Chapter 228 It’s so delicious
Zhu Suisui told the Zhu family what Fantuan needed.
But they still seem to have only a vague understanding of it.
Why does this rice ball seem different from what they imagined?
Xu Hui frowned, "You are talking about rice with vegetables, right? Can anyone eat something like this?"
If you want to eat, why don't you make it at home?
Isn't this just putting some vegetables in the rice? It sounds like it has no special features.
Zhu Suisui just smiled and said, "How about this, second brother and Wenrou come with me to buy some ingredients. Then you can taste them and see if there is any difference."
I've seen people say this.
I hope my family can put aside their doubts for now, as there is still a long time in the afternoon.
It was a good opportunity for Zhu Lechen to familiarize himself with the surrounding environment.
Just do it.
The three of them went to the vegetable market in the afternoon.
We need to prepare some simple dishes so that people can have choices, but in winter, there are fewer choices of dishes in the city.
But it doesn't matter. Zhu Suisui bought radishes, potatoes, shepherd's purse, and some eggs. Vegetables here need to be purchased in large quantities, so she bought about ten kilograms of each.
This even scared Zhu Lechen.
He pulled Zhu Suisui over and whispered, "You bought too much. You just wanted to try it out to see how it tasted. If it doesn't work, then it would be a waste."
"This is how it is to buy vegetables here. Look, we still have dozens of kilograms of cabbage stored in our house. Ten kilograms is already considered a small amount. Didn't you see that the boss's face doesn't look too good?" Zhu Suisui pointed at the owner of the vegetable stall.
Actually, I should have bought it in the morning, when the vegetables are freshest. But fortunately, the temperature here is low, so even if the vegetables are left outside like this, they can be kept for many days, so there is no need to worry about these.
Of course, I didn't just pick a random store to buy food for the New Year. There are quite a few stalls selling vegetables here. This place is quite lively and can be considered a small agricultural market. You can find relatively rich food resources here, and there are also people selling snacks here.
The living environment in the north and the south is different, so the trading habits are also different.
They have been freezing it here for quite some time. If people just buy it in half-pound or pound quantities, the stall owner probably won't want to do business like that.
Hearing this, Zhu Lechen took a look and found that the other party was indeed fierce.
He muttered something.
"It seems like selling vegetables in the north is more profitable than here."
Zhu Suisui laughed and said, "That's not necessarily true. If you buy more vegetables, the price will be cheaper."
Just like what she bought, although she only bought ten kilograms of each item, because this stall sells the most comprehensive products and has almost everything she wants, so she bought everything here.
When you add them all up, it’s not a small amount.
Radishes cost one yuan, potatoes cost one yuan, shepherd's purse cost fifty cents, and eggs cost ten yuan. In total, I spent only twelve yuan and sixty cents.
It's really not expensive.
Zhu Suisui also bought some chili peppers, and took people to buy seasonings and sugar.
In fact, the most expensive thing is white sugar.
Because white sugar is a little difficult to get, if you want to buy white sugar without a ticket, the price will definitely go up. White sugar that costs 0.90 cents per pound in the supply and marketing cooperative will cost 1.2 yuan outside. Zhu Sui was heartbroken.
In order to bargain, she asked for six kilograms of sugar, which cost RMB 7.2, and she managed to get it down to RMB 6.6.
Zhu Suisui said seriously, "Seven dollars and two cents sounds bad, let's just say six dollars and six cents. Boss, you will make a fortune in business, what a good sign. What's more, I bought a lot, I will come back to buy from you and recommend you someone."
Anyway, she kept fooling around and finally got chopped down by her.
Wu Wenrou, who was in charge of getting things, was stunned. "Sister Sui is such a good talker. I want to learn from her!"
Zhu Lechen also discovered it.
In the past, his sister was more shy. Apart from being with the Zhu family, she seldom interacted with outsiders. In his impression, Zhu Suisui was still the one who needed his protection, otherwise she would be bullied and cheated.
But I don’t know when it started.
Zhu Suisui has changed.
Zhu Lechen doesn't think this change is a bad thing.
At least he doesn't have to worry about his sister being bullied.
Zhu Suisui went to buy another 20 kilograms of glutinous rice and 5 kilograms of pork.
The things are all bought.
It cost about thirty dollars in total.
In fact, for Zhu Suisui, this is not a lot of money at all. After all, the business she is doing now is worth hundreds or thousands of dollars.
Cough cough cough.
I couldn't help but start to act arrogant.
After returning home, Zhu Suisui started cooking.
It's really simple.
Zhu Suisui thinks that it does not require any technical skills. There are no disposable plastic bags now, but oil paper can also be used as a substitute. After the glutinous rice is prepared, it is steamed. This takes a little time, so Zhu Suisui waits until the glutinous rice is ready before starting to wash, cut and prepare the vegetables.
But this time we can’t eat shepherd’s purse and cabbage.
She planned to dry the shepherd's purse and make it into dried vegetables, and the cabbage to make sauerkraut, so that she would have more flavors to choose from. As for the pile of peppers, she planned to make chili sauce.
The radish can be diced and pickled into diced radish, which is also easier to store.
Also stir-fry shredded potatoes and fry an egg. You can add all of these ingredients or add more according to your personal taste.
If you want to eat it today, you can only have shredded potatoes with eggs. She made the pork into large chops and brined it with seasoning, and the fragrance soon spread everywhere.
Wait till it's done.
Old Man Shou also came back.
When Xu Hui saw the person, she called out, "Uncle Shou, do you want to come over and try it? Sui Sui has come up with something new."
Being called by this face, Old Man Shou had no way of refusing.
But the scent is indeed pungent enough.
Old man Shou swallowed.
What's wrong with this little devil?
The craftsmanship is so good!
She didn't look like someone who could cook, but she was very smart, pretty, and well-dressed, but he never thought that Zhu Suisui could cook.
Thinking of the bowl of fried noodles at noon, Old Man Shou decided to follow his heart.
He walked in and saw that Zhu Suisui had placed scrambled eggs, fried shredded potatoes, and small pieces of chops mixed in the soup on the table, which gave off a meaty aroma. There was also a bowl of rice next to it.
Zhu Suisui held a rice spoon in one hand and oil paper in the other. He scooped up the rice and flattened it inside the oil paper. Then he put the dishes in, put two pieces of pork chops in there, poured a spoonful of soup in it, and then used the rice spoon to scoop up rice to cover it. He pressed it with both hands to make a round rice ball.
When I looked up, I saw Old Man Shou staring at me.
She laughed and said, "Grandpa Shou, you are a native of Beijing. Come and try it and see how it tastes."
The aroma of rice mixed with the aroma of vegetables, and the tender and juicy meat, really made everyone present salivate.
But isn’t this just rice and vegetables thrown together?
It just changed the shape.
I can’t eat it at home, why do I have to eat it like this?
Flashy.
Old Man Shou really couldn't imagine how good it tasted.
However, old man Shou still gave him face. After taking the rice ball, he took a bite. Then he couldn't help but take a second bite. In a short while, he finished the whole rice ball.
How come this rice ball tastes completely different from regular rice with vegetables? !
