Chapter 513 Broad Bean Balls

Chapter 513 Broad Bean Balls

"No need, third uncle, we've already had dinner. By the way, I picked a lot of these broad beans. You can take some back and eat them. Boil some water, rake a little bit, flatten them and mix them with cold or stir-fry."

Su Ziling said that she was about to get broad beans for them.

"No, no, I have some at home. I haven't eaten what I picked last night. You can carry it back and eat it."

After separating from her third uncle's mother-in-law's family, she met no one along the way. Axiu was obviously not very happy and a little angry.

"Axiu? What's wrong?"

Axiu said in a low voice, "Sister, you want to give my little rabbit away? I don't want to give it to you."

Su Ziling touched her head and whispered to her, "The little rabbit will regenerate. In a month or two, it will give birth again. Those little rabbits that were born before will also give birth to cubs in the second half of the year." , when the rabbits give birth to rabbits, you won’t be able to raise them.”

"Besides, we are not giving it to outsiders, we are giving it to my third uncle's family. You forgot, she also gave our family two big roosters."

A Xiu was not so angry after hearing this, "Are the two big roosters at home given to me by my third uncle's mother-in-law's family?"

"Yes, the two big roosters that wake us up every day are given to us by my third uncle. A few days ago, our family was stuffed with tofu and blood sausage and they came to help. Just look, did my third uncle return the cloves after taking them? Did you stuff it?"

"We are all members of the same family, and we have to help each other. You help me and you pull me up, so that we can get along for a long time and go far. If you can't get along with this one and you can't get along with that one, isn't that a unicorn? In the family? No one can help me with anything.” (Unicorn means irony in dialect.)

Axiu nodded heavily, "Yes, sister, I understand. I'm not angry anymore. Let's catch two fat ones when we go back and give them to the third uncle's mother-in-law's family to raise."

In fact, Axiu is either really stingy or a little reluctant. If I really want to explain it to her, she is more generous than anyone else.

"What are you talking about, sisters? I heard you muttering from far away. I've been standing there for a long time and you didn't even notice me."

Su A Nai's voice came from the front.

When Su Ziling looked up, she saw Su A'nai standing at the door.

She kept reasoning with Axiu, but she didn't even raise her head to look forward. Naturally, she didn't notice Su A'nai, "A' Nai, why did you come out?"

"After sitting for a long time, I came out for a walk and took a look at the workshop." Glancing at the broad beans in the basket on her back, Grandma Su walked in front and opened the door.

"The broad beans are fine this year, they are big."

"Well, it rained heavily, and my green fennel seedlings are growing vigorously. Grandma, please help me peel the broad beans. I'll steam the glutinous rice, make sweet white wine, and pound the broad bean balls."

Su Ziling put the basket in the yard and went to get a dung pan and basin to peel the broad beans for Su Ah Nai and the others.

Eating broad beans is quite a sack. It has two layers of skin. The outer shell is peeled off first, and then the lining inside is peeled off. Only the broad bean kernels are left.

In addition, there are many broad beans that are not plump, so peeling them will naturally be much slower.

Su Ziling went into the house and looked at the glutinous rice. It was not soaked properly, but it had been soaked for an hour. It could be boiled first and then steamed.

She washed the pot back and forth several times, poured water into the pot and started a fire. When the rice was about halfway cooked, she could scoop it out, drain it, and steam it in a steamer.

While steaming the rice, she took out the jar of sweet liquor and scalded it with boiling water to sterilize it.

Pour the remaining boiling water into a basin and let it dry, and then sprinkle it on the glutinous rice. This will produce more wine juice.

After a stick of incense, the glutinous rice is ready. Pour the steamed glutinous rice into a large basin and spread it out. Then add the cooled boiled rice and spread the rice until the grains are distinct.

Let the glutinous rice dry. After it is warm, add the distiller's yeast and mix well. Put the mixed glutinous rice into the prepared jar.

After pressing firmly, make a dimple in the middle to make it easier to observe whether the wine comes out.

The mouth of the jar is sealed with oil paper, then wrapped in thick clothes, and placed in a cabinet to ferment slowly. Generally, if the temperature is sufficient, it will take five days. In winter, when the temperature is low, it may take seven or eight days.

Su Ziling did the math and figured out that she could still eat it during the New Year.

She had just finished her work here when Su A'nai called her over there, "Xiao Qing, Xiao Qing, how many broad beans do you want to peel? Have you finished peeling them?"

Su Ziling washed her hands and said, "Hey, here you go, let me take a look."

As she walked, she swung the water in her hands and glanced at the broad bean kernels that Su A'nai and the others had peeled. She poured out a third of it and said, "There isn't much left in the basket, so why don't we peel it all at once? I'll Use it to cook broad beans, sausage, and rice."

Su A'nai looked at what was left at the bottom of the basket, and saw that there wasn't much left. It wouldn't be enough for a meal, "That's okay."

Su Ziling took the broad bean kernels back to the house, while Su A'nai and Axiu sat in the yard and continued peeling them.

Su Ziling scooped up three bowls of rice, washed it and poured it into the gong pot. Bring it to a boil over high heat. After the water boils, add the peeled broad bean kernels and peas and stir evenly.

Place the sliced ​​bacon slices on top of the rice, then place a layer of tofu and blood sausage on top of the bacon.

After laying it out, you can put it on the fire pit and cook it slowly over low heat.

There is salt and other seasonings in bacon and tofu blood sausage, so there is no need to add salt to the rice. After the bacon and sausage are heated, the fat and salt inside will flow out and slowly soak into the rice.

When the rice is cooked, the rice will be filled with the aroma of bacon and sausage.

One food, one love, one meal, one love, broad bean dumplings are also called broad bean cakes. In the previous life, broad bean dumplings were used when visiting graves during the Qingming Festival to commemorate the deceased or to offer sacrifices to ancestors.

They still had a few little tunes circulating at that time, and everyone could hum a few.

Thinking of the little tune, Su Ziling hummed it unconsciously, "Papa dumplings are sold in front of the street, and the mirror dumplings are in front of me..."

Su Ziling hummed while dicing bacon. From time to time, she had to pay attention to the fire in the fire pit and turn the gong pot around to avoid burning it.

Cut the bacon into cubes and put it in a bowl for later use. Then chop the chopped green fennel sprouts. After everything is ready, the broad bean kernels on Su'a Nai's side have also been peeled.

She brought the broad beans into the house, while Axiu cleaned the floor.

"You're done peeling, do you want me to help pound it?" Su A'nai stood by the stove and watched her work.

Su Ziling took the broad bean kernels and said, "No need, Grandma, I'll just pound the beans. You can help me watch the fire in the fire pit. I've turned the pot twice. Let it simmer over low heat for a while, and the pot underneath will be better." fragrant."

Because there are bacon and sausages, the oil in the meat will flow to the bottom of the pot, and the crispy rice at the bottom of the pot will be more golden, crispy and sizzling.

With Su A'nai helping to watch the fire, Su Ziling concentrated on pounding broad bean balls.

There were a lot of broad bean kernels, so it was slower to pound them with a small pestle and mortar. She simply washed out the large pestle and mortar used to pound the bean paste. (big pestle and mortar)

Pour the peeled broad bean kernels into a stone mortar and pound them into pieces, then add the fennel and bacon prepared in advance and continue pounding them into a puree.

Then scoop the pounded broad bean puree into a basin and add a little glutinous rice noodles.

Add the glutinous rice while kneading it, but not too much. If it is too much, the fried broad bean balls will be hard. If it is too little, it will not form a ball.

Finally, beat in a few eggs, add a little salt and grass flour and mix evenly. (Boiled broad bean cake)

Su Ziling probably did too much tedious work, Su A'nai stared at her side while watching the fire.

"Is this how broad bean dumplings are made?"

"Ang?" Su Ziling looked at Su A'nai, "Isn't that so?"

Su A'nai slowly shook her head, "The last time we ate broad bean dumplings was many years ago. At that time, broad beans and fennel sprouts were pounded together. After being pounded, some wheat flour was added and then kneaded."

Su A'nai added two sticks of firewood to the fire pit and said in a soft voice, "It's just that there wasn't so much oil at that time. It was either fried or fried, or I just put a little oil in the pan and fried it slowly until both sides were golden and you could bite it in one bite." It’s still a little crunchy when it goes down.”

Su Ziling pursed her lips and smiled, "If you use wheat flour, it will probably not clump together, it will fall apart, and it should be very hard. It will taste better if you use glutinous rice flour. It will be crispy on the outside and soft and waxy on the inside."

After Axiu cleaned up the yard, she couldn't wait to rush into the kitchen, shouting, "Sister, have you started frying yet? I haven't seen fried broad bean dumplings yet."

She was lying on the stove, looking at the oil in the pot with bright eyes.

"Not yet. You should step back a little. You are worried that the oil will burst out and splash you. A drop of it will cause blisters."

Su Ziling glanced at the oil in the pot, which had begun to form small bubbles. She put her hand down and felt the heat, so she shouted at Axiu twice more.

"Stay back, I'm going to explode."

Axiu took two steps back, but still didn't move her eyes away.

Su Ziling used two fingers to grab a bunch of broad bean cake, rolled it into a round shape with both hands, pressed her palms slightly, flattened it and put it in the oil pan for frying.

As soon as the broad bean dumplings were placed in the pot, there was a sound of "La", and the oil in the pot began to bubble, and then the broad bean dumplings were dropped from the pot one after another, and Su Ziling flipped them gently with a spatula.

"Axiu, lower the fire, it's going to burn."

"Okay!" Axiu responded and sat in front of the stove door to turn off the fire.

Fry slowly over low heat. With the sound of oil sizzling, the kitchen is filled with aroma, and the surface of the broad bean balls begins to turn yellow.

At this time, turn it over and fry until both sides are golden brown, then it is ready to be taken out of the pan. (broad bean dumplings)

Looking at Axiu who was swallowing saliva, Su Ziling shook her head and laughed, shoveled one out, put it in a bowl and handed it to her, "Here, little greedy cat, this is very hot. Let it cool down before eating, or you may burn your mouth. "

"I know, sister!" He said he knew, but his eyes never moved away.

She held the bowl to her mouth and sniffed it gently. Smelling the fragrance, she smiled so happily that the corners of her mouth reached to her ears.

He blew it in small mouths, and after blowing for a while, he touched it with his hand and said, "Sister, it's not hot anymore."

"Just eat it if it's not hot."

After Su Ziling finished speaking, Axiu couldn't wait to take a bite.

The broad bean dumplings were still a little hot, so she took a bite and kept breathing out with her mouth open. It was very hot, but she couldn't bear to spit it out.

"Spit it out if it's hot, be careful of foaming on your tongue." Su A'nai looked on, dumbfounded.

"It's not hot!" She spoke a little slurred. She ate it in one bite, then took another bite. She licked her lips after eating a broad bean ball.

"Sister, it's delicious! It's crispy, with broad bean salsa, and there's meat inside. The outside is crispy, and the inside is very glutinous, a bit like a small glutinous rice ball."
