Chapter 96 Salty or Sweet
"You guy..." Bai Mengmeng got three peanuts. She felt a little funny, but also a little touched at the same time.
At this moment, she felt that the scene seemed familiar. "Strange, why is it peanuts? I feel like I've seen it somewhere. Who did you learn this from?"
Huaguduo immediately laughed out loud: "Of course it's The Return of the Condor Heroes. Yang Guo gave him three golden needles, but he exchanged them for three peanuts!"
"Hahaha!" Everyone burst into laughter at once.
At this time, they had not yet realized how valuable the promise of an attacking powerhouse was in the modern world of cultivation.
Of course, Liangcha has always been the eldest brother and their family, so they naturally didn't take this silence to heart.
After all, if something really happened, would Liangcha just stand by and watch?
Wang Hao took the peanuts and started making a wish: "Big Brother, I will use this promise today!"
"You wash the dishes today! Is that okay?"
Liang Cha naturally did not refuse: "Okay."
At this time, Xu Bo picked up a few bottles from his feet, coughed twice, and said, "I also have a New Year's gift here, which I brewed specially for everyone..."
Before he finished speaking, Huaguduo threw the red envelope to the ground, crawled under the table and said anxiously: "Oh, my red envelope, I need to find my red envelope."
Wang Hao also crawled to the ground and said: "Strange, my red envelope is missing too, let's look for it together."
"It seems like it's time to wash the dishes." Liangcha ran to the kitchen with the dirty bowls.
"Ahem, I still need to prepare the ingredients. I have to set up the stall tonight. I forgot about it. I have to hurry up!"
Xu Bo: “???”
Because the meal took quite a long time, by the time everyone finished eating, it was already evening and almost dark.
Noticing Bai Mengmeng still leisurely eating melon seeds, Huaguduo immediately asked curiously, "Master, what exactly do you want to sell? Don't you need to prepare the ingredients? It's almost time to set up the stall!"
Bai Mengmeng laughed and said, "I thought I told you I was going to sell tofu pudding!"
She finally stood up, threw away the melon seed shells on her body, then ran to the kitchen and brought out a large basin of soaked soybeans.
"Look, I've already prepared all the materials."
The soybeans were already plump at this time. I scooped them up with my hands and squeezed them twice, and immediately a satisfied smile appeared on my face.
In the summer, the soybean stalks are cut, and the soybeans that have been grown with great effort are spread on the ground. After being exposed to the sun, the soybeans are repeatedly beaten, and then a large bag of round and plump soybeans is collected.
Now it is full of moisture and looks bigger. When you pinch it gently with your hand, a bean fragrance comes out.
"We grew it ourselves, and the quality is indeed top-notch. Let's quickly grind the tofu and make tofu pudding."
"Isn't there enough time now?"
"Enough, enough. Today is New Year's Eve. Everyone needs to eat New Year's Eve dinner, go to the night market, and burn the first incense. It will probably be very late."
Making tofu pudding is actually a very simple thing, and the restaurant not only has a grinder but also a big pot.
In order to make the taste smoother, Bai Mengmeng first gently rubbed the soybean skin under water. Because the skin is very light, it will naturally float in the water and can be washed away.
Then the soybeans were put in the backyard, and just like making tofu, equal proportions of clean water and soybeans were put in using a grinding wheel.
"Master, let me do it. I'm quite strong now."
Wang Hao took the initiative to run over to help.
"Then come on."
Wang Hao worked very hard and he could push the mill with just a little movement. It looked very easy and soon raw soy milk was flowing out continuously.
Bai Mengmeng uses gauze to filter the residue repeatedly to ensure that there is no residue in the taste.
After doing this a few times, the slurry still felt a bit thick, so Bai Mengmeng poured some more water into it, stirred it thoroughly, and then poured it into the pot and started cooking.
The longer the soy milk is cooked, the better. Even if it boils, you still need to stir it for a few minutes to ensure it is cooked thoroughly.
After cooking the soy milk, the next step is to rinse it, which is the key to forming the tofu pudding.
Take out the prepared lactone, which contains gluconic acid and will react with the protein in the soy milk to form tofu pudding.
Of course, using gypsum water instead is a more traditional approach, and using gypsum water will make the tofu smoother and more delicious.
But Bai Mengmeng felt that she had talent and that it would be fine even without using plaster water.
Take some lactone, then add a little milk powder and cooked soy milk and stir thoroughly.
Finally, skim off the foam on top, peel off the bean skin, and pour all the soy milk into the lactone flour paste at once.
Then put plastic wrap on it and let it sit. It won’t take long before the solidified soy milk will turn into delicious tofu pudding.
Bai Mengmeng made two large buckets of tofu pudding. The tofu pudding looked white and smooth, without any sour taste. It could be said to be extremely successful.
For a moment, the aroma of beans floated throughout the restaurant. This rich taste had no bean smell or sour taste at all, but was extremely mellow.
After dinner, Bai Mengmeng was indeed not hungry, but after smelling the aroma, she still felt a little greedy.
"Try what it tastes like."
She took out a spoon, scooped out some tofu pudding, and then happily poured in the osmanthus honey.
As soon as it enters the mouth, before the mouth even has time to enjoy it, the tofu pudding turns into a stream of water that flows into the stomach.
The taste slowly spread, first the aroma of osmanthus, then the smooth and delicious taste. This tofu pudding is really delicious!
She turned around and found Huaguduo's eyes very complicated.
"Hmm? If you want to eat, grab a bowl and serve yourself."
Huaguduo scratched his head and said, "Master, this sweet tofu pudding feels a bit weird. Is it really edible?"
"I feel it's a bit weird too. Shouldn't it be salty and spicy? How can I eat sweet tofu pudding then?"
Wang Hao also looked disgusted.
Bai Mengmeng was stunned for a moment, her tone filled with disbelief: "You guys are eating salty tofu pudding here?"
Everyone nodded in unison.
Bai Mengmeng was speechless. What a fool! He actually forgot to do market research before selling things. He had liked sweet tofu pudding since he was a child, but he didn't expect that the taste here was salty!
But the brown sugar ginger and candied red beans are almost cooked. Can they really be sold today?
Liangcha didn't care at all, but couldn't wait.
He also scooped a few spoonfuls of tofu pudding, added brown sugar ginger, and candied beans.
One bite and I was pleasantly surprised.
"tasty!"
Bai Mengmeng instantly gained confidence. It seemed that there were people who liked sweet tofu pudding.
