Chapter 803
Not to mention, after Fang Monan's three days of observant observation, he really found a problem. Vera likes to do heavy work, and if you ask her to do some meticulous work, it's really not good, like asking Vera to go to the greenhouse to top and pluck the top.
Topping, also known as tipping, is based on the principle of removing the growth point of the stem and inhibiting auxin secretion, with the aim of inhibiting vegetative growth and promoting reproductive growth, so that plants can flower and bear fruit more, which is also called removing the 'apical advantage'.
Topping, i.e., topping, is the work of treating the reserved dry branches, basic branches or side branches. Topping is determined according to the purpose and method of cultivation, as well as the type of growth of the variety. When the reserved trunk, basic branches, and side branches grow to a certain length of fruit spikes and leaves, the top growth point is removed. Topping can control the growth of heightening and elongation, which is conducive to thickening growth and accelerating fruit development.
Such a simple thing, and it's not embroidery, Vera has a lot of strength, and she can pull up the whole plant from the ground, or pinch it too much. The distressed Guan Dashan said that he would not let Vera do anything, so as not to spoil the plants.
Fang Monan observed for three days, and the heavy snow also fell for three days, the sky and the earth were connected together, white and vast, it was impossible to distinguish that it was the sky and that was the earth, a crystal white snowflake fell from the cloudy sky, and the snowflakes that were sprinkled with the sassy cold wind flew all over the sky, like soft and light catkins, like goose feathers flying with the wind, swimming in the vast sky.
Fortunately, the snow is already small, it seems that it is about to stop, and the heavy snow covers the mountain, but the little ash is suffocated.
The big leaves move like a rabbit, like lightning. Only a dark shadow slipped through, leaving no mark.
Brother Yu was even more exaggerated, flying and hovering in the air, and the cheerful whistling sound was endless.
Fang Monan and they shoveled snow below, "Doctor Fang! We can do it all! Why do you bother! Chang Jiuchun, a big man, mother-in-law, and mother muttered for a while.
"Ah Jiu, you are about to become a mother-in-law, I don't know that Ah Jiu still has the potential to be a mother." Fang Monan said with a smile, this hand did not stop, shoveling snow all the way to the top of the mountain.
"Whew! Comfortable! Fang Menan stuck his shovel into the snow and did a few stretches at random.
The pores all over the body are full of comfort!
Chang Jiuchun stood behind her, looking at the delicate red between the white heaven and earth. A few actions at leisure. It's like ink painting.
"Doctor Fang, you have been observing Vera these days, is she inappropriate!" Chang Jiuchun asked with a slight frown, the anger in his eyes flashed.
"You! Think too much! It's just a cure. Fang Menan didn't embarrass him. Say it directly. lest he be cranky. It's not good to misunderstand!
"Heal! I think she is very normal, eats a lot, and works quite hard. Quite a healthy person. Chang Jiuchun tilted his head, he really couldn't imagine that Vera was sick, he looked at her spirits!
"Heart disease!" Fang Menan said.
"Heart disease?" Chang Jiuchun was confused and muttered to himself. "Forget it, I don't understand, you can just watch it!" As long as the person is safe, he is relieved.
"Gone! It's time to make breakfast down the mountain. Fang Monan's foot knocked slightly, picked up the shovel, and walked down the mountain.
"Doctor Fang, go down first! I'll sweep the tail again! Chang Jiuchun said.
"Good!"
Fang Monan turned around and went down the mountain, looking around, the mountains were covered with silver white, the houses were dressed in thick white clothes, the cold wind blew, the snowflakes were fluttering, and the trees were full of silver-white flowers; The tender green wheat field is covered with a thick layer of warm quilt.
Guan Dashan under the mountain, they played with great joy and turned the snow into snowmen, which was really not delayed. Enjoy the joy of the heavy snow.
Fang Monan shook his head amusedly, greeted them, and went into the kitchen. After making breakfast and eating breakfast, she started making tofu.
Tofu has a long history, which is the original creation of the Chinese people, and is known as "plant-based meat".
Outside the grasslands, nomadism was replaced by farming, people did not have the conditions to graze cattle and sheep on a large scale, and the limited land was first used for farming, dairy products, and finally failed to occupy a place in the kitchens of the Central Plains. People in agrarian civilizations turned their attention to another plant resource for valuable protein.
Finding the support of protein in the field of plants is both wisdom and luck for the Chinese people who have lacked meat in history.
The recipes of Buddhist practitioners are vegan. The life of spiritual practice is very hard, and even eating is a kind of homework. In fact, only Han Buddhism truly observed vegetarianism as a precept, which profoundly influenced the vegetarian tradition of the Chinese people for more than a thousand years.
Plant-derived tofu not only conforms to strict psychological precepts, but also gives the body the greatest nutritional support in terms of nutrition, and in terms of protein supply, soy food is the only plant-based food that can compete with meat. For vegetarians, it's quite perfect. And tofu implies a certain spiritual temperament in "Qing Widow".
Tofu was introduced to Korea during the Song Dynasty and to Europe, Africa and North America in the early 19th century. In the mid-20th century, tofu was less familiar to Western countries, but it became widely consumed in the West in the late 20th century with the cultural exchange between China and the West, as well as the growing importance of vegetarianism and healthy food.
"Vera, stay and help!" Fang Menan called Vera Dao, who wanted to get out of the kitchen.
"Help, I'll only eat!" Vera said without a twist.
The subtext is very obvious, and the ugly words are ahead, and she really can't help.
"It's easy." Fang Menan said with a smile.
The soybeans have been soaked for a night, and they are white and fat. As for the work of grinding beans, leave it to Vera, 'Hercules'.
Fang Menan demonstrated, Vera said, "This is simple. And so Vera spun around the little stone mill for an hour.
"Tired or not! The wrist is not sore. Fang Menan asked with concern, she found that Vera had been turning her hand and had never changed hands.
"Not tired!" Vera shook her hand and said lightly. "Small."
After grinding into soy milk, put it in a large pot and boil. It was not until it boiled that there was a ceasefire.
At this time, it is necessary to pass the package, which is the separation of tofu residue and soy milk. Fang Monan poured the boiled soy milk into the net pocket one by one, and Vera shook the tofu bun one by one, causing the pure soy milk to leak out of the net pocket and flow into the vat below.
Vera used a clean splint to clamp the remaining tofu residue in the tofu bun and squeeze the remaining soy milk. All boiled soy milk has to go through a net bag, and the tofu residue and soy milk are completely separated.
Vera was very energetic. It feels like play.
Then the soy milk continues to boil. Cool a little more and start pouring in the white powder.
"What is this?" Vera asked curiously.
"Gypsum, it's the key to turning soy milk into tofu." Fang Menan said.
"Look closely! Miracle Moment! Fang Menan winked playfully.
Fang Monan sprinkled the gypsum powder, and the gelatinous effect occurred at an instant that was perceptible to the naked eye.
"Wow! What's going on? Vera said in surprise.
Less. Fang Monan used a flat spoon to slice out the tofu brain. Scoop into a bowl and add sea rice, shredded kelp, golden needle, diced leeks and pepper. Coriander, drizzle with sesame oil, green onion and salt pepper to taste.
"Taste it." Fang Monan said with a look in his eyes.
Vera held the bowl with a small spoon in her hand. Put the tofu brain in your mouth. The amber eyes were instantly shining, "Hmm! The fragrance is incomparable, tender and smooth. ”
The smell of the kitchen soon attracted everyone, and everyone had a share, and Vera exaggerated and ate three bowls in a row.
"It's amazing, it's delicious." Words of praise go on and on.
"Ahh When you're full of food and drink, it's time to press the tofu. Fang Menan said meaningfully to Vera. Vera came over to press the tofu. ”
Fang Monan arranged the small square wooden frame, laid fine gauze inside, and began to scoop the tofu brain into the wooden frame one by one, and the water flowed out from below, and the tofu brain was deposited in the wooden frame. Wait until the tofu brain in the wooden frame is full, turn the four corners of the tofu bun over, wrap the tofu flowers, and press the top with a wooden board.
"Vera, let's start pressing now! Remember not to use too much force, or it will be crushed. Fang Menan's words haven't fallen yet, Vera is already deflated, not to mention tofu, it's good to have some tofu brains.
"How can this be, why, you are square, mine is like this." Vera looked disbelieving, how could it be the same pressure, the difference was so big.
"Be smart, don't push too hard." Fang Menan continued to admonish.
Vera continued to press the tofu, but she always tried too hard and did not succeed once.
"How so!" pressed three versions of tofu in a row, but Vera didn't succeed. She sat down in her chair a little dejectedly, looking at her hands stupidly, clenching, loosening, clenching, loosening.
"Why?" Vera looked at Fang Menan in surprise.
Fang Monan smiled with relief, "It seems that you also realize that you are wrong." ”
"How?" Vera looked at Fang Mo Nandao expectantly.
"Keep making tofu!" Fang Menan pointed to the remaining tofu in the jar. "Let's start by controlling the strength of your hand!"
***************************
"Sister Vera! Please, hurry up and press the tofu! The tofu brain we ate was almost vomiting. Chang Jiuchun patted the table with a bitter gourd on his face.
Others are related and agree.
No matter how delicious the tofu brain is, no one can stand it if you eat it for a few days!
"No! I think it's delicious. Vera smiled so sweetly, and ate deliciously.
Vikara chimed in, "I've never eaten anything so delicious, and I never get tired of it. ”
"You can do it!" Chang Jiuchun admired.
Grandma has eaten tofu brains for a few days in a row, and she can't bear it anymore, "Okay, Ajiu, these tofu brains, just take them to the store and buy them." ”
"Oh yes! Aunt Mo, you are simply our savior! Chang Jiuchun jumped up happily.
"Is the tofu brain I made hard to eat?" Vera asked with a frustrated face.
"Uh......" Chang Jiuchun said, "Uh! What you make is delicious, but if you eat too much, you will get tired easily! That's right! If you don't believe it, just follow Aunt Mo for a while and go to see the sales. (To be continued......)
