Chapter Twenty-Eight: Kidney Bean Rolls
Chef He ignored Jiang Yu and didn't dwell on her about it. None of those chefs in the back kitchen have been practicing for several years or even more than ten years, and she is a girl who is really messing around!
The two of them seemed to be at peace with each other, and they stopped talking to each other, but something happened to Jiang An.
As soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival passed, Jiang An always dreamed of his mother. When the Jiang family was still there, Mrs. Jiang loved to be lively, and every time the festival was held as grand as the New Year. He also likes Jiang Yu and Jiang An very much, needless to say, Jiang Yu is the only daughter in the lineage, how can rough men have soft girls to make people hurt.
And Jiang An is the first child in the fourth generation, and he is still the eldest grandson, and Mrs. Jiang also loves him very much, and sometimes even makes some delicious food for Jiang An to show his love for his great-grandson.
At that time, Jiang An was still at the age when he could remember, Wang Wenjun hugged him and fed him delicious food at the family banquet, after feeding, he wanted to play with his little aunt and uncle, Wang Wenjun couldn't resist him, so he could only bow his head and wipe his mouth, and gently told Jiang Yu to hold him carefully.
He dreamed that his mother was still looking at him so lovingly, he was tired of playing and wanted his mother to hug him, but no matter how he stretched out his hand, he couldn't reach his mother's hand, that gentle face, obviously smiling, but the corners of his mouth began to flow blood, and his face became more and more blurry and invisible.
"Mother! Mother! ”
He was woken up by Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu was a little sleepy, but he couldn't help but be full of things like improving recipes. She turned over slightly, for fear of waking Jiang An up with a movement, but saw that his face was crumpled, his breathing was a little short, and he was shouting something inarticulately.
As soon as she saw it, she quickly woke him up, and Jiang An suddenly opened his eyes, covered with sweat.
"An An, what's wrong?" Jiang Yu used a handkerchief to help him wipe the sweat off his forehead, and said with concern.
"Auntie, I dreamed that my mother kissed ......"
Jiang An took a few breaths, and then whispered, his voice still a little hoarse. Jiang Yu's heart was sour, and he stretched out his hand to smooth Jiang An's back, and covered the quilt for him again and coaxed him softly.
"My mother misses you and comes to see you. Don't be afraid, my aunt is here, go to sleep. ”
Jiang An nodded, and Jiang Yu coaxed him to sleep. But Jiang Yu couldn't sleep, and stared at the window with his eyes open all night. The old lady Jiang in the memory of the original owner can be called her love from the bones, knowing that her granddaughter likes to cook, and she has taught her personally.
It's not that no one in the clan has ever complained - the girl's family is just playing, and she can't be taught so seriously. But Mrs. Jiang said seriously, "My granddaughter is naturally able to hold the pot and the spoon!" ”
Thinking of this, Jiang Yu's eyes were a little warm, and he didn't know if it was his own emotions or the emotions of the original owner.
When he went to work the next day, Jiang Yu was rarely a little unenergetic. Recently, she has been mixing well in the back kitchen, and a young guy asked her why she was not energetic today, Jiang Yu said that it was cold last night, a little cold, and she didn't sleep well.
The weather is indeed getting cooler, and the pumpkin cake of lotus paste is gradually not sold, and there is still a limited amount of lotus paste egg yolk mooncakes. Shopkeeper Chen asked Jiang Yu if he had any new dim sum ideas, but Jiang Yu planned to try cooking in his heart, but he couldn't say this now, and only vaguely said that she was still pondering.
But Jiang An's nightmare, Jiang Yu sighed, and still made some soft and delicious snacks to suppress his shock.
Jiang Yu went to the market and bought some kidney beans and red beans, the former was used to make the skin of the kidney bean rolls, and the latter was still used to fry the filling. Kidney beans are relatively large, Jiang Yu added a little alkali and alum when cooking, she remembered that this would make it easier to peel kidney beans, and cook them well, and it was true.
She took out the boiled and peeled kidney beans and put them in a pot to grind them into a little bit of kidney bean puree, and then sifted them through a fine gauze mesh to maintain a delicate and smooth taste, and then let them rest next to it a little after processing.
Then Jiang Yu began to fry the filling, she tried to add some sesame seeds to the bean paste filling, and she didn't know if there would be a peculiar "reaction", but it smelled good.
Spread the kidney bean paste on a damp cloth and slowly roll out the dough-like skin, then spread the bean paste filling and roll it from side to side. This kind of dim sum is a little faster and easier to make than pumpkin pie, Jiang Yu thought about it, and still didn't plan to treat it as a new product for the time being.
She took the food box back to the room, Jiang An was reading, but her eyes were dumbfounded, and she looked like she was in a trance, probably still thinking about the nightmare yesterday. The sound of Jiang Yu entering the door startled him, and he relaxed when he saw that it was Jiang Yu.
"An An, take a rest, my eyes hurt after watching it for a long time." Jiang Yu opened the food box and took out the kidney bean rolls, handed them to Jiang An's mouth and teased him, "You come to taste it?" It's not pumpkin pie this time. ”
Jiang An also laughed and took the kidney bean roll handed by Jiang Yu. The outer skin is soft and glutinous, and the bean paste filling inside is also a little different from usual, he took two more bites and bit into a sesame seed, "Eh! There are sesame seeds! ”
Before he finished eating this piece, Jiang An took the roll apart along the side, "I want to eat like this......"
Jiang Yu felt that he suddenly had inspiration: in addition to the ingredients, he could continue to improve, and the shape could also be changed. If you replace the dried bamboo shoots with bamboo shoot slices and wrap the meat pieces with bamboo shoots like kidney bean rolls, the visual effect will be eye-catching, and the texture will become crispy and soft.
I didn't expect that I just wanted to make dim sum, but I thought about the improvement of this dish. Jiang Yu suddenly felt a little like laughing, finished eating the snacks in his hand in three or two bites, and cleaned up and rested with Jiang An.
