Chapter Seventy-Two: Nutty Flavor
With the help of Liu Yifei and Zhao Jinmai, Li Yi quickly filled the molds for making dried tofu and thousands of sheets.
However, dried tofu and 1000 zhang need to be pressed for a long time, and they will have to wait until the afternoon at least to press them.
Taking advantage of the time when the old tofu solidified, Li Yi dissolved the gypsum powder again, ordered a bucket of tender tofu with gypsum powder, and pressed it with a mold.
By the time the tender tofu is put into the mold, the brine tofu here is almost pressed.
Seeing that half an hour had passed, Li Yi came to the mold of the brine tofu and gently poked the tofu with his finger.
The Q-elastic feeling like fat pork told him that the tofu was ready.
"It's ready to eat."
As he spoke, he lifted the gauze covering the tofu, revealing the golden tofu inside.
"Huh? How is it golden? “
Zhao Jinmai asked in surprise: "Usually the tofu we eat is white?" ”
"Because the beans used are different, the water is different."
Li Yi reminded: "How can the beans I bought for 500 yuan a pound be the same as ordinary beans?" ”
Wu Lei lowered his head to the side of the tofu and sniffed it, and suddenly sighed, and his eyes instantly lit up: "There is a kind of nutty aroma!" ”
Li Yi took a thin piece of bamboo, cut off a piece from the tofu, and handed it to Liu Yifei on the side: "Taste it." ”
"Huh? Just eat it straight? ”
Liu Yifei hesitated.
"Yes, you can try it." Li Yi stretched out the bamboo slices.
Seeing this, Liu Yifei stretched out her hands and took the tofu.
She held the tofu, lowered her head and smelled it, a little surprised: "It really has the aroma of nuts!" ”
"Fresh tofu will taste like this."
Li Yi explained: "I usually buy a little tofu in the supermarket, but if I soak it in water for too long, the taste will dissipate. ”
"I've never smelled it before, and this is the first time."
Liu Yifei said, then raised her head and stuffed the tofu in her hand into her mouth.
When the soft tofu entered the mouth, she immediately took a deep breath and her eyes widened in surprise.
"How? Is it tasty? ”
Zhao Jinmai looked at her with an inquiring expression.
"Hmm!"
Liu Yifei nodded vigorously and smiled at Zhao Jinmai, but she couldn't speak.
While chewing, she grabbed Zhao Jinmai's hand and squeezed it hard, as if she wanted to tell Zhao Jinmai how delicious the tofu was.
"It hurts, it hurts."
Zhao Jinmai cried out in pain.
Seeing this, Liu Yifei hurriedly swallowed the tofu in her mouth, and pulled her to signal: "Mai Mai, taste it, this tofu is delicious!" It really has a nutty flavor! It's also a little sweet, like eating a bite of soybean crisp! ”
When Zhao Jinmai heard this, he didn't care about the pain, so he turned his face and stretched out his hand at Li Yi: "Brother Yi, Brother Yi!" Give me a piece to taste! ”
Li Yi didn't say a word, just cut off a piece and put it on her palm.
Holding the trembling tofu block, Zhao Jinmai lowered his head and sniffed it, and suddenly smiled: "It's really fragrant!" ”
As she spoke, she couldn't wait to take a bite.
The soft tofu doesn't need any teeth at all, but it quickly breaks up with a gentle pressure with your tongue.
As the tofu cracks open, a strong bean flavor spreads and quickly spreads all over the mouth.
"Hmm!"
Zhao Jinmai also hummed and widened his eyes.
She knew why Liu Yifei pinched her hand just now and didn't speak, and she was reluctant to speak with this mouthful of bean fragrance, so she let it go.
She chewed it carefully and chewed all the mouthfuls of tofu before swallowing it.
Then, she exclaimed: "This tofu is delicious!" It's even better than what I used to eat when I was a kid! ”
"Isn't it like soybean crisp?"
Liu Yifei asked her with a smile.
"Hmm!"
Zhao Jinmai nodded again and again in admiration: "I have the feeling of eating the particularly delicious bean buns in our hometown, a bit like bean paste filling, but soybeans are made, and they are not so sweet, but the nutty flavor is really strong!" ”
Listening to their descriptions, Wu Lei swallowed his saliva greedily, and hurriedly raised his hand: "Brother Yi, I!" I! ”
After glancing at him, Li Yi cut a small piece with a bamboo knife and handed it to him: "Huh." ”
"Huh?"
Wu Lei was disappointed: "That's it? ”
Li Yi said seriously: "Tofu has soy isoflavones, that is, phytoestrogens, if you want to enlarge your breasts, you can eat them all." ”
“……”
Wu Lei was dumbfounded.
"Haha! Teasing you, eat! ”
Li Yi smiled and put the tofu on the palm of his hand: "The content is not so exaggerated, it's okay to eat less." ”
Wu Lei looked at the tofu in his palm and hesitated.
He doesn't want to enlarge his breasts!
But smelling the nutty aroma wafting from the warm tofu, he still couldn't resist the temptation, put this small piece of tofu in his mouth, and savored it.
Chewing the tofu carefully, he swallowed it in one bite before exclaiming: "Wow! It's delicious! ”
"Another piece?"
Li Yi cut off a piece of tofu to tease him.
"No, no, just taste it."
Wu Lei waved his hand again and again.
Then, he was a little worried that he couldn't stand the temptation, so he turned around and ran out of the door: "I'll call Brother Xiao Ming!" ”
Li Yi smiled and looked at the live broadcast screen, the audience in the live broadcast room was posting a barrage, and the discussion was hot.
"Nani? Can you enlarge your breasts? Hurry up and get on the link! I'm going to buy it if I smash the pot and sell iron! ”
"Please give me more food!"
"Haha! I have already imagined what Wu Lei will look like when he endorses men's underwear! ”
"The great god asks for help, how can I let my wife see this video without showing a trace?"
Huang Xiaoming came back soon, he was busy all morning, ran all the routes of various scenic spots in the Forbidden City, and participated in safety training, so far he didn't eat a mouthful of food, tired and hungry.
When he got back to the restaurant, he ate a large piece of tofu and was content as if he were in heaven.
In the live broadcast room, AI software was used to add a pair of cartoon wings to him in the later stage, and some special effects came.
And this also stimulated the playfulness of the audience, and they all gave special effects gifts.
As a result, Li Yi and the others in the live broadcast screen were turned into snotty fat men by special effects for a while, and became like flowers for a while, and the audience had a lot of fun.
The program team was happy to see it, the audience had fun, and the program team also received gifts, killing two birds with one stone.
But after playing for a while, the audience who gave the gift was stopped by the other viewers.
It's quite interesting to watch this kind of gift special effect just a few times, but if you give too much, it will affect the viewing a little.
In front of the camera, Huang Xiaoming finished eating a large piece of tofu before he made time to ask Li Yi: "How do you make this tofu?" It's delicious! ”
Li Yi pointed to the camera: "It's all filmed, go back and make a backup, just go back and learn to do it." ”
"That's great."
Huang Xiaoming took a sip of water, suddenly remembered something, and said, "By the way, the guests who will come tomorrow have been decided." ”
"Oh? Who is it? ”
Liu Yifei asked curiously.
"It's Zheng Jun, Liu Yun, and Qin Lan."
"Wow! Brother Zheng Jun is coming? ”
Wu Lei was very surprised: "I often listen to Brother Zheng Jun's songs! ”
Liu Yifei heard this, but glanced at Huang Xiaoming.
Qin Lan mentioned by Huang Xiaoming once had a relationship with Huang Xiaoming for a period of time, but I didn't expect the program team to invite Qin Lan over, is this to create a wave of hype about old lovers in the same frame?
But looking at Huang Xiaoming's calm expression, he didn't seem to care.
It has been many years since he and Qin Lan happened, and he has also married and had children, so he has obviously turned the page on this matter a long time ago.
Li Yi on the side didn't speak, but at the angle that the camera didn't capture, he was pondering, as if he had thought of something.
He remembered that this Qin Lan acted in a TV series called "Yanxi Raiders", and her role in that drama was Queen Fucha, that is, Queen Xiaoxianchun who ate tofu banquet in the dream space.
It turned out that this task should be here, and Li Yi suddenly had a number in his heart.
