"Yes, in that celadon jar behind you."

Banniang turned around and lifted the lid of the jar with difficulty, and in the muslin bag inside, the ground fine wheat noodles, Banniang was a little regretful, if it was rice noodles, it would be better. The kind of potstickers made directly in the countryside by wheat noodles are really not easy to digest, and the potstickers made by the local method in the countryside are still eaten by my grandfather when he was a child, and he was addicted to gluttony one day, so the chef at home tried to make them, and Banniang also practiced it once.

If it is spread into cakes, like the live fish potstickers that are often eaten in restaurants in later generations, it actually loses its flavor and is troublesome. Or according to the local method in the countryside to make more mellow wheat, and let the family eat less when the time comes. When I think about it, I laugh again, just such a pot, one person can only get half a piece, a large family, where can I eat more?

I put two bowls in a bowl, poured them into a porcelain plate, mixed them with water and made them into a paste, and still put them on one side, so I went to Wu's place, took the washed miscellaneous fish, and made the most laborious miscellaneous fish potstickers first.

Zhu Shi was also surprised when he saw that she was busy: "Banniang, how can you be so skilled?" ”

Banniang made an excuse: "I watch my mother, sister-in-law and seventh sister do it every day, I'm not that stupid, I think about it every day, and I am naturally familiar with it." ”

Although Zhu saw that she was busy, she didn't have much hope, and when she saw that Banniang told her to start the fire, she also started the fire and used a small hot pot. Banniang waited for the pot to be hot, took his spoon and scooped a spoonful of lard from the oil tank and put it into the pot, and when the oil melted, add green onions, ginger and garlic, until the fragrance was fried, and then the small fish washed in the blue were put into the pot one by one and lined up. Zhu Shiqi said: "Banniang, what kind of practice is this?" How does it smell like this? ”

Banniang smiled proudly: "Mother, just wait, it will taste more fragrant in a while." ”

While turning the fish over, I added salt, thinking that there was no soy sauce, and I happened to have sauce bought from the sauce shop at home, so I put some in it to improve the situation. I thought again, if I can find a way to make soy sauce, I can also contribute to the vegetable blue project of the people of the Great Song Kingdom, but unfortunately how to produce this soy sauce, she can't!

Seeing that the fish was crispy, he poured a bowl of water on the fish, washed his hands again, took the batter that had been grounded, slapped it into a thin cake shape piece by piece, pasted it around the pot, pasted the cake, took a spoon, scooped some fish soup from the pot, poured it on the cake around it, and then covered the pot with a lid and waited for it to be cooked and burned thoroughly.

From time to time, Wu had already washed things, and Banniang confessed to let Wu look at the pot, turn over the fish in the pot every once in a while, and call her when the water in the pot was about to boil dry. So he went to the house to find the thin cones that Zhu usually used for needlework, cut the yellow cockroaches that had been stunned one by one by the well, picked out the dirt, washed them with water, returned to the stove and cut them into half-finger-sized sections, only picked the backbone meat and left, and threw the rest into the pot and boiled it with the fish.

After a while, the miscellaneous fish potstickers were done, so that Zhu Shi put out the fire first, and put a layer of wheat cakes around it, which had become dark gold, and the fish soup was burned through the circle below, and it smelled terrible.

It's been a long time since I've eaten such a fragrant thing, but her parents haven't tasted it yet, so she had to endure it first, and when she saw that Zhu and Wu were staring, she took a piece of fish with chopsticks and handed it to Zhu's mouth: "Mother, you taste the saltiness." ”

There was steaming hot on it, Zhu blew it, but he didn't care about the heat, swallowed it in his mouth, and praised it again and again: "It's so delicious, so fragrant, it's really delicious." ”

Wu also swallowed saliva on the side, and Banniang saw that it was funny, and took a piece of fish belly meat to Wu: "Mother said okay, sister-in-law, you can also taste it." ”

Wu Shi also couldn't wait to stretch his head, swallowed it in one gulp, and savored it, with an expression of enjoyment in his eyes: "Little Eighth Sister, what kind of method is this?" How does it smell so good? ”

Banniang's hanging heart was completely put back into her stomach, and she said proudly: "My mother and sister-in-law wait for me to finish these dishes, and I guarantee that they are no worse than this pot of miscellaneous fish." ”

As he spoke, he took the plate, filled the pot with a large plate of miscellaneous fish, washed the pot, and decided to make another oil waterfall shrimp. Zhu and Wu were busy laying hands, and half an hour later, on the table in the kitchen, several delicious dishes with both color and flavor were lined up.

Miscellaneous fish pot stickers, fried shrimp, fried dried fish, soft long fish, braised carp, crucian carp soup, steamed crucian carp, fried vegetables, tofu shrimp and green vegetable soup, those few small blue crabs, because thinking that the crab is far from being fat at this time, even if it is steamed, there is no taste, so I simply went there, thinking that I would be free tomorrow, wrap a few crab roe buns, and let my dad try it.

There are a lot of fish and shrimp, and the rest are all carefully coded by Wu Shi with salt, and they will be eaten slowly in the future.

At this time, it was already dark, and thousands of lights were on. Banniang's face was sweaty, and she washed her hands and face with water, and then went to inform her father and brothers to have dinner. Zeng Budo walked out of the west study and said with a smile: "What did your mother cook today?" After smelling the fragrance for half a day, I didn't even bother to read the book again. ”

Banniang stepped forward and grabbed her father's hand, and said with a smile: "I'll know when I bring it up in a while, and my father will try it to see if it's delicious." ”

After Zeng Budo sat down, Banniang went to the backyard to call her brothers. Qi Niang also happened to wash the clothes that the brothers and sisters changed after they came back, and Banniang quickly helped dry them and went back to the front yard together.

Zhu's and Wu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have already brought the food to the table.

Staring at the table full of dishes full of color and aroma, except for the Zhu family and the Wu family, the family was stunned. Half a ring, Zeng Bu said without doubt: "Today's dish, is it made by the eldest daughter-in-law?" ”

The old wife has been married to him for more than ten years, and he knows the craftsmanship very well, and there is no such thing as attaining the Tao once.

Wu was ashamed for a moment, and shook his head with a smile. Zeng Ziye folded the table from the side: "Where can she make such a dish?" He was a little puzzled, "Could it be that you went back to your mother's house in Nancheng County to learn a new dish?" ”

Fortunately, except for the green vegetables, the stir-fry method is used, and the others can't be divided between stir-frying and boiling, so no one mentions this method.

Banniang stepped forward and took the chopsticks, pulling Zeng Budo: "Daddy, don't care who made it, you taste it first?" ”

The family then sat down in turn. The meal was full of joy and praise. In the end, I learned that Banniang made it herself.

Zeng Zigu smiled: "I really can't imagine that the eighth sister still has this talent for cooking." I went to the countryside and learned from the old woman for a while, and I was able to make such a delicious meal. ”

Father Zeng even boasted: "This meal is the most delicious meal that my father has ever eaten in his life." In the future, if Banniang gets married, her father will be greedy, but how can she be good? ”

"Then Banniang won't marry, if not, recruit a son-in-law, and Banniang will be at home in the future, working as a cook for her father and sister-in-law."

The family laughed: "How can a girl's family mention their marriage, so shameless?" ”

Banniang asked her eldest brother Zeng Ziye with a smile: "Big brother, you have seen a lot of advertisements outside, you said, with your sister's craftsmanship, if you open a restaurant, what will happen to the business?" ”

Zeng Ziye's appetite for eating was greatly opened, and while asking the Wu family to help him add more bowls of rice, he dragged the text and said with a smile: "In terms of the level of today's dishes alone, it should be regarded as a first-class skill among chefs. ”

Wulang was busy helping on the side: "That's natural, my eighth sister's craftsmanship is not comparable to the imperial chef in the palace, but at least it is not worse than the chef's skills in the big restaurant, not to mention that when my father and brother were outside, I also had a good meal, just said that I and my fourth brother were in Linchuan, and I also went to some big families as guests, which family's dishes may not be as delicious as the eight sisters make today." And my sister only learned today, she can make such a level, it can be seen that the talent is extraordinary, if you practice in the future, wouldn't it be a hundred times better than what you did today? If you want to talk about me, what kind of restaurant to open is to open a restaurant, and you can. ”

Qi Niang secretly glanced at Banniang on the side, and secretly wondered in her heart, the brothers and Jue'er are men, and it is just careless and careless, she chats with Aunt Zhang all day long, Qi Niang occasionally asked Aunt Zhang how to make fish and shrimp delicious, but she listened to it in her heart, Aunt Zhang didn't say these practices, and besides, Aunt Zhang's lunch meal, although it is not bad, but it really can't be compared with these dishes made by Banniang.

Zeng did not doubt that after all, he was old, although he felt that he was still exhausted, but he did not dare to be greedy, and after eating seventy percent full, he put down his chopsticks, although he still wanted to eat the salty wheat flour cake soaked in fish soup again, and Banniang said that the cake could not be eaten more, and it was not easy to restrain it, so he also put it down. After listening to the words of Goro and Da Lang, he said with a straight face: "What kind of restaurant do you open?" She is a girl's family, how can she show up and be a husband? You brothers also have to study and go to school, even if Banniang opens a food shop, do you want to ask her to take care of the shop herself? Who can help her? After eating, it is only serious to go to school. ”

Banniang actually knew that what Daddy Zeng said made sense.

Her brothers want to test for fame, and she is only twelve years old, so it is not easy to open a restaurant and run it herself. I can only think about this for the time being. But with a skill in hand, it will always be useful one day, and now it is still serious to let the family eat good food every day, so he smiled and said: "Dad is right." I just need to make good food for my father and brothers, outsiders, who has the blessing to eat the food made by Zeng Banniang herself? Only our father, mother, brother, sister-in-law, sister-in-law, sister-in-law, and nephews can. ”

The family was happy to eat, and it was even more joyful to see her pride on her little face.

For a meal, no one mentioned the rule of eating without saying a word, and when the meal was over, the dishes and bowls were exhausted. Wu Shi rinsed her mouth because her belly was getting bigger and bigger, and Banniang helped her to go for a walk, one is to eliminate food, and the other is to give birth after exercise, Banniang and Wu naturally went to the kitchen to clean up the dishes and chopsticks.

Waiting to accompany Zhu's front and back yards to shake around, send Zhu back to the room, Banniang and Wu have cleaned up, Wu stayed on the stove to boil water, the family washed up at night, Qi Niang then remembered that the day after tomorrow is the first day of the fifth month, has entered the Dragon Boat Festival, then said to Banniang: "The day after tomorrow to start the festival, there are always clansmen who need to give gifts, and other things are ready, just listen to my sister-in-law said, the family wants to give people a fan, but no, Banniang, are you tired?" If you are not tired, call the fourth or fifth brother, let's go to the night market and buy some back? I'm afraid that if I buy it tomorrow, I won't be able to catch up, and if I can't buy it, I'll be in trouble. ”

"After the Dragon Boat Festival, what do you do when you buy a group fan?" Banniang Qi said.
