Chapter 46 Lotus Leaf Rice [Please add to your collection and recommend]
Zhang Lan came back and saw his son playing with lotus leaves in the kitchen. He shook his head and smiled bitterly. This kid is so greedy. Li Feng was making steamed lotus leaf rice at the moment. It looked very simple. He just broke the lotus leaves into pieces and put them in the rice.
, the steamed rice has a faint fragrance of lotus leaves, is slightly green, and has a bit of bitterness.
People here are not as good as outside, and they come up with some tricks, the most simple ones. But today Li Feng changed his method. Li Feng folded the lotus leaves into packages, filled them with spring water, wrapped them with a piece of tender white meat, and put them in a pot.
For a different kind of lotus leaf rice, Li Feng slightly processed it here, separated the lotus leaves from the rice, and added the lotus leaves to the water in the pot.
Place a steamer on top of the pot, pave it with lotus flowers, spread the soaked rice evenly on top, put firewood on the stove, and start a fire. After more than ten minutes, a faint fragrance spreads out of the yard.
"What are you doing? It's delicious enough." Li Fukui came over to discuss Lin Ying's food problem. He originally thought that the girl's family would have no problem cooking, but when he asked, Lin Ying hesitated, her cheeks turned red, and she didn't speak for a long time.
Li Fukui saw it, and now he seemed to have to trouble Li Shan's family. Originally, it was okay to eat at home, but when the child went to high school and his wife went to take care of it, he was hungry and full every day. Let a girl's family
It was not appropriate to eat in the past, so I didn’t ask Li Shan to discuss this.
"Uncle, you're here, come in and sit down quickly, hehe, Xiaobao is making trouble, let's eat here at noon, there is wine at home." Zhang Lan is breaking beans at the moment, and there are too many beans on the shelf.
We sold a lot this week, but who knew it would be time to pick them again in a few days.
"There's a fire burning at home, and where is the second child? He's not at home?" Li Fukui didn't know how to speak, because of this.
"What's the matter? I'm tending the vegetable patch in the backyard." Zhang Lan saw that someone had business coming over and didn't delay. When Li Fukui heard that he was in the backyard, he didn't have time to drink tea and didn't even pay much attention to Li Feng's greetings.
"What's wrong?" Looking at his uncle's anxious look, wondering what had happened, Li Feng patted the cigarette ashes and grass foam on his body.
"If you have anything to do with your dad, it's none of your business." Zhang Lan had already broken off half of the bamboo dustpan and beans, and told Li Feng to go over and call some old people to eat. The vegetables came out in a few minutes, and the meat and vegetables were stewed early. It's hot here.
It's ready to eat when hot.
Here in Taolin, several old people were teasing the little rabbits. The little guys quickly adapted to the environment and climbed out of the cage from time to time. The fur ball, this guy learned to lure the little rabbits with tender grass, watched them come out, and fiddled with them.
Suddenly, the little rabbit was so frightened that he cooed, pointing and jumping excitedly.
As for the fat boy, he sniffed it with disdain and swaggered after the little sika deer, causing others to kick hard. Then he ran to the flower shed to catch butterflies and chase away bees.
"Woof woof." Fatty saw Li Feng coming, and Pi Pian ran over, wagging his little tail desperately, lowering his body slightly, and looked up at Li Feng, almost in a flattering manner.
"Xiaobao is here, come and see what's going on here?" Mr. Wang squatted by the pool, a little confused as to what happened today.
Li Feng saw that the fish had floated up. He looked up at the sky. The sun that had appeared in the morning was already hiding in the clouds. The air was a little dull and it looked like it was going to rain. However, he didn't see any eels showing up in the ditch.
, what’s going on in the pool, so many crucian carp and carp surfaced.
"Maybe it's because the weather is dull and it's going to rain." Li Feng thought it might be the case, but he wasn't sure. The fish floating on the surface was mainly due to lack of oxygen. Could it be that there was less oxygen in the water and there wasn't enough for the fish to share.
Li Feng opened the lotus leaves and took a look. There were densely packed green and black crucian carp floating on their heads together. Something was wrong. Li Feng hurriedly looked around the pool. Indeed, there were dense groups of crucian carp floating on their heads together.
"This is due to lack of oxygen or parasites. Catch a few and have a look." Lin Ying heard the movement outside, stretched her head to take a look, and said lightly, with a trace of surprise in her eyes. She didn't expect there to be so many crucian carp in ordinary ponds.
It looks like a few of them are already on the market.
"Oh, parasite." Li Feng was shocked. He didn't think more about it. It was wrong. It was impossible. Especially, spring water was added every day. By the way, yesterday, Li Feng slapped his head. He didn't add spring water yesterday. Could it be for this reason? Maybe it was because of the weather.
Yin. Li Feng fished out a few fish with a net bag, opened the gills, and looked at them. They were fine. Could it be that the nitrite at the bottom of the pond was high? Li Feng dug out the mud and took a look, and found that they were fine.
"It seems that there is a lack of oxygen. The fish here are too dense. I really don't know how the fish grew so big. It's strange." Lin Ying walked around the pond, quite confused. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be, but the facts
in front of you.
"This... this may be because the water quality is good and there are many plankton. Let's not talk about it. Eat, eat." Li Feng secretly wiped his sweat. He couldn't explain this clearly. I really didn't realize that this stubborn girl had some knowledge.
"It's time to eat. Don't look at your little rabbit anymore. It can't run away." When Lao Wang heard that he was eating, he dropped the fishing rod in his hand and clapped his hands. Today there is lotus leaf rice. He hasn't had this bite in many years.
.
"Uncle Cheng, you go first. I'll lock the door." Li Feng asked a few people to leave first. He turned around and saw Lin Ying standing aside. "Why, why don't you go over and eat? Go quickly, I have to lock the door." Li Feng
Looking at this girl, she felt a little anxious.
"Then I'm going, you asked me to, but I don't have any money to give you." Lin Ying was a little embarrassed, with a faint blush on her face. "No money, just a meal, let's go, really, mother-in-law."
"You, hum." After glaring at Li Feng, Lin Ying picked up the struggling fur ball and ran out of Taoyuan. The fat boy was in a dilemma, looking at Li Feng and then looking at the people who were walking away.
This guy knew very well who to follow. He was not here to eat. "Go ahead, I really can't do anything to you." Even though the body was getting taller and taller, the fat boy was still invincible even though he pretended to be cute. His watery eyes looked straight at him.
Looking at you, his eyes are affectionate as if two people have reunited after a long separation. Li Feng smiled and shook his head.
Watching everyone leave, Li Feng quickly entered the house, got into the space, took out a bucket of spring water, and poured it into the pond. After waiting for three or four minutes, the crucian carp group slowly dispersed, with only a few scattered ones swimming four to five centimeters below the water surface.
Seeing that the pond had returned to calm, Li Feng breathed a sigh of relief. Things were a little difficult since he was no longer living here, so he simply poured a few more buckets of water. When no one was around, Li Feng picked up five or six buckets of spring water and poured it into the pond.
The lotus leaf rice at noon was applauded by everyone. It had a faint fragrance of lotus, accompanied by the fresh taste of lotus leaves. It did not have the bitter taste of traditional lotus leaf rice. The refreshing taste was paired with appetizers. Only the tops of the cold lettuce were used.
Peel and shred four to five centimeters, add cucumber shreds and kelp strips, add no more than boiling water, it will be crisp, refreshing and with a touch of sweetness.
A few small stir-fries were made. The shredded eggplant was only about ten centimeters young and very delicate. The green pepper was slightly spicy and sweet. Lin Ying couldn't stop eating and praised Zhang Lan for her skill.
Shan told her, and he breathed a sigh of relief. Just eat as much as you like. It's just a pair of chopsticks for more people. It's not easy for a girl to go out alone. Li Shan looked at it and nodded. At least she's not picky.
In fact, they had forgotten that the food produced in their own vegetable garden was delicious, and people in the city bought a lot of it last weekend.
"Try the soup, crucian carp and tofu soup, haha, Xiaobao said to add some vinegar to enhance the taste, you guys try it." Crucian carp is the most convenient. A few old people cook it for half an hour by the pond every afternoon, and they can eat as much fish in a day.
.
"Yes, the soup is as smooth as jade. The tofu is our own, no gypsum powder is added, the taste is delicate and soft, the soup is fresh and the meat is delicious." Lao Wang scooped up half a bowl and after tasting it, he praised it.
Lin Ying was a little doubtful and took a bite. "Is this wild fish? It's so delicious." Not to mention that the meat was slightly chewy and slightly sweet, but it was not a wild fish. It cannot be artificially raised to produce such a taste. Besides,
Li Feng drank a tank of spring water today, and it tasted absolutely delicious.
"Hahaha, this girl, we people in the mountains have never bought fish to eat. They are not caught in the water. Haha, if you like it, my aunt will make it for you every day." Zhang Lan and the others were amused, and Lin Yingpo made a fuss.
Sorry.
"Haha, isn't this the fish you saw at noon? It's a fish in the pond. If you want to eat it, pull the net bag a few times and I'm sure it will be enough for you to eat for a few days." Lao Cheng looked at the girl and looked a little embarrassed, so he quickly changed the subject.
"Impossible, Li Feng didn't raise the pond, how could it taste so good?" Lin Ying didn't believe that the person opposite had this skill. She looked like she didn't even know whether the fish was suffering from hypoxia or disease.
"Who said he raised them? Pond fish are originally wild. They feed on aquatic plants and plankton." I haven't seen Li Feng feed him once these days, but he has fed the eels in the ditch a few times, but a few old people have.
I hadn't seen the eel for a few days, so I instinctively thought that Li Feng was just sitting around and messing around.
After lunch, Li Feng carried a bamboo basket on his back and walked along the mountain path toward the bamboo forest. He made meat porridge in the evening and planned to dig some tender bamboo shoots. He hadn’t eaten for several days and was thinking about bamboo shoots.
To eat them tender, dig some before it rains. After it rains, the bamboo shoots grow too fast. Most of the bamboo shoots have grown to be as tall as a person. It is normal for these things to grow dozens of centimeters in one night. People in the mountains often say that ghosts make noises in the bamboo forest at night.
It's not that bamboo grows fast and the sound can be heard, but it hasn't rained heavily recently, so it doesn't grow too fast. Li Feng took out his shovel and looked for bulging bamboo leaves. How many years have these bamboo leaves accumulated?
It was more than ten centimeters thick. What Li Feng was looking for was the bamboo shoots without the heads showing up. They were tender and could be eaten after being soaked in water.
I was lucky today. It didn't take long. I dug three or four. I weighed it and found it was enough for two meals. Li Feng patted the grass leaves stuck to his body. He walked around the bamboo forest and was a little disappointed. He didn't see anything. Maybe it was rain.
For some reason, we can only use dry ones instead, as there were still some some time ago.

I finally settled the contract, and I breathed a sigh of relief. I spent most of the day writing the outline, and I felt depressed. It was difficult to write, so I’m sorry. I’m so late today, so I’ll try to do it early tomorrow.
