For the elderly, they are very accustomed to using such big pots and stoves to cook. Even before they traveled through time, they used them many times a year in the countryside. Especially when making big dishes, a big pot of stew is much more convenient than cooking with a small pot. After all, it is really troublesome to cook with a small pot when there are many people.
Also, when cooking rice or rice cakes, it’s simply not possible to use a small pot.
So he is very nimble now.
However, even on the big stove there is a small pot embedded in which eggs are being boiled.
There are many people in my family, and the daily consumption of eggs is very huge. The first pot has been cooked, and I picked out 6 to eat in the morning. I now add star anise and tea leaves to the rest and plan to make tea eggs.
The eggshells have been cracked a little bit, so that the tea eggs will be more flavorful.
The remaining pot is used to cook rice noodles.
This thing is very simple and requires no skills at all. Rice flour made from japonica rice is mixed into rice paste. A little bit of flour is added to the rice paste and mixed well. This will make it easier to shape and the taste will be chewier.
Then scoop up a spoon, spread it flat in the container, put it into the boiling water, and cover the pot.
The rice noodles cook very quickly, and huge bubbles will appear in the steam, which means they are cooked.
You can scrape it off with a scraper and eat it, or you can tear it off as a whole and roll it up to eat.
But it’s better to eat it with soup early in the morning. In fact, the children in the family also like Cantonese rice rolls, but relatively speaking they prefer to eat rice rolls with soup. In addition, I specially added flour when adjusting it today, so it’s better to eat rice rolls with soup.
Because the container is relatively large, one person can be full by scraping two sheets of rice noodles.
Scraping the rice paper is a technical job. If you scrape it too thick or too continuously, it will taste a little less delicious.
Be sure to scrape it quickly and with small movements to make it thin and elastic!
After the rice noodles are cooked, they are placed in bowls one by one. However, because only a little bit of salt was added when preparing the rice milk, the rice noodles themselves are actually tasteless, so the soup needs to be prepared now.
This is different from the slightly thick soup in rice noodle rolls, which is like starch for thickening. This is a real soup.
Considering that not everyone likes to eat meaty food as early in the morning as the two children do, two pots of soup need to be made.
This kind of thing is very annoying, but Grandma Xu enjoys it completely. For her, being able to take care of the diet and life of the younger generations is the happiest thing.
When her son was young, the family was poor and she didn't have the ability to feed him well.
They were not around when the little rabbit and the little tiger were young, so they missed many years. Now that they have this opportunity, she feels very happy.
Today we are going to make two kinds of soup: meat soup and vegetable soup, so that your family can choose according to their taste.
The broth is made with minced pork belly. After stir-frying, add dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt, chicken essence and cooking wine, then add water and simmer. When it is almost time to serve, just cut the green onions into small circles and throw them in.
The broth is very simple to make, but it tastes really good. The base broth of various noodle soups in the store actually tastes like this, without adding those inappropriate spices.
However, they added a lot of minced meat at home, after all, the two children are really carnivores.
This is not enough, you have to add a large steak.
But this doesn't have to be made right now, because the pork ribs are very complicated to prepare. After marinating, they need to be fried and then pressure-cooked. So Grandma Xu made it last night in the house behind the portal. Now all you have to do is take out the pork ribs, heat them in the broth, and then put them directly on the rice noodles.
Pour a full spoonful of minced meat and broth on top, and the unique rice aroma of the whole bowl of rice noodles will be stimulated.
Take a few small plates, put a piece of fermented bean curd with fermented lees and a tea egg on them, and you're done.
I have to say... the portion is really huge, the kind that two or three normal children can't finish... but it will definitely be no problem for the little rabbit and tiger cub at home.
Of course, this is also Grandma Xu’s own idea. She always wants to make large portions of dishes for her children, as if she is always worried that the children will not have enough to eat.
As for the adult soup, she is also very clear about it, but this one is simpler. Stir-fry the sauerkraut and bamboo shoots, add water and bring to a boil, then sprinkle with a handful of dried shrimps and a small amount of chopped green onions and it is ready to serve.
“It’s time to eat!!”
This sound is the switch that turns on "morning", and the family members quickly sit down at the table.
However, everyone's image is still very different. Mother Xu and Father Xu are already dressed neatly. Although they are wearing clothes of this era, I don't know if it is because of the spirit or something else, in short, they look like modern people taking the retro style.
Xu Yuanhu was still in his pajamas, but he had obviously washed up. Only Xu Tiantu was still dazed, with mucus hanging from the corners of his eyes and his hair was a mess, obviously having just crawled out of bed.
Of course, this didn't stop her from immediately starting to chow down on the meat.
"Hey hey hey! Drink your milk first!!"
Mother Xu quickly handed the milk to him, but he frowned and swallowed it in one gulp! Then his whole face wrinkled.
"Is it really that serious? How is it like drinking poison?"
