Chapter 7 Wild Vegetable Buns

wild vegetable steamed stuffed bun

The noodles are black noodles, not as strong as white noodles, but there is no big problem with steamed buns.Because he was in a hurry to eat, Ye Xiaofeng didn't pay attention to the shape of the buns, but made them very big, each one was the size of a palm, and the thin dough was filled with stuffing.

Although the bun is big, the layers of wrinkles on the skin of the bun are dense and uniform, as beautiful as a blooming chrysanthemum, which makes Father Ye and Lan'er amazed.

Ye Xiaofeng smiled and didn't say anything, which meant that Ye's father and Lan'er thought it was good. If it was placed in Lin's house, it would be his aunt's in-law's house. His grandma and cousin would definitely roll their eyes and scold him that the buns are so big that people eat them. Or the animals ate it.

After being dependent on others for so many years, he wanted to leave a long time ago, but it was because of his aunt's face.He knew that getting the money back might not be an ordinary difficulty, but he just thought that he could leave by himself.But he knew that it wasn't easy. He had been taking care of the Lin family all these years by himself. How could he let him go so easily? He had nothing to say just because he was given a big hat to raise him. .

It's just that he didn't expect that he could travel to this world. Although he was poor and backward, he also found the family relationship he had lost for many years.What's more, he is not afraid of being poor at all. He has some ideas and some ideas. It is only a matter of time before he becomes rich.

What made him most gratified was that the jade pendant left to him by his mother also came into this world with him.Breaking free from the shackles and being reborn, he felt that this was probably an opportunity given to him by God.

The buns were all wrapped up soon, water was placed in the big pot, and a grate was placed on top of it, and the buns were neatly stacked into the pot with a special kind of leaf cushion.

This steamed stuffed bun has a thin skin, as long as the fire is turned on, it will be cooked in a moment.Lan'er sat under the stove, burning two large pots.

In fact, the bone soup has been cooked well, and the white radish inside can be easily poked in with chopsticks. It can be said that the white radish at this time has reached the point of melting in the mouth.

Ye Xiaofeng went to the yard and carried the treated offal, including the treated rabbit, to the wing.Although the Ye family is poor, but because of the small population, this house has a surplus. One room was specially made as a warehouse, and the other one with a thatched roof and no door was used as a utility room. Some sundries that are not needed for the time being.

Ye Xiaofeng took a fancy to the ventilated and cool features of this shed, and hung the offals with ropes to keep the meat for a few more days.Although the current weather is not perfect, but the weather is getting hotter every day, if he wants to make money from this, this place is a good way.

The steaming steamed buns with wild vegetables were finally out of the pot. Ye Xiaofeng was busy putting the buns into the prepared basket, while the bone soup in the other pot had already been turned off.

Put the buns on the table, each person has a small bowl with a shallow bowl of vinegar inside.

For the bone soup, take out the onion, ginger, garlic, etc. used to remove the fishy smell, and fill a large bowl with radish pieces.In the light golden bone soup, white radish pieces are undulating up and down, and a seductive fragrance penetrates into people's noses. It is more appetizing than the basket of white and fat buns on the table.

Sure enough, the father and daughter picked up the bowl first instead of the buns.

Ye Xiaofeng also took a sip of the bone soup.There is not much salt in the soup, so the taste can be said to be a bit bland, but he is eating this soup with steamed buns, so it doesn't need a lot of flavor, as long as it is nutritious.

Looking at the yellow and thin faces of the Ye family, even Ye's father is an adult with a bad complexion.On weekdays, there are some brown rice and boiled dishes, and you can’t see any fishy smell. If you can eat it and your face is rosy, then it’s hell!

After drinking two mouthfuls of bone soup, Ye Xiaofeng greeted Father Ye and Lan'er to eat steamed buns.Although the skin of the bun is a bit black, it is smooth and elastic. When you bite it down, the mixture of gravy and vegetable juice inside flows into your mouth instantly.

Ye Xiaofeng quickly took a sip, but saw Father Ye and Lan'er acting the same as him, the whole family took a sip on the steamed stuffed bun, and burst out laughing.

Father Ye gave Ye Xiaofeng an embarrassed look.Fortunately, most of the gravy in this bun has been absorbed by the amaranth. The soft and tender vegetable leaves are mixed with the burnt minced meat. It is extremely delicious to bite down with both vegetables and meat.

The three of them ate with their heads down, and no one had time to say a word. Occasionally, when their mouths were vacant, they lowered their heads to drink the bone soup and eat the white radish pieces inside.

The three didn't stop until they couldn't eat any more.There were more than thirty big steamed buns with vegetables and meat in this pot, each with thin skin and big stuffing, even if you let go of your stomach to eat, you only ate half of the pot.

If the meat in the buns is not counted, the food used for this meal is even less than the usual meal.Although these dishes are easy to digest, they don't need to spend a penny, and at worst, they can eat more when they are hungry.

The father and son lay on the kang with their stomachs outstretched, Lan'er smiled helplessly and cleaned up the table.

Of the thirty or so buns, Father Ye produced twelve, Ye Xiaofeng also ate seven, and even Lan'er ate four. It can be said that this is the most satisfying meal Ye Xiaofeng has eaten since he came to this world. meal.

There were more than a dozen steamed buns left, and half a pot of bone soup. They were so full at noon that the three of them felt that they wouldn't be hungry if they didn't eat at night.So Father Ye and Lan'er helped Ye Xiaofeng with work in the afternoon, and did not go to the fields or cook.

Ye's family has a broken car, because it has not been used all year round, half of the car board has rotted away.Father Ye found some tools to replace the rotten parts of the car board with new wood and set it up. He also polished the wheels to make them lighter.

Lan'er made a big pot of noodles, put some old noodles on it, kneaded it and put it on the stove to let the noodles rise.Ye Xiaofeng rummaged around in the granary to see if there were any sesame seeds, but he didn't find many sesame seeds, but he found half a bag of soybeans, which weighed more than ten catties.

Seeing the half bag of soybeans, Ye Xiaofeng fell into deep thought.

There is no soy sauce in this world, and Lan'er has never even heard of anything like it.It's just that if there is no soy sauce, many delicacies cannot be prepared, which makes Ye Xiaofeng very distressed.

Now he suddenly found this half bag of soybeans, and he suddenly remembered, isn't this soybean the main ingredient for brewing soy sauce?It's just that he doesn't know how the soybeans can be turned into soy sauce.

In the time and space he was in, whether it was soy sauce and vinegar or more complex and delicious seasonings, he could buy them in supermarkets.There is no need to make it yourself. Although he knows that soy sauce is brewed from soybeans, he really doesn't know the specific method.Not only soy sauce, but also other seasonings, he didn't know anything about it.

Ye Xiaofeng suddenly felt a wave of frustration welling up in his heart. Fortunately, he was still planning to do a big job in this backward foreign world. Who would have thought that he would know nothing.I can barely cook, but I still lack salt and oil.

Dejectedly putting half a bag of soybeans at the door, Ye Xiaofeng decided not to worry about the soy sauce, the most important thing now is to make money.

Ye Xiaofeng cut the pork liver into thin slices, the pig heart into the same thin slices, and the pig large intestine, mixed black flour and salt with minced green onion, ginger and garlic to make a paste, and stuffed it into the large intestine.The filled intestines were tied with straw ropes and hung on hooks on the roof of the shed.

I can't eat this pig large intestine today, so I can marinate it. For the other two, Ye Xiaofeng plans to cook it tonight, and let Father Ye and Lan'er try the dishes made from this offal.

This meal did not start until nightfall.Lan'er picked cucumbers, green garlic, green peppers, etc. according to Ye Xiaofeng's wishes, and also found all the seasonings such as onion, ginger, garlic, and dried peppers.He is going to make a hot pork heart and a fried liver tip. These two dishes are home-cooked dishes. Although the condiments are a bit lacking, they can be eaten if the heat is well controlled.

"Brother, is this pig's heart really edible?" Lan Er asked, pointing to the already cut pig's heart.

"Mmm, delicious." Ye Xiaofeng scratched Lan'er's nose, "Greedy cat!"

"Hey..." Lan'er smiled embarrassedly.

The pig's heart has been sliced ​​and marinated in a small bowl with bad wine from Lan'er and salt. There is a sea bowl next to it, which is marinated with pork liver.

Heat up a spoonful of vegetable oil. When it is [-]% hot, add dried chili, green onion and ginger and saute until fragrant. Drain the marinated pork heart and pour the marinated wine into the pot.Lan'er added a few handfuls of firewood to increase the fire, and Ye Xiaofeng stir-fried the pig's heart with high heat.

Because there is no cooking wine and soy sauce, I can only pour some white wine from the call, and add green garlic and other ingredients.Twist a pinch of fine salt with your hands and sprinkle it evenly, then stir fry a few times, and take it out of the pan.

The pork liver is a little more complicated, and more oil is put in. Put the pork liver in the pan and let it cook, put the cucumber slices and green peppers in the pan, stir fry on high heat, and finally put the pork liver that has been slid to half-cooked In the pot, sprinkle wine and stir fry together.The smell of pork liver is stronger than that of hot pig heart, and the whole outhouse is filled with the special smell of pork liver.

No new staple food was made at night, the bone soup was reheated, and the steamed buns at noon and the leftover pancakes in the morning were resteamed with a grate on top.

Two meat dishes, plus vegetable and meat buns, and bone soup, each of which is not usually eaten.

There was less than half of the bad wine in the flagon, so Ye Xiaofeng brushed a small wine cup, poured a glass with his own hands, and brought it to Father Ye.

Holding the wine glass, Father Ye felt a little emotional. He hadn't had a drink or a meal on this normal day for many years.

These years have been very tight, although the food and drink of the second son Ye Xingfeng are missing, but a strong labor is also missing.There is no way to make money in the family, so they can only be frugal blindly, which makes the children look yellow and emaciated.Not to mention that the daughter has no one's Shui Ling, even the son has never eaten too much.

Father Ye shook his head, he is an incompetent father.

"Father, you eat this!" Ye Xiaofeng added a chopstick to smear the tip of the liver, and put another chopstick in Lan'er's bowl, with a smile on his face, "Lan'er, try my brother's cooking."

Although Lan'er hesitated for a moment, she couldn't help the smell of the pork liver, and gently took a piece into her mouth.After chewing a few times, he looked at Ye Xiaofeng with bright eyes, "Brother, this is delicious, even better than meat!"

"It's delicious." Ye Xiaofeng had a smug face, "Lan'er, you said we put this up for sale, can someone sell it?"
