Chapter 660 Edible Food
The village chief was also stunned when he heard Su Ruoyun's words.
"Miss Su, do you think this is a dish?"
“People here have always treated them as weeds.”
"This one tastes a bit bitter, and this one can make some people feel sick and need to see a doctor, so no one eats these two. We think they're just grass."
The conditions in the village are not very good, and many people sometimes don’t have enough to eat.
In order to have more food, everyone tried to eat the grass in the mountains, but some of it was really grass and could not be eaten at all.
Not only will it not fill your stomach, but it will also make you feel uncomfortable.
There was no doctor in their village. One time, an old man in the village ate this grass, so they took a ox cart to the nearest city to find a doctor. The old man took medicine and he was cured.
So no matter how hungry you are, you won’t eat these things.
Su Ruoyun listened to the village chief talk about this and understood what was going on.
"This shepherd's purse tastes very good when it's cooked, and can be used to make many delicious dishes."
"This kind of fern isn't a weed. It's fine as long as you eat it in the normal way."
Even though Su Ruoyun said so, the village chief didn't quite believe it.
They still don't dare to eat these things.
Su Ruoyun was not afraid, she planned to make these two kinds of food.
Of course, if they cook together and the village chief and others don’t want to eat, she will cook some for herself.
Su Ruoyun looked at Gu Lenghan.
Before Su Ruoyun could ask anything, Gu Lenghan smiled and said, "I'll eat whatever you cook."
There was a look of trust in his eyes when he spoke.
Su Ruoyun was very happy to see that Gu Lenghan trusted her so much.
"Let me tell you, using this shepherd's purse to make dumplings, buns, and wontons is especially delicious."
At this moment, Su Ruoyun wanted to eat shepherd's purse wontons.
Gu Lenghan had indeed never tasted anything like this before.
When Su Ruoyun talked about this, she wanted to eat shepherd's purse wontons.
Gu Lenghan looked at Su Ruoyun's expression and said, knowing her best, "It's only evening now, it's still early, we can make wontons right away."
Su Ruoyun's eyes lit up, and she nodded to Gu Lenghan and said, "Okay."
Su Ruoyun asked the village chief again: "Village chief, we are planning to make shepherd's purse wontons. Do you eat shepherd's purse wontons?"
The village chief thought for a moment and shook his head, "Girl, we..."
The village chief and his men really didn't dare to take the risk.
If you feel unwell and need to see a doctor, it will cost a lot of money.
Moreover, they had to go to a city far away, which they did not dare to do.
Su Ruoyun also understood them and said, "That's fine, then we'll make our own food and you guys make your dinner."
So let’s not eat together for now.
Su Ruoyun gave the killed pheasant to the village chief, but the village chief refused to take it, saying that it was theirs.
However, when they learned that Su Ruoyun needed shepherd's purse, their subordinates immediately went to the mountains and forests to dig shepherd's purse in the same way as shepherd's purse.
Su Ruoyun cleaned the pheasant and made chicken soup.
Gu Lenghan helped to light the fire.
Although there were subordinates present, they were not used to asking others to help them when they were eating together.
Now that Gu Lenghan and Su Ruoyun have noble status, the secret guards go to get food on their own.
Gu Lenghan and Su Ruoyun ate the food they made themselves.
Su Ruoyun said, "I'll cook the chicken soup soon. I'll use the chicken soup to cook the wontons. It will be more fragrant and you can drink all the wonton soup."
While Gu Lenghan was cooking chicken soup, Su Ruoyun was kneading the dough and rolling out the wonton wrappers. She rolled out the wonton wrappers and put them aside so that she could be ready to make wontons at any time.
After a while, the secret guards dug up the shepherd's purse.
Lots of shepherd's purse.
You only need a little to make wontons.
Su Ruoyun picked and washed the shepherd's purse, then blanched it and chopped it into stuffing with the meat.
After chopping and seasoning, start wrapping.
Su Ruoyun moved very quickly.
Soon the wontons were wrapped.
Gu Lenghan originally wanted to help Su Ruoyun after the fire was lit and the chicken soup was stewed.
Unexpectedly, Su Ruoyun was very fast at wrapping the wontons. She finished wrapping a basket of wontons in no time.
"Look, it's wrapped. We can make wontons soon."
Gu Lenghan looked at the stewing chicken and said, "It should be done now!"
Su Ruoyun opened the lid of the pot, took a look and said, "It's done."
"I'll serve these out and save some of the chicken broth for the wontons."
If you eat wontons at night, you definitely can’t eat chicken.
Su Ruoyun planned to cook the chicken tomorrow.
Gu Lenghan continued to light the fire. The chicken soup was already boiling, and Su Ruoyun put the shepherd's purse wontons in to cook.
She stirred gently as it cooked.
Prevent the wontons from sticking to the pan.
After the wontons were cooked, Su Ruoyun put them in a large bowl and poured soup, which was chicken soup.
"Okay, you can eat now!"
When Su Ruoyun saw the finished shepherd's purse wontons, her eyes were filled with light and smile.
Seeing her happy expression, Gu Lenghan also smiled.
"Okay, let's eat first."
The two of them sat down to eat.
Su Ruoyun took out the seasoning.
"This is pepper, this is vinegar, and this is chili. Put them in as you see fit."
This way you can adjust the flavor you like.
Su Ruoyun thinks that this kind of soup tastes the best in its original flavor.
She couldn't wait to scoop up a shepherd's purse wonton with a spoon and eat it.
“Huff…”
It was a little hot, and Su Ruoyun kept fanning herself with her hands.
Looking at Su Ruoyun like this, Gu Lenghan said with some amusement: "Slow down, be careful of the burns."
As he spoke, Gu Lenghan hurriedly poured Su Ruoyun a glass of warm water.
After a while, Su Ruoyun ate the wontons.
"Wow, delicious, this is the taste that only shepherd's purse can create."
Su Ruoyun showed an intoxicated look.
She really likes food made with shepherd's purse.
Gu Lenghan hadn't eaten yet, but looking at Su Ruoyun's expression, he suddenly felt hungry.
However, Gu Lenghan added some vinegar and pepper to the soup.
He took a sip of the soup and found it extremely fresh and delicious.
"Try the wontons, they're delicious."
"good."
Gu Lenghan took a bite of the wonton and was really amazed by the taste.
His eyes lit up and he nodded, "It's really delicious, with a unique taste."
When he was in Hezhou before, he and Ruoyun had eaten wontons of many flavors.
The restaurant also serves wontons for breakfast.
There are wontons with various fillings, such as egg yolk filling, preserved egg filling, etc.
This shepherd's purse tastes really unique and delicious.
Su Ruoyun said, "We can go around here tomorrow. I heard there's a lot of shepherd's purse, so we can dig up more. Maybe there are some mountain products. I feel like people here don't know much about mountain products."
Gu Lenghan nodded and said, "Okay."
He also hopes to help people find more edible food.
As if thinking of something, Gu Lenghan asked, "Is that fern really edible?"
Su Ruoyun nodded and said, "Yes, you can eat it."
"Just eat in moderation, and there are some precautions to take after picking."
"For example, you should eat fresh bracken, and you can't eat old bracken."
"Pick the bracken and soak it in water with wood ash. Blanch it in boiling water before eating. That's it."
"But bracken is a cold food, so it's better to eat less."
“And bracken also contains a lot of nutrients.”
After Su Ruoyun said this to Gu Lenghan, he understood.
"Ferns can be stir-fried with meat, served cold, or stewed in soup. There are many ways to prepare them."
"Anyway, we can eat it as wild vegetables."
Su Ruoyun said with a smile: "Let's eat it later. They will believe it after seeing that we are fine after eating it."
"You should eat shepherd's purse in front of everyone."
Gu Lenghan smiled and said, "It's okay. Over time, everyone will naturally know that shepherd's purse is a delicious food."
Su Ruoyun said: "Or you can open a small wonton shop in town."
Open a chain store.
Su Ruoyun found that most of the food here was made with noodles, and the wontons, dumplings and buns were mainly filled with meat.
But she thinks that after eating too much meat, more people may want to eat vegetarian food.
Or you can open a special wild vegetable wonton shop.
Specializes in making wontons wrapped with wild vegetables.
As long as the flavor is right and it tastes good, many people will eat it.
