Chapter 549 Occasionally eat multi-grain and wild vegetable steamed buns, don’t mention it, it tastes really good! [Please subscribe]
"Dundun is so awesome!"
Shen Guofu ran to the river and held the light blue stone, which was about the size of a basketball. It felt warm and moist like a piece of jade.
It’s not unusual to find jade in mountainous rivers.
In many places, there are professional jade diggers who specialize in making a living in such rocky rivers.
But such a large jade stone is very rare, with a pure texture, a warm feel, and no impurities on the surface. If it were to be sold, it would probably be worth a lot of money.
After all, this kind of large piece of jade material can be carved into relatively complex large pieces of jade, which can be sold at a higher price than bracelets and jade pendants.
Shen Jiayue said with a smile:
"I pulled this out of Dundun. No matter how expensive it is, I won't sell it. I plan to ask someone to carve this piece of jade into the shape of Dundun. Honey, what do you think of Mommy's proposal?"
Dundun was wandering in the river by himself, not interested in what he said.
However, Shen Guofu thought it was good to carve it into a dungeon.
He thought for a while and said:
"Then after I return to Beijing this time, I will find a master sculptor and ask him to carve it in the shape of a dungeon... Not to mention, this piece of jade is really suitable for carving into a dungeon shape."
The entire jade material is larger at one end and smaller at the other, which is more suitable for carving into the shape of a cat squatting.
This is also Dundun's signature move. Shen Guofu even wanted to put it on his desk, but thinking that his daughter would definitely not agree, he had to give up.
On the gentle slope not far away, Lin Xu dug another basket of wild vegetables.
The types of these wild vegetables are a bit complicated, so you have to separate them later, especially the wild leeks and wild onions. Pick them out and scramble them with eggs. They are so delicious that you can swallow them on your tongue.
When Lin Xu went home during the Qingming Festival last year, she ate dumplings made by her mother with wild leeks. They were called fresh.
Chen Meijuan also found wild onions and said to everyone:
"Dig out the roots of wild onions. The roots are also delicious. Don't leave the roots of leeks. Keep them and they will grow again next time."
She has already made plans to dig out the roots of wild leeks in the river valley when spring warms up and transplant them into the small vegetable garden outside the farm restaurant.
This will make it much easier to eat later.
While he was busy, his second uncle Chen Meiliang came from the valley in front, carrying a basket full of oval leaves in his hand.
He smiled and said:
"There is a wild pepper tree in front of us, and the leaves have already grown. I just picked the leaves, chopped them up, mixed them with eggs and fried them. It will taste super good."
This valley is really surprising, allowing everyone to have endless wild vegetables a month in advance.
After the woven bags we brought are all filled, we are ready to go back.
Shen Guofu didn't know much about wild vegetables, so he volunteered to pick up the stone that Dundun was looking for. Shen Jiayue held Dundun in her arms, while the others picked up tools and those who carried the wild vegetables.
When you come here, walk all the way down, either down the steps or down the gentle slope.
So everyone unknowingly walked five or six kilometers along the valley, but when we went back, it was not easy.
It's a long uphill road, making it tiring and uncomfortable.
And the further we walked, the lower the temperature became. I didn’t dare to take off my coat when it got hot, I could only sweat silently.
Chen Shaokang and his group of soy sauce cousins, when they were digging wild vegetables, they picked a wild flower and picked up two stones. Now they threw away all the stones and wild flowers. They even had to pull the railing with their hands when they went up the steps. .
Lin Xu, on the other hand, was still walking at the front of the team, carrying a bag full of wild vegetables, and at the same time carrying his and Shen Jiayue's baskets and shovels.
If you are in good health, you can really do whatever you want.
"Dundun, let's go back and lose weight, okay? It feels like your body is getting heavier... I'm really curious about how those people who raise blue cats weigh 20 pounds usually hold their cats."
Among blue cats, Dundun, who weighs thirteen pounds, is not too fat and has a relatively well-proportioned body. However, some big blue cats on the Internet weigh twenty pounds, which is an exaggeration.
When everyone finally came out of the valley, there were beads of sweat hanging on everyone's forehead.
Put all the wild vegetables and tools in the trunk, and everyone drives back.
These wild vegetables dug out from the ground cannot be eaten directly. They must be selected cleanly, and choosing vegetables is also a relatively complicated matter.
Everyone, take a break, drink water if you want, and eat snacks if you want.
After resting for a while, I poured the wild vegetables out of the woven bag and began to select vegetables. When selecting, I also classified the wild vegetables.
"Xubao, what are you eating today?"
Shen Jiayue felt that the pig head she ate for lunch had been completely digested, and even the fat accumulated in the past two days had been burned. Walking several kilometers on a mountain road with steps and gentle slopes was really tiring.
Lin Xu said:
"Steam multi-grain wowo and wild vegetable wowo, heat up the leftovers from lunch, make chicken noodle soup, and have a simple meal."
Shen Guofu, who was busy filling the large basin with water and washing wild vegetables, thought of the half pig head left at noon and other dishes, and felt that the simple meal his son-in-law said was not simple at all.
But this is just right.
I didn’t enjoy the pig’s head at lunch, so I’ll try it again in the evening, it’s a double pleasure!
As for the chicken noodle soup, that's fine. I haven't had it for a long time. My son-in-law is so good at cooking, and it's a hearty meal with both meat and vegetables.
After Dundun got off the car, she first went to her own automatic insulated water basin and drank a lot of water while squatting.
Then he jumped to the table in the yard, looked at the stone carefully for a while, then raised his tail, went to the cage next to the pig pen, and started bullying the duck inside.
Shen Jiayue said:
"Dundun is like a small village chief. He will scold small animals when he sees them in the yard."
Chen Yuanyuan grabbed a handful of wild onions and asked while selecting them quickly:
"I see that many people on the Internet are urging Dundun to start a live broadcast. Why don't you let Dundun broadcast it?"
"We don't like Dundun to live under the camera, and we don't like to force it to do anything. One day it will ask for it if it wants to live broadcast."
Since the first live broadcast, Dundun has only broadcast live three or four times.
Although every live broadcast, advertisers kept calling, hoping to get Dundun to help bring goods or advertise, but Shen Jiayue did not agree.
Lin Xu said:
"President Hou contacted me years ago and asked Dundun to place a Maisari car model next to her during her live broadcast. I didn't agree at the time, but since they have increased the money this time, I asked Sister Yan to talk to them about it.
Implanted contract."
Although you are not allowed to accept any advertisements, if you endorse yourself, the promotion must be promoted.
Shen Jiayue had a good sense of Maisharui and said with a smile:
"Yes, the brand Mesarui will at least not ruin the reputation of our family... Yesterday I checked on the official website of Mesarui. Not only do they sell expensive cars, but the car peripherals are also super expensive. A child seat
The chair can actually be sold for six figures, you really know how to cut the leeks of the rich."
In my impression, a child seat only costs a few hundred yuan. Even if it is more expensive, it costs up to a thousand yuan.
Mesarui sold for hundreds of thousands when it first launched. Even Lin Xu was curious about who the target customers of these seats were.
Shen Guofu smiled and said:
"This kind of positioning is generally not for selling, but to highlight the brand value. It uses accessories, jewelry, tools and other ancillary items to increase customer recognition and increase brand cohesion, which can be regarded as maintaining a strong style."
High-end brands often have similar operations.
For example, in the past few years, those high-end mooncakes often cost tens of thousands per box.
Even though we know that the sales volume is not high and no one even buys it, we still put it in a prominent position in the shopping mall. The purpose is to increase its style and attract the public's attention with gimmicks.
While everyone was choosing dishes, Lin Xu came to the kitchen, took out the multigrain noodles in the kitchen, and started kneading the noodles.
The so-called multi-grain noodles generally refer to sorghum flour, corn flour and bean flour. The steamed steamed buns made by mixing the three types of noodles are called multi-grain steamed buns.
In addition to these three types, millet noodles, pea noodles, mung bean noodles, black bean noodles and flour ground from various coarse grains can also be added to the multigrain nest.
Coarse grains is a general term, which generally refers to all whole grains except rice and noodles.
But in real life, the so-called coarse grains are actually not very coarse, because now it is advocated to cook coarse grains carefully.
Eating whole grains in a limited amount is good for your health, but if you really have to do it the same way you did during difficult times, that would not be healthy, it would be self-abuse.
Lin Xu soaked some corn grits in hot water.
Corn grits taste better than cornmeal, and the dietary fiber in corn also helps digestion.
In addition to corn grits, sorghum noodles and soybean noodles are all shelled and finely processed, and he even passes them through a sieve before using them.
Soak the corn grits until soft, add sorghum flour and soybean flour, add a little baking powder, a little salt, then some sugar, and knead into a dough with hot water.
Finally, put the basin in warm water and start to wash your hair.
Not long after, the wild vegetables outside had been packed away, and the eldest aunt's family and the second aunt's family were also preparing to drive back. They still had relatives to move around, and they agreed to come back on the sixth day of the lunar new year.
When she left, Chen Meijuan packed a lot of wild vegetables, and also took away a lot of the bacon from home and the soy sauce meat and soy sauce duck that Lin Xu brought from the capital.
There is a large pot of leftover wild vegetables.
Lin Xu planned to scramble the eggs with wild onions. There was a little bit of wild leek, so he just mixed them into the chicken soup noodles.
As for other wild vegetables, stir-fry some with dried chili peppers, steam some with dry powder, and make the rest into wild vegetable nests.
Wild vegetable nests are relatively simple. Just cut the wild vegetables and put them in a basin, add salt and grain flour, mix them into a dough, and then make individual nests.
When you eat it, whether you dip it in garlic paste or chili oil, it tastes great.
After eating big fish and meat for several days, it’s time to eat some fresh wild vegetables.
Lin Xu prepared the wild vegetables and put them into a steaming tray lined with silicone cage cloth. The multi-grain noodles were almost ready.
Put the dough on the chopping board, knead it, and then shape it into dough balls.
Then knead the balls separately, and press your thumb in while kneading to make a concave nest. This is the origin of the name of wowotou.
In fact, there is a similar dim sum in Beijing called Xiaowowo.
Chestnut noodles are used, and the steamed ones are sweet and silky. It is best to eat them with honey, which has a smoother texture and tastes more wonderful.
It is said to be Cixi's favorite, but the authenticity is unknown. After all, almost all the delicacies in the capital can be related to Qianlong and Cixi.
That means you can't speak, otherwise you may have to litigate with many people.
Both kinds of steamed buns are prepared and put into the steaming cabinet for steaming.
Taking advantage of this time, Lin Xu mixed some more noodles and prepared to make chicken soup noodles. When eating whole grains, drink some soup to moisturize the stomach and promote digestion.
Because she is going to the capital tomorrow, Chen Yuanyuan is going to pack her things now.
After breakfast tomorrow, I will go to the high-speed rail station and take the train, trying not to miss lunch at the store.
The second aunt also went to help. Although she was happy that her daughter had been promoted, she had to go to work on the third day of the new year, which made her feel inexplicably distressed as a mother.
Fortunately, Sister Yuanyuan is very ambitious:
"My brother gave me that stall. I can't be empty-handed and prepare nothing, right? The employees have to go to work on the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, and the store will resume work on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. I have to make plans in advance."
She has already thought about establishing a foothold in the capital in the past two years, waiting for Chen Shaokang to take the university entrance examination, and trying her best to apply for schools in the capital.
With family and relatives around like this, Chen Shaokang's college career will be much more comfortable.
"Xubao, when will you teach me how to make cut cakes?"
Shen Jiayue had nothing to do, so she took a kiwi fruit brought by her second aunt, peeled it, held it in her hand and ate it slowly.
I couldn't wait for dinner, so I had to eat some fruit first.
Lin Xu brought out the chicken soup he had made in the morning. He originally wanted to make it tomorrow, but thinking that when Sister Yuanyuan took the high-speed rail tomorrow, she could take two pieces with her to eat on the road, so she said:
"Let's do it tonight. I'll teach you how to make it tonight. It's very simple. In addition to the ingredients and sugar, the rest is the combination and placement of the various ingredients."
When Shen Jiayue heard this, she said with a smile:
"That's great, I can't help but want Yan Bao to see it."
Lin Xu smiled bitterly, are you planning to let her break off the sisterhood with you in advance?
The prepared dough is still relaxing at this time and cannot be rolled out.
He had nothing to do, so he prepared chili oil, garlic juice, watermelon bean paste and other dipping sauces to go with the steamed buns, as well as side dishes such as pickles and pickled peppers.
Then heat up the leftovers from the morning.
After the dough has rested, roll it out into a thin sheet, put it into the boiling chicken soup, season it, sprinkle with chopped wild leeks, and serve it out in a thermos.
At this time, the steamed buns have also been steamed.
Lin Xu opened the steaming cabinet, took out the steaming tray, and put the steamed cereals and wild vegetables into bamboo baskets. Today's dinner officially started.
The three old men liked Lin Xu's steamed steamed buns very much.
"In the past, the wowotou were very rough, but I didn't expect Xiaoxu's ones to be so exquisite."
"It tastes different too. It's sweet, with a salty aftertaste. It's not as harsh on the throat as it was in the past."
"Not only did it irritate my throat, but I also couldn't digest it after eating too much...Xiaoxu was stunned and made the wowotou into a snack."
In fact, the store originally had cereal steamed buns, which were really sold as snacks, so this snack was not difficult at all for Lin Xu.
Take a steamed bun and turn it over, put a little bit of chili oil or watermelon bean paste inside, take a bite of this delicious food, and feel your appetite instantly whet your appetite.
Shen Jiayue ate it happily. She thought it was more delicious than white flour steamed buns.
After eating the grain wowo, she followed Lin Xu's example, dipping a wild vegetable wowo in the chili oil and taking a bite. The freshness of the wild vegetables and the spiciness of the chili oil mixed together, making people feel like they were straight away.
The comfort of Tian Ling Gai.
It's like eating light food for a month and then suddenly sitting in a hot pot restaurant and eating the spicy butter hot pot that you've been craving for a long time. It's very enjoyable.
"This is delicious, I like eating wild vegetables Wowo...Xubao, what should we do if we can't eat wild vegetables when we go to the capital?"
Lin Xu smiled and said:
"Other vegetables can also be used to make steamed buns, such as celery leaves, spinach, chrysanthemum, etc., and many wild vegetables are now cultivated artificially, such as shepherd's purse, which are basically easy to buy."
With the improvement of living standards, many rural ingredients can also be purchased in cities.
As for seasonal ingredients such as Sophora japonica and Yuqian, you can basically see them in the vegetable market every season.
Shen Guofu took a small steamed bun. He did not put chili oil or watermelon bean paste in it, but put a piece of pig head meat in it.
Such a delicious bite, the pork inside is full of oil, and the grains outside are delicate and delicious.
The two flavors and textures blend together, which is simply a supreme enjoyment for meat lovers.
Chen Meijuan took a spoon and served chicken soup noodles for everyone. Then she picked up a bowl and tasted it. She was very surprised by Lin Xu's craftsmanship:
"Oh, this is more delicious than what I made."
Han Shuzhen smiled:
"It's better that you teach me well. In our family, my mother can't cook, and I don't know much about it either. As for Yueyue, let alone..."
She was just about to say that her kitchen novices were from the same origin, when Shen Jiayue said:
"Ahem, I would like to advise someone not to take me with them. I can cook so many delicious things now. I am going to learn how to make cut cakes tonight, but it doesn't mean I don't know how to cook."
Hey, you and grandma can brazenly say that you can’t cook.
But as Xu Bao’s wife, how could I not know how to cook?
Han Shuzhen glared at her daughter:
"Again, don't waste food."
"No, I'll make the cut cake tonight, and Sister Yuanyuan can take it on the road tomorrow to eat... If you want to eat it, I can reluctantly let you try it."
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuanyuan bumped shoulders with Shen Jiayue:
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
"You don't have to be so polite, Sister Yuanyuan."
Han Shuzhen glared at her daughter.
You stinky girl, you’re still like this in your husband’s family.
Who eats cakes in the middle of the night? It’s full of nuts and sugar, and it’s so high in calories. You’ll probably gain several pounds in one bite.
She ignored her daughter and continued to eat. By the way, she planned to go dig wild vegetables in the valley tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. This would not only exercise her body, but also taste ingredients that could not be eaten outside. It was the best of both worlds.
Lao Shen was not very interested in wild vegetables, but he wanted to go to the river and pull out the stones.
When he had nothing to do before, he always watched some videos of digging for jade. Now that he has this opportunity, he naturally wants to experience it. If he can dig up some rare jade, wouldn't it be quite memorable?
But you can’t say this, lest your wife will criticize you for not doing your job properly.
Soon, dinner was over. Chen Meijuan and her eldest aunt helped clear the table. Her second aunt took Chen Yuanyuan and explained the precautions on the way to the capital.
"Mom, don't worry. There aren't many people in the business class class I'm sitting in, and Sister Yan went to pick me up at the station, so I won't get lost."
The second aunt is not worried, she just can't bear to leave her daughter so soon.
In the kitchen, while Lin Xu was washing the dishes, Chen Meijuan whispered:
"If I don't tell your sister Yuanyuan and let her leave in two days, your second aunt will cry."
Lin Xu said:
"It was her own choice. Besides, Sister Jing is still in the capital. While they are not at work, they can plan for the future of Ziqiang Shengjian..."
It’s human nature to always feel uncomfortable after separation.
But for the sake of living, I can only suppress my emotions temporarily and pursue my career.
After the kitchen was tidied up, Shen Jiayue came to the kitchen with a whole box of various nuts and said with a smile:
"Xubao, I'm ready, shall we start now?"
Lin Xu wiped his hands, nodded and said:
"Okay!"
