Chapter 27 Bean curd rice, planting chili peppers
Hand-ground tofu is far more fragrant than machine-ground tofu.
Su Jian looked at the more and more bean juice in the goose yellow pot, and then looked at Zhan Lei, concentrating on helping her add beans, that careful, afraid of putting too much for a while, and afraid of putting less for a while, she felt that Zhan Lei was really cute. But at the same time, it is also very distressing, not for anything else...... A child of about four years old, who is the most innocent age, lives so carefully that he is even pleasing people......
A flash of emotion flashed quickly in Su Jian's eyes, she couldn't think about it anymore, and changed the topic: "Goose Huang, go to the kitchen to boil a pot of hot water, and then take the wooden barrel, bamboo basket and cloth bag I prepared before in my room to the kitchen." ”
"Yes." After making sure that the last drop of bean juice had fallen into the basin, Goose Huang turned around and began to busy with what Su Jian had ordered.
"Sister-in-law, if you're tired, I'll help you press it." As Zhan Lei spoke, he had already started to help Su Jian massage his arm. He forgot that he had water stains on his hands, and when he helped Su Jian massage, he wet her sleeves, and he stiffened, couldn't he really do anything?
"Our Xiao Lei is awesome, the beans just now are great, when my sister-in-law makes tofu next time, will you still help my sister-in-law?"
Zhan Lei quickly raised his head after listening to Su Jian's words, seeing that Su Jian was serious, and he didn't care about the clothes that were wet by him, he smiled, only hugged Su Jian, rubbed it, and didn't speak.
Su Jian saw that Zhan Lei was almost hugging her, she patted his head: "Sister-in-law is busy now, if you want to go back, go back, if you don't want to go back, just play in the yard, and sister-in-law will make you something to eat at night." ”
"Well, I'll just play on the sidelines and never disturb my sister-in-law."
Su Jian got Zhan Lei's assurance, smiled, and turned around and entered the kitchen. She first took the cloth bag and cleaned it, and after making sure that the barrel and the basket were clean, she turned to look at the hot water boiling in the goose yellow, which was lukewarm and hot, and the temperature was just right.
"Goose Yellow, come and help me."
Goose Huang walked quickly to Su Jian's side, watched Su Jian first put the basket on the big bucket, and then poured the bean juice into the cloth bag. The cloth bag was placed in the basket, and she couldn't understand the purpose at all.
"Help me heat the water in the sack."
Goose Huang did so, and saw that Su Jian began to seal the cloth bag, and then kneaded it with his hands, and the milky white juice leached out of the cloth bag and flowed into the wooden barrel along the basket.
Does her young lady want to use soy juice to make milk?
Su Jian didn't know what Goose Huang thought, after adding water and kneading it several times, the white juice in the wooden barrel was enough, she laboriously lifted the wooden barrel to the side of the stove, and originally wanted to pour the juice from the wooden barrel into the pot at one time, but the wooden barrel was too heavy, so she could only pour it twice.
"Goose yellow, help me light the fire, stay in the pot to boil, but not too much, it's best to put out the fire when it's just bubbling, don't continue to heat."
"Yes."
Goose Huang did so, looked at Su Jian, and then looked at the pot. Where did her young lady learn this? She hadn't seen beans grow so big, but she had never seen beans turn into milk.
Su Jian saw that the goose yellow began to burn the fire, so she turned around and went to find some plaster, grinded them into powder, and melted them into the clear water. In fact, it is best to use alkaline water to order bean curd, but she has been looking for a long time, and there is indeed no alkaline water here. It's ...... Although the taste of the gypsum bean curd is poor, it can still be eaten.
The bean juice is brought to a boil and the surface is no longer bubbling.
Su Jian first scooped up a pot of bean juice, put some sugar, and when it was cold, it was soy milk. Drinking soy milk, I enjoy it very much, and it is also very nutritious, and I will definitely like it if I want to come to Zhan Lei. When things were done, she picked up a spoon and scooped a spoonful of gypsum water, drawing an even circle around the cauldron, from large to small. After one time, there is a slight pause, then continuation, and so on.
The more she looked at Su Jian's movements, the more confused she became, until she saw that a little white flower began to appear in the pure white milk-like pot, and the white flowers became more and more obvious, and even the milk-like white juice began to become clear, like a little green water, but the green color was not obvious.
"Miss, are you a fairy?"
Su Jian's eyebrows moved, and she saw that Goose Huang was looking at the pot in front of her intently: "Making food is so magical, it's like white noodles made into noodles and steamed buns, isn't it?" ”
"Where did Miss learn that? Reading books again? Goose Huang saw that Su Jian picked up the shaun and began to press the white flowers in the pot, and after only a moment, a piece of white food with shakki lines appeared.
Su Jian looked at the pot with satisfaction, making bean curd for the first time after coming to ancient times, and it was very successful. She tugged at the corners of her lips, took a kitchen knife, and cut the white bean curd in the pot into squares one after another.
"Goose yellow, let's see if our rice is ready, when it's ready, we're ready to eat, I'll make the seasoning."
Eating bean curd is exquisite, one is to eat the freshness of bean curd, the other is to eat seasoning, both are indispensable, which one is missing, will lose the deliciousness of bean curd itself.
Considering Zhan Lei, Su Jian made two kinds of seasonings, one is a salted water dish, and the second is a red oil and chili pepper dish, but unfortunately there is no soy sauce, lettuce oil and kohlrabi, otherwise this seasoning is a must. But it doesn't matter, she will arrange all of this in the future.
"Hmm...... Miss, it's so tender, it's so slippery, it's delicious. ”
"Sister-in-law, it's delicious! And this, it's delicious! Zhan Lei couldn't help but get excited.
Su Jian saw that Goose Huang and Zhan Lei both liked the bean curd and soy milk she made, and was happy: "There are other ways to eat this bean curd, and tomorrow, I will make tofu for you." ”
"Huh?"
Su Jian looked at the two pairs of confused and expectant eyes, and only told them to eat quickly.
Eating and eating, Su Jian looked at the bean curd in the pot, and she began to think deeply about her next business. But this business, she doesn't plan to sell it directly, she wants to use her shop in the county seat. With the theme of tofu, dishes such as bean curd rice, tofu brain, and tofu are sold...... But the plan is not yet mature, and she has to prepare again. Everything has to wait for Xiong Er's Zhuangzi to be on the right track.
A day later.
Xiong Er squatted outside Su Jian's courtyard early in the morning, so that Su Jian could see him at first sight after getting up.
Su Jian expected Xiong Er to come, but he didn't expect him to come so quickly, but after thinking about it in a flash, this is also a good thing. It proves that Xiong Er is really ready to listen to her.
"Madam, now there is not a single weed in the fields on our Zhuangzi, not to mention wheat seedlings."
Su Jian glanced at Xiong Er, and the black blue was obvious at the moment, but he didn't tell a lie, but it was only a day, and he actually cleaned up so many fields: "It's hard." ”
Xiong Er's eyes lit up, and he shook his head quickly, there were not many brothers who helped him clean up the fields together, they were all doing it in the dark last night, but he would never tell Su Jian: "It's not hard, madam...... What's next for the little ones? ”
Su Jian turned her head sideways, her eyes met, and when she saw Xiong Er's gaze at her changed from dodging to firm, she knew that Xiong Er's words seemed to be asking her what to do next, but it was not a temptation. In the end, she couldn't be hard-hearted, and she also felt that the punishment for Xiong Er was enough, so she stopped selling Guanzi: "Plant peppers." ”
"Chili?"
"It's the red pepper I bought last time, I've found its seeds, and I want your Zhuangzi to plant it all." When the chili harvest is harvested, it is a very good choice to eat it yourself or make it into chili sauce and sell it. Especially chili sauce, which can be used in her shop and can be sold to others, it will definitely be a profitable business.
Xiong Er, he was fortunate to hear Xiong Da, Xiong Blind talked about the spicy shell noodles made in the lady's kitchen, which were made with chili peppers, which were said to be delicious. But if it's delicious, can it be eaten as a meal?
Xiong Er subconsciously wanted to question, but thinking of the previous farming, his doubts and distrust of his wife, what did he miss...... He took a few breaths quietly, since he had now chosen to do things with Madame, he couldn't doubt Madame.
"Madam, what do you need to pay attention to when planting peppers?"
