55. Smell the smell and eat the fragrance
Aunt Liu still couldn't cheer up after listening to Song Lingxue's words, how could she make it stink like this, and the pigs might not be able to eat it.
It's just that Aunt Liu glanced at Song Lingxue's smiling appearance, and suddenly remembered that the two bowls of things called roasted fairy grass that she brought over today looked like black tofu, and it tasted softer and smoother, could it be made of tofu?
Song Lingxue saw Aunt Liu's eyes light up, and she didn't know what she had in mind, so she heard Aunt Liu say, "You took that one called burning fairy grass in the morning, but you made it with this tofu?" ”
"It's not burning fairy grass, it's another kind of food, you can use your stinky tofu to make it." Song Lingxue is embarrassed, even the tofu brain is not as smooth and elastic as the burning fairy grass.
"Why eat this stinky tofu, can you eat it?" Aunt Liu was very suspicious, but when she saw Song Lingxue's confident face, she also had a little more expectation.
In fact, Song Lingxue didn't actually operate it, but she just watched the more detailed process of making stinky tofu, and she also remembered it in her heart.
However, as a senior foodie, she has eaten many kinds of stinky tofu, except for the different sauces, the others are nothing more than stinky and spicy peculiar tastes, but they are always addictive.
Song Lingxue was not in a hurry to say the specific method, but first asked Aunt Liu and them to take out the big square wooden drawer for pressing tofu at home, and then asked them to find some clean straw.
Spread a layer of straw in these wooden drawers, put a thin piece of dry gauze, and then slice the stinky tofu into small and not small, not thin or thick tofu blocks, and then neatly place them on top, and finally spread a layer of thin gauze, continue to spread a layer of straw on top, and finally press the thick lid of the big wooden drawer.
In this way, I made those buckets of stinky tofu, and there were a lot of them, and I made three wooden drawers full.
Song Lingxue then explained: "In winter, the time should be longer, now it is summer, you can put this under the grass shed, but to ensure ventilation do not cover it with other things, to ventilate, just put it for three days, when the time comes, open a wooden drawer to see, if the tofu block grows an inch long white hair, and it is black, that is good, don't panic to take it out, eat it now, the pot is heated and fried, and the sauce is poured after frying, the smell smells stinky and delicious, and it is very peculiar." ”
Aunt Liu listened to what Song Lingxue said, and she didn't care about wondering how she knew that there was such a way to eat, but asked curiously: "What sauce?" ”
Song Lingxue gave her a detailed explanation of how to make the sauce, fortunately, the seasoning at this time is quite complete, chili soy sauce and garlic peppercorns are available, and people in this countryside will also make their own bean spicy sauce, although it is not as good as the kind of bean paste in later generations, but it is fried with green onions, mixed with rice noodles or sandwiched into steamed bread cakes to eat, the taste is very fragrant.
The sauce she said is also very simple, stir-fry with green onions and garlic in the farmer's own bean spicy sauce, put spicy seeds and peppercorn noodles, and finally sprinkle a handful of sesame salt, which is enough.
"I used to deliver tofu, and I never sold food." Although Aunt Liu listened to Song Lingxue's description, her mouth was already a little overflowing, but she still thought of the key point, which was the problem of sales.
Song Lingxue laughed: "Your family sells this stinky tofu, and my family happens to sell roasted fairy grass, which happens to be a perfect match." ”
Song Lingxue also thought about it when she came, Aunt Liu is her only friend here, how can she help, the stinky tofu business is good, she can not only help her family deal with the unsold tofu, but also make a lot of money, this is a very small cost and a stable business.
And she is not busy in vain, she was still worried about the business of burning fairy grass, she couldn't support it alone, with Aunt Liu's companionship, plus they sell sour and hot stinky stinky tofu, and a sweet and refreshing roasted fairy grass, isn't it a perfect match.
"That's a good feeling, I'm busy for a while anyway except when making tofu, and I'm an idler after the rest, and my Yingzi strings the east end to the west every day, unlike your Shilan who can stay quietly in the house and do embroidery work, I will also let her go together." Aunt Liu was completely relieved at this time, looked at the drawers under the grass shed, and gratefully took Song Lingxue's hand.
"Pear blossom, you have done my family a great favor, if this business can really be successful, I will give you a share."
Song Lingxue knew that there was already the kind of dry stock in the early days, for example, several companies did business together, and they were divided into several dry shares according to the amount of money contributed, Song Lingxue didn't want to get this cheap, she just wanted to help.
Aunt Liu saw that Song Lingxue was silent, knowing that she was unwilling to take advantage, she was warmly moved in her heart, and pretended to be angry and said, "What's the matter, you still don't look down on my two shares." ”
Aunt Liu also knew that her friend was really helping her, and she didn't treat her as an outsider, otherwise people could have made this stinky tofu by themselves, which was almost equivalent to a business, and she might not be able to make much money in the future.
"How can I be, I just want my family to do business, and I have to take advantage of your chicken bus, and I can't hold back the business of Xiaoben to buy a car, and I don't have any money." Song Lingxue said with a smile that the village is also twenty miles away from the town, and if you carry the burden every day, you will not be tired to death.
"It's just a car, I can still use it, you have done my family a great favor this time, I have to give you a twenty percent dry share, we can't sell your conscience and take such a valuable prescription without saying anything." Aunt Liu gently patted the back of Song Lingxue's hand and said undoubtedly.
Then he looked at Yao Santiao, who had not spoken on the side: "Why don't you hurry up and say a few words." ”
Although Yao Santiao is really honest, but after all, he has been in the tofu business for several years, and he didn't expect that this stinky tofu could still be used for food, and he was also excited, he thought that if the food was done, his family would have less losses and make money, and he didn't have to feel guilty, so he was naturally very grateful to Song Lingxue, and after listening to his daughter-in-law's words, he hurriedly spoke: "What the child said is, brother and sister, don't shirk." ”
Seeing this, Song Lingxue also understood that the two of them were sincere, so naturally it was difficult to refuse, but she still thought about it for a while and said: "Then I agreed, but I only take one percent of the shares, you don't have to say more." ”
Song Lingxue's attitude was very firm, and Aunt Liu had no choice but to do this, and she was afraid that she would get angry if she talked too much.
In the end, the two talked about some follow-up things, when Song Lingxue was about to go home, it was already dark, and Aunt Liu wanted to keep her for dinner, but she refused, and she was stopped from sending her.
In the end, when Song Lingxue left, she still couldn't get rid of being stuffed into a small basket by Aunt Liu, which contained two pieces of white and tender fresh tofu, which she had just made today.
The crescent moon on the eastern hill of Xiaoyu had just risen, the moonlight was not too bright, and the road was a little dark, but Song Lingxue, who was familiar with the way, also returned home quickly.
After the family had dinner, the tofu was put in the water by Liu, and they all went back to the house to rest.
