Chapter Twenty-Eight: Boiling Turtle Jelly
Yao Xinyue can boil turtle jelly because when she worked in a dessert shop before, the proprietress of the store saw that she liked it and specially taught her, and listened to the proprietress say that the turtle jelly boiled out in this way is the most authentic turtle jelly.
When he returned home, Yao Xinyue classified the medicinal materials, Yao Jingan chatted with Yao Xinyue all the way on the road, and as soon as he got home, he ran to kill the turtle and washed the turtle shell and took it out.
Watching the operation of the brother and sister, Lu and Su Wenli could only watch dryly.
"Yue'er, is there anything you want us to do?" Lu asked.
Yao Xinyue shook her head: "No, grandma, you go and rest, mother, you can also go and get busy with yours." ”
Lu Shi and Su Wenli glanced at each other, and saw that the two of them really didn't want to help themselves and went back to do their own work, Su Wenli also wanted to embroider all the patterns that Yao Xinyue drew yesterday.
Only the turtle shell is used to boil the turtle jelly, leaving so much turtle meat, it is a pity to throw it away, and it tastes bad to get this thing to eat, which makes it difficult for the Yao family.
Yao Xinyue heard for the first time that turtle meat is not delicious, so don't make up for this stew.
After asking, I found out that it was because people at this time, whether it was stewed soup or stir-fried vegetables, rarely put seasonings, and the family couldn't afford so many seasonings, so they just put a little salt and it was over, how could this be delicious?
Fortunately, in the small vegetable patch in the backyard, the onions and garlic are ready-made, so Yao Xinyue decided to stew a pot of turtle soup for her family today.
Not only that, Yao Xinyue also used the medicinal materials she took from Dr. Shi.
It was the first time for the Yao family to see such a practice, but they didn't expect that the medicinal herbs and food could be stewed together.
Yao Xinyue didn't explain, and began to toss her turtle jelly after putting a pot of turtle soup on the pot.
There is a small stove in the kitchen, which is rarely used in ordinary times, and today Yao Jingan deliberately burned the small stove in order to stew turtle jelly for Yao Xinyue, and Lu also found a sand pot for Yao Xinyue to boil.
Put the tortoise shell and the medicine bag in a sand pot, add water and go to the stove.
If you want to boil a good turtle jelly, you have to boil it for at least eight hours.
It didn't take long for the smell to waft out of the kitchen, making people linger.
When the turtle soup was almost stewed, Yao Xinyue tasted it a little, and the taste was still very good and fresh.
"Grandma, mother, you can taste it." Yao Xinyue handed the spoon to the two people next to her.
Lu Shi took the spoon, tasted it, and his eyes lit up.
"It's delicious, that fishy smell is gone, Li Niang, you can taste it too."
After Su Wenli tasted it, she also nodded again and again: "It's really good, this soup is better than the meals in those restaurants in the city, Yue'er, how did you do it?" ”
Yao Xinyue continued to pretend to be stupid and touched her head.
"I don't know, I just want to do it."
When Lu Shi heard this, his eyes turned slightly red, and he folded his hands and bowed to the sky, saying, "It must be God who has appeared." ”
After speaking, Lu Shi looked at Su Wenli and said, "When the first seven days of the third child have passed, I will take Yue'er to the temple to kowtow to the Bodhisattva." ”
To meet the Bodhisattva? Yao Xinyue is actually a little weak-hearted, after all, she is just a lonely soul from another world, although she has never believed that there are any immortals in this world, but if there is really none, then she is too metaphysical to this world.
Yao Xinyue didn't take it seriously, but Su Wenli remembered it in her heart, after all, Yao Xinyue had changed too much, if she didn't know that this was her own daughter, she really had to wonder if this child had changed people.
