“It’s not difficult to make this wedding cake!”
Chen Meijuan divided the dough and kneaded it into small balls. Shen Jiayue took a small rolling pin and simply flattened it, and the cake was completed.
It's really not difficult if you only do the last step.
But in the process of making pastry, the more experienced steps are always dividing the dough and wrapping the fillings. As for the final rolling of the pastry, you don’t even need a rolling pin.
If you flatten it directly with your hands, it will still be a cake.
"My daughter-in-law is really good. She learned how to make pancakes right after she came up."
Chen Meijuan praised a few words and then helped Lin Xu pack the stuffing.
There are several kinds of fillings, all of which need to be slowly wrapped in dough, then kneaded, and finally rolled into dough.
Place these cake doughs on the baking tray, open the oven, take out the baked cake dough inside, and replace it with new ones.
"It's so fast. Why does the pancake rise so fast?"
Shen Jiayue was a little surprised. She remembered that when steaming steamed buns before, it took at least fifteen minutes for the dough to become fluffy.
But now, in just five or six minutes, the volume of the cake has doubled.
Lin Xu said:
"The baking powder is added here, which can make the cake dough rise quickly. If no baking powder is added, the rise speed will be much slower."
After saying that, he plugged in the electric pan, preheated it, placed the noodles spaced apart, selected the upper and lower heat to heat, and then closed the pan.
Taking advantage of this time, Lin Xu continued to make stuffing.
After five minutes, open the electric baking pan and a nice smell of dough comes out from inside.
The fragrance is mixed with the fragrance of egg and milk, which makes people feel very comfortable.
The flatbread has risen a little more, and the surface has been toasted to a brown color, making it look delicious.
Lin Xu held a bamboo spatula in one hand and the dough cakes in the other. He quickly turned the wedding cakes over, then placed the pan on the pan and continued to bake them for three minutes.
Although the current electric baking pan is heated from both the top and bottom sides, the heat is obviously not hot enough, and it needs to be turned over halfway so that the dough can be thoroughly cooked.
After turning over, the baking time needs to be halved, otherwise there is a risk of the wedding cake being burned.
The preparation of this kind of wedding cake is actually very simple. You don’t even need to apply oil, just dry bake it directly. When both sides are golden brown, you can take it out of the pan and taste it.
The cooking method is very similar to the dough used to make mutton steamed buns.
However, compared to the dead dough pancakes used in mutton steamed buns, the wedding pancakes are made from the most up-to-date dough, and it is also a relatively fluffy dough.
When baking wedding cakes, you need to use a baking pan to reduce the rise of the cakes.
Only in this way can the wedding cake be made soft yet chewy, chewy yet sweet and delicious. In a word, it is delicious.
After three minutes, open the pan again and scoop out the dough one by one.
Then put the second batch of risen cakes in and continue baking.
Shen Jiayue was holding a rolling pin and pretending to roll out the cakes. As soon as she saw the wedding cakes coming out of the pan, she immediately came over:
“It smells so good!”
These pancakes are only about the size of a palm, but are nearly two centimeters thick, giving them a very solid feel.
The round noodle pancake, with its brown color and rich aroma, makes people want to try it.
Lin Xu said:
"This kind of cake actually tastes better when it's cold, but if you want to try it now, you can try it. Take these out and let everyone have a try."
When Shen Jiayue heard this, she walked outside with a small bamboo basket.
"Lele, Yanbao, Sister Xiaoqi, Sister Yuanyuan... Come, come, try the wedding cakes I made, and give you a chance to be happy."
Chen Yan was sitting on the sofa at the moment, watching Ren Jie and Shen Guofu playing fighting games on PS5, and couldn't help but let out a "beep" after hearing this:
"Yueyue, do you think I didn't hear the conversation in the kitchen? You just used a rolling pin to roll out the cake, and just left it here and said you made it. This wedding cake is really... looks good, let me taste it.
Light."
Hum hum, although it was not done by my cousin, after all, she is the bride today, so it gives her some face.
Shen Jiayue said happily:
"Anyway, I have to be a new daughter-in-law. When you get married, if you don't make wedding cakes for me to eat, I will hire someone to make trouble at the wedding so that you can't sleep at night."
Chen Yan: "..."
It has to be you who can think of such a bad idea.
The two sisters no longer bickered, but each picked up a small pancake.
The temperature of the pancake is still very high. When you take a bite, the browned shell tastes fragrant and crispy, and the inside of the pancake has a rich egg flavor, milk aroma and flour aroma.
This aroma combined with the slightly fluffy texture makes it feel like bread has been pressed into a pancake.
"Hey, it's so sweet and delicious."
Although there is a lot of sugar in it, there is no particularly strong sweetness when eating it. Instead, the milky flavor brought by the custard powder gives the wedding cake the finishing touch.
Because the flour cake is made with peanut oil and lard, although it feels very dry on the outside and does not have any greasy feeling, when you eat it, it has a moist texture unique to fat.
This feeling makes the wedding cake taste more delicious and more layered.
Chen Yuanyuan took a bite and gave her sister-in-law a thumbs up:
"It's really delicious. I remember when I was a kid, my relatives had wedding cakes twice. When I got older, I changed them to snow cakes. I thought snow cakes were wedding cakes. I didn't expect to eat the original ones today, and I realized that I missed a lot of delicious food.
”
Chen Meide on the side took one, took a bite, and said with a smile:
"In the past, people were busy and supplies were not abundant. Every day, they were thinking of ways to eat, but they still didn't have enough to eat. How is it like now? Many families don't bother to cook. They make do with a meal at a street stall or go home.
Order takeout."
While life is prosperous, life pressure has also increased sharply.
Especially those who are burdened with mortgage loans are rushing for time every day and struggling to make money. Many times they even make money on the basis of a healthy overdraft.
Relatively speaking, although I was poor in the past, I was quite leisurely.
Someone is having a wedding, and they go to help two days in advance, and they don’t leave on the day of the wedding. After the banquet, they eat wedding cakes, and then they have a wedding party in the evening, having fun for most of the night before they disperse.
But now, the so-called making trouble in the bridal chamber is just a meaning, not even a meaning, just letting the groom and the bride go.
We all know how tiring it is to get married, plus we are busy, so we canceled the wedding ceremony.
In the kitchen, Lin Xu felt that the electric pan was too slow to cook, and could only cook seven or eight at a time, so he placed the pan on the gas stove.
Heat the pot first, then put the dough cakes in one by one, cover the pot, and start baking.
After three or four minutes, turn the dough over and continue baking.
Soon, the pot of stuffed wedding cakes was ready. After they were brought outside, everyone tasted them individually. In the end, they felt that the noodle cakes with red bean paste filling and jujube paste filling were the most delicious.
I was busy, and sure enough someone came to visit me.
Brother Qiang, Qi Panpan, Yue Liyue, Panda, Wu Kexin and other old customers came to see Lin Xu, firstly to visit, and secondly to say goodbye to Lin Xu. They were going back to their hometowns to celebrate the New Year.
Every Chinese New Year, the originally bustling streets and alleys in Beijing become deserted.
Many people working in the capital are just waiting to return to their hometowns during the New Year, see their wives and children, spend time with their parents and elders, and have a New Year's Eve dinner together.
After just a few days of rest, I have to return to the capital and continue to make money by moving bricks.
Lin Xu wiped his hands, took a bite of a pumpkin-filled wedding cake:
"We are going back tomorrow. My father-in-law has chartered a business bus and will leave early tomorrow morning. We will probably arrive in Yinzhou in the afternoon. We will go back to rest for a while and kill pigs in the scenic spot the day after tomorrow."
When he heard about killing pigs, Brother Qiang smiled and said:
"When you talk about killing pigs, I get greedy for killing pigs and vegetables. This year Panpan went to my house to celebrate the New Year. My mother bought a hundred kilograms of meat and killed several big roosters. She also planned to kill a sheep when we went back. I couldn't eat it.
When it comes to killing pigs and vegetables, eat lambs and vegetables."
My daughter-in-law is coming to visit, but Brother Qiang and his family have already shown their sincerity in advance.
Jin Province is not close to the sea. Although you can't eat any decent seafood, there is no shortage of beef, mutton, chicken, duck, and pork.
Qi Panpan lightly kicked Brother Qiang:
"It's all your fault. I had to tell your mother that I could eat a whole big elbow in one meal, but I ended up with so much meat. I thought you had found a sumo wrestler."
Brother Qiang grinned:
"Not only is there meat, but there are also vegetarian dishes. My mother is going to go to my uncle's school tomorrow morning to eat salt-fried mutton. I will cook it for you to try on the day when the sheep is slaughtered."
Because the northern Shanxi region is close to Inner Mongolia, there is no shortage of mutton.
Moreover, they are all high-quality mutton, and various methods can be found locally.
Shen Jiayue asked curiously:
"What kind of dish is salt-fried mutton? Is it the same as salt-fried pork in Sichuan cuisine?"
Everyone looked at Lin Xu, who immediately said:
"It's different. It's completely different. Salt-fried mutton is made by cutting the freshly killed mutton into large pieces, adding salt and water directly and cooking it in a pot. It pays attention to half the mutton and a bowl of water, and one mutton and half a bowl of water. It's very delicious.
Unique."
Thanks to the system, otherwise Lin Xu wouldn’t be able to redeem the salt-fried mutton recipe, and wouldn’t be able to answer everyone’s questions.
Chen Yan was a little surprised:
"Half mutton requires a bowl of water, and half mutton requires a bowl of water? Shouldn't it mean that the more meat, the more water is needed? Why is it reduced by half?"
Brother Qiang is no stranger to this dish. He smiled and said:
“Because lamb is used to make this dish, the meat is relatively tender, and the moisture inside will come out when cooked. So the more meat, the less water you add. The moisture in the meat itself is used to cook the lamb, and it tastes super good.
”
When Shen Jiayue heard this, she immediately looked at Lin Xu:
"Xubao, can we cook this dish when we arrive in Yinzhou?"
"Let's see how the mutton is like first. This dish requires too high quality of mutton, so it may not be possible to make it. Only high-end mutton will do."
These words attracted Shen Guofu's attention:
"It's okay. When the time comes, I'll ask Boss Huang to express a sheep. As long as I can buy it with money, it won't be a big deal."
Well, since my father-in-law has spoken, there is no problem.
In the afternoon, many people came one after another. Most of them heard that the family made wedding cakes and came here to taste them.
But after tasting it, I felt that the wedding cake was quite delicious, and many people even took a few when they left.
Chen Meijuan said:
"Xiao Xu can sell wedding cakes in the store later. Anyway, this kind of cake tastes better when it is cooled, and it lasts for several days. These white-collar workers in the city, instead of eating those heavy-flavored delicacies that are heavy in oil and salt when working overtime, they also
Why not eat this kind of cake? At least it won't hurt your stomach and can even nourish your stomach."
When she said this, Chen Yan immediately agreed:
"I think Aunt Chen's suggestion is good. It will be like the vegetarian cakes sold in Shaolin Temple. It will be served in a small jar, which is both exquisite and easy to store."
In many areas of Shandong, wedding cakes have indeed become a daily delicacy that can be bought everywhere.
Lin Xu thinks he can really try it, but he definitely won’t be able to make it now. When the Spring Festival is over, he will think about this matter. It is also time for the store to offer a wave of meals suitable for takeout.
In the evening, according to Chen Meijuan's wish, we had dinner at home, but there were too many relatives on both sides, so as a last resort, everyone went to the store to eat.
I didn’t drink anything while eating because I was leaving early tomorrow morning. People like Chen Meide, Chen Meiliang, Lin Hongjun and others planned to buy some specialties from the capital to take back.
It’s not easy to come to the capital, and my relatives and friends from my hometown should take the opportunity to walk around.
In fact, there are not many specialties that can be bought in the capital. They are just some so-called Jingba pieces and other snacks, and the taste is not even as good as those made by Lin Xu.
The next morning, Chen Meijuan got up early, packed up the soy sauce duck made by Lin Xu, and took them all away.
Chen Yan took away her share with Ren Jie when she went back yesterday. The remaining soy sauce meat, soy sauce duck, soy sauce chicken and other meats were packed up and brought back to Yinzhou.
At that time, whether you eat it yourself or give it to relatives, it is a good choice.
"Dundun, you are going back to your hometown today to celebrate the New Year. Do you, the children, want to take them back together?"
Shen Jiayue woke up in the morning and saw Dundun watching Tom and Jerry on the cat castle with the little mouse, little rabbit and other friends on the tablet, so she asked curiously.
Upon hearing this, Dundun immediately jumped down, took out several sweaters from the open cabinet, and then jumped onto the cat castle with a plastic bag in his mouth, using his paws to try hard to pull the little mouse and other toys into the bag. p>
"Mommy, let's help you take them all back to your hometown for the New Year, right? Do you want these sweaters too? My son is really a sensible child."
In addition to sweaters and small toys, Dundun also picked out a few portable cat scratching boards and cat nests, and even wanted to take Tongtianzhu back, but Shen Jiayue refused:
"There is also a Tongtian Pillar in my hometown. My grandfather made it from a whole tree. It is very beautiful."
Upon hearing this, Dundun's eyes suddenly lit up.
During the expansion of Longqishan Scenic Area, a beautiful tree was cut down by workers.
Based on the principle of recycling waste, Lin Hongqi peeled off the bark and cut off excess branches, leaving only the branches. After drying, he wrapped the whole tree with hemp rope suitable for cats to climb, and the whole tree became
An oversized cat climbing frame.
Shen Jiayue took her mobile phone and clicked on the photos taken by Chen Meijuan to show Dundun. The little guy couldn't wait to go back.
"We're going home this afternoon. Don't worry. Will you take a small car with mommy or a big car with your grandparents?"
This time when he goes back, in addition to the bus packaged by Shen Guofu, Lin Xu will drive his own Maxari back.
Firstly, it is convenient to use when walking around in my hometown. Secondly, during the Chinese New Year, I used the scenic spots in my hometown to shoot a set of promotional videos for Maisarui.
This not only promotes the scenic spot, but also promotes the brand of Maisarui, a win-win situation.
Dundun rolled his eyes and then chose Shen Jiayue.
"Ha, he is indeed Mommy's good son. Come on, let's go downstairs to eat first. After breakfast, we'll set off!"
When I came downstairs, the steamed chicken legs for Dundun were already drying.
Chen Meijuan also cooked porridge and pancakes.
Shen Guofu said:
"There are a lot of people today, and we set off relatively early. Remember to bring some food, so as not to lose everything on the way and go hungry during the Chinese New Year."
Lin Xu took a bite of the pancake:
"The store has already made arrangements, including hot, cold, salty, sweet, and a variety of braised food and snacks, ensuring that everyone will not be hungry."
Shen Guofu and his wife's things were packed yesterday, and Aunt Liu and the others were given annual leave, so that the nannies could go home for the New Year in peace.
After breakfast, Lin Xu cleaned up the kitchen and put on his down jacket. The whole family grabbed their suitcases and drove downstairs to Yingchun Street, preparing to meet the bus.
When we arrived at the store entrance, the bus from Diaoyutai had already arrived.
Mrs. Shen was also picked up from home by Chen Yan, and along with her was a large suitcase. There were a change of clothes and toiletries for Mrs. Shen, as well as red envelopes and gifts she had prepared for relatives in Yinzhou.
Dou Wenjing, Shu Yun and Song Tiantian delivered the packed food and drink supplies to the bus. In addition to braised snacks, they also packed a bucket of yam juice in an insulated bucket.
"The store will be left to you two. Remember to give out red envelopes in the name of the company on the first day of the new year. When I come back, I will give out my share separately."
The company belongs to the company, and the boss belongs to the boss. This needs to be distinguished.
Dou Wenjing, who has successfully obtained 7% of the company's incentive equity, said with a smile:
"Everything has been arranged. You can celebrate the New Year with peace of mind."
Chen Yan asked curiously:
"You really don't want to go back to celebrate the New Year, Xiaodoudou?"
"I won't go back. Yesterday, Ziqiang Shengjian was on holiday. When Yang Lin returned to his hometown, I asked him to bring 50,000 yuan to my parents, which was enough for them to spend during the New Year."
The reason why Yang Lin was asked to send money was to let those relatives know that she had made money in the capital.
Fifty thousand is not much, but if it is just used to celebrate the New Year, it is still a bit of a luxury.
Chen Yan put her arms around Dou Wenjing's neck and said:
"I'm here to accompany you on New Year's Eve to see how generous my sister is!"
Shu Yun asked with a smile:
"Did Officer Ren have to be on duty during the Spring Festival, so you came to us?"
Chen Yan laughed dryly:
"See it through, don't tell it, be careful I curse you, my curse is very effective."
Shu Yun held Dundun in his arms:
"I have Dun Dun, so I'm not afraid of your curse... My dear, be happy when you go home for the New Year, and stop fighting with the geese. You can't beat them."
Dundun nodded obediently when he thought of the scene when he was bullied by the big goose when he went back last time.
At this time, Chen Yuejin and Shen Guofang also drove up. The couple handed out New Year's red envelopes to Chen Shaokang, Shi Moli and other younger generations, and said goodbye to everyone.
After everyone got on the bus and all kinds of luggage were loaded into the luggage compartment, Shen Guofu said:
"Okay, okay, ready to go, Dundun, which car are you taking?"
Shen Jiayue stood next to Maisha Rui and said with a smile:
"Before breakfast, Dundun made an appointment with me to sit down..."
Before the word "car" was finished, Dundun, who was wearing a small sweater, nimbly jumped onto the steps of the bus, then climbed onto the bus along the steps and threw herself into Han Shuzhen's arms.
"I'm just telling you, with such a big car, how could my Dundun ride in a small car?"
Shen Jiayue glared at the little fat cat angrily:
"It's true what is said on the Internet. A twelve-pound cat has a thirteen-pound bone. The little guy is such a thief. He promised to ride in a small car with me, but he actually got into a big car. Wait and see how I deal with you when you get back!"
The pneumatic door of the bus slowly closed, and then it turned around and prepared to go to the North Fourth Ring Road.
When the bus was gone, Lin Xu, Shen Jiayue, Lin Hongqi and Chen Meijuan also boarded the Maisha Rui. After saying goodbye to Dou Wenjing, Chen Yanshuyun and Chen Yuejin, they followed the bus onto the North Fourth Ring Viaduct.
Follow the North 4th Ring Road to the West 4th Ring Road, then go to the West 5th Ring Road, finally turn onto the Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway, and then go straight to Yinzhou.
The car radio plays traffic information and weather conditions.
After the broadcast, the music started to play as usual. Today's song is "Go Home for the New Year" by Wang Baoqiang:
Rich or not, go home to celebrate the New Year,
It turns out that I want to return my homeland in fine clothes.
Rich or not, go home to celebrate the New Year,
There is always a New Year’s Eve dinner at home...
