Rebirth of farming for a living

"What do you want to grind? There is a stone mill in your yard."

"I know I have milk, but since we have a workshop, we will need it all year round."

Just do a little bit of work, but in this case, it is obviously impossible to go to the old house every day.

Li Xiangnan saw that Li Qiuyan was determined to buy it, but there was nothing he could do.

There was a stone mill manufacturer in the next village. Li Xiangnan went to talk to him in the morning, and they sent it over and installed it in the afternoon.

According to Li Qiuyan's request, he was placed in the backyard.

This recipe is designated to be kept secret.

To say that the well dug at home was really good, Li Qiuyan drew water directly from the well and started washing the sweet potatoes on the well platform.

It was quite troublesome to do it once, so Li Qiuyan simply washed two baskets.

But she couldn't push the stone mill.

Li Xiangnan pushed for a while and was panting from exhaustion. He waited until Jiang Zhe came back and pushed with Li Xiangnan for a long time before grinding both baskets of sweet potatoes into a paste.

I picked up several large pots.

Li Qiuyan wanted to fetch water, but Jiang Zhe grabbed it and did it.

Wang and Wang Congcong also came over to help, and they finally worked until midnight before getting out a few buckets of stuff.

Li Qiuyan was very tired: "Just leave it alone, I will do it tomorrow."

"Don't you want this scumbag?" Ms. Wang was a little confused.

"No, it's useless." The purpose is to make sweet potato starch, so the sweet potato residue wrung out with gauze is naturally useless.

"It's a pity to throw it away."

"What a shame, the essence has come out." Li Qiuyan smiled.

"Yes, we don't have any pigs at home. This thing is good for feeding pigs. Don't throw it away yet. Give it to me later and see if the pigs can eat it."

After being reminded, Li Qiuyan suddenly remembered that in the village he went to in his previous life, these things were used to feed pigs. He didn't have them at home, but in his backyard.

And since this stuff is fermented, it’s also good to use on the ground.

When he got up the next day, before Li Qiuyan even washed his face, he ran to the backyard to look at the buckets of things.

At this time, the sweet potato flour has settled to the bottom, with clear water on top.

Li Qiuyan poured out the water on top with all his strength. There was really white starch underneath, but it was still wet inside.

Li Qiuyan twisted it, um, carefully.

Jiang Zhe also got up. Seeing Li Qiuyan's operation, he silently helped Li Qiuyan pour out the remaining buckets of water.

Li Qiuyan went to get two large baskets, put a layer of gauze underneath, and put all the wet starch on them to dry.

The rest of the time is waiting.

They have not been idle these two days. Li Qiuyan and Li Xiangnan picked sweet potatoes at home when they had nothing to do.

There is nothing I can do. I have to select a lot of seeds for planting, and I will plant a second crop in a few days.

Time passed very quickly when she was busy. This afternoon, Li Qiuyan went to see the sweet potato noodles she was drying and found that they were completely dry.

Gather the starch together and the vermicelli is ready to be made.

First add the starch and water to the pot in a ratio of one, and heat until it bubbles, then the starch will be cooked.

Put another pot of water on the boil, put the cooked flour into the basin, then add twice the amount of cornstarch and stir evenly.

Wait until the water boils and take out the cleaned mold.

I don’t know how Carpenter Lin made this mold, but the holes on it are evenly sized.

Place the mixed starch on the mold and keep tapping it with your hands. After a while, the flour will form into strips and be lowered into the pot in rows.

Li Xiangnan, who was cooking the pot below, opened his mouth into an O shape.

Li Qiuyan had no time to care about Li Xiangnan's expression. When the vermicelli floated, he scooped it into a basin filled with cold water and simmered it.

A lot of it was made at once, and it just so happened that after everyone tasted it, they could still dry some more.

Li Qiuyan took a bite and found that the vermicelli was very strong, but slightly thicker than the ones he often bought in his previous life.

But it was already pretty good. Li Qiuyan nodded with satisfaction: "Successful, Dad, you can go outside and pull a rope."

After Li Xiangnan finished pulling the rope, Li Qiuyan hung up the prepared vermicelli. Although there was only a small row, it looked neat.

After making vermicelli, it would be a bit anti-human not to try it.

Vermicelli, how can we make people who eat it for the first time feel its charm?

There are so many things you can do with vermicelli, including stews, stuffings, and everything else.

Li Qiuyan’s favorite is vermicelli.

Unfortunately, although the peppers have grown, they are not fully mature yet.

Chili peppers were too precious, and Li Qiuyan didn't want to waste any of them.

Otherwise, make hot and sour noodles, which would also be delicious.

Li Xiangnan loves meat, so Li Qiuyan planned to make pork stewed vermicelli first.

Cut the three-layered pork belly into slices, sauté the onion and ginger until fragrant. When the fat meat is fried, add salt and autumn oil, and add some water to stew.

Boil the water, add the freshly made vermicelli, wait until the vermicelli is full of soup, the vegetable soup becomes thick, and the pork stewed vermicelli is ready.
