Chapter 419: Teach people to make tofu
Seeing that Liang Yiyi was listening carefully, the county magistrate's wife reminded her again: "When the family is big, if you want to manage this family, the most important thing to do is to be transparent about human contacts, as for cooking, embroidery, just pretend, but even if you don't do it yourself, you still have to understand the rules that you should know, such as sacrifices, what are the three animals, how to place them, you have to have a number in your heart, just know it, do it or not, there are people anyway." ”
"Also, what is the most important thing for a woman in a family? The chief is good at the advance and retreat of the family, the bigger the family business, the more you must learn to advance and retreat in this regard, and the most exquisite mind, as for the rest, just leave it to the man, otherwise what is the use of this man. ”
The county lady said, her eyes flashing with shrewdness.
That's not right, ma'am, why are you telling me all this, and besides, is this a complaint, or does it mean something else?
Doesn't it mean that ancient women, especially women from large families, were proficient in poetry and songs?
Liang Yiyi was a little dizzy, and she couldn't understand what the other party meant, but no matter what, she felt that her three views were impacted.
"So, don't think I'm powerful, and don't think that everyone else is amazing, everyone is a layman, but the appearance is different." The county princess and wife looked at Liang Yiyi and spoke again.
"Understood, thank you Madame for the point."
At this time, Liang Yiyi completely understood that this lady deliberately reminded her and told her some things about the mansion, so as not to make mistakes in the future.
"Something to mention or not, sooner or later you will know."
Mrs. County Master shook her head, and then said curiously: "By the way, I heard that you made a dish called tofu, and I asked someone to help get some soybeans early in the morning, and also grinded the pulp, why don't you teach me how to make tofu when you have time?" I pondered for a long time, and all I got was bean curd. ”
said that it is bean curd, most of it is also soy milk, after all, soy milk is prevalent in these years.
"Okay."
Liang Yiyi nodded happily, I have to say that this lady looks shy on the surface, but the more she touches, the more she feels that she is not simple.
"Okay, let's take a look, it's in the backyard."
The county lady nodded, decisively put down the embroidery in her hand, and beckoned Liang Yiyi to go straight to the backyard.
There happened to be a grated soybean in the backyard, and it was being soaked in water, and there was ground soy milk on the side, but it was cold.
Seeing this, Liang Yiyi smiled and said: "Madam, it seems that you already know about bean grinding, then I won't talk about this, the previous ones are the same as making soy milk, the beans are ground, soaked in boiling water, and then grinded." ”
"Well, then, it won't be here, and it won't be able to become tofu in the end." The county magistrate's wife said, pointed to the two maidservants, and said, "I've been thinking with them for a long time, but I don't have a clue. ”
"It's easy next, this soybean milk is cold, first put it in the pot and cook it for a while, boil it until the water is hot, use a burlap bag to squeeze the pulp, filter out the tofu residue, if it is successful in one breath, it is a direct grinding pulp, wash it with boiling water, don't use too much water, it is diluted, soak for a while, soak out the thick slurry, and then filter."
Liang Yiyi said, let's take the soy milk for comparison, this is the first processed soybean milk, and there is tofu residue in it, which should be filtered with a cloth bag to filter out the dregs.
"Eh, that's okay, you said I'll do it."
As the county magistrate spoke, she ordered someone to hurry up.
The pot is hot, just burn some firewood, and it's not troublesome to heat up soy milk, but in ten minutes, all this will be busy.
Subsequently, Liang Yiyi instructed them how to fry the slurry and filter, and when the filtration was finished, the pulp in the pot was pure soybean milk, and they were directly set on fire to boil.
When the soy milk is burned white and almost cooked, let people scoop it into a basin, put some brine, and wait for it to solidify.
The difference between bean curd and tofu is nothing more than the problem of whether the brine is put or not, of course, it is okay to use gypsum without brine, this thing has been a lot this year.
Put it in a basin and solidify for a while, and then filter and squeeze it again with a burlap cloth, this time to filter out the brine, and when the water is dry, the burlap is a square of tofu.
Before and after, but most of the hour, it was completely busy.
"Tsk, so that's the case, I said why I can't do it all the time, but I didn't expect this trick to be the last point."
When the white and tender tofu came out, the county lady was overjoyed, and said happily: "Eat tofu here at night, what good cooking method do you have, tell me, I heard that you are very good at cooking tofu." ”
"The tofu cooking method is very simple, you can eat it cold, and it tastes better with preserved eggs, but you can't eat more preserved eggs, it's not good for your health, in addition, you can also fry it, boil it in white water, put it in the soup, you can also fry it, anything."
Liang Yiyi introduced them one by one, and the two maids on the side listened carefully and took notes from time to time.
When she finished speaking, Liang Yiyi smiled and said: "Anyway, there is still fire in the pot, I will demonstrate it myself, I won't talk about cooking soup and the like, just cook it in one pot, and when it is almost cooked, directly slice the tofu and put it inside, as for the rest, I will do it first." ”
"No, let them do it, you don't do it, you're here to be a guest, it's hard to ask you to do it."
The county magistrate's wife refused, and then let the two maids busy.
I have to say that the two maids are really smart, and they can be thorough at a little, but after a while, the fried tofu has been very proficient, as for the frying, that is, the fried tofu, it is simpler, boiled in oil, boiled golden, and the inside will expand and foam.
Although this kind of fried tofu is a little harder than the one with foaming agent in the previous life, the taste is more pure, especially when boiling hot pot and the like, it is soft as soon as it is hot.
However, not everyone can eat tofu, especially people with gout, and it is very bad to eat too much.
"Madam, try this fried tofu."
When the work was done, Liang Yiyi pointed to the fried tofu in the bowl that had just been cooked, and said: "This can be eaten like this, but you can put the soup and the like, you can put it in it to soak, and it will be soft at once. ”
Although the oil from fried tofu can still be stir-fried, it has moisture, and it doesn't taste good if it's too old.
"Well, that's good, you're really skillful."
The county lady tasted it and found that it tasted really good, so she couldn't help asking, "Can you just fry it and eat it?" ”
"Yes."
Liang Yiyi said, and said: "But just fry it like this, you can fry bacon and the like, if it is fried a little tender, you can directly serve it with sauce, bamboo shoots, fungus, peppers and the like, it tastes good." ”
This is similar to the practice of home-cooked tofu, which is eaten luxuriously, such as the Chu family, at most, they can afford to eat fried tofu.
"Cheng, I'll eat this tonight."
Mrs. County Master nodded, and couldn't help but smile as she spoke: "When the time comes, you can also come to eat and taste my chef's skills here." ”
"Yes, thank you, ma'am."
Liang Yiyi didn't refuse, after all, dinner must have been eaten here, and the county master is not a stingy person.
