Xiao Nianzhi was so comforted by Yan Changxia that she couldn't laugh or cry. Finally, she shook her head helplessly: "It's okay. If you try a few more times, maybe it will be alright. Let's talk about this later."
Xiao Nianzhi wants to draw out the drawings for Manager Qiu today, and some snacks will need some specific molds.
Although it is okay to have a pot, it takes too much effort, so it is not as easy as using a ready-made mold.
If the quantity is large, molds are better to use.
However, you can do these things in the afternoon, because it’s lunch time.
They went to the cafeteria to eat at noon, deliberately avoiding the peak period for students.
After dinner, Xiao Nianzhi came back.
I don’t know if it was bad luck, but on the way back, I bumped into Lu Jingyuan and three others who had just come down the mountain.
Xiao Nianzhi:......!
The more I look at the knives in the delicious kitchen, the more pleasing they become.
However, Xiao Nianzhi didn't look at the other party either because she didn't want to, and because Yan Changxia was talking to her.
Lu Jingyuan did not deliberately look at Xiao Nianzhi, but when the two sides passed each other, when he bowed to King Wei and others, he glanced at Xiao Nianzhi out of the corner of his eye.
At this time, Xiao Nianzhi happened to be amused by Yan Changxia, with a light smile in his moist litchi eyes, looking lively and charming.
Lu Jingyuan quickly looked away, but his breathing was erratic for two beats.
It's a pity that no one cares or pays attention.
Everyone went back for a lunch break. Xiao Nianzhi woke up late and was not sleepy, so he simply found paper and pen and started drawing.
Those who make egg burgers, those who make small meatballs, those who make egg pancakes, and those who make pans...
There were all kinds of paintings. After Xiao Nianzhi finished painting them, he sent them to Manager Qiu.
It was too hot in the afternoon and King Wei didn't go out. Yan Changxia stayed at Xiao Nianzhi's side and read the storybook.
It's the three books Xiao Zhou gave me before. However, it's hot and Yan Changxia can't sit still very well. It's like there's an egg sitting under her butt. She's shaking back and forth, and from time to time she looks into Xiao Nianzhi's hands.
storybook.
Receiving the other party's gaze, Xiao Nianzhi raised his head and looked at her with a smile: "Would you like to watch it instead?"
Yan Changxia usually doesn't read storybooks very much, and she doesn't like anything with a lot of words.
When she heard Xiao Nianzhi ask this, she shook her head quickly, and then asked in a low voice: "What should we eat for dinner?"
If the late-night snack is good, she will not go to the cafeteria to eat at night, which will affect her food intake!
Feeling the temperature outside, Xiao Nianzhi thought for a while and tentatively asked: "How about some cold skin?"
Liangpi?
What is it again?
I just had jelly yesterday, so is it the same thing?
Yan Changxia's intuition is different.
In such a hot summer, hearing the word cool makes people instinctively feel comfortable, so Yan Changxia nodded quickly: "Okay, okay, what preparations should I make? I'll go find Uncle Wang?"
Xiao Nianzhi thought about the existing materials in the canteen and felt that they were enough. He shook his head: "The materials are enough, but we have to start in advance."
The water used to make cold skin is actually starch water.
You can also use ready-made water, but since gluten is added to the cold skin, it would be a waste if the starch water used to knead the gluten is not used.
However, the starch water after kneading the gluten needs to rest for three to four hours.
Therefore, if you want to eat cold skin, you have to start in advance!
When Yan Changxia heard this, he could stop reading and immediately raised his hands in agreement: "Then let's go there now!"
It was already afternoon, and there was probably no one in the cafeteria. It happened to be quiet and quiet, so they took their time!
Xiao Nianzhi felt that it was hot even while sitting and hot even when moving, so just move.
She got up with Yan Changxia, and did not ask Hongshuang to call King Wei. Before setting off, she went to the field to pick some fresh cucumbers.
After washing these, you can throw them into a bucket, hoist them into a well to hold them, and then lift them out when needed. They will be cool and refreshing.
There is usually one person on duty in the canteen in the afternoon, this person is Aunt Ye or Aunt Gu.
Aunt Cui and Aunt Fu are regular night duty staff.
Today is Auntie Gu's cold face. Xiao Nianzhi is reminded by her aunt, so he is not afraid of her cold face.
Aunt Gu was cold-faced and didn't talk much. Xiao Nianzhi smiled and greeted her. She just nodded and curtsied to Yan Changxia.
Xiao Nianzhi briefly explained that he came here to prepare some materials in advance.
After hearing this, Aunt Gu had no intention of stopping her.
If you want the final cold skin to be translucent and delicious, you need to pay attention from the beginning of the noodles.
Xiao Nianzhi habitually adds a little salt to the flour because salt can improve the gluten properties of the flour.
In addition to adding salt, when kneading the noodles, the ratio of water to water also needs to be properly matched. Otherwise, either the gluten will not be kneaded well, or the cold skin will break after cooking, stick to each other, or simply dry out.
Xiao Nianzhi moves very quickly and very skillfully. It seems that the amount of water and surface has been integrated into her muscle memory.
Yan Changxia watched from the side, unable to help at all, and still a little anxious.
After the dough is mixed, it needs to be rested. Of course, during the resting process, it needs to be kneaded twice to eliminate air bubbles in the dough.
When the dough was ready to rise, King Wei came over with him.
Xiao Nianzhi raised his head, glanced doubtfully, and thought to himself: He didn't create any fragrance, so why did the other party come here?
She thought that the other party was here to find Yan Changxia.
As a result, it didn't happen. King Wei found a place and sat there from a distance looking at Xiao Nianzhi... the dough in his hand.
After the dough has risen, you can start adding water to wash the gluten.
There is a lot of knowledge involved in washing gluten. You should squeeze it repeatedly instead of pulling it.
Pulling will easily cause the dough to spread directly in the water, failing to achieve the final level of flexibility.
Yan Changxia kept looking curiously. When she saw the dough getting smaller and the water in the basin turning white, she couldn't help but said, "Wow wow wow wow!"
Xiao Nianzhi:......
Well, Princess Mingyue really needs to read more and listen to this poor language reserve.
When King Wei heard the voice, he stretched his neck. He couldn't see clearly from a distance.
But when Yan Changxia made such a noise, he was very curious about what happened over there.
Not wanting to put too much pressure on Xiao Nianzhi, he thought about it and held back for the time being.
Anyway, he's already here. If you have something delicious, you can't miss out on his bite!
Humph, don’t think he doesn’t know, the eldest niece must want to eat alone behind his back.
He will definitely not allow this!
Xiao Nianzhi didn't know King Wei's thoughts. After washing the gluten, the ingredients for the cold skin were already half done.
After the gluten-washing water has been left to rest for three to four hours, it can be used to make cold skin.
As for gluten?
She looked at the fire in the stove and saw that it was still burning, so she immediately used it to steam the gluten.
In order to make the gluten stronger, Xiao Nianzhi added a little bit of baking soda to it.
The baking soda is wrapped in oil paper cut from the original owner's bag.
Not far away, King Wei saw Xiao Nianzhi stirring the stove and stretched his neck to look.
As for the prince’s reserve?
Sorry, he really doesn't have such moral character when it comes to delicious food.
