While Xiao Nianzhi and the others were discussing, Uncle Fu happened to pass by.
Seeing the basket in their hands, Xiao Nianzhi asked curiously: "Uncle Fu, what is that?"
Uncle Fu originally wanted to stop and say hello, but now when he heard Xiao Nianzhi ask, he stopped and gestured: "I just went to pick up the duck eggs in the backyard."
Fresh duck eggs?
Hearing this ingredient, Xiao Nianzhi's mind suddenly moved, he stood up and moved over there: "Let me see, is there a lot of it?"
There are a lot of ducks in the backyard, and occasionally I kill the old ones to eat.
Of course, after a period of time, new ones will be added in time to avoid sitting on empty seats.
Because there are many ducks, there are duck eggs every day.
Xiao Nianzhi didn't pay much attention to it before, but now that he met it, he had some thoughts in his mind.
When Yan Xingxuan looked at it from the side, he knew that the little girl knew what she was thinking, and asked curiously: "Have you thought of anything?"
In response, Xiao Nianzhi nodded: "Let's fill the fresh duck eggs directly. It's a bit complicated, but the taste is very good."
Egg filling?
Yan Xingxuan has never heard of this way of eating.
Xiao Nianzhi can also understand this. After all, this is a southern snack, and it is normal that it is not popular in the north.
But it tastes really good. Fresh duck eggs are the best ingredient, so Xiao Nianzhi is ready to try it.
Although there are some challenges, it is not a big problem.
Seeing Yan Xingxuan's confused look, Xiao Nianzhi gave him a simple explanation: "It's just to put the prepared meat filling into the egg yolk, and then use it to make soup. It tastes very good."
To be honest, Yan Xingxuan didn’t quite understand.
And, fill the meat filling into the egg yolk?
Is this possible?
The question is, can the egg yolk hold up?
Although Yan Xingxuan was puzzled, he was more curious and wanted to see.
So, he nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Uncle Fu picked up more than twenty duck eggs.
Xiao Nianzhi told Uncle Fu and took the egg over temporarily.
Xiao Nianzhi was not sure if there was any minced meat in the canteen, so she had to go and ask first.
If not, then she will change her path and do something else.
When Xiao Nianzhi passed by, Aunt Fu and Aunt Cui were sitting there talking.
Seeing her coming, he smiled and said hello: "Why did Yuan Niang come so early today? Is there anything that needs to be prepared in advance?"
While the two were talking, they had already stood up and were about to come over to help. Xiao Nianzhi saw it and stopped him quickly: "Aunt, no, I just came to ask if there is any meat left today?"
There are more than twenty duck eggs, but not much meat filling is needed.
Hearing her question, the rich aunt quickly gestured: "Yes, yes, yes. Manager Qiu said it at that time. I specially reserved it. Can you see if it is enough?"
While talking, the rich aunt had opened the basket next to the bucket, revealing the fresh pork belly inside.
Xiao Nianzhi took a look and saw that there were almost two kilograms of meat, which was enough. He nodded hurriedly: "That's enough. I'll come back later to trouble Auntie."
"Oh, you kid."
"What are you talking about? Have you eaten tonight? Do you want some?"
……
The two aunts were concerned and asked a lot of questions. Xiao Nianzhi declined politely, soaked the dried mushrooms and dried sea vegetables, and then returned to the backyard.
In fact, after returning home, there was nothing to do.
Yan Xingxuan is still observing his appearance.
Seeing that Xiao Nianzhi was back, he hurriedly came over and said, "Think about it, how did you get this color?"
"What about this?"
"This is so beautifully pinched, it's really amazing when you think about it!"
……
Yan Xingxuan had a lot of questions. After getting the answer to each question, he was like a child who had eaten candy or a cat who had eaten dried fish, smiling cleanly and satisfied.
If the scene hadn't been inappropriate, he might have exposed his soft belly.
Xiao Nianzhi watched from the side, almost losing control of his hand several times and directly touching the other person's head.
Otherwise, it looks too good to touch!
The two of them just discussed at first, and then Xiao Nianzhi began to study the flour ratio directly, and he and Yan Xingxuan began to tinker with new noodle makers.
However, the flour needs to be worked silently, so even if you mix the batter now, you can't start making it directly.
In this way, it would be a lot less fun.
However, Yan Xingxuan felt that since he was not leaving anyway, it would be okay to meet again tomorrow.
Thinking of making clay figurines with Xiao Nianzhi, Yan Xingxuan felt his heart heat up. The color of the tips of his ears also changed from light to dark, and his eyes were uncontrollable, and he glanced at Xiao Nianzhi from time to time.
He thought his gaze was calm, shallow, and without much warmth.
In fact, only the person being looked at can clearly feel the heat and intensity hidden deep in his eyes.
Xiao Nianzhi felt that the tip of her ear on the side of her neck would be burned by Yan Xingxuan's gaze from time to time. This made her want to shrink her neck, but she was afraid that her strange movements would arouse the other person's curiosity.
So, she tried to control it.
By the time the batter ratio was ready, my neck was almost stiff.
Aunt Yu was too embarrassed to keep looking, so she turned over the Tao Te Ching in her hand.
But after turning over and over again, there is nothing interesting to see.
She wanted to ask Xiao Nianzhi if there was anything new that she could read, but she was afraid of disturbing the two of them, so in the end she simply endured and continued flipping through the book in her hand.
After entering early autumn, the days have become a lot shorter.
When the night got dark, Xiao Nianzhi tidied up briefly and took Yan Xingxuan and the others to the cafeteria.
After passing there, Xiao Nianzhi immediately became busy.
Yan Xingxuan rolled up his sleeves and generously went over to help.
Laishun...
Well, light a fire.
Laishun said: Now I am also a skilled fire maker!
Xiao Nianzhi prepared the meat filling first. In order to enhance the freshness, in addition to adding dried shrimps, some chopped shiitake mushrooms are also needed.
After soaking the dried mushrooms, wash them, chop them into pieces, and season them with the minced meat filling.
After the meat filling is mixed, the next step is the technical part of filling the eggs.
The so-called stuffing of eggs is to stuff the meat filling into the egg yolk to ensure that it is full and firm but the yolk is not broken, and then put it in water to cook.
After the cooked eggs are cut open, the outside is pure white mixed with slightly yellowish egg white, but the inside is firm and delicious meat filling.
From stuffing to boiling, to finally cutting it in half, and then putting it in the pot to cook the soup, every step requires special attention.
Because once the egg breaks, the filling will be a failure.
Yan Xingxuan had been curious before about how to do this egg-feeding.
Soon, he saw Xiao Nianzhi cracking the fresh duck eggs into a small tea cup, then gently opening a small opening in the egg yolk, using the chopsticks in both hands to start stuffing them inside.
Meat filling.
Yan Xingxuan:??!
Is this possible?
Looking at this scene, his eyes widened instantly. He could do other things with his hands before, but now he is doing nothing and just staring at this area.
Looking at Xiao Nianzhi's deft movements, Yan Xingxuan couldn't help but sigh: Is this... the egg yolk really unbreakable?
