Chapter 268: Eat anything if you don't die of hunger
After turning off the heat, Li Xiaomei asked the jelly in the iron pot to quickly put it out into the basin and told her to be fast.
Women may be born for the kitchen. Of course, she refers to women of this era. After all, after getting married, they revolve around their husbands’ house, around the kitchen, and take care of their parents-in-law and husbands and children. This is something that every girl will definitely teach at her mother before getting married.
Seeing Li Xiaomei's moves quickly and put a pot of sweet potato jelly on it, blinking, her eyes couldn't help but slash Li Xiaomei's arm. After moving so quickly, she would turn into ape's arm for a long time...
"What should I do now?" Although the glance of Chaole's arm turned away quickly, Li Xiaomei saw it. She didn't feel Chaole's malice, and she didn't think much about it. She smiled and asked about the next work.
He pointed to the cold water tank next to him, "Put it in there, don't worry about it for the time being." Then he remembered something and told Li Xiaomei not to forget to find a cloth or lid after putting it in the tank to change the basin first to prevent dust and other debris from falling into it to affect hygiene.
"What to do next?" Li Xiaomei, who had been learning for almost two hours, has gradually entered the state and began to take the initiative to ask what she wanted to learn next.
The fried buns and fried dough sticks were taught by the way. The flour was just fermenting, so Zhao Ma took out the meat and chopped the meat filling, mixed it, and then asked Li Xiaomei to make the buns together.
One by one, only a little bigger than the fingers, Li Xiaomei listened to Zhao's mother explaining to her that it was a crystal bag, and then watched Zhao's mother clean a small pot with a flat bottom on the stove. When she was confused, Zhao's explanation entered her ears.
After listening to it, she secretly smacked her tongue. She also heard her mother say that Chaole was capable and could earn money, but the way to eat this crystal bag is to be paid. Otherwise, if anyone has a bun with such a small pericarp and a thin skin, he would have to spend time fermenting it first. Then, this oil, and that pot, who specializes in making that pot just to eat such a hard-working, oil-intensive bun, unless it is rich to cook it.
However, when crystals are wrapped in a pot and fry them, then put them on the plate and come out of the pot, the lingering fragrance makes Li Xiaomei unable to help swallowing her saliva, and she sighs even more that the food that rich people eat is exquisite, and it smells so good...
Aunt Li was in poor health, and Chaole didn't let her eat too much. Seeing that the old man was staring at the crystal bag reluctantly, he smiled and whispered in her ear.
"Really?" He looked at Chaole as persistently as a child, and asked in surprise.
"Of course, when did I lied to you?" Looking at Aunt Li's unbelievable gaze, Chao Le couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and asked.
Aunt Li nodded repeatedly after hearing this, but Chaole never deceived her.
This crystal bag is delicious, and she is indeed greedy, but Chaole also said that she is not suitable for her to eat more, so she will make it for her when she is well. Then let her pack some of the crystal bags she made today and go back for Awen and the others to eat. This is why she was so excited after listening to Chaole's words just now.
In the end, Li Xiaomei was very good at making fried dough sticks. Chaole also told Li Xiaomei about the making methods, advantages and disadvantages of fried dough sticks. Aunt Li next to her also heard it clearly.
I thought Li Xiaomei couldn't make this fried dough stick, but she didn't want Aunt Li to speak first, "The reused old oil is often used by the merchants all year round. Who can be rich? Healthy or unhealthy is not the most important thing for ordinary people. The most important thing is to eat, and the second is to be able to eat enough. This fried dough stick is as small as a piece of flour, which can make such a big fried dough stick. I think this business is done."
"Yes, I still remember that during the Chinese New Year when I was a child, our family was assigned to the village to slaughter pork. You couldn't bear to eat it, but when you found that the meat was smelly, you couldn't bear to throw it away. You still made it to eat it, and you didn't see anything." Li Xiaomei nodded and agreed.
After hearing this, Zhao Ma stopped talking. Indeed, as a servant, she had never experienced the hard life of a farmer who could not eat enough or wear warmth. But I have also heard that some poor families wanted to eat meat, even plague pork. It is said that those people said that they would be willing to eat a bite of meat and die the next moment.
You can imagine how difficult life is for a poor family.
"But old oil cannot be used for too long. In addition to being unhealthy, old oil used for too long will also affect the color and taste of the fried dough sticks..." After hearing Aunt Li and Li Xiaomei's words, Chaole was relieved. Many people in modern times often eat fried dough sticks. Forget it, since you want to eat it, then eat it, but the taste and appearance are good, she still needs to remind the two of them.
"I understand. I will definitely pay attention to this later." Li Xiaomei's eyes were sincere. Among the snacks she learned, fried dough sticks seemed to be fried with a lot of oil, but in fact, they were the snacks with the most profitable income. She could hear clearly what her mother had just said, and there was a connection between the mother and daughter. When her mother said that, she understood it, so she quickly spoke.
If you want to sell fried dough sticks, then as a modern person, you may immediately think that the one who can become a golden partner with fried dough sticks is definitely soy milk.
However, she used soy milk machines to make soy milk in modern times. In this era, she should have to be ground with a stone mill. She has not studied the specifics, but this thing is more common. Because of the existence of tofu, many people naturally know soy milk. Chaole did not intend to teach Li Xiaomei himself, but just told her that she could add soy milk, tofu, and tofu can add seasonings.
"Don't be so nervous. I'll write it down for you later and remember it slowly. Also, you need to experiment a few more times. First of all, the things you make must taste the requirements of your own family. Everyone nodded and felt that the taste was OK, so you could set up a stall, do you know?" Looking at Li Xiaomei's head-snap and frowning, thinking about what she learned today, she said so much to Zhao Ma. Looking at her expression, she was probably nervous and could not recall the production methods and steps of the things she learned just now.
"But I don't recognize too many words." My fingers stirred each other and looked at Chaole with a little hesitation.
"...If your in-laws are not in a hurry to go back, why don't you come up the mountain these days? Repeat it and do it more often. When you can do it all, Zhao Ma nodded and agreed. How about you go back?" When he said this, Chaole was not sure about Li Xiaomei's decision. After all, she was a married daughter, so she naturally put her in-laws first.
As a result, this time, Li Xiaomei nodded directly without Aunt Li's advice.
