When the tofu pudding was formed and solidified into steamed egg drops, Li Mengyue took a ladle and scooped all the tofu pudding into the tofu box.
Cover with cotton cloth, then put on a board lid, and bring two stones to help press the tofu into shape.
Seeing her daughter doing nothing, Mrs. Li asked curiously, "Yueyue, how long does it take to make tofu?"
"A quarter of an hour will do."
“So fast.”
"Well, I'll make some pan-fried tofu for everyone to try. I also have bean curd dregs, which can be made into bean curd cakes, which are also quite delicious."
Hearing that Li Mengyue was going to make fried tofu, Li and the six women all got busy.
Anyway, we have collected and processed the locusts today, and they have nothing to do, so it would be nice to help make bean curd cakes.
Li Mengyue didn't do anything. She asked someone to put the bean dregs into a basin and began to tell them how to make bean dregs cakes.
In fact, bean curd cake is very simple to make. Just add flour and appropriate amount of water, and stir with chopsticks until it forms a ball.
Then she would use a rolling pin to roll the bean dregs into thin rectangular slices, brush a layer of oil on them, sprinkle them with the spices she had prepared, roll them up, and cut them into small pieces with a knife.
Press them into small cakes with your hands, put them in the pan, bake until both sides are golden brown, and sprinkle with spices.
Just as the women finished making the bean curd cake dough, Mrs. Li started the fire, and this time it was Li Mengyue who took charge.
Since it is not difficult to make bean dregs cakes, a lot of them can be made in less than half an hour. Each one is not only soft but also very fragrant.
"Shashasha, delicious, delicious."
Goudan's mother didn't care that it was hot and ate one in one bite.
The other women also ate with great joy. It was the bean curd cakes sprinkled with spices that were truly delicious.
"Alright, just eat one and try it. Don't keep eating until the host tells you to."
The village chief's wife ate one and stopped eating, and did not allow other women to eat at the same time.
They had already eaten six and were still holding money, so they really didn't have the nerve to eat more.
"It's okay, Village Chief's wife, there's still plenty left, feel free to eat."
Even if Li Mengyue asked them to eat, the women would restrain themselves and not eat. They knew that being the first to taste the new food was enough for them to show off.
So several women continued to help, and soon all the bean dregs cakes were ready.
Li Mengyue kept some and prepared to feed the rest to the people who planted trees on the mountain.
The tofu has been formed, and while the pan is still hot, Li Mengyue wants to make some fried tofu.
The village head's wife saw Li Mengyue making tofu and asked, "Yue girl, the tofu is ready."
"Yes, Village Chief Granny, please help me cut the tofu into small pieces."
"Oh, okay!"
Soon, a strange aroma wafted out of the Li family yard again, making people swallow their saliva.
"What delicious food did the Li family cook? It smells so good, it makes me hungry."
"Who says it's not? This is the first time I've smelled such a fragrant scent. Hurry up and take a few more puffs. If you can get it, you'll be lucky."
"That makes sense."
…
The villagers who came to the Li family to sell locusts as usual stood at the door, their noses stretched forward, breathing in the fragrance in the air.
“Squeak!”
"ah!"
The villagers who were madly inhaling the fragrance opened their eyes wide, their faces turned red like monkey butts, and they didn't know where to put the small bamboo baskets in their hands.
