Chapter Seventy-Three: Cooking Skills
73
The next morning, before dawn, Mo Huihui got up to prepare breakfast, and took it to the field to eat at noon. Because the fields are far away, and some of the fields are still in the mountains, it is a waste of time to go back and forth, and many people bring dry food and water to eat in the fields to save time back and forth.
By the time Mo Xiaomi woke up, her mother and grandfather had already eaten enough.
There are two white steamed buns, a few pieces of bacon and a plate of vegetables on the table, this is Mo Xiaomi's breakfast, and the lunch is those peach crisps and sugar triangles that grandpa bought.
Today, Mo Xiaomi wants to show her cooking skills to her family, and she has to think about what to cook at noon!
After eating, Mo Xiaomi went to wash the clothes first.
When I arrived at the river, most of the laundry people were girls from the family, because the adults had gone to the ground, so they let the children wash the clothes when they didn't have time to do it.
Mo Xiaomei was also there, and when she saw Mo Xiaomi, she said, "Xiaomi, here!" You're a little late today, and I'm going to finish washing it right away. ”
"Hehe, I don't have a lot of clothes, and I can wash them right away." Mo Xiaomi was talking and washing clothes.
Because they were busy, they didn't have time to chat.
After washing clothes, saying goodbye to Mo Xiaomei, and after returning home, carefully prepare meals.
After drying the clothes, Mo Xiaomi took the small basket and went to the vegetable garden on the right side of the yard, because the surrounding area of their house was empty, and the nearest neighbor, Aunt Li, was still thirty meters away, so there was enough space to open a vegetable garden next to the house.
Cucumbers, beans, green beans, tomatoes, peppers, amaranth, baby greens, and small melons, but they haven't produced melons yet.
Mo millet picked two tomatoes and a large handful of leeks.
There is no briquette stove or gas stove at home, only a large earthen stove, but this is difficult for Mo Xiaomi.
After Mo millet selects leeks, wash them and dry them.
Seeing that it was still early and it was too early to cook, I took a broom, cleaned inside and out, and wiped everywhere with a rag. In some places, it is a little high, and it stands on the bench. In short, she did everything she could to help her mother.
Look at the old swinging table clock at home that has struck eleven times, and it's already eleven o'clock.
Mo millet and noodles, put aside the noodles to rest, and then start to make stuffing, cut leeks, soak vermicelli, and prepare to make vermicelli leek boxes.
Mo Xiaomi cleaned the clay pot containing rice at home, put it outside, and used the sun to expose it to sterilization.
After the dough is awakened, start to knead into small dough, then roll it into a dough sheet with a diameter of about 15 cm, then put the adjusted leek vermicelli filling on the dough sheet, then close the top sheet, press hard, and become a half-moon-shaped leek box.
Mo Mi rolled out sixteen dough sheets, which can make sixteen leek boxes.
Mo Mi started to burn the fire, the straw fire was very small, and when the pot was hot, he put five leek boxes in it. Mo Xiaomi turned over the leek box in the pot and refilled the straw at the bottom of the pot, and in only fifteen minutes, the leek box was ready, all of which were placed in a basket with a clean cage cloth, and covered with a cage cloth.
Mo Xiaomi then boiled tomato and egg drop soup in a small pot on the side, then put it in a ceramic jar that had been exposed to the sun before, covered it, stuck two bowls on it, and tied ropes to the ears and noses on both sides of the jar.
So Mo Mi held a stick, a bamboo basket with a box of vermicelli and leeks hung in front, and a freshly cooked tomato egg drop soup in the back.
Mo Xiaomi wore a straw hat, locked the door, and went to the field to deliver food to her grandfather and mother.
