91. Pumpkin flower stuffed meat and loofah three delicacies soup

In mid-June, Pearl Bay ushered in the rainy season.There was continuous rain and rain, and it was cloudy and sunny. Fortunately, the temperature in the valley was quite comfortable, unlike Baixun Town and Bailu Town, which were as hot as a steamer when the sun came out.

In the past, when the rainy season came, Ye Huangui started to have a headache.His house is located in a mountain depression, as long as the weather is humid, all kinds of snakes, insects, rats and ants will come out.Although the threshold of his house is high, there will always be some unexpected bugs in some unexpected corners.

In addition to being troubled by snakes, insects, rats and ants, the wet weather is not conducive to drying.In one year, it rained for more than 20 days in a row, and the clothes were not dry and there was a smell, and even the sheets became wet.

The worst time, the clothes he washed were not dry, and he could only wear them wet in the end.

This year the situation is quite different, mainly because two powerful guests came to his family.Tan Duzhi walked around the house, and drew a formation based on the marks of the wheelchair to keep the house dry.Even though it is raining heavily outside, the house is still dry and dry.

Wen Ruyu was even more powerful, he didn't suffer from lack of spiritual energy, as long as he waved his hand, the dripping clothes would dry quickly, as if they had been exposed to the sun.

Under the nourishment of the rain, the beans that were planted some time ago have grown to a foot long.A light green layer appeared in the ground, and the rainwater made a rustling sound on the leaves.

The increase in rain also caused the water flow in the creek to surge, and the low-lying places in the fruit forest had already accumulated water. The taste of the fruits picked these days was a bit bland and not as sweet as the previous few days.

However, not all the rain brings bad things, many fish swim upstream, and Ye Huangui's nets are always full in the past two days.

It was raining heavily today, Fu Bo asked Xiao Fuzi to send a message, saying that acupuncture and moxibustion will be suspended for a day.Ye Huangui woke up early on purpose, but in the end he didn't have to go to town.Between sleeping in the cage and collecting the net, he decisively chose the latter.

When he came back, there was half a crucian carp alive and kicking in the back basket, with pumpkin leaves pressed on the crucian carp, and a large handful of small river prawns wrapped in a pumpkin leaf.

The peaches and plums that are ripe today are placed on the leaves above. Looking at the red, green, and purple, the colors are really beautiful.

In addition, he also grabbed a large handful of golden pumpkin flowers.The rain hangs on the pumpkin flowers, which make the pumpkin flowers extremely delicate and beautiful.

Wen Ruyu nestled in the chair without any image, and raised his brows when he saw Ye Huangui enter the door: "Yo, Xiao Yezi still has a passion for flower arrangement?"

Tan Duzhi reached out to take the pumpkin flowers and the basket from Ye Hugui's hands, and Ye Hugui took off the dripping coir raincoat."It's for eating," he explained.

Wen Ruyu chuckled twice: "Are pumpkin flowers still edible?"

Ye Huangui affirmed: "Eatable! Not only can it be eaten, but it will also taste good. You'll know when I'm done."

Tan Duzhi looked at the large bouquet of pumpkin flowers in his arms. The pumpkin flowers had no fragrance, but smelled like grass.

He doesn't know much about pumpkins: "Don't pumpkin flowers keep small pumpkins? After you pick them off, you can't grow pumpkins? Or do you mean that flowers that bloom on rainy days can't grow small pumpkins?"

Ye Huangui smiled: "No, I picked all the male pumpkin flowers, and kept the female flowers."

Not only did he stay, but Ye Huangui was worried that there would be no insects pollinating in rainy days, and he even pollinated the female flowers that bloomed today.During this period, the pumpkin has just bloomed, and there is still time for one person to pollinate.When the pumpkin vines bloomed, even if he had the heart, he would not have the strength.

As soon as the words fell, two pumpkin flowers appeared in Wen Ruyu's hands, but both of them were unopened flowers, one was spindle-shaped, and the other had a small oval-shaped pumpkin under the flower.

Wen Ruyu said shyly: "Look over here, let me give you a class without distinction of grains."

Tan Duzhi turned his head with a serious expression.

Wen Ruyu pointed to the spindle-shaped flower, "Look, this is a male, there is no little pumpkin underneath."

Pointing to the flower with small pumpkins below, he said: "This is the female one. It is best to recognize the female one. There is a small pumpkin underneath. After the flowers wither, pumpkins can grow. Look carefully, many melons planted with small leaves are Such."

Tan Duzhi was taught: "It turns out that..."

Ye Huangui was concerned about another question: "Where... did you pick the pumpkin flowers?"

Wen Ruyu chuckled: "You have planted so many, don't care about one or two."

Ye Huangui was heartbroken: "Wasting food is shameful!"

Although it is just a small flower now, in the near future, it can grow into a huge pumpkin, which can eat several meals!

For today's lunch, Ye Huangui is going to make braised crucian carp, pumpkin flower stuffed meat and loofah three delicacies soup.Except for fish, all the ingredients used are grown in the ground.

The first few small loofahs were already a foot long and thick as an arm. Ye Huangui picked four of them, just enough to make a soup.

Water drops are hanging on the fresh loofah, and the loofah water is oozing from the melon pedicle.The turquoise skin is a little rough, and you can smell a loofah smell when you touch it.

Tan Duzhi took a loofah and looked at it: "Is this a loofah?"

His first impression of the loofah was that Ye Huangui used the loofah pulp that day. The loofah in front of him was fresh and tender, but the loofah pulp used by Ye Huangui was like dry grass.

Tan Zhenzhen fell into deep thought: "This is different from what I have seen before."

Ye Huangui explained: "Now the loofah is still young, when it grows old, the seeds inside will grow old, and the fibers inside the pulp will become rough."

Loofah pulp is a good thing, and Ye Huangui harvests a lot every autumn.Whether it is washing pots and washing dishes or making insoles, it is very practical.

Seeing Ye Huangui processing the ingredients for lunch today, Wen Ruyu suddenly felt something was wrong.Why did he feel that Tan Duzhi was using his spiritual sense to drive him away?

After confirming for a while, Wen Ruyu found out that the person surnamed Tan was indeed kicking out people.He could only stand up: "Little Yezi, you are busy first, I'll go back to catch up on sleep first, call me when the meal is ready."

Ye Huangui responded: "Okay. By the way, how many fish do you have for lunch?"

As he spoke, he uncovered the pumpkin leaves in the basket, and under the leaves, there were strips of yellowish crucian carp with full belly, fat and big.

Wen Ruyu glanced at it: "Oh, this fish is too fat, I'll order four first!"

After speaking, he floated away, leaving a quiet space for the two of them.

Seeing that Wen Ruyu had finally left, Tan Duzhi said, "Is there anything I can do to help?" His fingers have become more flexible recently, and he can handle many housework with ease.

Ye Huangui thought for a while: "Can you help me pick the pistil and the receptacle below the pumpkin?"

While talking, he was demonstrating.I saw him dexterously tore a circle along the connection between the receptacle and the petals, and the green receptacle and the long stamens inside were peeled off from the petals.A circular hole appeared at the bottom of the petal, which looked like a small yellow dress, and this was the petal he needed.

Tan Duzhi understood how to deal with it after reading it once. He nodded and picked up the pumpkin flowers and started to deal with them one by one.Ye Huangui picked up a few crucian carp and killed them by the pool.

The rain outside the house was pattering, and the two people handling the ingredients in the kitchen did not speak a word but were extremely harmonious.At the door of the stove, Lucky and Treasure dozed off, and Yaya led its ducklings to run around the world in the heavy rain...

Everyone in Xiaoshan Col is extremely leisurely and comfortable. There is no intrigue or intrigue here, and some are leisurely and leisurely lying down and sleeping after eating.

Even if Tan Duzhi slowed down, he finished processing the pumpkin flowers in a short while.Seeing that Ye Huangui hadn't finished handling the crucian carp, he picked up the loofah and studied it for a while: "This... is it going to be peeled?"

Ye Huangui looked back: "Yes, the loofah needs to be peeled."

When Ye Huangui packed up the crucian carp and turned around, he discovered a miraculous thing: Old Tan helped him deal with the loofah skin!

I saw that the cyan loofah skin was placed next to the blue and white loofah pulp like a cylinder. There was only a hole near the top, but the loofah pulp didn't even leave a finger mark.

Ye Huangui was startled. He picked up the loofah pulp and studied it for a while before weakly asking Tan Duzhi: "Old Tan, what do you use to peel the skin?"

Ye Huangui had two special bamboo planes for peeling. He didn't expect Lao Tan to help him peel the skins. Both planes were placed on the window sill.Here comes the question, what did Tan Duzhi use to remove the skin?

Tan Duzhi smiled and said, "I used a little spiritual energy. Am I doing something wrong?"

Ye Huangui gave a thumbs up: "No, it's done perfectly!"

Rice is stewed in the big pot on the stove, and braised crucian carp is stewed in the small pot.The braised crucian carp cooked by Ye Huangui was salty and sweet, and the peppers at home had recently begun to ripen. He also picked two peppers and cut them into shreds and threw them into the pot.

Open the lid at this time, and you can see a large pot of evenly sized crucian carp soaked in the sauce. .

While the braised fish was gurgling in the pot, Ye Huangui took out the minced meat that he had prepared before.He took out the small stove and put more than half a pot of oil in the pot.

Seeing the frying pan reappeared, Tan Duzhi knew that Ye Huangui was going to make fried food.It's just that he was a little puzzled: "Isn't it stuffed with pumpkin flowers? Does it need to be fried in a frying pan?"

Ye Huangui explained while stuffing the pumpkin flower with meat: "Hey, the so-called stuffed meat means stuffing meat. It means stuffing the pumpkin flower with meat. It can be eaten steamed or fried. I personally think it tastes better when fried."

Tan Duzhi nodded: "That's it. Is there anything I can do for you?"

Ye Huan handed him a pair of chopsticks: "Wait a minute, help me pick up the vegetables."

The pumpkin flower without the receptacle is like a small open trumpet, and Ye Huangui stuffs a spoonful of meat filling into it, then gently squashes the flower and the meat inside.

Then he rolled the pumpkin blossoms into the crispy bowl, and when the chopsticks dipped into the oil pan and some tiny bubbles appeared, he threw the pumpkin blossoms into the pot.

The pumpkin flowers are stuffed with meat and need to be fried slowly over medium heat.As soon as the flowers are in the pot, the moisture on them makes the flowers make a small popping sound.Tan Duzhi looked at the pumpkin flowers in the pot, and he found that after the oil was added, the color of the pumpkin flowers became more vivid.

As the leaves return slowly, the pumpkin flowers are dropped into the pot one by one, and the pumpkin flowers thrown in first have been fried until they are golden in color.

Tan Duzhi recorded the appearance and state of each flower when it was put into the pot. His sharp eyesight is so sharp that he will never forget it once he has seen it.He remembered clearly which flower was put into the pot first and which one was put into the pot last.

When the flowers were fried until golden on both sides, and a strong smell of meat permeated the entire kitchen, Tan Duzhi picked up the first flower into the wok.

The golden flowers were neatly placed on the plate by him, Ye Huangui looked at it and confirmed one thing - Old Tan has obsessive-compulsive disorder!

Ye Huangui puts the fried things as he pleases, so sometimes it looks a little messy.

But Tan Duzhi is different, the pumpkin flower is held inward by his torus and the petals face outward, and the petals of the pumpkin flower are like little claws facing outward.

The crispy pulp on the petals is fried, and there will be a crisp sound when the chopsticks are touched lightly.The petals under the brittle pulp are fried through the high temperature, and the color of the petals becomes more and more golden. There is a layer of cyan lines on the petals near the receptacle, which now becomes a green decoration on the petals.

After frying, the original taste of pumpkin blossoms has been replaced by a rich meaty aroma.Ye Huangui took a deep breath: "Ah, it smells so good!"

Hearing this, Tan Duzhi picked up a flower on the plate, and he handed it to Ye Huangui: "This one was picked up first, and the temperature should have dropped."

Ye Huangui urged him: "Taste quickly to see if it tastes good."

Tan Duzhi smiled and said, "Let's eat together."

As he spoke, he firmly handed the pumpkin flower to Ye Huangui, who took a big bite of the pumpkin flower with his big mouth.There was a crisp click, and the pumpkin blossoms immediately lost a little by half.

Under the crispy batter, the taste of pumpkin flowers is not obvious, but it feels a little sticky when you eat it.The juicy meat filling under the pumpkin flower is the main character. Once you bite into it, the aroma of the meat filling explodes violently.

fragrant!With such a meat filling, it tastes great even when fried in pumpkin leaves.

Ye Huangui was very satisfied: "It's delicious! Taste it, Lao Tan!"

Tan Duzhi unhurriedly stuffed the pumpkin flower that Ye Hugui had bitten into his mouth, and after chewing, he affirmed, "It's delicious."

The two shared another pumpkin flower, and the braised fish in the pot was ripe at this time.The delicious smell of braised fish wafted out of the pot, and the fragrance was so delicious that it turned around.

Ye Huangui's fish is cooked per head, even if he can't finish it, Zhaocai Jinbao can help him solve it, so he doesn't have to worry about the braised fish not being sold.

More than a dozen braised fish filled three large plates, and the soup from the tails of the fish slowly dripped onto the table, congealing into a thick fish jelly in a short while.

Just make another loofah soup and you're ready for lunch!

After the pot was cleaned, Ye Huangui poured a small amount of hot oil into the pot, and then he sliced ​​a small piece of pork belly the size of his fist into thin slices.

The encounter between pork belly and oil is always full of enthusiasm. The pork belly in the hot oil becomes slightly curly, and when the color of the meat slices turns slightly yellow, the fat in the meat flows out.

At this time, put in the loofah that has been cut into hob pieces, stir fry for a while, and the pot immediately explodes.The screeching sound was endless, and the oily smoke burst out quickly.

After stir-frying for a while, the loofah pieces begin to soften and become more emerald green in color.Ye Huangui added a large bowl of boiling water into the pot and covered the pot.

Tan Duzhi was burning a fire in the stove, and the bright yellow light danced on his face.When he found Ye Huangui staring at him, he showed a smile: "What's wrong?"

Ye Huangui smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing."

He always felt like he was dreaming. A few months ago, he never dreamed that one day he would have an intersection with Tan Duzhi, who was famous in the cultivation world.Who would have thought that one day, he would be able to stay in his own home and quietly light a fire? !

Looking at Ye Huangui's smirking face, Tan Duzhi's smile deepened: "Would the fire be bigger or smaller?"

Ye Huangui came back to his senses, he leaned over to the stove and looked at it: "This size is fine!"

After cooking for a while, Ye Huangui lifted the lid of the pot, and threw the small river prawns he caught from the river into the soup.The slightly transparent river prawns immediately turned a beautiful red color after being put into the soup pot, and a unique fragrance of shrimp wafted out of the pot.

Wen Ruyu smelled the fragrance and floated in: "Ah~ Is it almost ready? I can smell the fragrance! Ah, what is this magical thing?"

While talking, he pinched a piece of pumpkin flower and gnawed it: "It's delicious! Oh, this is so delicious! Too bad Tan Duzhi, I think I can't do without Little Leaf."

Ye Huangui knocked three eggs into the bowl, and he was breaking up the egg flowers. After hearing what Wen Ruyu said, he smiled: "Hey, my home is here. If you get hungry in the future, you can eat it anytime." You can come to me. As long as you don't think that the dishes I cook are not to your liking, I'm still happy to cook."

Wen Ruyu's mouth was full of greasy food: "Little Yezi is really a good person!"

Tan Duzhi said to Ye Huangui with disdain: "Don't pay attention to him, people like him can make progress."

Ye Huangui lifted the lid of the pot, and he poured the egg flower in the bowl into the pot in circles.After the egg flower is put into the pot, it quickly clumps with the original ingredients in the pot. At this time, it cannot be shoveled, otherwise the clumping behavior of the egg flower will fail, and the color of the soup will be cloudy.

There was still some egg liquid left in the bowl, so Ye Huangui scooped up two spoonfuls of soup into the bowl.After shaking the bowl, he poured the soup back into the pot.

After the soup in the pot is boiled again, the last seasoning process is left.The seasoning of loofah and three delicacies soup is the simplest, as long as a taste of salt can bring out the deliciousness of the soup.

After a while, a large bowl of loofah three delicacies soup appeared on the table, and the green loofah pulp had softened, and the milky white seeds inlaid in the melon pulp could be clearly seen.

There are pieces of golden frangipani in the loofah, and there are red river prawns in the frangipani.Slices of pork belly are well hidden under the cover of many ingredients, but a layer of golden fat floating on the soup surface has already betrayed it.

Take a sip of the soup, the salty and fresh flavor has the fragrance and sweetness of loofah, and the meaty fragrance is mixed with the umami taste of river prawns.After drinking the hot soup, the sweltering heat and irritability of the rainy season were miraculously suppressed.

There was another dish in Ye Huangui's pot, he steamed a bowl of custard.The scallion on the custard has been steamed into yellow. He and Tan Duzhi like to eat this kind of custard the most. Every time Lao Tan puts the rice into the custard bowl and stirs it, the soup will not be wasted.

Looking at the three dishes and one soup on the table, although there are not many types, the portion of each dish is very considerable.

Wen Ruyu lamented while eating the rice: "What are the days of the gods? These are the days of the gods!"

Tan Duzhi picked up a pumpkin flower for Ye Huangui, and he said calmly, "If you are envious, you can also find a Taoist companion like Xiaoye."

Wen Ruyu grinned and showed a smirk: "Hey, why don't I use the ready-made one? What a bother to look for it."

Ye Huangui was in a daze, he was chewing pumpkin stuffed meat while squinting at the oil pan on the small stove.

Tan Duzhi asked softly: "What's the matter? What are you thinking?"

Ye Huangui swallowed the food in his mouth, and he showed a clever smile: "Old Tan, do you want some snacks?"

Tan Duzhi smiled and said, "What snack do you want?"

He has seen candied fruit and dried meat pancakes before.

Ye Huangui chuckled: "I haven't eaten potato chips for a long time, anyway, I have nothing to do in the afternoon, let's eat potato chips!"

The potatoes in his family have not been eaten since they were harvested. There are three people in the family, so let's make some snacks!

Tan Duzhi nodded: "Okay."

After lunch, Tan Duzhi took Wen Ruyu to talk for a while.Ye Huangui was packing up the dishes, and after he finished packing, he found that Wen Ruyu had disappeared.

He thought Wen Ruyu had gone back to sleep, but he didn't expect Wen Ruyu to do anything.

Tan Duzhi opened the storage bag, and he asked Ye Huangui: "How many potatoes do you need? Big or small?"

Ye Huangui thought for a while: "First... let's make a half basket! Size doesn't matter."

Before the rainy season, Ye Huan's potatoes were ripe.He harvested three baskets of potatoes the size of two fists alone, not to mention those that were the size of eggs.

Fresh potatoes are easy to peel. With Tan Duzhi's help, the potatoes quickly peeled off their skins.

There is an important process for making potato chips, which is slicing. Potato chips must be cut very thin, and they must be translucent.Although Ye Huangui was good with a knife, he was still a bit reluctant to cut half a basket of potatoes.

But he had a clever trick. He handed the plane on the window sill to Tan Duzhi: "The potatoes planed out with this plane are thin and even."

As he spoke, he made a demonstration, and saw that he picked up a plane and planed on the potatoes, and a thin piece of potato fell into the wooden basin he had prepared a long time ago.There is half a basin of clear water in the wooden basin, and the potato chips don't change color even if they fall into it.

Tan Duzhi took a look at the plane: "This thing is so delicate!" Besides peeling, it has such a wonderful function!

Half a basket of potatoes looks like a lot, but in fact, two people did it, and it took less than half an hour to plan them.

Ye Huangui washed the planed potato slices three times and put them aside to filter the water. He boiled half a pot of water in a large pot and put two spoonfuls of salt in it.

After the water boiled, he divided the potato chips into two pots and cooked them.Mainly cook until the potato slices are slightly transparent, then they can be taken out and rinsed with cold water.

After the potato slices that have passed the cold water are drained, they can be put into the oil pan!

Ye Huangui held the strainer with one hand on his waist and the other, and he gently pushed the squeaky potato chips with the strainer.When the potato chips were put into the pot, they were still transparent and cute. As the water was dried, bubbles appeared on their bodies, and their bodies became fluffy and swollen.

Potato chips are fried when they are golden brown on both sides and they rustle when pushed with the strainer.

Half a basket of potatoes can fry at least a basket of potato chips.The potato chips just out of the pan are burnt and crispy, sprinkled with fine salt or chili pepper noodles, the taste is simply amazing.

Ye Huangui and Tan Duzhi sat at the table and tasted the crispy potato chips. They were content to pick and choose: "This one is so big!" "This one is so round!"

Sure enough, good things are only beautiful when someone shares their taste!The potato chips he fried in the past were not as delicious as today's potato chips!

Tan Duzhi picked up the roundest potato chip and handed it to Ye Huangui's lips: "Eat this."

The more I get along with Ye Huangui, the more I feel that he is a rare treasure.

Just at this moment, Wen Ruyu appeared staggeringly: "Hey? How did you guys get it?"

Ye Huangui asked suspiciously: "Where have you been, the potato chips are ready."

Wen Ruyu casually took out a storage bag from his sleeve and threw it to Tan Duzhi. He went to the dining table and squeezed a piece of potato chips and took a bite: "Oh, it's so delicious, right?!"

Ye Huangui was helpless: "Old Wen, can you not be so naive?"

Wen Ruyu refused to accept: "What's wrong with me? I made a trip for you two, why not eat a plate of snacks?!"

Ye Huangui asked suspiciously: "Hey? What do you mean?"

Wen Ruyu glanced at Tan Duzhi: "Ask Tan Duzhi."

Ye Huangui looked at Tan Duzhi again, Lao Tan picked out the fried potato chips and put them on Ye Huangui's side, he said slowly: "I'll tell you later, eat these first, they are the most complete fried. "
