So we have to guess all the time?
"Do I always have to guess?"
Frogboy didn't quite understand.
"You just can't tell me?"
Frog nodded, then shook his head, "Later..."
"You mean later?"
Frog nodded.
Its Tangtangyo is so ignorant.
Qiu Yantang breathed a sigh of relief. That was fine. "Okay, let's eat!"
She also served rice to the frog boy, topped it with braised pork and thick, oily broth.
He poured himself another bowl. Qiuhua and Zhang Shouquan were the only ones there, so they solved the problem themselves.
"Hmm, it's so delicious!" Qiu Yantang really didn't expect that the taste would be elevated to several levels. He couldn't stop eating it after taking a bite.
The froglet buried its head in the bowl.
Qiu Yantang ate two large bowls. At that time, the bowls were two large bowls, just like the beef noodles you see outside.
Two big bowls is quite a lot.
After a while, Qiu Guangbei brought glutinous rice and some red beans.
"Little Ancestor, please check if it's enough. If not, let Third Brother Jin go buy some."
"That's enough, that's enough. This must be more than 20 kilograms. It can hold a lot."
Qiu Yantang only plans to freeze some bean buns this year, and has no plans to freeze dumplings. She doesn’t like frozen dumplings and prefers the ones that are freshly made.
Pork and green onions are fine, but she doesn't like sauerkraut. At that time, her master loved sauerkraut. Every Chinese New Year, they would make two kinds of fillings and then pinch the green onions into lace.
So her family didn’t pickle sauerkraut this year. If you want to eat it, go to someone else’s house and exchange it!
After Qiu Guangbei left, Qiu Yantang called Qiu Hua and Zhang Shouquan into the house and said, "Please rub the shells off the rhubarb and glutinous rice. Too much shells won't make them tasty."
Since people were poor at that time, they basically ate the shells. But this was too difficult for Qiu Yantang because it hurt his throat.
"Don't worry, little ancestor, we will try our best to rub off all the shells."
After being together for so long, Qiuhua of course knew that Qiu Yantang was actually a very picky person.
Not only rhubarb rice and glutinous rice, but after Qiu Yantang assigned this task to them, she ran to the side to pick red beans, and did not want the shriveled or bad ones.
Affects the taste.
They finished it in one morning.
Qiuhua and Zhang Shouquan's hands were numb from rubbing them.
Afterwards, Qiu Yantang found a large basin and a large bucket, and directly soaked the rhubarb rice, glutinous rice, and red beans in water, using cold water for the rhubarb rice and glutinous rice.
Red beans are cooked with hot water.
You need to add more water, especially the red beans, so that they will swell.
It was soaked until noon of the next day, about a whole day and night. Qiu Yantang and Qiu Hua stewed the red beans, which took about 40 minutes to soak. She also specially added crushed ice blue rose petals.
I don't know why, but once you put it in, the fragrance increases exponentially.
Zhang Shouquan went outside to grind rhubarb rice flour and glutinous rice flour.
His job is time-consuming and laborious.
After the red beans were cooked, Qiu Yantang squeezed them hard with a shovel and crushed them completely. During this process, Qiu Yantang also added about a pound of white sugar.
This was also brought back by Frog, otherwise she wouldn't have been willing to leave it like this.
I also picked out some large bean curd sheets, so that the taste will be better.
Qiuhua couldn't help but take a bite. "This bean paste is so delicious. It has a dense texture and not too watery."
"Of course it is. Look who made it." Qiu Yantang said happily. This thing is only made once a year, and it takes skill to make it well, especially the bean filling. It has to be the drier kind that can be formed into a ball when pinched.
Qiu Yantang and Qiu Hua used their hands to shape the bean paste in the large bowl into small balls that were slightly larger than quail eggs.
Put both hands in the palm of your hand and pinch it tightly, so that it will taste better.
After pinching, Qiuhua puts it outside to freeze. It freezes more solid and is easier to wrap.
In the evening, Zhang Shouquan had ground the flour, and Qiu Yantang began to knead the dough, adding crushed ice blue rose petals.
After kneading, put it on the kang. The temperature cannot be too high, otherwise the dough will become sour, and the temperature cannot be too low, otherwise it will not rise.
In the evening, Qiu Yantang entered the space and harvested another batch of flowers, but there were no rare flowers. After replanting them, Qiu Yantang went to bed.
She took a special look at the noodles in the morning and found that they were ready. She pressed them with her fist for a while and then called Qiuhua and Zhang Shouquan over.
The dough they pinch is about twice the size of the bean filling. They press the bean filling inside with their hands and make it into a shorter, small cylindrical shape. In some places, it is made twice as big as this, like a steamed bun.
However, Qiu Yantang felt that smaller ones were more delicious. Since there were no perilla leaves at the time, he did not use perilla leaves to wrap them.
Just put the bean curd on the lid. It is still raw at this time, so take it outside and freeze it directly.
You can steam it and eat it when you want to eat it.
They made a special pot, some with rhubarb rice and some with glutinous rice.
After putting them in the pot and steaming them, Qiu Yantang ate one first and found it tasted really good.
"It's sticky on the outside with a rice aroma, and on the inside it's a fragrant red bean flavor. It's delicious, come and try it!"
After Qiu Yantang finished speaking, Qiu Hua and Zhang Shouquan couldn't wait to start eating.
It’s really delicious!
The froglet is not here, so I'll give it a taste when it comes back. Qiu Yantang feels that it will like it too.
"Tangtang, are you home?"
At this moment, Lan Qiqi's voice rang out.
Qiu Yantang said, "I'm here, come in quickly, I'm making bean buns today, come and try some."
After saying that, he handed one to Lan Qiqi and Fan Tuan respectively.
"Yeah, it's delicious. It's a bit like rice cake, but better than rice cake."
That's right, this one is added with crushed ice blue rose petals, which elevates the taste to a whole new level.
"Tangtang, please sell some to us!"
"You can only take one bag at fifty cents a pound, plus a grain coupon for half a pound of fine grain."
"Okay, we bought it."
"I'll send it to you tomorrow after it's frozen."
Hearing Qiu Yantang say this, Lan Qiqi and Fan Tuan nodded.
"What are you doing?"
It is said that one does not visit a temple for no reason. Lan Qiqi and Fan Tuan do not come to her place very often.
"By the way, we want to go to the town to buy some food now. It will be difficult to buy food once the mountain is blocked by heavy snow." Lan Qiqi and the others are also preparing for a rainy day. The food distributed to them by the village is not enough to last until the spring, so they can't save money no matter how much they save.
"We have to ask Jin San about this."
Qiu Yantang was a little confused. I don’t have a car here either…
Lan Qiqi felt a little embarrassed...
Fan Tuan also seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"What's wrong?" Qiu Yantang was helpless. If he didn't say anything, how could he solve the problem?
