Chapter 641: Sugar-fried chestnuts

PS: Thank you for the GZ, asking for the rewards of the whimsical, shi, falling leaves, Kailing, professional demon cultivators, dragon of the heart, and the great devil of love sleep, as well as AT, and the monthly pass of the dream without a trace. Today, because I sorted out some manuscripts to see if they could be published, I delayed a lot of time, and everyone has been waiting for a long time!

After going back, the second aunt tossed sugar and fried chestnuts for everyone. Stir-fried chestnuts with sugar are seasonal flavors in autumn and winter. It is made by selecting high-quality chestnuts and stir-frying them in a pot filled with coarse sand and syrup. Sugar-fried chestnuts are dark brown, shiny and shiny, the skin is crispy and easy to peel, sweet and delicious.

The chestnuts were originally dark brown, but the way people in the north ate them was different from those in the south, using a huge blender and black fried chestnut stones to fry them constantly, and then carefully pouring sugar syrup into them, and after the finished product, they were called "fried chestnuts with sugar." "Chestnuts are nutritious and have the reputation of "the king of dried fruits", and everyone loves this bite. The first obsession with fried chestnuts with sugar was in the day. Tsu, Days. The fame of fried chestnuts with sugar is not as prominent as the three unique foods such as dogs and buns.

"Actually, the chestnuts in our south are not very suitable for sugar frying, and most people use them for cooking." Chu Jiaqiang said. Especially what chestnut stewed pork ribs, and there are chestnuts on the Buddha jumping over the wall that the second uncle made for everyone before.

"Huh! It's okay, we'll just use some for cooking. Ye Caiping's mother smiled.

"Hey! You guys go out and get some coarse grit and come back, wash it up! Chu Jiaqiang shouted to the people in Jackton, you can't let them sit and wait for food.

This time, Jackton and the others were puzzled, the sand can't be eaten, what are they doing with it? Then Chen Wu and the others saw those people on the street frying chestnuts, and they knew that they did have to put sand in them, but the specific effect was not very clear. Chu Jiaqiang had no choice but to tell them. Putting sand will allow the chestnuts to heat evenly.

"The sugar-fried chestnuts outside are precious, is it too cheap for us to sell them like this?" Xu Bimei said with a beautiful brow.

Even Chen Xiang also feels that the businessmen outside are too hateful and make too much money, right? It's only five or six yuan to buy back like this, and it's more than fifteen yuan to copy it yourself, which makes no sense! Despite the high price, the customers are still like a cloud, and I really don't know how to say it.

"It's a little better this year, people give seven yuan. We also came to buy, and last year we pulled it to the city, and it was only five yuan. Chu Jiaqiang said. It can't be helped! You can't keep it for yourself, can you? However, now Chujiazhai seems to really have this condition. But Chu Jiaqiang was afraid of trouble, so he still sold it all at once. Save yourself the hassle.

"Don't worry about shouting at other people's work! These chestnuts, you cut a hole. The second aunt instructed Chu Jiaqiang.

Seeing that Chu Jiaqiang was deflated, everyone chuckled. With the help of a few people, the chestnuts were washed first, and then the chestnut skin was cut with a sharp tool to a depth of about 5mm. This is important and you must not be lazy. And then. Soak the chestnuts in water for a while.

"Why cut it?" This time, even Liang Yu and others didn't know.

The second uncle explained with a smile: "When the chestnuts are fried, they will burst, and if you cut them in advance, they won't hurt people." ”

Hear this explanation. Everyone will suddenly realize that it seems that you really can't blindly read books! How experienced are these farmers? It's not like someone who can play high-tech.

Pour salt, chestnuts and sand into a clean pot and heat slowly over medium heat; Stir-fry with a spatula constantly so that the chestnuts are evenly heated. Continue stir-frying. You will see that the grains of salt will wrap around the chestnuts, don't worry. Continue to stir-fry.

"Do you want to help?" Zhou Furong ran to the kitchen, followed by monkeys and others. Looking at their expressions, most of them don't look like they're running to help, but they have a lot of ingredients to steal.

The second aunt couldn't cry or laugh: "No, you wait patiently, take the monkeys out, otherwise you won't know what to do for a while." ”

The monkey's ability to cause trouble has been taught by the whole village, and the second aunt is also very clear. Leave it in the kitchen, where there is a high chance of a fire in the kitchen.

Zhou Furong turned to the monkey, his face sank: "Did you hear that?" Get out of here. ”

Then, the second aunt sprinkled the sugar and sped up the speed of stir-frying. At this time, you must speed up, otherwise the bottom of the pot will be easily burned. When sugar is added, the salt will begin to become sticky, the color will gradually darken, and the sugar will begin to caramelize; The scent came out, the same as the smell of the chestnut stalls on the street.

The monkey who had just gone out smelled the fragrance and slipped in again. Even the little squirrel couldn't help but run in, drove the monkey out, and then squatted next to it to watch the second aunt stir-fry.

The monkey died of grievance, and was called and drunk by a little squirrel. But it can only swallow its dissatisfaction into its stomach, and its relationship with other alliances is very strong, so it can call the snow sculpture and the tiger to help, and it has to give in!

"Second aunt, let me fry it! You go out and rest for a while. Chu Jiaqiang saw that the second aunt's face was sweating, so he shouted.

There are a lot of these chestnuts and sand, so you can't stir them up with a shovel without a little strength. The second aunt was not pretentious, gave the shovel to Chu Jiaqiang, gave an order, reminded the precautions, and came out.

Seeing that the fragrance was getting stronger and stronger, many people outside couldn't help but run in.

"Hey! Seems like it's okay, right? Chen Wu patted his stomach and said. At his feet, the bear is holding a large wooden bowl, waiting to eat!

The monkey is a monkey anxious, seeing that Chu Jiaqiang didn't pay attention, he reached over and took one out. But the chestnuts at this time are very hot, and it's no joke. As soon as the monkey took it, before he could be proud, his face became frightened, and he hurriedly threw the chestnut away. Then run to the kitchen faucet to boil water to cool down.

Seeing the monkey's experience, those who originally had this idea immediately put it away.

"Well deserved! It's cool this time, right? Zhou Furong said.

Chu Jiaqiang waited until the chestnuts were wide open, the salt was no longer sticky, and the color was dark brown, turn off the heat, cover and simmer for 15 minutes.

After cooling down a little, Chu Jiaqiang let everyone eat. Many tourists passing by also came in to try it, and they all raised their thumbs.

"It doesn't seem to look as good as what it sells outside." Liang Yu said. I used to buy them, and they were all brightly colored, as if they were smeared with a layer of oil.

Chen Wu and others told them that it is difficult for us to distinguish whether the beautiful color on the surface of the chestnuts comes from "sugar" or "paraffin" in the sugar-fried chestnuts sold on the market, which creates an opportunity for those profit-hungry small traders and hawkers, in order to make the fried chestnuts more beautiful, and consumers have more appetite after reading them.

"No, it won't! Is this all fake? Chu Jiaqiang's cousin exclaimed, how do you feel that the food outside is not very safe?

"How not? You want to! This sugar-fried chestnut is more than ten yuan a catty, which is a very expensive thing, can it not be faked? Chu Jiaqiang said. He thinks what Chen Wu said is quite reasonable, how much food is safe in today's society? Estimated to be very little, right?
