【Beauty 34 Food】Seafood bamboo shoot dumplings

The days on the desert island came to the 28th day. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

During these days, everyone was almost at the point of doing nothing, except for Wang Xiaotie. Wang Xiaotie began to go out early and return late almost every day, and he mysteriously didn't know what he was doing.

At this moment of separation, everyone seemed to fall silent for a while. No longer chatting and joking like before. It seems that an inexplicable sadness spreads throughout the camp.

After lunch, it was customary to take a lunch break, but Wang Xiaotie stood up and stopped everyone.

"As your captain, I want to give you a gift at the last minute." Wang Xiaotie clapped his hands, "Everyone is an adult, it's easy to gather and disperse, there's nothing to be sad about." Because of the preparation of the gifts, today I am going to occupy the entire cave for an afternoon, and I hope that no one will come in until the gifts are completed. ”

Wang Xiaotie's request was not refuted, and everyone happily gave him this cave.

Get along day and night for almost 1 month, and in this last moment, everyone's hearts are full of reluctance. Wang Xiaotie is the same, and he cherishes this relationship more than anyone else. These days, I have been preparing silently, just to be able to give this group of lovely team members a special gift on the occasion of parting.

After taking out the fish that had been marinated for many days, Wang Xiaotie began to debone and cut the meat with a bamboo knife, and then cut it into meat foam little by little. There is also smoked clams meat, which was also cut into meat foam by Wang Xiaotie.

Next, Wang Xiaotie took out his secret weapon from the corner. The leaves used for camouflage were torn apart, revealing their original faces, which were washed bamboo shoots.

For this thing, Wang Xiaotie had to travel dozens of miles almost every day, returning to the bamboo forest to search for it all over the mountains. The most troublesome part is when digging, because there are no tools that can be used, only a wooden stick, so I dig five or six a day. Then you have to rush back to the cave before dark.

Wang Xiaotie didn't bring anyone to help, this was something he had planned a long time ago, and he wanted to surprise these 12 people, including himself.

To be honest, there are more ingredients available in this mountainous wilderness, and it is estimated that there are thousands of people who can eat. Helplessly, Wang Xiaotie didn't know any of them, so he didn't dare to pick them indiscriminately. Bamboo shoots were also something he stumbled upon while digging sweet potatoes, and from that moment on, he had the idea to make a dinner with this ingredient like no other.

After that, it was like a devil entering the village, anyway, there was a lot of time, Wang Xiaotie was like a hard-working squirrel, and began to go back and forth between the bamboo forest and the cave.

Bamboo shoot dumplings, this is not an innovation. Huaxia is a well-known food paradise, with all kinds of new tricks emerging one after another. Using bamboo shoots to make stuffing is already considered leftover in some areas of China.

Using a stone knife to cut the coat of the bamboo shoots, Wang Xiaotie began to peel the bamboo shoots. After all, there are 12 people here, and bamboo shoots are the main material, so it is a big project that is both time-consuming and laborious.

It wasn't until around 3 p.m. that Wang Xiaotie chopped all the bamboo shoots into minced pieces, then put the fish and clams into a clay pot, began to stir, and added salt to taste.

The frustration of a novice chef lies in the seasoning and heat. Wang Xiaotie didn't want to turn the surprise he had worked so hard to prepare for several days into a fright, so every time he put salt and stirred, he would put it on the tip of his tongue to taste the saltiness.

At 3:30 p.m., the filling for the dumplings was ready. Wang Xiaotie breathed a sigh of relief, and the next thing was the dumpling skin.

After a few days of experiments, Wang Xiaotie found that the unknown potato can indeed act as flour. But it was too hard to grind, so Wang Xiaotie thought of a time-saving and labor-saving method, and after practice, it also succeeded.

He took out the hand-ground sweet potato powder, poured it all into a large clay pot, and then put the steamed sweet potato into it, and slowly added fresh water to it.

Wang Xiaotie began to use his own hands to crush the cooked sweet potato, then mixed it with sweet potato flour and kneaded it into a dough vigorously.

The dough is yellow and has a stickiness comparable to that of flour. There is absolutely no problem with making dumplings.

Grab a small lump from the kneaded dough, make a ball, and then put it in the palm of your hand to flatten, use the thumbs of both hands to pinch around the center of the dough until it is thin enough, and then put your carefully prepared bamboo shoot meat filling in the dumpling skin, and put your hands together, a dumpling is formed, to prevent it from breaking when cooking, Wang Xiaotie patiently pinched the closure again.

Wang Xiaotie can pinch dumplings, which comes from childhood memories. This is also something that every child in an ordinary Chinese family has ever played. Every Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, the whole family will gather together to make dumplings, and children will of course join this activity for fun. And often the dumplings made by the children themselves are corrected by the mother, and they are also put into the pot together.

It was a wonderful memory. Today, it has become one of the skills mastered by Wang Xiaotie, although he is not proficient, but the dumplings he kneaded are also decent.

But Wang Xiaotie is regretting at this time: why didn't he learn to roll dumpling wrappers with his mother when he was a child? The rolling pin was also prepared by himself, but he couldn't roll it out, so he simply kneaded it by hand.

"The skin is a little thicker, but Lao Tzu is called handmade!" Wang Xiaotie also deliberately found a reason for himself to be on the stage.

This pack lasted more than 3 hours, and it was not until the dumpling filling was gone that Wang Xiaotie stopped unsatisfied.

From being jerky at the beginning, to becoming more and more proficient later, before he knew it, Wang Xiaotie found that the board made of bamboo poles was already full of dumplings.

It was already dark, and I took the time to look outside the cave, and found that the group of people were standing not far away, but their eyes were curiously staring at the cave they were in.

Of course they were curious, but out of respect and trust for Wang Xiaotie, coupled with Wang Xiaotie's very solemn words about preparing gifts, they didn't go to find out.

Wang Xiaotie came outside with a piece of red-hot charcoal with a wooden stick, "Everyone wait a little longer, let's make a fire here first, and we will eat outside the camp tonight." ”

Wang Xiaotie just showed up, took a look, and drilled back into the cave again*** Everyone was aroused by his strange behavior, and their attention unconsciously shifted to the cave blocked by the door.

The pot for cooking dumplings has already been put on the fire by Wang Xiaotie, and the rest of the time is to wait for the dumplings to come out of the pot.

The moment the water boiled, Wang Xiaotie carefully slipped the dumplings into the pot, and kept stirring carefully with a spoon in order to prevent them from sticking to the pot.

Because the dumpling skin is too thick, this dumpling is also very forbidden to cook. It took a long time to cook the dumplings before they surfaced with a big belly.

Pressing the bulging dumplings with his fingers, the depression did not bulge quickly, Wang Xiaotie sprinkled some cold water into the pot and continued to cook.
