Chapter 56: Sauce Cake
Gu Rao first sandwiched a chopsticks and ginger double pepper rabbit for Beiye, and said with a smile, "This dish won't last long, it's best to finish it this meal." ”
Beiye tasted it, and the sour, numb, spicy and fresh taste permeated his mouth, which made him appetite greater.
"You can finish eating."
He already has a big appetite and loves meat very much, such a delicious rabbit meat, let alone one, and he can eat both of them.
I tasted the spicy and cold chicken again, and the spicy taste made him love it.
Gu Rao asked, "Do you drink?" ”
"Chicken eaten cold is suitable for wine."
Beno shook his head.
"It's better to eat."
Speaking kung fu, I have already eaten a bowl of rice.
Gu Rao, "......"
Sure enough, it's a rice bucket.
It's so edible, no wonder it's so big. -
After dinner, Beiye washed the dishes, and Gu Rao soaked the rice to be used tomorrow in a large basin, and soaked in two large basins before stopping.
-
The next day, Gu Rao got up early in the morning, made a simple egg fried rice for breakfast, and then made rice noodles with Bieye.
The rice noodles made from pure rice are easy to break, and they are also very picky rice, so Gu Rao plans to use potato starch, wheat starch and rice flour to make them together.
There is no sweet potato flour in this world, and there is no potato starch, and the amount used by Gu Rao in stir-frying was small before, which was not easy to arouse the idea of other fields, but this time the amount of rice noodles used was large, and Gu Rao still planned to make the potato starch manually.
First, peel the potatoes, cut them into small pieces, put them in a stone mortar, and let Besano mash them with a wooden stick.
Wrap the mashed potatoes in gauze and squeeze the juice into a basin.
Then use clean water, wash the mashed potatoes several times, put the cleaned water aside to precipitate, and when the precipitation is good, pour out the upper layer of water, and the rest is potato starch.
Taking advantage of the precipitation, Gu Rao and Bie Ye went to the street to buy a stone mill.
After setting it up at home, grind the rice that was soaked yesterday into rice milk.
Add barley starch, precipitated potato flour, and some boiling water to the rice milk, knead them into a dough by hand, add a little oil, and continue to knead the dough until smooth.
The kneaded dough is placed in batches into a homemade wooden dough sheeter, a sieve is placed under the wooden dough sheeter, and the squeezed vermicelli falls into the sieve.
Finally, pour the rice noodles from the sieve cup into boiling water and boil, remove them and put them in cold water to cool down and remove them immediately.
The rice is ready.
Divide the rice noodles into small balls, put them in a sieve to dry, and then add one rice noodle dough at a time when cooking the rice noodles in the casserole.
All this last night, Gu Rao and Beiye were hungry.
Lunch time was almost missed.
Beiye wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "You go and take a rest, I'll cook, and I'll call you when it's done." ”
Gu Rao shook her head.
"I'm so hungry now, and I can't rest well, besides, it was you who worked hard just now, you must be more tired than me, so I'll make a simple and delicious meal to fill my stomach."
Beye's Adam's apple moves slightly.
"What to eat?"
His wife's food surprises him every time, no matter what it is, and many of it is something he has never eaten before.
Maybe it's because she comes from a big family, has seen a lot of food, and has eaten a lot of food.
Gu Rao said, "Sauce fragrant cake." ”
Of course, eating cakes must be accompanied by porridge, so Gu Rao planned to cook green vegetables and lean porridge while making cakes, and it happened that she had specially left a little lean meat before, and this meal could be eaten.
Cut the lean meat into shreds, add cooking wine and oil to marinate, shred the ginger, soak the dried shiitake mushrooms and cut them into cubes, and chop the greens for later use.
When scrambling eggs and fried rice in the morning, the cold rice left over for lunch is boiled in the pot with water, add lean meat, shredded ginger, diced mushrooms, and boil half a fragrant time, continue to boil with chopped vegetables, then turn off the heat, add appropriate salt and pepper, and drop in a few drops of sesame oil.
After the porridge with green vegetables and lean pork is ready, it is time to start making sauce cakes in the medium pot.
First, knead the dough and press it into a pancake about the size of a pan.
Prepare a bowl, add bean paste, soybean paste, oil, tomato paste, sugar, five-spice powder, starch, add a little water and stir well, stir-fry the minced garlic in the pot until fragrant, remove and pour into the sauce.
Fry the cake until browned on both sides, remove it, and brush the cold noodles with a thick layer of sauce with a pig bristle brush that you knew before, and lie about the green onions.
After repeating this several times, the six sauce cakes are stacked on top of each other, cut into triangles with a knife, and served in a basin.
The porridge has long been served in a basin and colded.
Beiye didn't like to drink porridge before, drinking porridge means that the soup is low and watery, maybe the rice is difficult to drink, and he can't drink enough at all, but this time the porridge with green vegetables and lean meat refreshed his cognition of porridge.
It turns out that porridge can be boiled so deliciously.
and a mouthful of green vegetables and lean porridge, and then a bite of sauce and fragrant cakes, my heart was full of satisfaction, after Gu Rao was full, Beiye ate the rest of the porridge and cakes.
Gu Rao originally just wanted to take a nap, but she didn't expect to sleep until dinner in the afternoon, if it wasn't for Beiye calling her to get up and eat, I'm afraid she would be able to sleep until dark.
Beye also made two dishes and one soup, namely shredded potatoes and pork, roasted tofu with bean paste and egg drop soup.
The color of the egg drop soup is almost the same as what Gu Rao made before, and it looks almost perfectly carved, and it seems that Gu Rao has really memorized the steps of making egg drop soup.
The shredded potatoes were also cut very thinly this time, probably because she knew that Gu Rao liked to eat lean meat, so the shredded meat was almost all lean meat, without a trace of fat.
Gu Rao asked, "Haven't you eaten all the meat at home?" ”
Beye said, "I went to weigh half a pound of pork again." ”
Gu Rao nodded, and could see that the tofu was also bought by Beye himself.
She took a sip of egg drop soup first, and her eyes lit up slightly.
"It's delicious!"
I served another bowl to Besano.
"You drink too."
Beiye said with a smile, "When I cooked the soup, I was afraid that the taste would be wrong, but after tasting it a few times, there was still a gap between it and the egg drop soup you cooked yourself." ”
But compared to his previous cooking skills, it can be said that he has made rapid progress as he is now.
Gu Rao tasted shredded potatoes and shredded pork and roasted tofu with bean paste respectively, the taste was medium to high, and it was also a two-course meal.
It is worth mentioning that this dish of roasted tofu with bean paste has never been made by Gu Rao before, and it should be made by Beiye himself.
After the meal, Gu Rao took the initiative to wash the dishes, but was still rejected by Beiye.
Gu Rao was a little helpless.
"You wash the dishes when I cook, and when you cook, shouldn't I wash the dishes? Washing dishes is not a physical job, and you can also boil hot water to wash without getting tired. ”
Besino's persistence in this matter.
"We are husband and wife, so we don't have to be so clear. Moreover, I am a man, so I should take on more. Be well-behaved, don't always think about getting busy, listen to the doctor's words and rest. ”
Gu Rao had no choice but to give up.
"Then I'll go take a shower first."
This morning was busy all morning, and I fell asleep at noon, and now I am in good spirits, only to realize that I have a lot of sweat on my body and have not yet taken a bath.
After taking a shower, I went upstairs to change the quilt covers and sheets on the bed.
