After the filling is prepared, Jiang Yu holds the tender yellow dough in his hands, presses it into a pancake shape, places the red bean paste filling in the center, then slowly wraps the pancake skin and slowly wraps the red bean paste filling.
"Do you understand?" Jiang Yu rolled the dough into a smooth ball and held it in the palm of her hand to show the little one.
Jiang Yunzhou nodded seriously: "I understand." Then he kneaded the dough seriously with his little paws.
Although it is still bumpy, it is made with great care and the filling inside can be seen.
Seeing this, Jiang Yu didn't care about him anymore. After all, he could eat it at home.
When Jiang Yunfan came back from school, he saw everyone gathered around the bread oven waiting for the mooncakes to come out of the oven.
The sweet and soft aroma filled the whole yard. Jiang Yu took down the wooden board of the bread oven and used a long brush to brush a layer of egg yolk liquid on the mooncakes inside.
Jiang Yunfan threw his schoolbag over and ran over: "Sister, what are you doing? It smells so good."
Jiang Yu: "Mooncake."
Jiang Yunfan swallowed secretly: "Can I eat now?"
"Soon"
When the mooncakes came out of the pan, everyone looked at them.
The mooncakes were all the same size and neatly arranged on the plate. The crust was golden brown and the raised patterns were reddish-brown. They gave off a sweet aroma, with the warmth of being fresh out of the oven, and it smelled very long and mellow.
Jiang Yu carefully took out the mooncake and saw Jiang Yunfan's eager little paws, so she warned him, "Be careful, it's hot."
Jiang Yunfan nodded, lowered his head and blew gently for a moment, then Jiang Yu picked up the mooncake in front of him.
Then hold the freshly baked five-nut mooncake in your hand, take a bite while it is still warm, and the rich, sweet heat will immediately fill your mouth, soaking your lips and cheeks, giving you an inexplicable sense of happiness and satisfaction.
The mooncakes have a light, crispy, and soft crust, while the filling is firm. The filling is made from chopped walnuts and melon seeds mixed with sugar, giving it a sweet, nutty, and oily aroma.
Jiang Yu asked, "How does it taste?"
After swallowing it, Jiang Yunfan's eyes lit up: "Sister, it's so delicious."
"Do you think it's a bit sweet?"
"No, why is it sweet?" Jiang Yunfan said in surprise: "It tastes very good."
"That's good."
After two days of hard work, Jiang Yu and his team reopened their stall on Saturday.
As soon as we arrived, diners came up and talked a lot.
"Boss, why haven't you come these two days?"
"Yeah, I miss the food at your house."
"Could it be that he was frightened by those people who came to cause trouble a few days ago?"
"Oh, no, I didn't know that. If all the food shops weren't state-owned now, I would have rented the shop on the nearby street to you, boss. What a shame."
Jiang Yu placed the mooncakes and cakes on the table she had brought, and smiled at the old man who had spoken last, "That's great. Thank you, sir. I'll find you when I can open a shop in the future."
"The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, so I made some mooncakes and cakes at home these past two days. Come on, everyone can try them before buying."
Then he cut some mooncakes and cakes into small pieces and handed them to the old man and diners in front.
"If you want to buy milk tea and popcorn, go to my grandfather and brother's place."
"Oh, this mooncake is delicious."
"This cake is so fragrant and soft, and it tastes like milk. It's so delicious! How much is it? I want to buy some more to take home for my family."
Jiang Yu smiled as she worked, "Mooncakes are 30 cents each, there's a Mid-Autumn Festival discount, buy ten get one free, and cakes are 15 cents each, buy five get one free."
The first customer who tasted the food excitedly said, "Little girl, give me ten mooncakes and five cakes."
"Okay." Jiang Yu took out eleven mooncakes and six cakes and put them in an oil paper bag.
With the first one, the second one will naturally follow.
Although the food is a little expensive, it is delicious. Except for those who are really in financial difficulty and cannot bear to spend money, most people who have tried it will buy some, or buy two mooncakes for the festival.
It would be painful to buy too much, but one or two are still affordable.
People like to watch the fun. Seeing that there were a lot of people gathered around Jiang Yu, they all came over to watch the fun, and as a result, Grandpa Jiang's business became better.
After closing the stall, Grandpa Jiang looked at Jiang Yu with a fierce face: "Xiaoyu, you can't hide everything from me in the future. Although my health is not as good as before, at least I still have some skills. Don't handle things alone in the future. Remember to tell me."
Jiang Yu nodded in agreement, and then tried to please Grandpa Jiang. Grandpa Jiang couldn't bear to continue talking when he saw her face that resembled an old wife and she made a pitiful expression.
After returning home, Jiang Yu went to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy things with Grandma Shen next door.
Because it was a festival, the supply and marketing cooperative was crowded with people, and many things were snatched away as soon as they were taken out.
This also made Jiang Yu realize once again how scarce the material things were in that era. If this happened in the future, there would be so much food that it could not be eaten up and there would be no shortage of food.
In the end, Jiang Yu only managed to grab two kilograms of pig intestines.
This thing was left over because everyone was reluctant to use salt to wash it and reluctant to use seasoning. Otherwise, it would not be her turn.
Shen Wanrong was not interested in pig intestines and ended up buying only some vegetables.
But she was not worried because her family had extra vegetables and a lot of food stored at home. Even if there was nothing, Wei Zhiguo would find a way to get it.
The ingredients were limited, so Jiang Yu thought about it and decided to make dumplings, braised pig intestines and a dish of cold shredded potatoes.
