Volume 1 The Wind Rises in Nanyang Chapter 14 Steamed Bun Conference 3
There is not much to explain about steamed buns, ordinary people can almost do it at a glance, so Wu Yong directly activated the [Cooking] skill.
I saw him pick up a piece of dough that had already risen, put it on the cutting board, and sprinkled the flour while kneading, and after a while, he kneaded the dough into a long strip.
After that, smooth the folds on the long strip by hand, cut the strip evenly into pieces with a knife, and stagger the small pieces back and forth while cutting to prevent them from sticking together.
Then pluck the cut dough one by one by hand to make it up, and finally turn the dough and roll it into a circle.
If this is the case three times, Wu Yong will make 30 small round dough from the first basin of noodles.
At this time, out of the system state, Wu Yong's consciousness took over the body, and while instructing the two women to add water to another iron pot to make a fire, he explained to everyone: "The shape of the relief bun is up to everyone's heart, the circle I made today will look more comfortable in appearance, if any sister wants to save trouble, just cut it into pieces." ”
Then he thought of something, and then said: "When you make the anxiety relief bun for the first time, you don't have to steam it all, you have to leave a small piece of yeast to make it, and the next time you make the worry relief bun, soak the yeast in warm water and mix the noodles together, so that the anxiety relief bun will taste softer." ”
As he spoke, the water on the stove over there had already boiled, and Wu Yong kept explaining to everyone while loading buns.
"Before loading the bun, you must put a layer underneath, you can use linen cloth, you can also use dried leaves, you must completely support the dough, this way, one is to prevent the bun from changing its shape, and the other is to facilitate it to come out after cooking, and it will not stick."
"When loading the buns, be sure to leave enough gaps between the dough, because when steaming, the volume of the bread will increase, and the gap will not be enough, which will cause the bread to squeeze together and affect the appearance."
"Remember, the water must be boiled, the fire must be large, so that the anxiety relief bun can be quickly set up, if the fire is small, the steamed worry relief bun will be flat and black, not only not beautiful, but also the taste will be much worse......
When Wu Yong's thirty dough were all put into the pot and covered with a wooden pot lid, it didn't take long for everyone to smell the tempting fragrance of wheat.
A quarter of an hour later, Wu Yong instructed the woman who burned the fire to reduce the fire and avoid boiling the water dry.
Another tea time, Wu Yong removed the lid of the wooden pot and lightly tapped it on the steamed bun with his fingers.
Wu Yong instructed the woman to withdraw the fire, closed the lid of the pot again, and smiled at everyone: "Everyone wait patiently, let the worry bun be on the air again, and it will be good later." ”
At the same time, he explained the action just now, "The sorrow relief bun must be steamed, the taste is the best, how to judge whether it is cooked or not, you can learn from what I just did, gently click on the worry relief bun with your fingers, and the finger prints are quickly restored, indicating that it has been steamed." If the finger print is restored very slowly or will not be restored, it means that it is not yet cooked, and it will be steamed for a while. Remember not to steam for too long, after a long time, the anxiety relief bun will be blackened, which will not only affect the taste, but also be ugly. ”
At this time, everyone smelled the rich fragrance of steamed buns, and couldn't help but swallow their saliva, and there were so many teenagers who were anxious and liked to coax, and they immediately shouted.
"Wu Yong, isn't your brain good yet, you have said so much, can we let so many old men learn to cook?"
"Yes, we all get up early in the morning and wait to eat the bread to relieve our worries, not to listen to your nonsense, but keep these words and tell your sisters......"
Wu Yong was a little speechless when he heard these words, he was busy all morning, and he didn't drink a sip of water until now, just to teach everyone to make these two kinds of food, but he didn't expect to be blamed.
But before Wu Yong could say anything, several elders around the young man reprimanded them.
At this time, Wu Yong felt that the steamed buns were almost ready, so he lifted the lid of the wooden pot, found two thick wooden sticks, and moved the steamed buns and bamboo strips to the board together with the woman who was burning the fire, and quickly turned all the steamed buns separately onto the board.
"This is the relief of worries? How can a small dough become so big? ”
Everyone stared at the thirty fist-sized steamed buns on the board with wide eyes, and the expressions on their faces were different, some surprised, some eager, and some admired......
Then the problem arose, there were only 30 steamed buns, but there were 100 families here, and the number of people reached nearly 1,000.
In the end, it was decided to divide the number of people in each household first, and distribute it to the largest number of families first.
Thirty steamed buns were quickly divided among the thirty heads of households by Zhu Lidian and Li Tiandian, and when many of them picked them up, finger prints appeared on the white steamed buns, and they couldn't help but feel a sense of shame in their hearts, and secretly vowed that if they encountered such food again in the future, they must wash their hands before taking it.
They were stunned, and someone began to urge: "Taste what this anti-anxiety bun tastes like, if you don't eat it, I can do it for you!" The big guys are waiting. ”
At this time, the heads of households began to break up the worries, at least divided into four. Countless pairs of eyes at the scene were staring closely at the people who had been given the relief buns.
The young children were given small pieces of anxiety relief buns, and they were all stuffed into their mouths, chewed and swallowed, swallowed into their stomachs, and then had a strong mouth. Such a delicious anti-anxiety bun made their expressions look like they were intoxicated when they were lucky enough to eat it.
As for the older men who got the relief buns, they first looked up and glanced around, and then arched their hands with everyone, and then put the relief buns to their mouths and took a small bite.
The moment the saliva and the anxiety relief bun came into contact, it seemed to have an inexplicable reaction, soft and glutinous, and the more you chewed, the sweeter it became. For a while, I didn't remember anything, and now I only have delicious worries in my heart, eyes, and mouth.
There was a hot-tempered person, after eating, he shouted: "Straight lady thief, how can there be such a delicious relief bun!" ”
What's more, he shed tears while eating, which stunned the onlookers.
The crowd began to talk about the children who had eaten the bread.
They all said that it was so delicious, and they couldn't say how to eat it.
After a while, the old men who were assigned to the relief of worries finished eating one after another, and some people wiped the corners of their eyes and sighed: "It is worthy of eating in the realm of too void, and the relief of worries is worthy of the name, after eating, it does make people forget their troubles and sorrows." ”
This made everyone who didn't get the relief bun even more anxious, and even a few naughty half-grown people wanted to take advantage of everyone's inattention to steal the raw dough to eat, if Wu Yong hadn't found out in time, maybe let them get it, ruining the food is a trivial matter, if they choked, maybe there would be some unpredictable changes.
