Chapter 18 18 Delicious and inexpensive orchid beans
The old lady smiled and said: "Earn your money well, she and I don't have to worry about it." She thought that the old sisters could earn more than ten yuan in a day. If she wasn't afraid of holding back Dingbang, she would have gone out to show off.
Spread out.
"Got it!" Lin Lan smiled and brought a chair for the old lady to sit on, turned around and went to the stove, opened the cupboard and took the mortar socket out of the cupboard.
Seeing that everything was clean in front of and behind the stove, the old lady smiled and nodded, holding Little Douzi and sitting there watching her work.
Lin Lan poured some sugar into the mortar and pounded it into powdered sugar for later use. Then he went into the house and took out a pair of scissors. He cut the beans from the buds after soaking them in a wooden basin until they were completely swollen. Xiaodouzi also took a pair of scissors.
Hu Dou helps.
The old lady saw that Lin Lan was a little clumsy at first, but then became faster and began to believe that she could really make orchid beans.
Lin Lan poured the cut beans into the filtered water, poured half a can of rapeseed oil into the pot, and added the cold beans to the pot.
The old lady sat in front of the stove and helped light the fire.
When Xiaodouzi saw Lin Lan pouring so much oil, he pouted and shouted: "Mom is disobedient."
"Mom, be obedient and add less when cooking." Lin Lan said with a smile.
The third uncle smiled and pulled him: "Mom is useful. When mom makes money, grandma will help mom buy it back."
The old lady nodded happily: "Okay, okay!" What she was most proud of was that she had a grandson who could live up to his expectations.
Seeing Lin Lan's smiling face, the woman decided to try it. She reached out and pinched a piece, put it in her mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it. It was indeed crispy and crispy.
Xiaodouzi looked at her: "Grandma, mother said not to tell others."
Lin Lan took the spatula and kept pushing the beans in the pot. The blisters in the pot gradually disappeared. She said to the old lady: "Third uncle's milk, just use medium heat."
"Yeah! Not bad, how did you sell it?"
Xiaodouzi added: "Grandma, I am Xiao Jianghu!"
The old lady smiled and said: "At that time, we didn't do small business. I made snacks and sold them, and your parents-in-law grinded tofu and sold them. Your father-in-law went to the countryside to collect beans, so he helped me collect wheat, and your mother-in-law helped me grind flour...
…”
"This bag is sewn well. Using urea bags to store roasted seeds and nuts is not easy to get wet." The old lady whispered, "Remember, when you go to the eucalyptus forest, first check to see if the meat seller Lao Li is there. If Lao Li is not there, it's his son.
Here, as long as the meat seller is here, you will start selling, and if he is not, you will come back."
"Hey! You are Xiao Jianghu!" Both of them laughed.
Lin Lan saw what he meant, smiled and took out a bag from the bag and handed it to him: "Don't worry, comrade, I have selected every bean. The water for soaking the bean is well water, and the oil is also at home this year."
Just whipped rapeseed oil.”
She whispered to the people passing by with side dishes: "Try the crispy orchid beans for free, they are delicious and not expensive..."
"I know." Lin Lan responded gratefully, picked up the bag and looked at the two of them, "Uncle Nai, Xiaodouzi, I'm going."
Lin Lan put the orchid beans into the bag she had sewn last night, and tightened the mouth of the bag.
Lin Lan smiled and said: "Sister, try it. If it doesn't suit your taste, it's okay if you don't buy it."
Lin Lan nodded, took a look around, and walked towards the eucalyptus forest with the bag in hand. When she arrived at the eucalyptus forest, she walked in and saw the handsome man selling meat still squatting there. She found a place not far away from him to put the bag away.
Carry it on your chest.
"Okay!" Lin Lan brought a rice spoon and planned to put orchid beans in it.
Little Douzi Gacha Gacha bit it and nodded repeatedly: "Mom, the beans are delicious!"
Pour the beans back into the pot and fry them for about 30 seconds to keep them crispy and not easy to get wet.
Lin Lan tasted it and felt that her craftsmanship had not deteriorated. She proudly brought it to the two of them: "Third uncle's milk, little beans, come and try it." She said and fed one in their mouths.
Lin Lan looked at her with admiration: "No wonder you know everything."
The old lady chewed it slowly and nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, it's crispy and crispy, even I can bite it, and the taste is right. I quickly put it in a brown paper bag and walked to those people who had finished get off work."
The old lady recalled the old days of the two families, and Lin Lan agreed with a smile.
A middle-aged woman stopped and looked curiously at the orchid beans in the paper bag.
The oil-pressed food at this time had neither waste oil nor additives.
Xiaodouzi also waved: "Mom, come back soon."
She nodded, weighed it in her hand and turned away.
She took another one and put it in her mouth: "It's a bit expensive!"
Xiaodouzi puffed up her chest and said, "I want to be a policeman with Uncle Yao and catch bad guys!"
She took out the fried orchid beans and drained the vegetable oil, then added an appropriate amount of salt, powdered sugar, chili powder, pepper powder, pepper while they were hot, and fried the crispy orchid beans.
Lin Lan smiled and said: "It's not expensive. Think about it, a pound of black market rapeseed oil costs more than a pound. Orchid beans are completely fried in rapeseed, and there are several seasonings in it. There are three taels in a bag."
It’s heavy, please consider it’s not expensive!”
Lin Lan saw someone coming over and opened the paper bag of orchid beans for tasting, and a salty fragrance came out.
Lin Lan smiled and handed the rice spoon to her: "Well! You are old enough to be in the world."
The woman did the math and thought it was true, so she handed her two dimes: "Give me a bag."
Lin Lan was all smiles: "Two dimes a bag!"
The old lady smiled and said, "I know, fried twists, fried peas, and fried melon seeds, I've done them all before."
The old lady said happily: "Now that you are old enough, of course you are old enough to be in the world!"
Then a polite and respectable middle-aged man came. He glanced at the orchid beans in the bag, and then at Lin Lan's hand holding the bag. He saw that her fingernails were clean. Then he pointed at the orchid beans: "
Bring me a bag."
The old lady waved her hand: "Go ahead! It's a great business. Don't delay and come back as soon as it's sold out."
"I bought your stuff because it was clean." The man said calmly.
Lin Lan left a bowl aside for the two of them to eat, and he and the old lady filled bags and sealed them, making twenty-three bags. The old lady poured some more out of the bowl and asked her to taste it for the customers.
Lin Lan smiled and took out a bag from the bag and handed it to her: "It's delicious! Come again!"
The old lady reached out and took it: "I'll do it, I'll pretend to be more accurate."
Slowly, the beans in the pot exploded into big bubbles. Lin Lan asked the old lady to light up the fire and kept shoveling the beans with a spatula until the shells of the beans were light brown and made a crisp crackling sound. Then she used a slotted spoon.
Take it out and bring the oil in the pot to a boil.
The old lady happily touched his face and said, "Yeah! He's a smart boy and has a good memory. He will definitely study well in the future."
Everything in this era was made from real materials. The beans were not treated with pesticides but were only made from farmyard manure. The rapeseed was dried from the family's own land, then sifted clean and taken to a small mill for pressing. Authentic small grinding and fragrant pressing.
Lin Lan took the money: "Don't worry, the things I make are guaranteed to be clean and hygienic."
After selling two bags in a row, Lin Lan's confidence skyrocketed. As long as someone looked at it, she would invite people to taste it with a smile. Anyone who had tasted the taste of orchid beans would buy it.
It took more than half an hour to sell out more than 20 bags of orchid beans.
Lin Lan did the math and found that he sold a total of four yuan and sixty cents. After excluding the cost, he could earn at least two yuan. If he could sell this much every day, he would earn dozens of yuan in a month, which is higher than his salary at work.
