Eleven, four sneaky old men

When I returned to the barracks, I didn't go back to my tent, but ran to Brother Gao's tent, and since the fox left, Brother Gao has lived with the five new people.

"Big Brother Gao." When I went in, I didn't expect that the five people were not in the triplets, but they were there, hey, these four people were working hard around the dough and dumpling filling.

It's not Big Brother Gao who will reply to me first, but Fat Five, that exciting virtue Oh, this life is really lacking for you.

"Yuanbao, you're finally back!"

Then, Brother Gao put down the face in his hand, and looked up at me a little excited: "Yuanbao, you are here, just waiting for you!" ”

Hearing this and seeing this scene, it was very clear that Fat Wu was reluctant to eat the last few dumplings to share with a few brothers, and then a few people also began to study this fresh way to eat.

After all, Brother Gao is the best at staple noodles, and looking at these noodles, he is eager to try.

When I looked closer, I couldn't bear to look at the Lord.

Brother Gao and the third brother and the fourth brother are all fine, they usually deal with noodles, the dough is round, look at the fat five, tsk, this goods, a good round dough can be rolled into an irregular arc surface that can't be said to be shaped.

"Fifth brother, which anti-king map are you going to roll?" Teasing Fat Five, I also sat down around the table.

The chaos on the table is no less than that of the Eighteen Roads Anti-King, there are doughs of different sizes, there are not decent dumpling skins, and there are several semi-finished dumplings, anyway, there is no finished product.

Hey, there's still a finished product, but it's in a bowl, and it looks like the mold I made before, and it's not easy for the four of them to be reluctant to eat the last one and start researching.

"Yuanbao, how to eat this dumpling, what do you think?" When my eldest brother saw me sitting down, he asked the question in his heart.

"The eldest brother has been making pasta for so many years, he should have heard of a sentence in the Western Han Dynasty, the cake is called the wonton."

"It's quite old people who talked about it."

"In fact, it is a kind of cake, the difference is that it is mixed with invagination, and it can only be used after steaming, if it is cooked in soup, it is called soup cake!"

"It turned out to be soup cakes! When I was a child, my dad did it for me during the Chinese New Year! At that time, the family did not have any money to buy New Year's goods, so my father went to the Zhuangzi to borrow some minced meat, mixed with vegetables and bread once! ”

When it comes to the cooking of soup cakes and the use of cakes, the eldest brother decisively recalled that when he was a child, his family was poor and couldn't afford to eat meat, which also reminded me that when I was very young, the New Year was the happiest day of the year, and there would be all kinds of meat, melons and fruits.

As soon as I wake up for the New Year, I eat, and my family simply wants to show off their crafts to the sky, and they don't have to go to school or cram school, so it's not too cool.

Ahem, my mind is off topic.

"Yes, this method of eating is made with a thin dough, and the filling is much less, and our ancestors thought it was a kind of sealed bun, so they called it muddy wonton. My pot-bellied dumplings are just to make people full, so the method is slightly improved, the invagination is enlarged, and the dough is thickened. ”

After a few explanations, I dipped some flour in my hand, touched a piece of dough, and said, "Brothers, don't get it, the dough is a little dry due to lack of moisture." ”

Before my voice fell, the three brothers collectively glared at Fat Five, and their eyes were all there: Fat Five, you melon peel!

Fat Wu said: "I think that the ingots are all in harmony." ”

The eldest brother glared at me again and asked, "Yuanbao, how should this dough be reconciled?" ”

I thought about it, and I didn't know how to explain this to my eldest brother in a modern unit of measurement, so I could only reply: "The dough is not sticky to the hands, there are no hard bumps, just look smooth, the eldest brother forgives the ingots for not being able to say the amount of water and flour, just by feeling, it doesn't matter if you want to get it at first, it's better to be hard and dry than too soft, the hard dough can be closed with a little water, and it can't be formed if it's too soft!" ”

I collected the clean dough in front of everyone, patted some water, and the whole thing was together again.

Wait until the hand feels almost smooth and doesn't stick to your hands before handing it to the eldest brother: "Big brother, if you touch it, this degree is almost the same!" ”

The three brothers took turns to touch it, and I took a piece and began to process it, kneading the rounds, rubbing the strips, kneading the small balls, sprinkling flour, and went to the rolling pin, rolling the edges with the rolling pin with one hand and rotating the dough with the other.

"The dumplings have to be seamed because of the large filling, and the two sides should be thinner than the middle, and after squeezing, they will be about the same thickness as the middle, so that they can be cooked together!"

As he spoke, he picked up the dumpling wrappers and let the brothers look at them through the candlelight.

"If the thickness is the same, the edge of the dumplings is thicker than other places, when the whole is cooked, the edges are sandwiched, if the edges are not sandwiched, I am afraid that the dumplings are also boiled, if the middle is rolled out thinly on both sides, then the dumplings are directly easy to expose the filling, big brother, the semi-finished product you just wrapped, you can see the filling through the dough, if you squeeze it harder, it will be exposed, that is ironclad!"

Picking up the eldest brother's semi-finished products and comparing them, the eldest brother seemed to have a good idea, so I squeezed the dumplings out again for him to see.

The eldest brother tried a few more with the skin I rolled, and sure enough, he became more and more proficient, and the third brother and the fourth brother followed the eldest brother to be considered effective. Hey, the only thing that gives people a headache is the fat five, how can you learn this thing, talent is really a congenital factor.

Fat Five poked the dough, rolled his eyes, and piled the stuffing on the skin, folded it in half, and then pressed it half a circle along the edge!

"Look, ingots! Brother is also out! ”

In order not to discourage the enthusiasm of the five, I can only praise the fat five such a bag, but I definitely don't want to tell him if I can't stand up, let him play, anyway, he is a cook in the barracks, no matter how he is, he can't open a restaurant.

Looking at the serious looks of several elder brothers, I was indeed a little tired, and I thought that I would have to help General Cheng think of ideas, so I hurriedly discussed with Brother Gao about improving three meals in the barracks in the next few days.

Brother Gao said that the soldiers of Tang Zhenzi noodles were decisively praised, so I decided to make some hot soup noodles in the morning, and after I heard this, I used the dough in the fat five hands to pull a piece of dough the size of a fingernail, and pressed it gently with my thumb.

- Hemp food!

"Big brother, the pasta is so good, boiled in bone broth, stewed with vegetables, such pasta will suck the soup into the noodles, and you can try it with dishes."

The eldest brother thought about it and thought that he could try it, but the hemp food was too small, and it was still a bit labor-intensive.

"Why don't we order more food, boil it a little thinner, and serve it with dry cakes, so that the soldiers can eat more."

After I listened, I thought about it, and it was true, I just thought that making hemp food is a noodle side dish with soup that can be nutritionally balanced, and it is comfortable to drink in the morning, but I slightly ignored that it is indeed time-consuming and infrequent to make hemp food.

"Big brother is just thoughtful."

In this way, it is enough for soldiers with a small amount of food to eat some hemp food, and if there are soldiers with a large amount of food, it is also good to soak dry cakes in soup and eat them together.

After breakfast was set, the eldest brother said, "Then let's have some hard goods for lunch, using pork?" ”

After thinking about it, I nodded and said yes, turned my head and asked Fat Wu, "Will pork stew with cabbage and radish?" ”

This sentence was like asking Mao Fat Wu, and jumped directly on the stool and pointed at me and shouted: "With Yuanbao, you look down on me again!" ”

Okay, okay, I hope I read you right, fifth brother! If you can't get the pork stewed cabbage and radish, you should not be the leader of the gang in the future, go and be a... Hey, I'm afraid that this height of five meters can only be a gang leader...

The three elder brothers smiled and bent down when they saw this, and dinner was not decided much.

The third brother said: "I haven't drunk porridge for a long time." ”

Then let's make a white porridge, white porridge with pickles, a good partner for dinner!
