Chapter 102: Making Dumplings
After working for a busy noon, until the sun turned west, Baiguoguo finally made more than 20 delicacies.
Although there are few vegetables and a lot of meat, because of the complicated relationship, it has become more attractive than vegetables.
The Chinese New Year's Eve dinner should be eaten together, and naturally it is the most lively to eat together.
As early as when building the last wooden house, Bai Guoguo proposed to make a movable baffle.
In other words, except for a few load-bearing wooden piles, the walls of the whole wooden house are made of movable wooden planks.
On weekdays, it becomes a compartment, and a family lives in one.
As soon as there is a need, just remove the moving planks, and the overall space will be expanded.
Not to mention, the hundred or so people of the tribe at the moment are sitting on the kang and on the ground respectively, which is enough.
There are not that big dining tables, but each family now has its own lunch box.
It is said to be a lunch box, but it is actually a wooden tray that has been improved by ginkgo fruit.
There are more than 20 dishes, many styles, and the portions are also sufficient.
Ginkgo and Dia are responsible for distributing the food, one spoonful per dish per person.
The size of a scoop varies depending on the type of dish.
Like meatballs, that spoonful is about three or two.
If it's a roasted eggplant with meat segments, it is two meat segments and two pieces of eggplant.
Children and the elderly have less portions, slightly more for women, and the most for men.
There is no way, men consume the most, and if they are not full, if they really encounter any danger, they don't have the strength to resist, it is a fatal thing.
The staple food is rice.
Buckets of rice were stewed by Diya.
Although rice is rarely eaten in the tribe, the practice is learned.
Today's Chinese New Year, Bai Guoguo took out a full hundred catties of rice to stew rice.
The spiky rice mountain really makes people like it when they look at it.
It's always the most lively when eating, especially when everyone is praising the best things made by ginkgo fruit while eating, although ginkgo fruit is tired, but he is very happy in his heart.
After eating, a bonfire was lit in the courtyard.
Everyone was bouncing around the bonfire, but it was more lively and happy than the usual night.
Bai Guoguo took the women to play for a while, then returned to the hall and began to prepare dumplings.
The dumpling filling was prepared yesterday, and today it is mainly noodles and dumplings.
If you want to say that the last difficulty is rolling skin, Dia is a slow learner, but there are two women who learn quickly, so Bai Guoguo quickly gave up the work of rolling the skin.
Making dumplings is a technical job, beautiful and ugly, it all depends on the control of two hands.
Ginkgo fruit dumplings are not good-looking, at most they don't show the filling.
So she has only one requirement for teaching people to make dumplings, that is, not to show the filling.
As for how much stuffing can be wrapped, it all depends on the mood of the dumpling maker.
At first, it was still a woman in the bag, but the men were curious, so they also washed their hands and joined in.
Later, the old people couldn't freeze outside, so they went into the house to rest, and saw that the work of making dumplings was very interesting, so they washed their hands and joined in.
So in the end, dumpling-making became a national activity.
Except for the children and a few dozen or so men who were reluctant to do anything, everyone else joined in.
As a result, it has caused the strangeness of dumplings.
A pot of hot water has been boiled, and the dumplings are put into the pot.
Dia and a dozen other women work with Baiguoguo on weekdays, and their mobility is absolutely the first.
So, the work of cooking dumplings was left to them.
