The method of shortbread is very simple, and if you want to make a texture that is neither soft nor hard, you first need two kinds of water and noodles.

Boiling water and cold water.

If you use cold water and noodles, the baked cakes will be hard and hard to bite after cooling, and if you use all boiling water and noodles, the cakes will be soft, sticky and not crispy, and the taste will be poor.

In the large iron basin, Lin Zhou poured a whole bag of flour, divided it into two, half of the boiling water, half of the cold water, added the edible salt and white sugar, stirred and melted, and then poured into the basin and the noodles.

Knead all the flour directly in the basin by hand until it is almost in a flocculent state.

You can add cooking oil.

There are two cooking oils, and the crispy texture of the yakiniku is obtained.

Lin Zhou enjoyed this tranquility alone, even if the temperature was a little colder, it did not prevent him from moving.

Knead the dough at one time until the surface is smooth and knead into strips.

The advantage of having a lot of strength is that the strength required to knead the dough is not worth mentioning to him.

After kneading to the extent you want, you can give the long strip of dough and knead about 80 grams of the agent down.

The agent was rubbed back and forth in Lin Zhou's hand, and finally became a smooth little strip, all ready, brushed with cooking oil, covered with plastic wrap, and let it relax for half an hour.

During this period, Lin Zhou stirred the white porridge in the pot a few times and prepared the puff pastry.

Puff pastry is commonly known as lard.

Clean the lard, chop it, just like the filling, you need to season it.

There are not only spices, but also various seasonings.

The salty and fresh flavor of the shortbread is all in this lard.

Mix the spices into a powder, add them according to the proportion of the ingredients, and then season them......

Lin Zhou was immersed in the work of making baked cakes, completely unaware that the sun outside the house was rising little by little.

When all the baked cake embryos were ready, Lin Zhou turned on the baked cake stove on the tricycle, and the charcoal fire was at the bottom of the stove, and after it was burned, the stove soon heated up.

During this period, the baked cake embryo is rolled out to a familiar size, and it is directly sent to the oven to start baking.

The porridge in the pot is also done.

Just wait for the baked cake to finish and have breakfast.

Mr. Lin, who had been busy all morning, took a chair and sat in the corridor under the eaves, watching the baked cake stove in the yard exude the enticing aroma of lard and green onion as the temperature rises.

Absolutely.

It can arouse people's appetite.

Especially the people in the village who cook on the fire in the morning.

The smell was faint, not real, but the stomach of the person who really smelled it growled.

"Grandma, is breakfast ready? Is it a cake? ”

Xiaoling, who had just gotten up and was about to go to school, was wearing a shabby jacket and said sweetly to her grandmother who was cooking in the kitchen.

Grandma shook her head, "Does Xiaoling want to eat cakes?" ”

Xiao Ling was not disappointed when she heard this, she still had a sweet smile on her face, walked up to her grandmother softly, and rubbed her grandmother's rough hand.

Because of the fire, grandma's hands also exuded a warm feeling in the winter, and Xiaoling hummed comfortably twice.

"Eat vegetable porridge in the morning, grandma will serve you rice, and go to school after eating it so hot."

The only primary school in the village is on the mountain in the village, and the way to school is that the students have to climb up step by step, which is very hard, but this is the only way for rural children to get out of the mountain.

So no one says bitterness.

After sending Xiaoling away, the grandmother thought of the single shoes on her granddaughter's feet and was ready to go to the town to buy a pair of cotton shoes for her granddaughter.

There are no cars in the village, and the way to the town is only on foot for an old man.

……

On the other side, Lin Zhou also rode a tricycle to the town after breakfast.

Pushing out the tricycle from the yard and walking to the hill, Lin Zhou lifted the tricycle with both hands and moved it to the road.

Start riding again.

All the way to the town, there was no one on the way.

Lin Zhou had a bad premonition.

Then when I got to the town, it was only seven o'clock, and it was time for breakfast.

Lin Zhou wanted to find a lively place to set up a stall.

Unexpectedly, the most lively place in the town is a place like a vegetable market and a morning market, and there are not many people doing business.

There aren't many people who buy things either.

Lin Zhou found a random spot to stop and set up the stall.

His stall is still as new and fashionable as ever, and it is worth a lot of money when it looks good.

If you're in the city, it's a magnet for passers-by.

But in such a mountainous area, it is a place that makes people forget and stop.

Coupled with Lin Zhou's dress and temperament, he really feels out of place in a small mountain town.

Passers-by and businessmen were sneaking in to see him.

Lin Zhou wore a mask, sat in front of the stall, and looked at passers-by.

Every passer-by who was curious to meet his gaze would flee in the wilderness.

Lin Zhou was silent.

He felt the difference between himself and the town.

I really didn't know what to do for a while

An hour later......

Lin Zhou hasn't opened yet.

The figure he watched gradually decayed.

He failed even to bake the pancakes in an attempt to spread the fragrance to attract passers-by.

His booth was left unattended.

It wasn't until Grandma Xiaoling bought cotton shoes and wrapped them in a cloth bag that she smelled the fragrance of the baked cakes and felt a little familiar, so she subconsciously stopped in front of Lin Zhou's stall.

Lin Zhou's eyes lit up, and he immediately stood up and greeted warmly.

"Does grandma eat pancakes? The hot shortbread is very fragrant. ”

Lin Zhou said as he took out a baked cake from the boiler to show his grandmother.

Grandma Xiaoling drank a bowl of porridge in the morning, and it took more than an hour to walk from the village to the town, and she bought things again, tossed around, and immediately became hungry when she smelled the fragrance of baked cakes.

But she held back.

Carefully took out a little money from the cloth pocket and wanted to bring one back for his granddaughter.

But looking at the brand-new food truck in front of her, she asked hesitantly:

"Young man, how much is it?"

"One by one?"

Lin Zhou thought about it, and when he said the set price, he immediately changed a number. After speaking, he saw the old woman purse her lips and began to take out a plastic bag and start to open it.

I saw that the plastic bag had been dismantled one layer, and there was still one layer.

Lin Zhou watched her open the bag on the left and the right layer, and after opening it for a minute, she revealed a cloth bag inside and began to take money, there were five cents and some banknotes in it, and the largest one was only five yuan.

Lin Zhou, who was watching it, was a little blocked inexplicably, lowered his eyes, and looked for a bag to put it.

"Let's pack."

Grandma Xiaoling's hand fell on Wumao, and she chose a piece of coin and put it on Lin Zhou's stall desk.

Lin Zhou's ears were sensitive and he heard the sound of the old grandmother's belly, and he also knew that the other party was not rich.

I put two biscuits directly into the bag.

"Grandma, you are my first customer, the opening is a big reward, buy one get one free, you try my craftsmanship, delicious welcome to come again next time."

When Grandma Xiaoling heard this, she wanted to take the hand of the baked cake, as if she was wondering if it was true or false.

Immediately felt Lin Zhou's seriousness, as well as the baked cakes handed over, and a happy smile appeared on his face.

"That's embarrassing, thank you, young man."
