milk appeared flocculent sediment, Aunt Tian stopped stirring: "Miss, this tofu flower is ready, and it can be made into tofu after a half-column of incense."

"Okay, let's go drink soy milk first!" Su Wei looked at the tofu flower with a smile.

Aunt Tian was holding the soy milk, and Su Wei stood in the courtyard and shouted in the direction of Xiao Ning and Uncle Tian: "Xiao Ning, Uncle Tian, Xi'er, come and drink soy milk!!

Xiao Ning, who came first, walked in with a frown, and said to Su Wei with a stern face: "Miss, you are a girl, how can you shout so much!" How will I marry in the future! ”

Su Wei didn't care, but smiled obscenely: "Who said that I want to get married, I am Su Gongzi, and I will marry my Xiaoning as my wife in the future!"

Although Xiao Ning didn't know what his wife meant, but he still understood when he married, Xiao Ning's face suddenly flushed, and he didn't know whether he was angry or ashamed, "Miss, you are really, talking nonsense."

As soon as Uncle Tian and Xi'er came in, they couldn't help but laugh when they heard Su Wei teasing Xiao Ning.

"Miss really likes to joke, but Miss, what Xiao Ning said is right, you look at you as a girl, you have to pay attention!" Uncle Tian said bitterly.

Su Weiwei spit out his lilac tongue and grimaced: "I know, I know!" Uncle Tian, Xi'er, come and drink soy milk. ”

Aunt Tian scooped up the soy milk and put it on the table, and one person picked up a bowl and tasted it.

Except for Su Wei, who used to drink soy milk before, Xi'er and Xiaoning basically never drank it.

After half a pillar of incense, the tofu flower is almost ready. Aunt Tian took out three clean square wooden basins, with some small holes at the bottom of the basin and around it, then laid out gauze, scooped the tofu flowers into the gauze respectively, covered the lid of the wooden basin on it, and then brought three clean big stones to press on the lid.

After waiting for half an hour, I took the lid and found a large piece of white and tender tofu inside, which looked very cute.

There are three whole plates of tofu, how long do you have to eat this!

"Miss, there is so much tofu, we can't eat it in a week!" Aunt Tian said as she moved the tofu to the table.

Xi'er also chimed in beside her: "That's it, and it's going to break if it's so hot!"

"Miss must have her own ideas, otherwise how could she make so much tofu." Xiao Ning almost figured out Su's only temperament.

Su Wei was happy all of a sudden: "It seems that Xiao Ning knows me best, our Xiao Ning is really smart."

Uncle Tian stood aside to help Aunt Tian: "Our young lady has always been a smart and thoughtful person."

When he said this, several people nodded in agreement.

"What does the young lady want to do?" Xi'er asked curiously with her little brain melon. Although Xi'er is twelve years old, she has always been very short for some reason, only about one meter two. Compared with Xiao Ning and Su Weiwei, he is really a lot shorter. In addition, sometimes people are stupid, and they look like a child who has not grown up.

Su only smiled mysteriously and sold a pass: "I want to use it to make a good thing!" You'll know when the time comes. Su Weiwei cut all the tofu into small boxy cubes, put them on the wooden board one by one, and put them in the steamer.

"Everybody help me move the steamer into the room next to the rockery." Su Wei is holding one cage, and there are three more cages on the ground.

The rockery is in the middle of the small pond, and the room that Su only said is backed by the rockery, which is the coolest of all the rooms.

Xi'er followed, and the four of them put the steamer in the corner, and the window was closed so tightly that no sunlight could penetrate at all.

That's right, the only thing Su has to do is to pay for his life, and the bean curd on the tip of his tongue is so delicious that it bursts. This was the only thing Sue had to eat when she was in college.

In the past, when I was at home, Su Wei would make his own fermented bean curd to eat, and the people here must not have tasted this taste, if this is made, it will be sold exclusively in the country, and there will be no semicolon!
