Crispy little husband

When she first started making soft candies, Su Xin asked to separate the skin and pulp of the dried red dates, and to dry the skins of the red dates and grind them into fine powder for storage.

These steps are cumbersome and time-consuming. Aunt Chun didn’t know why she did this. Now she finally understands. It turns out that this will make the taste of the soft candy have the layered taste that the second son said, and it will also have a different feeling when chewing. .

"Second son, with the jujube jelly candy, our Tang Ji will definitely be famous again in the county." Aunt Chun was very happy. The things she participated in helping to help the second master were very worthwhile for her. thing.

"Well, it's not just our Chong'an County, depending on what my little uncle means, we also have to sell it to other places. In two days, we will also make orange candies. I guess I will have to trouble Aunt Chun to tell you how to make these two kinds of soft candies. Teach them to Brother Da Da." Su Xin said with a smile.

Su Xin was able to teach Liangzi how to make golden candy alone because only Su Xin knew how to make golden candy, and Liangzi could only learn how to make golden candy for the time being.

For this reason, Liangzi also worshiped Su Xin as a teacher under Tang Dong's care. Although she did not worship Su Xin seriously, Liangzi usually treats Su Xin with the respect she treats her teacher. Su Xin's words are great. Sometimes it is estimated that it is more effective than Tang Dong's.

"Teach Dahai and them?" Aunt Chun didn't know Tang Dong's plan. She heard Su Xin say that she would teach Dahai and others how to make fudge, and looked at Su Xin strangely.

"It seems that little uncle hasn't told you yet." Su Xin discussed with Director Tang before that Aunt Chun would be the one who taught Dahai and others how to make fudge. He thought that Director Tang had already told Aunt Chun.

This is not a secret that cannot be revealed. Su Xin saw that Aunt Chun was very strange, so she gave a general introduction to her little uncle's plan. Specifically, who would follow Aunt Chun to learn how to make jellybeans, and who would follow Liangzi to learn how to make jellybeans. Tang Dong will arrange it when the time comes.

Now that Tang Ji's matter has not been investigated clearly, Dahai and the others didn't learn how to make candy so quickly.

"No problem, I will definitely learn the craft from the second son, and when the master lectures them, I will teach them the craft of making sugar." Aunt Chun nodded emphatically.

As the second son of the family, Su Xin is the elder brother. It is impossible for him to teach them how to make candy among a group of elders all day long. Even if Su Xin is willing and Su Gaoping does not object, it is impossible for Tang Dong and Tang Xi to agree.

Therefore, this job can only be done by Aunt Chun and Liangzi who know how to make sugar. Needless to say, Liangzi, Aunt Chun has been married long ago and can be the mother of Dahai and the others.

"I think orange candy is simpler than jujube sugar. There is no need to make two layers. Also, the oranges we bought at a big price are not very useful. Orange red is the key to the taste of orange candy." Now that we are talking about making sugar, Su Xin told Aunt Chun in advance about the orange candy that she planned to make tomorrow.

Tangerine red, also known as tangerine peel, is a traditional Chinese medicine made from dried orange peel. Since Su Xin planned to start making orange candy, and after learning that the price of fresh oranges is high, he asked Tang Dong to find a trustworthy person to help him buy them in batches from other places. A lot of tangerines came back and left. In the tangerine candy he made, most of the tangerine flavor will come from these dried tangerine peels.

"It turned out to be red orange." Aunt Chun nodded, so she had a rough idea of ​​how the second son would make orange candy, which should be quite different from jujube-flavored jelly candy.

Oranges are a fruit in autumn and winter. Although there is a village under Chong’an County that has planted many orange trees, many people eat less oranges. The price of a catty of oranges is almost as high as a catty of white rice. Aunt Chun would grit her teeth and buy some from time to time. I came back because the master and the others like to eat.

If the orange petals whose pulp is mostly water is really boiled into a thick juice and added to the sugar, the cost of making sugar will be too high. The price of orange sugar will definitely be much higher than that of jujube-flavored jellybeans. This is unreasonable.

So, Su Xin thought for a while, and thought of orange red instead of fresh oranges.

Although there will be some difference in taste, when the orange flavor is diluted with sugar water, it will not be so obvious.

Su Xin talked to Aunt Chun, and Aunt Chun couldn't sit still, so she immediately went to the room she had vacated to keep the orange red, and took a half catty of orange red, and asked Su Xin what preparations to make in advance.

"You don't need to do anything today. If you really want to make electricity, Aunt Chun, you can wash them and soak them in cold white water overnight. The cooking time will be shorter tomorrow." Su Xin looked at Aunt Chun The look of eagerness to do something made her find something to do.

Since the red date jelly candy was finished ahead of schedule today, Su Xin's steamed steamed buns with brown sugar and red dates are enough for Tang's family and Su's three-bedroom family.

"Okay, I'm going to wash it out and soak it up now, Second Young Master, or I'll bake another batch of starch, and I'll definitely use it tomorrow." Aunt Chun felt that what Su Xin ordered was not enough, so she found something for herself Do.

"As long as you are busy enough, you can do it." Su Xin didn't stop.

Aunt Chun is a hardworking person, and it is uncomfortable for her not to work. With her, she has raised Su Xin so much that she is not so used to doing things by herself when she first came to this world.

Staying at the Tang's house until it was almost time for dinner, Su Xin watched Aunt Chun busily finish what should be prepared and could be prepared in advance, and then he carried a basket of flowering steamed buns enough for their family of five And a small can of kimchi that Aunt Chun made herself.

In the afternoon, Yuan Sande went to the third room of Su's family when he was free, and told Tang Xi that there would be steamed buns to eat at night. Tang Xi didn't have steamed rice, but only prepared a pot of porridge and two small stir-fries, served with Aunt Chun's kimchi. , Enough to eat at night.

When Su Xin arrived home, Tang Xi was cooking in the kitchen. Seeing the basket Su Xin was carrying, he asked, "Brother Xin, I heard from Yuan San that there are new steamed buns to eat, but he didn't make it clear when he came over, what is it?" New buns?"

Hearing Tang Xi's words, Su Xin rolled her eyes, put the kimchi aside, lifted a corner of the basket to Tang Xi's nose, and asked, "Em, are we using the leftover ingredients from making fudge?" Come out, smell it, and guess what it was used for.”

Su Xin always thought that Tang Xi had the talent to make pastries, but unfortunately, he was too obedient to the rules of passing on males and not brothers and females, and never thought about making sellable pastries.

If it wasn't for Su Xin saying that he saw Fang Zi in a fragmented book of Su's family, and if it wasn't for the little "Su Xin" left some minor problems before, it is estimated that Tang Xi would not let Su Xin make candy.

Tang Xi smelled the smell wafting out of the basket. The smell of red dates was very obvious. He could tell it right away: "There are red dates, but not only red dates, but also other things were added. I'll smell it again."

"Mum, you guessed right, there are red dates, I'll let you smell it again." Su Xin opened a small corner of the basket and moved closer, so that Tang Xi could only smell the smell but not see what was inside.

While turning the vegetables in the pot to prevent them from getting burnt, Tang Xi smelled it and said hesitantly, "Did brown sugar be added?"

Brown sugar is maltose, and the steamed buns with added sugar smell a bit sweeter than the ones without sugar, but Tang Xi immediately realized that he was wrong when he said it: "No, it's brown sugar, brown sugar is added to the steamed buns."

"Em is so amazing. You can tell what is added in it just by smelling it, that is, red dates and brown sugar." Su Xin lifted the cloth covering the basket so that Tang Xi could see the color of the steamed buns clearly, and then put some steamed buns into the basket. Put the cold steamed buns on the steamer that has been set up earlier.

It is cold in winter, and the steamed buns will be cold after a while. If you don’t steam them on the steamer, Su Gaoping can only eat cold steamed buns when he comes back.

"Why do you think of putting these things in the steamed buns?" Tang Xi was about to eat dinner, smelling the smell of the steamed buns, he already felt a little hungry, he was even more hungry, he thought the taste of the steamed buns should not be bad.

With a slight smile on her lips, Su Xin explained to Tang Xi: "Em, Aunt Chun and I have been using red dates to make candy recently, and the red dates used to make sugar are not tasty and we have to throw them away. I think it is a waste, so I want to use them." Let’s make it into other foods and try it, but I didn’t expect it to taste good, I read in the book that other things can be added to the steamed buns…”

Su Xin put all the steamed buns in the steamer, turned around and looked at Tang Xi who was obviously interested in the other steamed buns he mentioned: "Mum, if you are free in the future, why don't you come to little uncle's and make things with me?"

"You know, I have only read the prescription in the book now, but I don't quite understand how to do it and the steps. You have helped grandpa and grandma before. I think if you have Eun Help, Aunt Chun and I can relax a lot."

Making cakes is different from making sugar. Su Xin secretly changed the concept. He just wanted Tang Xi to help him. He felt that Tang Xi's talent was wasted with the fabric every day. In fact, the elder brother can be busy with the cloth village. Come on, they don't do things like sewing by themselves.

"Brother Xin, you don't know what's going on. What you make at your little uncle's place is Tang Ji snacks. It's not peanuts, melon seeds or sugar. It's different from when I used to help my parents." Tang Xi At this time, the reaction was quick, and she immediately discovered what Su Xin said was wrong.

Su Xin then adjusted her rhetoric: "It's actually the same. Peanuts, melon seeds, and various sugars are used to make cakes. Mixing them together can make different cakes. Tang Ji just separates them now. It's all the same thing, Eminem you can do it."

Unable to fool Tang Xi on the previous point, Su Xin changed the direction of fooling, turning Tang Xi from not making cakes because he followed the rules into Tang Xi feeling that he was not competent.

Just when Su Xin was thinking of persuading Tang Xi to help the Tang family, Su Gaoping came back.

Su Gaoping came back later than usual today. Although he had adjusted his mood before entering the house, he still looked obviously not right.

Tang Xi and Su Gaoping have been together day and night for more than ten years, and they understand Su Gaoping's emotions very well. Looking at him like that, he asked strangely: "Sir, what's wrong with you?"
