rebirth through food

At this time, it was almost evening, and the yard was almost dark.Lan'er picked the beans carefully and washed them clean.

Ye Xiaofeng checked it and found that he was very satisfied.Not only was Lan'er meticulous in her work, but the soybeans she bought made him very satisfied.The beans are uniform and plump, and the beans are also very new, not the kind of old soybeans.

"Brother, is the food eaten by this animal really delicious?" Lan'er squeezed a soybean and observed it carefully in front of her eyes.

"It's delicious. It all depends on the cooking. In addition to the taste of the food itself, sometimes it depends on the condiments, and the taste is different between raw and cooked, and the taste is different in different ways. Look at us that day in the woods Doesn’t the stewed roe deer legs taste different from the roast roe deer legs we eat at home?”

"Well, the tastes are very different, but I like to eat them both. Brother, when will we be able to eat the rabbits hanging in our shed? Lan'er has long wanted to eat rabbits." Lan'er took Ye Xiaofeng's clothes with wet hands Sleeves sway.

"Don't worry, when the stuff in that vat is ready, we can stew rabbits." Ye Xiaofeng comforted his sister.

After the soybeans are washed, they are filled with clean well water and soaked directly.Now that the weather is warm, it’s good to soak for three or four hours, and it’s not too late at that time, so I can make a little experiment.

There was nothing to do at night, Ye Xiaofeng and Lan'er surrounded Father Ye, asking Father Ye to tell them the story of the fairy master on Daqing Mountain.

In fact, Father Ye knows a lot of things, and he also has a talent for telling stories, which made the two children listen with great interest.

Until Lan'er pushed Ye Xiaofeng, "Brother, have your beans been soaked?"

"Oh, I forgot." Ye Xiaofeng ran to the outer room in a hurry, and the beans were soaked and plump.

After ordering Lan'er to sew a bag out of fine gauze, Ye Xiaofeng took Father Ye to the yard.

The stone mill had been cleaned just now, Ye Xiaofeng put the soaked beans into the eye of the stone mill, and Father Ye pushed the stone mill around to grind it.As Ye Xiaofeng poured the well water one ladle after another, the snow-white raw pulp slowly flowed into the wooden barrel placed at the exit.

The beans are not soaked much, and the pulp that comes out is only half a barrel.Use the gauze that Laner just sewed and washed to filter it again, put the filtered soy milk into the pot, and start to boil it on high heat.During this period, Father Ye and Lan'er could only follow Ye Xiaofeng's instructions, because they had never seen this thing before.

Father Ye was surprised how his son could do so many things, while Lan Er looked at his brother adoringly.

The soy milk was slowly boiling in the pot, and Ye Xiaofeng skimmed off the foam while cooking, looking serious as if doing research.When the raw pulp is cooked, the bean fragrance will gradually come out.

Ye Xiaofeng turned off the fire, waited for the soy milk in the pot to cool slightly, and filled three big bowls.

"Taste it." Ye Xiaofeng took the lead to take a big sip. It was fragrant and smooth for a long time, as always, and even because of the local water and soil problems, the soy milk tasted even more fragrant.

"That's right, the beany smell has become extremely light, which is completely acceptable. And the aroma of the beans itself is also cooked out. The bean fragrance is rich and it tastes very comfortable." Some people had a hard life in the past and wanted to use this bean Boiled beans and rice, only to find that the beans have a strong beany smell after cooking, and they are not as delicious as imagined.I didn't expect that it would become so luscious and delicious just by simply soaking, grinding, and cooking, and the beany smell would become bean flavor due to cooking.

Seeing that Lan'er drank half of it, Ye Xiaofeng took a spoonful of sugar, put it in her bowl and stirred it well. "Lan'er, try the sweet ones."

Ye Xiaofeng put his half bowl of milk aside, filled the soy milk in the pot into a clean wooden bucket, picked up the brine formed by the melted brine block, and slowly poured it into the already warm soy milk.

The miraculous brine was poured into the soy milk, and Ye Xiaofeng stirred it slowly with a wooden spoon. Visible to the naked eye, the soy milk was rapidly solidifying and became a semi-solid thing.

"Brother, didn't you say that this brine is poisonous? Can it still be eaten in soy milk?" Lan'er looked at Ye Xiaofeng's movements in surprise.

"Of course I can eat it. I'll let you eat it in a while. Try your soy milk." Ye Xiaofeng stopped his hands, picked up his half bowl of soy milk and drank it.

"It's delicious. This soy milk is sweet with sugar, and it's so delicious, and the astringency is gone." Lan'er raised her head in surprise after taking a sip. She usually thinks that adding some sugar to white water is very good. After drinking it, I didn't expect soy milk with sugar to be so sweet and smooth.

"Hey, the delicious ones are yet to come." Because it was the first time making it, the proportion of brine was not well grasped, so Ye Xiaofeng mixed a bowl of brine based on the principle of adding less and not too much.

As a result, this pot of tofu was really tender, but tender tofu has the benefits of tender tofu.

Ye Xiaofeng cut some minced meat, and accompanied the mushrooms with a mushroom marinade and an egg flower.Starch is obtained from chopped potatoes. Mix it thoroughly and add a small spoonful, and the marinade will become thick and bright.

Thinly turned a few pieces into the bowl with a spoon, poured a spoonful of marinade on it, and handed it to Father Ye and Lan'er. "Try this tofu brain again."

The tender tofu is soft and tender, the marinade is delicious, and it melts in the mouth without chewing. Father Ye and Lan'er both showed amazing expressions.

"Brother, this is really delicious."

"Eat more if it tastes good. I'll put the rest in gauze and press it into tofu cubes."

"Xiaofeng." Father Ye showed a thoughtful expression, and pulled him to his room and closed the door tightly.

"Father, what's the matter?" Ye Xiaofeng was taken aback by Father Ye.

"You, how do you do these things?"

"……This……"

"Xiaofeng, do you have something to hide from me?" Father Ye showed an anxious look on his face.He felt that his son had changed too much recently, and he seldom interfered with cooking before, but now he became so proficient.The most important thing is that his temper is much more lively than before, and he is no longer as taciturn as before.

"Father, can you not tell me?"

"No, if you still think of me as your father, you can tell me now." Father Ye was also furious, this kid has always been honest, why now he has his own little plan?

"Actually... a few days ago when I was playing on the hillside, I met an old man who said he would accept me as an apprentice, so he punched something in my head, and then I had a lot of cooking methods in my mind. "Ye Xiaofeng said half-truthfully, pretending to be stupid.

"Ah?" Father Ye heard that something had been punched in Ye Xiaofeng's head, and immediately turned Ye Xiaofeng's head to check.Ye Xiaofeng's hair was pulled back and forth, and he grinned in pain, secretly regretting why he was looking for such an excuse.

After searching for a long time, I can't find anything strange. Even the place on the head that was broken by Fatty Lei has already scabbed and is about to fall off.

"Stay well at home, I'll go out for a while!" After all, Father Ye felt uneasy in his heart, told the siblings a few words, turned and walked out the gate.

"Brother, what did daddy tell you?"

"It's nothing, leave him alone, help me make tofu." Put the tofu dregs that have been filtered out just now in a bowl, pour all the soft tofu into a gauze pocket, slowly squeeze out the water, and use a blue brick to support the wooden board to press live.

"It's all crushed, can I still eat it?" Lan'er didn't understand.

"You can eat it, don't worry. Let's go to bed quickly, get up early tomorrow, and cook soy milk for sale!"

"Okay!" The two boys lay down on the bed after washing up. As for Father Ye, let's talk about it when we get back.

I thought I shouldn't be able to fall asleep, but I didn't expect to feel my eyes sore and fell asleep after a long time. I didn't even know when Father Ye would come back.Father Ye patted Ye Xiaofeng's head with a heavy heart, told Lan'er to cover the quilt and turned back to his room.

He just found Lao Lizheng's place, Lizheng figured that he would call his cousin, and the relationship was fairly close, and Li Zheng usually took good care of this honest and kind nephew, and most importantly, Lao Lizheng was also like this back then. A disciple of the Qingshan School, and an inner disciple.

However, even though they are inner disciples, the fight among them is very fierce. In another fight, Lao Li is being plotted against by someone, and since then he has lost his way of cultivating immortality.His master took pity on him, passed on some prescriptions for his health, and arranged for him to be the Lizheng in the village, so that he had a place, but there was no hope of having an heir.

However, although Lao Lizheng's spiritual roots have been crippled, his head is not crippled. It is most appropriate to ask him about this kind of immortal cultivation.Father Ye asked repeatedly, Lao Lizheng was not stupid, and in the end Father Ye told the truth and repeated Ye Xiaofeng's words.

After saying this, Lao Li smiled gratifiedly. He had doubted why Ye Xiaofeng's craftsmanship suddenly became like this, and now everything has an explanation.But Father Ye is not a cultivator of immortals, Lao Lizheng didn't want to say much, he just comforted him, this is not a bad thing, but a great opportunity, there is nothing to say about the gods.

Ye Xiaofeng slept soundly all night, and got up early the next day without even calling Lan'er.

After washing, pick the beans, wash them, and soak them in water.It was cold in the morning, so he put the barrel by the stove.

Put the reconciled noodles on the stove, boil a pot of porridge with minced meat and vegetables, and make another pot of minced meat, mushrooms, diced eggs and stewed eggs.

When Father Ye and Lan'er got up, Ye Xiaofeng was in full swing.

"Brother, why didn't you call me when you got up!" Lan'er was a little angry.

"I didn't call you because you slept soundly. Come, have a bowl of hot porridge first." Ye Xiaofeng served Father Ye and Lan'er a bowl of porridge with minced meat and vegetables. "We can't just live in the water. I also put meat in this vegetable porridge, but there is not much minced meat. It should taste good with vegetable leaves."

"That's right, it's salty porridge." Father Ye nodded after taking a few mouthfuls, "Isn't that even side dishes?"

"Well, I think starting today, we will open a perennial breakfast shop in the village. Soy milk, tofu nao, sesame seed cakes, vegetable porridge, bone soup, wontons, so many varieties should be enough."

"Enough, enough, if it were me, I would definitely not know what to eat."

"The staple food is a little short?" At first glance, it sounds like there are a lot of varieties, but in fact, the main food here is some soup, which is not enough to fill you up.

"Then...steam some more vegetable buns?" Anyway, there are so many vegetables grown at home, and there are countless wild vegetables on the mountain.

"That's it!" Father Ye slapped his hands and laughed, "Have the beans been soaked? I'll grind them!"

The father and son worked together to grind out the raw pulp, filtered it and put it in a pot to boil.The people who were used to eating their mouths slowly came to the door again, but they smelled a special fragrance as soon as they entered the door.
