Chapter 71: Mung Bean Cake

Deep-fried pork rind can be eaten dry, or soaked to spice up cold dishes, make soups, or cook with vegetables. The taste of dry food is crispy, fragrant but not greasy, and the soaked food is full of elasticity and smooth taste.

No matter how you eat Lan Xiaoqing, she likes it, and the most important thing is that no one has invented fried pork skin in this era, and when she is ready to launch it, she will definitely be able to sell it.

It's just that compared to pork skin jelly, it takes much longer to make fried pork skin.

Because one of the processes is drying, after the first layer is boiled and scraped clean, it needs to be hung in a cool and ventilated place to dry for about seven days, until the hand can be broken, and then it can be fried in the oil pan.

After drying the pork skin, Lan Xiaoqing went to take out the mung beans that had been soaked last night.

In this era, the price of mung beans was very low, and they were not delicious and could not be sold at a good price, and ordinary people only planted a little on very barren land and went back to raise chickens, ducks and livestock.

Lan Xiaoqing's mung beans were given by Grandma Hu, and she also sent some pigskin jelly to Grandma Hu's house before, and Grandma Hu gave Lan Xiaoqing sweet potato seedlings and mung beans and soybeans. The sweet potato seedlings have been planted, and the soybean blue and small green are all left untouched, and occasionally take out a little stewed pig's feet to eat.

Lan Erlang heard his daughter say that he wanted to use mung beans to make fresh food the night before, and he was very interested, and now he washed his hands and hurried over to help.

Mung bean cake is not difficult to make, the most tedious is to peel the mung beans, each grain has to be cleaned, it takes a lot of time and patience.

Another thing to pay attention to is stir-frying, first add sesame oil, and then add sugar, sesame oil and sugar are easy to scorch, so the whole process of frying can only be used over low heat, and it must be stirred all the time to prevent scorching bottom.

Mung bean cakes are made with sesame oil, which is very fragrant, and finally the mung bean puree is fried into a non-stick dough, and it can be embossed and formed after cooling.

Lan Xiaoqing has not yet made a mold, but she is not so particular about tasting it at home.

She and Lan Erlang tasted a small group first, fragrant but not rushing, sweet but not greasy, and without food additives, very refreshing.

Having grown so big and never eaten such a delicious pastry, Lan Erlang was shocked at the time. Unexpectedly, after the pork skin, my daughter used another inconspicuous raw material to make such a delicious delicacy.

"Dad, how is it, isn't it?"

"It's delicious, my father used to buy pastries for your mother in the pastry shop in the county, the taste is rough and dry, just put a little sugar, crushed red dates, even if it has a sweet taste, it will cost more than ten or twenty dollars a catty." I only bought a few pieces. ”

"That is, a pound of sugar alone costs 30 yuan. The mung bean cake I make puts half a pound of sugar on average for one pound of mung beans. ”

"Half a catty?" Lan Erlang didn't pay attention to how much sugar Lan Xiaoqing put in just now, but now when he heard her say this, he quickly and quietly licked a little mung bean cake residue on his hand. The cost is too high! Not a drop can be wasted!

Lan Xiaoqing continued: "When I finish the mung bean cake, I will sell it for thirty-five yuan per catty." ”

"Thirty-five texts!" Lan Erlang's mouth opened wide, "That's more expensive than sugar, will anyone buy it?" ”

"Dad, didn't you say, what you used to buy for your mother is less than one-tenth of what we do, and it costs more than ten or twenty wen a catty, we make it so delicious, and then use a mold to press a flower and sell it for thirty-five wen a catty."

"But that's in the county seat, and the people in the town are not as wealthy as the people in the county, so they can't sell it at this price."

"Then let's go to the county seat."

After the pigskin jelly, Lan Erlang no longer doubted Lan Xiaoqing's business acumen, he sighed slightly, and said, "Okay, Dad will go with you then." ”
