Crispy little husband

After Tang Dong's brain went through the initial fever, he gradually calmed down under Su Xin's persuasion: "Now Xu Ji has started to learn how to make our Tang Ji's candy. How to do it, the number of people who come to our Tangji to buy sugar will become less, and it will not be beautiful if we make too much sugar and can’t sell it, so let’s just hang everyone’s appetite for the time being.”

In fact, Su Xin did not let Tang Dong find others to learn from him. These methods of making candy were also slowly thought out by people in later generations, and they did not come out suddenly.

In this era, with Tang Ji's candy leading the way, I believe that the sugar masters in this era can understand the way of these candies after researching and researching. It is only a matter of time before Tang Ji can outshine others.

The difference is that Tang Ji has Su Xin, a guy who can cheat, and at least can guarantee that for decades, he will not be defeated by others because of new ideas. Teach them various methods and principles of making candy, so that Tang Ji's candy can last forever and become a generation of classics.

After giving up the idea of ​​producing a lot of candy, Tang Dong began to think about the running business list that he had placed with him these days, and wanted to try to see if he could move it, and try to put the list of Baibao Pavilion as far forward as possible.

Compared with the unstable running business, large-scale transactions like Pufang Temple and Baibao Pavilion are much more stable. If you can satisfy them first, try to satisfy them first.

On the way home with Tang Dong, Su Xin deliberately proposed to take a detour to a winery. He bought some fermented rice to take home and made the fermented glutinous rice cakes he mentioned in Yaojiazhuangzi.

Su Xin made fresh meat fillings, because he made this cake on a temporary basis. The meat fillings are the fastest to make, and other fillings are more complicated. If you like it next time, you can try other ones when you have time.

The fermentation of the cake skin comes from the yeast in the wine, so the pancakes also have crisp pores. In addition to the faint wine and sweet aroma in the fermented glutinous rice, this fermented glutinous rice contains wine rice, so the pancakes also have rice fragrance.

Rice, noodles, wine, and minced meat were roasted slowly with only a thin layer of oil on the bottom of the pot. Su Jia, who had eaten a lot of ice crisps in the afternoon, was so greedy that his mouth was watering.

But now she only dares to look at Su Xin's pancakes and dare not eat them. Even if Su Xin hands them to her, she can only shake her head unwillingly and refuse, because she is worried that if she eats them now, she will eat everything after dinner. No more.

At that time, Eminem would find out that she had eaten something secretly in the afternoon, and Su Jia would not be able to eat any candies or other snacks for a period of time, and she could only eat half a bowl for each meal!

"Second brother, why do you cook so many delicious food on the same day?" Raising her hand to wipe away the saliva that didn't exist at the corner of her mouth, Su Jia watched the white and fat pancakes being baked golden on both sides, smelling the whole room The fragrance of the seeds, exhausted all his strength to control his hand.

"Because I don't have anything to do today. Is there anything my little sister wants to eat, and the second brother will continue to cook tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." Su Xin looked at Su Jia's gluttonous little appearance and smiled.

It may not be useful to blindly control the child from eating. He happened to be free recently, or he would just have a snack every day to satisfy this greedy little girl.

"Second brother, what are you going to do?" Su Jia was attracted by what Su Xin said, she temporarily put aside the smell of the room, and looked at Su Xin with bright eyes, "Butterfly crisp? Bean noodle cake? Mung bean cake? Pea yellow? Jujube cake? Pine nut cake? Osmanthus sugar cake? Kou Kou cake? Ruyi cake? Meigong cake? Lotus paste cake..."

"Stop!" Su Xin raised her hand and looked at Su Jia whose face was flushed in an instant, "You gave me the name of the dish, and if you say so much, I can cook it all, can you eat it all up with your little belly? "

The names of these cakes that Su Jia mentioned are random, but there is one thing in common, that is, Su Xin knows everything, even if there are one or two that I don't understand, I can make it after hearing the names and thinking about it.

In the past ten years, I learned from my grandfather that I don’t know much about pastries from all over the country. When making pastries, I feel that there is no connection between different pastries at first, but after doing more, I will find that there is a connection inside, but the materials are different. It's just a combination of kneading techniques and baking methods.

"Second brother, you know it all!" After hearing Su Xin's words, Su Jia very cleverly discovered the meaning behind Su Xin's words, she was so excited that she almost jumped up.

"Pea yellow, I want to eat pea yellow! My second brother will make pea yellow tomorrow!" Su Jia took Su Xin's arm coquettishly, and the hand she held was Su Xin's right hand with chopsticks flipping pancakes.

Su Jia would definitely order Pea Yellow among the cakes whose names she knew, because Su Ruolan showed off a box of pastries in front of her in the twelfth lunar month of the previous year.

The box of pea yellow was said to be brought back by Su Changyuan from the provincial capital. When Su Ruolan held it in front of Su Jia, she emphasized that it was not a snack from the provincial capital, but Su Changyuan's friend brought it back from the capital all the way.

It's not that Su Jia has never tasted pastries in the provincial capital, because Tang Dong and Su Gaoping would go there occasionally. The few Su Jia tasted were similar to those in Chong'an County, but the ones in Beijing were quite different.

Su Jia still remembered that she wanted to take another look at the pea yellow, but Su Ruolan deliberately raised the box to prevent her from seeing it, as if she couldn't even take a look at the pastry.

So what does pea yellow look like? Su Jia only remembers that there is a little red on the top of the yellow, and she doesn't know what it tastes like. She never told the rest of the family about it, and she was worried that it would make everyone feel uncomfortable.

But at this moment, hearing from her second brother that she knew how to make pea yellow, Su Jia immediately asked for pea yellow.

"Pea Dou Huang has the ingredients to make." Su Xin glanced at the excited Su Jia, "If you want to eat, just be obedient, and if you hold your second brother and my arm, this pot of Jiuniang cake will burn .”

Su Jia belatedly let go of Su Xin. She couldn't restrain her joy, and ran out in a bouncing manner. While running, she thought about what Su Ruolan had to show off. Pea yellow is not unique to the capital. For dim sum, her second brother can make it!

This evening, the Jiuniang Cake received unanimous praise from everyone. It was the same as the Binghua Cake in the afternoon. Even Su Jia, who was not hungry, ate two before putting down his chopsticks.

The next day, Su Xin made pea yellow for Su Jia according to his promise.

In fact, pea yellow is somewhat similar to making red bean paste, which is to fry the bean paste in the beans, add sugar, and then cool and shape.

The difference is that when frying red bean paste, a lot of oil and sugar should be added to retain moisture, fluidity, and toughness, while pea yellow only needs to add a small amount of sugar to taste.

Today, I only planned to make pea yellow snacks. Su Xin simply soaked more dried peas. Anyway, making three or four catties and seven or eight catties is not much different for him. After a period of deliberate exercise and sugar pulling training , his strength is much stronger than when he first became "Su Xin".

I was so looking forward to the yellow peas. When Su Xin was cooking in the kitchen, Su Jia came to watch early. She couldn't help, so she stood on the stool and stirred the pot of beans with a spoon.

Su Jia is already ten years old, so it's not a problem to ask her to do some work, so Su Xin asked her to help stir the beans, so she has a sense of participation in making pastries.

After the beans were thoroughly boiled and sieved, Su Jia couldn't help when she needed to stir-fry the pea paste with a spatula, but she kept watching the thin bean paste in the pot become sticky little by little, and she didn't leave the whole process.

Seeing the little girl staring eagerly at the pea paste in the pot, Su Xin was a little puzzled. In his memory, eating pea paste was not very fashionable in Chong'an County. How could this child be so obsessed with pea paste: "Sister Jia Son, don't you think the process of second brother making pastries is boring?"

Su Xin was wearing a mask, which made his speech unclear, but Su Jia could understand.

Su Jia happily replied: "No, it's very interesting. Second brother, every time you turn over the peas, the shape of the peas in the pot is different."

Listening to Su Jia's words, Su Xin raised her eyebrows. She hadn't noticed that the little girl was interested in making pastries before, but she didn't know whether her interest was temporary or long-term. During this period of time, she could observe and persuade Eminem to let her do it. Take my little sister for a while.

Not only has Su Jia been interested in watching Su Xin do it, but she also asks: "Second brother, why do you keep flipping through?"

"Second brother, when the peas are fried to what extent can they be roasted in the oven or steamed in a steamer?"

"Hey, can it be eaten directly without steaming?"

……

As the pea paste in the pot gradually became viscous, thick, and finally became semi-solid, it became more and more difficult to stir fry, so Su Xin found a few flat squares with oil paper inside, poured the pea paste Put it into it, scrape the surface evenly, cover it with a thin layer of clean gauze and let it cool outside.

Su Xin still left a little bit of pea paste in the pot. He added the red pigmented syrup to this part and continued to stir-fry it for a while before pouring it into the bowl beside it. The bowl was covered with a thick layer of gauze to prevent the pea sofa from drying out. .

When the pea paste outside was completely cooled, Su Xin took it out with oiled paper, cut it into beautiful rhomboids, and put a little "goji berry" made of red pea paste in the middle of each piece.

The pea yellow made by Su Xin looked very cute. After Su Xin made it, Su Jia couldn't wait to take a piece and ate it. The pea yellow after waiting for several hours was really delicious!

Pea yellow has a unique fragrance of peas. Because Su Xin adds less sugar, there is only a very light sweetness in the aftertaste. The pastry made of this pure bean paste has a very delicate taste, which melts in the mouth and does not need to be chewed at all. .

The pea yellow that Su Xin made this time also made a few large boxes. In addition to their family members eating, Dahai and others who made sugar in Tang Ji's sugar workshop, and Tang Dong and others who sold sugar in the shop also had a share.

After hesitating for a while, Su Xin picked out the best cut pea yellows she had cut, and the decorated "goji berry" was also beautifully packaged in a small box, and placed neatly and full to prevent the The road was scattered, and Tang Dong was asked to find someone to run errands to Yaojiazhuangzi outside the city.
