Chapter 22 Making Dumplings
"Young Master Fu, I brought you lunch!" Tao Kite gently opened the food box and respectfully brought the steaming hot and sour shredded potatoes to Fu Yinxiao's table.
Fu Yinxiao looked at the fragrant dishes in front of him, and his stomach rumbled again, in order to avoid embarrassment, Fu Yinxiao's voice was enlarged: "Tao Kite, you are so bold!" delayed the time for young master Ben's dinner, and he didn't come until this time! ”
"Young master, this is a new dish I made, it is precisely because I want to dig up the raw materials of this dish that it has delayed the hour, can you dissipate your anger first, and try this new dish to your liking?" Tao Yuan unhurriedly handed the chopsticks to Fu Yinxiao.
The expression on Fu Yinxiao's face was cloudy, and his stomach couldn't wait to taste it, so in order not to let Tao Yuan laugh, he had to pretend to be calm and cough lightly, and put the shredded potatoes in his mouth.
The sour, spicy and spicy taste soaked into Fu Yinxiao's taste buds, and the aftertaste was the fragrance of green onions, ginger, and garlic, "This is another Sichuan and Shu dish?" ”
Looking at Fu Yinxiao's curious appearance, Tao Yuan knew that Fu Yinxiao was recognized, "Young master, this dish is called hot and sour shredded potatoes, and it is also one of the characteristics of Sichuan and Shu." ”
Fu Yinxiao picked up the rice, ate a bite of the dish and then a mouthful of rice, and the match was just right.
"Oh? You can make a lot of Sichuan Shu dishes! Fu Yinxiao raised his eyebrows, more than half of the dishes had already been eaten.
"I will also have a lot of Sichuan and Shu dishes, and I will bring them to you to try in the future!" Tao Yuan watched Fu Yinxiao eat very satisfied, and was very happy in his heart, remembering that he had something important to ask for.
"That...... Master...... Can you give me an advance payment for tomorrow's food? ”
Tao Yuan pulled the corner of his clothes, a little embarrassed.
Fu Yinxiao stopped his chopsticks, raised his head and looked at Tao Yuan coldly, "Didn't I ask Yun Hao to send you ten taels of silver before?" What are you going to do here? ”
"The young master really doesn't hide it, I bought the old man's baked cake stall that was saved by Yun Hao yesterday, and I still need to find a blacksmith to make a pot and buy some spices, but I bought a baked cake shop, and there is not much silver left, so I ......"
After listening to what Tao Yuan said, Fu Yinxiao had a little complicated emotions in his heart, and he couldn't say how he felt, "Yun Hao! ”
Yun Hao walked into the study and half-knelt beside Fu Yinxiao.
"Go and get fifteen taels of silver for Tao Kite!" Fu Yinxiao turned his face to look at the helpless Tao Kite again, "These fifteen taels of silver should be the reward for this sour and hot shredded potatoes and dinner!" I hope you can make delicious food again! ”
Tao Yuan took the purse handed by Yun Hao in front of her, and smiled, "Thank you, young master!" ”
Leaving the Fu family, Tao Kite walked directly towards the market.
Today's market is still as lively as ever, with the shouts of hawkers and the crowds of roadside stalls.
Tao Kite walked straight to the fish stall where the fish was sold last time.
Because Tao Kite bought all the small fish last time, the fish seller still remembered her, thinking that she was here to return the goods, and was a little timid, so he didn't dare to look directly at Tao Kite, and deliberately avoided it.
"Boss, I want to ask you ......"
"Little girl, we were very clear!" The fish vendor apparently had some weakness in tone.
Tao Kite saw the boss's worried look, and said with a smile: "Boss, do you still have that little fish?" Preferably fry! ”
When the fish seller heard that this girl was going to buy small fish again, he became suspicious, he just bought so much last time, how could he buy it again?
Isn't this girl really crazy?
In order not to get into any other trouble for himself, the fish seller simply did not do anything, and took out all the small fish fry, and sweat oozed from his face.
"Little girl, I won't hide it from you, these fry are here, and few people buy this fish, so I don't plan to raise it, I will sell it all to you if you want it today!" The fish vendor wiped the sweat from his face and patted the large box of fish fry.
Tao Kite has a light in her eyes, and her heart is already happy, it really takes no effort to come here! I was worried that I couldn't find where to find the fry of this little fish, but I didn't expect the boss to have so many here, so I don't have to worry about it anymore.
"Boss, I want all these fry! Hurry up and give me a price! ”
The vendor was no longer surprised when he heard this, but thought that the girl with a smile in front of him was a madman.
"It's the same price as last time, a penny a pound!"
"Okay, deal! Bother the boss to help me send a trip, send it to Tao's house, I'll pay you for the journey! In order to prevent the vendor from running away, Tao Kite said earlier.
After paying, Tao Yuan thought about promising to make dumplings for Tao Shi today, so he went to the meat stall to buy two catties of meat, and when he walked to the vegetable stall, he bought three catties of eggs, a large handful of leeks, and some spices needed.
Tao Yuan counted the things in his hand and almost all the things he was holding, so he hurried home while the afterglow had not yet set.
Tao family.
When Tao Kite arrived home, the owner of the fish stall had already sent all the fry home to avoid the fry from dying, so she went with Tao Shi to put the fry in the separated fish pond.
Tao Shi went home to help his sister choose leeks, cleaned the selected leeks and gave them to Tao Kite.
"Sister, what do you want this leek for?"
In modern times, dumpling wrappers can be bought ready-made, and this is the first time Tao Kneading dough and rolling dumpling wrappers by herself, but for her, a Sichuan chef, this is still not difficult to get started.
"Sister, make some dumplings for you to eat, I haven't eaten meat for a long time, let's wrap some leek meat and leek eggs, you can taste them!"
Tao Shi watched his sister kneading the dough, with some flour on her face, and stood on tiptoe to wipe off the flour for her sister, very happy.
Tao Kite saw his younger brother wiping the flour on his face, and a warmth rose in his heart, in this place, only his younger brother was sincere to himself.
After the dough is kneaded, Tao Kite puts the dough on the table and covers it with a cloth, quickly chops the leeks, lets Tao Shi make a fire, pours oil into the pot, takes five or six eggs and beats them in the bowl, after the oil is hot, Tao Kite scoops out some hot oil and pours it into the bowl that has been filled with chili noodles, and keeps stirring with chopsticks, the room is full of spicy smell, and it smells very fragrant.
Tao Kite slowly poured the egg mixture into the hot oil pan in a circle, and began to stir-fry, and then put the scrambled eggs in the leeks that had been divided.
Although there was no pepper powder in ancient times, but fortunately there were peppers, and the pottery kite grabbed some and put it on the stone mill and grinded it a few times, although it was not so fine, but it was already usable.
Put some ground pepper powder and salt in the filling of the leek eggs, pour some oil, stir for a while, and it is almost done, Tao Kite began to cut the meat into a meat puree, and then put the chopped meat puree into another leek basin, poured some oil into it, added salt, sanpepper powder, soy sauce, sesame oil.
