MTL - Song Tan Jishi-Chapter 17 Shepherd's Purse Dumplings
Chapter 17 17. Shepherd's Purse Dumplings
The spring rain became heavier at night.
The sound of the rain is pattering, quickly moistening the soil in the silent night, and the cold water vapor and wisps of white mist permeate the mountains, forests, ponds and fields, making the blue color more intense and the young leaves stretching...
When it was dawn, the rain stopped, but the weather was still gloomy.
Song Sancheng brought some firewood from outside, stuffed it into the stove, and clapped his hands: "What are you eating this morning?"
After a few days of busy work, I was free last night and today. Ulan has been sleeping soundly recently, smelling the fresh air, and feeling very happy.
"Let's eat dumplings, the shepherd's purse was so fresh last night."
The emerald green shepherd's purse is chopped, mixed with slightly grainy minced meat, wrapped in soft dough, and mixed with a vinegar sauce...
Fresh.
The fresh tongue is about to swallow.
Song Sancheng drank two bowls by himself.
Qiao Qiao even ate a small three bowls, and then drank half a bowl of dumpling soup: "Mom, it's delicious!"
"Half a child, eat poor old man" is really not a lie. I made it last night. Ulan was thinking that he would not be able to finish eating it in the refrigerator and make it for breakfast later, but he did not expect that everyone's appetite has increased during this period. It was destroyed.
Except Song Tan.
Fresh is fresh, and there are impurities. Song Tan ate a bowl under this mixed taste, just like eating a bowl of fragrant rice mixed with sand.
Every time she eats, she swears that she must grow the rations.
Wu Lan saw that she was still thin, and wondered at the moment: "Did you starve your stomach from working outside? Why do you still have such a small appetite after working hard every day?"
Song Tan thought to himself: It's not that she has a bad stomach, it's just that she has a bad mouth.
But if you have to pick and choose wild vegetables, her mother will probably roll her eyes and scold her: "You just eat too much of the good ones, and you are used to it."
So she changed the subject: "Yesterday's wild vegetables were delicious, right? After this rain, they must be even more delicious!"
Are wild vegetables delicious?
Then why is it not delicious!
The green Malan head with red stalks was blanched and chopped, and then minced meat.
Then break up a duck egg, add some cooking wine, salt and monosodium glutamate, and use a colander to fry the egg into shreds in a pan.
Next, stir-fry chopped green onion and ginger, then pour in the minced meat, Malan head and duck eggs...
Crispy and crispy, moist and refreshing, can't it be delicious?
Blanch the remaining watercress, add salt and monosodium glutamate and mix well.
Then put the peppercorns in the oil and stir-fry slowly until they are fragrant, then adjust the soy sauce, **** and garlic juice, sugar, monosodium glutamate, pepper oil, chopped peppers, and chopped green onions, and add all the tender slices of blanched watercress, like this mix…
Suck!
Crisp and tender, spicy and delicious.
Served with wild onion crucian carp soup and scrambled eggs, the family of four ate up yesterday's basket of wild vegetables.
Then I chopped shepherd's purse and made dumplings when I was full.
Now thinking about it, I feel greedy.
Yesterday’s wild vegetables were so delicious, today’s wild vegetables should be more delicious after being inspired by spiritual energy, right?
Song Tan thought about his first business: "Mom, how much do you think I will sell for a catty tomorrow morning?"
Don't look at the stinging of insects in early March, in fact, the green vegetables have not yet risen, and this is the time when the green and yellow are not harvested.
Lettuce is bitter, black and white cabbage is old, and yellow cabbage is even less sweet. If you go to the supermarket, you can start with ten or eight yuan for any greenhouse vegetables.
Ulan is well-versed in running the house, but she has zero experience in selling wild vegetables. After thinking about it, "Why don't you pay ten yuan a catty?"
There is no reason, just to settle accounts.
This price is really not expensive for today's vegetable market, but it is wild vegetables after all. Ulan knows in her heart that everyone in the city loves to eat them, but her childhood experience still makes her subconsciously not care.
Therefore, the ten dollars are very unfounded.
Song Tan thought about it, ten yuan would do.
Wild vegetables are not easy to eat, don’t look at a lot of them, they will form a small ball after being boiled in a pot. She believes that the quality nourished by spiritual energy is absolutely good, but for the first time in business, everyone has to taste it before talking about it later.
"That's okay, it's only ten yuan!"
Song Sancheng discussed: "This year's shepherd's purse is really good, why don't you make some dumplings and freeze it! Otherwise, start ordering bacteria in two days, and eat whole when you get busy."
In two days, when we are ready to order the bacteria, Song Sancheng discussed with Song Tan that this job does not need to be done very quickly, so why not invite some old men and old ladies to do it.
"They are old, and their hand movements are not necessarily slow. If you are slow, don't be disgusted... There are only so many households left in our village. They are old, and they just sit there every day and doze off, and they look miserable. .”
"Just call me over, don't mention the money, just do it slowly, let's buy some meat and help take it back after we're done, let's help if there's anything else, and your grandma will help you watch while you're working... Do you think it's okay?"
Okay.
Why not?
Song Tan fully agreed.
Now that the fungus and tremella are sprouting, there is no rush...the net around her hasn't been stretched yet!
Again, they are all from the village, who do they ask for? Her grandparents have also become more and more depressed in the past few years. It is better to have something to do than to be in a daze.
only…
Song Tan looked at his small yard which was a motorcycle and a flower bed: "Our yard is a bit small."
Spotting the bacteria needs to press the bacteria into the small holes made in advance on the chestnut trunk. The tree trunk is a bit long and heavy, but it can be piled up in the yard, but it is always inconvenient to walk around.
Song Sancheng thought for a while: "I'll talk to your grandfather later, and I'll put it in his yard. It's spacious there. Your grandma is in charge of cooking, and your mother is going to help... There are only eight or nine old people in the village, and they don't eat much. Our family just take the rice noodle dish over there."
The family of four sorted things out (Qiao Qiao was in charge of humming), and felt that everything was in place. Song Tan saw that it was almost nine o'clock, so he hurriedly greeted Qiao Qiao:
"Go, take a big basket to dig shepherd's purse!"
By the way, let's see how many wild vegetables were spawned by yesterday's aura.
Climbing up the hillside familiarly again, Qiaoqiao was stunned.
He opened his mouth: ⊙o⊙) Wow!"
"Sister, it's so green!"
Isn’t it so green?
Wild onions grow wildly in clumps, as thick as layers of hair, occupying the edge of the entire mountain slope.
The Malan heads, which were only enough for a plate yesterday, are now competing to protrude their emerald green heads. The green and red stems are crowded together, for fear that people will not be able to grab a plate.
Shepherd's purse... not to mention shepherd's purse, which grows densely in the cracks, and the leaves are so tender that they seem to be watering.
You can smell the strong fragrance of green grass before it is picked.
It forms a strong contrast and contrast with the branches of the nearby forest that have just sprouted green leaf buds.
Song Tan was actually mentally prepared and confident. But at this moment, she was still in a trance, relying on Qiao Qiao to dig a basket of fresh and tender shepherd's purse back.
When I went back, I took a look around the pond by the way.
very good.
The densely packed watercress and purslane cover the land piece by piece, growing crazily like hormones, and the ground and water can’t be seen by the pond!
She suppressed the joy in her heart—
Now these dishes are too embarrassing for Reiki!
Not today!
Green vegetables in early spring are indeed very expensive, and Chinese New Year is even more expensive.
Refer to "Mountain New Special Dishes" for recipes
It’s especially interesting to write this kind of thing when it’s meal time, and my saliva is drooling.
In fact, most of the wild vegetables are very grassy, so they should not be too light, otherwise they will not taste good.
Of course, it mainly depends on the craftsmanship...
We will officially sell vegetables tomorrow!
