The days when I am farming in the last days

Chapter 17 Dried Sweet Potatoes

This sudden melancholy, before it was fully formed, was broken by Tang Ma's voice.

She walked towards them carrying a bag, with a slightly excited smile on her face, "Come and see what I found?"

Although I have only spent a short period of time here, even Ozawa knows that whenever Mama Tang says this, it means that she has found something delicious again.So he ran over immediately, hugged Tang Ma's leg, and padded his feet to look into the bag curiously, "Let me see what it is?"

"You want to see it too?" Tang Ma couldn't help laughing, she knelt down and showed him the bag, "Look, can you recognize what it is?"

Ozawa poked his head and took a look in, reached out and grabbed a translucent disc, put it in his hand and looked at it for a while, his face was serious and his brows were tightly wrinkled.Seeing this, Tang Ma laughed even harder, "Do you see what it is?"

"You can't eat this!" Ozawa pinched it with both hands, making sure that the thing was hard, and it didn't look like food in terms of appearance or feel, and he was a little disappointed.

"What is it?" Qin Yu heard the words and leaned over to take a look.

Tang's mother explained, "The potato chips I dried in autumn, I put them here and forgot."

Slice the potatoes into thin slices, put them in boiling water and scald until they are cooked, but take them out when the taste is still crisp, and then spread them out one by one, and expose them to the sun to dry out the water, and they will become translucent slices.When eating, as long as it is fried in oil, it will expand immediately and the taste will become crispy.

It is worth noting that the potatoes must be cooked. The raw ones will turn black after being dried, and they will not swell even if they are fried.

This is also one of Tang Han's favorite snacks when he was a child, and adults use it as an appetizer.

However, there was a shortage of supplies at that time. If you didn't go to the county town to go to the market, you could only get local ingredients for your meals, so you needed to prepare these dry goods.There are a lot of things that can be bought now, so the potato chips are dried and fried two or three times, and then they are forgotten.

"No bugs out yet, everything is good." Tang Han went over and checked it out, and said for sure, "Fry something to eat at night, and forget about eating it during the Chinese New Year."

"I'll leave it to you if you like it." Tang Ma stuffed the bag to her.

Tang Han went back with his arms in his arms, found a bamboo basket, and planned to pour out the potato chips for inspection, but after taking out the potato chips, he found that there was actually a bag underneath.Inside were some dark brown strips, which smelled a little sweet, but I couldn't tell what it was at the moment.

She could only raise her voice and shout, "Mom, what are you doing?"

Tang Ma looked back from afar and said, "That's dried persimmons! I said I'd find them and eat them, but I couldn't find them anywhere. So they were put here. Your father must have misplaced them again."

"Hey, you, why is it my fault again?" Father Tang was arranging things on the other side, and couldn't help protesting.

Tang Han watched them bicker with a smile, grabbed a dried persimmon and chewed it in his mouth, "This thing looks black, can I still eat it?"

After chewing it twice, she changed her mouth again, "The taste is not bad, but the appearance is a bit sloppy. Do you want to eat it?" She said, and handed one to Jiang Dai.

Jiang Dai is still a little mentally handicapped.Although through this period of contact, she already knew that Tang Ma was a very clean person, and it was never easy to clean up the food.But this dried persimmon has not been preserved with honey like the ones sold outside, so the color is not so golden and translucent, and the appearance is indeed too bad.

But after hesitating for a moment, she reached out to take it and took a bite.The brows stretched out.

Tang Han continued to dig down and found that there was still a bag.This time there is no need to ask Mama Tang, she has already recognized it as dried sweet potatoes.This appearance is much better than dried persimmons. The color is golden red, with a thin layer of frost hanging on it, and it is soft when pinched, so the taste must not be too bad.

"You can eat this." She handed the dried sweet potato to Jiang Dai, "This should be delicious."

Jiang Dai took a sip, and the dried sweet potatoes were indeed softer and sweeter.Chen Fangao's sweet potatoes are full of sugar, and they almost flow honey when baked. The steamed and sun-dried ones are not inferior. The sugar is completely integrated into the pulp. The taste is very good, sweet but not greasy, making people want to eat it again.

Mama Tang dried up such a bag in total, which probably weighed two or three catties, and the whole group ate it all up in the afternoon, and they still couldn't get enough of it.

Anyway, the sweet potatoes are ready-made now, and the weather in the past two days is also good, the sun has been out all the time, so we discussed it and planned to dry it again.In fact, if it can't be dried in the sun, it is not impossible to consider roasting it on the fire. Although the color of the roasted food may not be so good, the taste is fine.

So I went to wash the sweet potatoes and steam the sweet potatoes.

Although it is said to be steamed and dried, who can resist the sweet smell when the sweet potatoes come out of the basket?The steamer was brought down and put aside to cool, and everyone couldn't help but grab a piece when they passed by.Just like this, you take one piece and I eat one piece, and it won't take long to finish eating.

"Let's steam it tomorrow." When Tang Ma came back to check, she saw that there were only three or five yuan left in the steamer, so she simply took it out, and said while eating.

"Give me a piece." Tang Han immediately reached out.

Tang Ma freed her hand and patted her palm, "Isn't it enough for you to eat so much?"

Tang Han rubbed his stomach guiltily, thinking that today's dinner can be skipped.But before, she was afraid that the steaming would not be done well, so she sliced ​​the sweet potatoes very thin, such a small slice, she could always eat it.

But the mouth said, "You have too much there, you can't eat it, let me do you a favor."

"Thank you, but I don't need help." Tang Ma gave her a blank look, then turned to greet Ozawa, "Come on Ozawa, grandma will give you a piece—can you still eat it?"

Ozawa nodded without hesitation.

"Then give Jiang Dai a piece!" Tang Han commanded.

Jiang Dai quickly waved her hand and refused, "No. I'll eat fried potato chips at night, I think that should be delicious too."

For dinner, we only cooked two bowls of rice because everyone had eaten enough.It is rare to pour oil out to fry things. In addition to potato chips, peanuts and rice crackers are also fried. The rice crackers are also made by myself. After the glutinous rice is steamed and dyed, it is made into small cakes of various shapes with molds and dried It's done.

This one is specially made for festivals, and there are not many left, and they are all fried in a pan.

Peanuts are the base, and rice crackers and potato slices are placed on top.It was deep-fried until it was browned and crispy. Before the meal was served, everyone started working tacitly.Jiang Dai ate a piece of potato chips, which tasted very different from potato chips and had a very unique flavor.

Although greasy things are easy to gain weight, Jiang Dai couldn't resist eating a few more slices.

After the new year, she would get up early to exercise like Qin Yu, and she made up her mind for the umpteenth time.

As soon as I made up my mind, I heard Tang Han say, "Keep this oil. Let's eat fried spicy potatoes tomorrow. I haven't eaten it for a long time. I wanted to buy a bowl on the way back that day, but the epidemic broke out. I can't care less."

Seeing that the epidemic is getting more and more serious now, it is not known when it will return to normal. Before that, it is estimated that it is impossible to buy these snacks on the street.

"Fried, potatoes are ready-made anyway, and I bought peppers for you." Tang Ma said.

Jiang Dai looked at Tang Han...'s stomach strangely.Everyone eats the same. For some reason, Tang Han never seems to worry about this, as if her stomach leads to a different dimension, and the food she eats disappears.

But looking at Tang's mother and Tang's father again, maybe this family has inherited the physique of not being fat?

The author has something to say: I should start farming after eating for a few more days... [Fu amount]
