027 Making a cake
Milk tea is simple and easy to make, and the next thing is the cake, the cake cake powder that Gu Qing bought directly in the virtual mall.
As long as it is sifted, it can be used directly, and the only difficulty is whipped with cream.
Yang Pei was full of enthusiasm after tasting the taste of milk tea, and made the oven in one morning, and waited for the mud to dry before use.
When it was almost noon, Gu Nuo and Gu Yu finished feeding the chickens and picked up dozens of eggs from the chicken nest.
Originally, Gu Qing bought laying hens, 50 of which were given to 10 of them in the old house, 6 of them were eaten, and 34 were left, so it was not a problem to pick up 30 eggs a day.
Eggs in this era are a good thing, and the people in the village are reluctant to eat them, so they save them and wait until they come back for some oil and salt when they catch up with the market.
"Eldest sister......" Gu Nuo dared to speak, "Can I eat a small bite of eggs, just a small bite ......"
He wasn't really greedy, he just wanted to taste what eggs tasted like.
Gu Qing searched for the memories of the original body, and suddenly had a dark face.
A month ago, when there were still chickens in the house, every day an egg entered the stomach of the original body, and there were two and a half children in the family, and there were three men working in the fields, she did not understand how the original body could eat the eggs with peace of mind......
"Yes, of course." Gu Qing nodded, "Go out first to help harvest the mushrooms, and after collecting the mushrooms, let Brother Zhu make you egg pancakes!" ”
The villagers who took out the mushrooms have lined up in a long line, and there are not so many people before, and now the mushrooms in the mountains near the point have been picked, and the villagers have to walk a long way to pick the mushrooms, and the distance is too far to come back, and many people are reluctant to come back at noon.
The mushrooms, which were only twenty or thirty people, were put away quickly, and in less than ten minutes, they were all cleared.
Zhu Han went in to cook, Mo Li chopped firewood, Yang Pei carried water, and the two small ones went to the field to pick a lot of fresh and tender vegetables and came back, and the village doctor said that the eldest sister had to eat light.
Gu Qing wanted to help choose vegetables together, but the two of them drove them to sit under the eaves, and Gu Yu also poured her a bowl of water intimately.
"Eldest sister, the doctor said, you have to recuperate!"
Gu Qing had no choice but to go to the kitchen to help light the fire, but as soon as he entered, he was kicked out by Zhu Han.
"Master, the kitchen is hot, you hurry out, I will fry Xiaonuo's egg cake!"
"Don't just fry Nuonuo, this big family, at least 20 of them." Gu Qing has already figured out the amount of food for these people, let them let go of their stomachs and eat, I am afraid that 30 eggs can be eaten in one meal.
"Twenty?" Zhu Han took the spoon and said: "Master, this is too much, I still make braised pork!" ”
"You're not hungry for eggs?" Gu Qing sneered: "Don't pretend, you people haven't eaten eggs for a long time, listen to me, 20 can't be missing, otherwise I'll stay in the kitchen and watch you beat eggs!" ”
Zhu Han was helpless, so he had to say: "Knowing the head of the house, I must have fried all 20 eggs, you go out quickly, you don't have to get hot enough to heat stroke." ”
Staring at Gu Qing going out, Zhu Han took 20 eggs and broke a hole in the stove, beat them into a basin and stirred well, ready to make omelettes.
As soon as he turned his head, he saw Gu Nuo standing at the door of the stove room, saliva flowing onto his clothes.
He smiled and lifted the lid of the pot, and suddenly the aroma was fragrant, and said with a smile: "Xiaonuo, is it fragrant?" ”
Gu Nuo stared blankly at the pot: "Fragrant!" ”
I thought that Brother Zhu was going to give him a piece, but Brother Zhu put the lid back on: "It's fragrant, hurry up and fan the head of the house!" ”
Gu Nuo pouted, Brother Zhu had changed and would bully him.
The meal was quickly ready, with a large pot of braised pork, a large pot of egg cakes, and a portion of fried vegetables in lard.
Except for Gu Qing who drank millet porridge, the rest of the people were white rice.
Gu Qing took a chopstick egg cake and put it in Gu Nuo's bowl.
"The omelet you want, eat it quickly."
Gu Nuo took a bite and put it in his mouth, his eyes widened, oh my God, it was so delicious, it turned out that this was the taste of eggs.
Several people looked at Gu Nuo who was picked up by Gu Qing with envy, and Gu Yu sat still with chopsticks, only looking at Gu Qing directly, which couldn't be more obvious.
"The eldest sister will also clip it to you!" After Gu Qing clamped Gu Yu, she found that there were still three lines of sight falling on her, and the meaning was self-evident.
"Come, one person will clip a chopstick for you, hurry up and eat, there will be something to do later!" Gu Qing pondered about baking while eating, he could knead the noodles and let them ferment before going to bed at night, he could bake bread tomorrow morning, and try to make cakes this afternoon.
After a few people finished eating, they began to get busy. Gu Yu and Gu Nuo went to pick wild fruits, especially raspberries, Gu Qing beat eggs and separated the egg yolks and egg whites, Mo Li and Yang Pei were responsible for beating the egg whites, and Zhu Han sifted and adjusted the batter.
Add the egg yolks and egg whites in turn, stir well, and let it sit for 10 minutes, which is just right to turn the fire in the oven.
The oven has to be roasted with charcoal after the firewood is burned, otherwise there will be a smell of smoke, and when the firewood is finished, Zhu Han shook the batter in the plate hard, shaking all the bubbles out, and then it can be baked in the oven.
It was baked over there, Mo Li and Yang Pei were whipping the cream on the side, waiting for the cake embryo to be baked, and the cream was also done.
Gu Yu and Gu Nuo picked a bag of wild fruits and came back, most of which were raspberries that Gu Qing had eaten last time.
The two washed the wild fruits, drained the water, and cut the big fruits into small pieces according to Gu Qing's request.
Then he instructed Zhu Han to put a layer of cake embryo and a layer of cream, put fruit cubes in the cream and another layer of cake embryo on top of it, scrape the cream flat, and finally put all the remaining fruit grains on it.
After finishing it, he asked Mo Li to make two pots of milk tea, Gu Qing cut out half of the cake and put it aside, and the rest of the cake was already impatient.
"You've worked hard for so long, so let's taste the fruits of your labor!"
As soon as Gu Qing's voice fell, Zhu Han immediately divided the cake into six parts, one for each person.
After taking a bite, Gu Nuo's eyes widened again, oh my God, it was so delicious, he had never eaten such a delicious thing, and he couldn't wait to swallow his tongue too.
It turns out that his eldest sister is so powerful, she can cook anything delicious!
"Eldest sister, you are too powerful!"
"That's right, master, this craftsmanship is really amazing!"
"Master, do we really open a dessert shop?"
"This milk tea with this cake is really delicious, eldest sister, I like you so much." Gu Yu hugged Gu Qing and took a sip on Gu Qing's face, kissing Gu Qing's face with cream.
Yang Pei and the others were looking at it from the side, their faces were flushed, and they didn't dare to look directly.
After a few people finished eating, they rested for a while, and the mushroom seller came, Gu Qing finished collecting the mushrooms and cut the half of the cake left in the mold into small squares, and then put it smoothly into the bamboo basket.
Carrying a basket in one hand and a pot of milk tea in the other, he walked out of the house.
There are still people in the rice field at the door.
When Gu Qing walked over, many people took the initiative to greet her, which would never have happened before.
